Ronin

From the author:
Many of today's horrors refer to the reality that we know well and make it disturbed in some way - the world we know suddenly turns upside down and becomes different. For example "Resident Evil" or other games about zombies, which force us to confront that what we know; or "Silent Hill", in which a quiet town gets transformed into a psychological carnage. Furthermore, a lot of horrors makes us face the very unknown future; the fact that other life forms may be hiding somewhere far away - like "Alien", or treats about the mystery of still unexplored lands such as Antarctica - like "The Thing". Horrors can also lead us into the darkness of the oceans, which happens in "Cthulhu Mythology".
Is it possible, however, to create a horror that would remain in the atmosphere of the Middle Ages, Antiquity or fantasy? Well ... the fantasy genre itself allows many things and has accustomed us to demons, vampires, or other beings that are not intended to scare us, but to be a part of the presented world. How many demons have we killed in "Diablo", or how long have we explored the entire vampire universe in "Legacy of Kain" or "Vampire the Masquerade - Redemption". Were we scared while playing, though? Well... not necessarily. So is it possible to create a horror in that sort of vibes, knowing that the player has already become accustomed to certain norms? It seems to me that this is a rather difficult task; specifically, to create a horror in medieval/ancient/fantasy atmosphere, as opposed to present day/sci-fi. And it's especially hard to do so in RPG maker! However, I decided to take on this task and try to create a horror game which takes place in medieval times, which themselves are abstract to many of us... and so in RPG maker. How will I do? I don't know, probably not well, but I'll try!
I do not expect any major succes of the game. I focus mainly on the atmosphere and story, but I don't see this project as something that will make a "WOW" effect. Just... another game of mine.
