A loot-based game like Godfall<\/em><\/strong> lives or dies depending on how it balances its myriad customization options with the effort required to unlock them and their long-term value. Unfortunately, there has been a concerning lack of information about Godfall<\/em>\u2019s loot system<\/a>, as developer Counterplay Games has been focusing more on showing off the game\u2019s combat and world ahead of launch. The good news, however, is that the developer has finally remedied that with a deep dive into the game\u2019s approach to character progression.<\/p>\n

IGN released a new video today after speaking with Counterplay\u2019s senior technical producer Richard Heyne. It offers several first looks at the upcoming looter-slasher<\/a>‘s\u00a0inventory menus, as well as a new skill grid where players will be able to further customize their Valorian Knights. In the process, Heyne also explained how the game is being designed to be \u201cthe tinkerer\u2019s dream,\u201d allowing players to experiment with their loot and character builds and \u201csee the impact immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n

The main goal that Counterplay is aiming for with the loot system is giving players plenty of ways to mix and match their arsenal of Valorplates<\/a>, weapons, augments, and more without holding up Godfall<\/em>\u2019s fast-paced gameplay. For instance, crafting will be as streamlined as possible while also allowing for multiple upgrade options for loot, including leveling up a piece of loot and even boosting it to the next rarity level. This will ensure that if a player finds a favorite piece of gear among the game\u2019s large selection, they\u2019ll be able to keep it with them throughout the entire campaign.<\/p>\n

This mentality also extends to the skill grid, which IGN notes is separate from the constellation-like skill trees that Counterplay has already shown. The grid is being designed for \u201cmaximal flexibility,\u201d which means Godfall<\/em><\/a> players will be able to carry skill points from one Valorplate to another and respec builds instantly. This will keep them from being tied down to any particular playstyle based on their initial upgrade choices.<\/p>\n
