The basics first: there are six attributes - Strength, Constitution, Agility, Dexterity, Intelligence and Charisma. In order to explain the stats concept, it is necessary to go into detail on three key aspects - attributes, skills and talents. In the second part, you'll learn how combat works in our game. In the first part of this diary entry, we're going to take a look at the stats system. Today, I'd like to give you some insight on the game mechanics. In our first diary, I elaborated on why we decided to develop The Fall - The Last Days of Gaia, how it was planned and the setting.
As a result, we're very pleased the team has agreed to let us follow development in a series of diaries that continues with this one. It seems futile to hope - or is it?

Clean water and good food are hard to find and even more difficult to protect. Disease has once again become a deadly fact of daily life. The average temperature has risen by some 10.5 degrees centigrade, destroying entire ecosystems and creating a sand-covered planet constantly whipped by hot, dry winds of hurricane-like intensity. Indescribably powerful storms have leveled the cities and decimated the population.

However, with each new instance, the resistance to them based on moral issues weakened, gradually but inexorably diminishing until it was little more than an echo of a distant and largely forgotten past.

By the year 2062, the concept of humanity had become blurred.
