Q: What ideas have you implemented to give the game an 'evil' feel? Do the Rogue Isles have hospitals run by villains, or is it a mad back alley doctor, etc.?
A: There are hospitals, although they are certainly less charming than those found in CoH. As an overall, we've worked to give the Rogue Isles a harsher look. The world is gritty, unpleasant and dangerous as befits a villainous stronghold. There is more action on the street -- gun battle and beatdowns -- along with interfering heroes active in the corners and back alleys. The whole world is grimier.
We've added a lot of touches on top of this. Costume changes are handled by the Facemaker at a less than savory location. There are brokers who provide you with info about interesting things going on in town. There are new types of missions including bank robberies. There are casinos and nightclubs. All in all it's not a bright shining place.
They've also posted two exclusive images to go along with the interview.
