FEATURES With The Banner Saga 3 once again a huge hit on Kickstarter, reaching over double its target with a total of $416,986 raised, no doubt fans will be able to keep track of what Stoic is planning as the development process rolls on.Banner Saga 3 is the epic conclusion to a sweeping viking saga six years in the making. Stoic has been keeping communication open with the series' fans, as shown by the open Discord channel that the developer has created. It’s very hard to do in video games, especially when you’re pulling together a large team in AAA, to have really big branching decisions We’re very cognisant of why people like our game, and it’s that decisions really do matter, and we’re not going to let that ball drop in The Banner Saga 3.
Jorgensen believes that the independent development scene improves the ability to keep these changes coming, and Stoic is in no rush to change that now. Both The Banner Saga and The Banner Saga 2 showcased how a more flexible plan can lead to some powerful - and sometimes shocking - plot points based on player choices. Part of this certainly comes from Stoic's place as an independent developer. Because not something that’s structured and set in stone, such as "this decision will be a big one, this decision will be a small one." We’re constantly balancing it as we go, grabbing bits and pieces from Banner Saga 2, Banner Saga 1, and peppering them in to Banner Saga 3. As we’re going, we are constantly pulling in decisions, and I think that’s probably why it feels kind of natural – certainly to us as we’re writing it. During the writing process, Jorgensen states that the small team of the studio is all too happy to put out ideas to tie the trilogy together into a cohesive and emotional story. With The Banner Saga 3, however, this is certainly not going to be the case.Ī lot of this will apparently come down to the more natural way in which Stoic plans out the branching pathways of The Banner Saga. Many titles fall into the trap of promising huge changes based on the decisions made in previous releases, but all too often this ends up being something of a false promise.
This would certainly make a change from what gamers expect. There's a couple that seem small, but you realise in Saga 3: "holy cow, I had no idea that this would be a large decision this far on!" There are many decisions you make in Saga 1 that affect Saga 3.
As it turns out, players should brace themselves for some changes. This reveal comes courtesy of Arnie Jorgensen from Stoic, who spoke with Game Rant about what to expect from the upcoming final part of the acclaimed series.
