What was the plan for the Kraken Sea zone that was west of Praag?
THE KRAKEN! Oh man, we lol'd so much at Greg Wickham's best pirate voice saying "NO ONE WILL SURVIVE THE KRAKEN! MUAHAHAHAHAHAH!"
...yeah, we never quite got that past paper and into production.
I don't think any art was developed or anything, but it was supposed to be a dock-side PQ in Praag. Giant tentacles come up out of the water and begin pulling a boat under, you defeat the tentacles, and then up comes the head of the giant, hideous beast. THAT would have been a great PQ!
Incidently, I recorded a TON of place-holder VO work for Orcs, Trolls, Dwarves, Giants, and a dozen non-speaking creatures. The VO stuff was changed out when they got the final, hollywood-talent to record it, but I believe many of the animal sounds I did remain. What're the yeti looking mobs with the white fur? I nearly popped a lung doing all of their attack/death sounds. ...good times.
