The Inevitable Excess DLC was initially playing with the idea that we want to provide player with more content to play on the highest possible level. The Wildcards was designed as an DLC that revolves around a new class and companion (we tend to separate such experiences from those that focus on the additions to the story). We liked how DLCs for the Kingmaker were received and wanted to stick to the same idea – play around the original game, providing slightly different versions of it for different audiences. Is it something intended or coincidental?Īlexander Mishulin: Some of it is intended, some coincidental and some even just seems like the same formula but is not. A story-focused expansion (Wildcards & Inevitable Excess respectively), a side-story featuring a different group of characters (Varnhold’s Lot & Through the Ashes) and an endless dungeon (Beneath the Stolen Lands & DLC#3).
Gamespace:Kingmaker and Wrath seem to share the same basic formula when it comes to the DLC. We are trying to experiment with the game tone, structure and try to provide an experience a little bit different from the original game. All the DLCs are designed as separate small games, based on the original one. Gamespace:Can you tell us about your general approach to the development of the base game and the DLCs? Have you planned for the three DLCs and settled on what they will be about from the very beginning?Īlexander Mishulin: We designed the base game without any regards to the future DLCs, it is a complete experience as we envisioned it. We had the pleasure of chatting with Creative Director Alexander Mishulin and Lead Narrative Designer Alexander Kamzolov and asking them some questions about what the game has in store for players.Īlexander Mishulin: Hello, my name is Alexander Mishulin and I am the Creative Director at Owlcat Games. Now, with the approaching arrival of Through the Ashes, the second DLC out of the three announced, it’s time to look forward and learn everything there is to know about the new addition – and, perhaps, about the previous DLC Inevitable Excess as well. What is more important, the amount of epic or a heartfelt personal story? Give it a read to find out. A few months after the release of cRPG Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, we had an opportunity to chat with Creative Director Alexander Mishulin about the development of the game: Mythic Paths, the ever-changing landscape of Alushinyrra, player choices, additional management elements like the Kingdom/Crusade and more.
