In a creative bit of marketing, Torment: Tides of Numenera developer inXile Entertainment and publisher Techland have released a beyond cool interactive video that lets players take on one of the upcoming classic RPG’s dynamic quests. Check out the video below, which is recommended to be watched on desktop for the full experience:
Creative Lead Colin McComb takes the wheel and narrates the experience which takes you to the bustling location of Circus Minor. NPCs named El-Jinto and Canadu have caught a beast and are displaying it for money while someone nearby spies. Approaching the spy, you are presented with a choice and that is where the video’s series of branching decisions begins. The quest can unfold in one of 7 different outcomes showing off the game’s dynamic dialogue and massive amount of choice they’ve put into the game.

At the end your decisions impact your Tide affinity, which is a sort of morality meter that affects how the game reacts to you. Ultimately you will weave your way through the enormous amount of story, forging your own tale while attempting to answer the game’s singular question, “What does one life matter?”
Torment: Tides of Numenera releases on February 28th for PS4, Xbox One and PC and is one of our Top 20 RPGs of 2017. Check out our preview and developer interview to learn more about this highly anticipated follow up to Planescape: Torment. Be sure to keep checking with us for more!
