THE BANNER SAGA 2 CHARACTERS PS4

Stopping in towns and villages sometimes gives you the chance to buy supplies or rest to improve morale and heal the wounded. The amount of people you have is important, from fighters and varl to defend the caravan to clansmen to forage for food, the more people you have the more food you’ll be needing on your journey. Your caravan is still making its was across the land in the hope of finding safety, or at least somewhere to make a stand. The game continues in the same vein as the original in gameplay as well as story.

There is a recap option in the main menu as well so playing the original isn’t a necessity if you’d rather skip it for some reason. Your decisions carry over from the first game but if you don’t have a save file you can start the game afresh and the game simply asks you to choose between one of two characters. The Banner Saga 2 starts at chapter eight so is a direct sequel which continues the stories of the characters from the first game. You followed multiple caravans travelling to what they hoped to be safety making tough calls regarding the members of your caravan, food and supplies and the enemy. The Banner Saga was set in a Viking-inspired fantasy setting with giants (varl), humans and the Dredge, an enemy of seemingly infinite number flooding across the land. Have Stoic built and improved upon the very promising original?įor the uninitiated Stoic are a group of ex-BioWare employees who wanted to create an adult story similar to Game of Thrones where decisions actually make a difference, combined with tactical RPG gameplay. The original was a very good game with excellent presentation, meaningful decisions but the gameplay didn’t particularly change from the beginning of the game to the end.

The PC version was released a couple of years prior to that but this sequel was only released on PC in April and PS4 owners have got it now within a few months.
