Crucially, Redfall does still let you do that, and there’s a lot of weird stuff to find out there in the fairgrounds and forests of Redfall. The playable heroes only have a few surface-level snippets of their own dialogue, and it’s a little odd that the only characters to get any notable development in the game are the villains, each of whom is maniacally obsessed around a particular gimmick.īut the main story has never been the main attraction in Arkane games-it’s always been more about the weird things you discover through a combination of play and exploration in a strange and unique game world. Redfall’s story isn’t the star here by any means, and the human characters you hang out with in the bases will do little to indulge your narrative curiosity. The thrust of Redfall’s story is that a small circle of power-hungry people working under the auspices of medicine and wellness tap into an unfathomable power that turns them into super-vamps, and much of the region into regular vamps oh, and they eclipsed the sun too and blocked everyone in the region using a water-wall that I never really got to the bottom of understanding.
