Here we are mentioning “Sargon” again, and still, you might find yourself asking questions like: what makes him worthy to journey Mount Qaf?
Why does he look so angry all the time?
Why is he shirtless?
Okay, Okay, let’s see if we can get our developers to answer some of these questions.
Luckily, Some time ago we sat down with our developers to discuss the making of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, and what better way to start than with our one and only Sargon?
In this first dev dive, our developers talk about designing Sargon – and why armor is more than optional to him.
To see the full mini-dev dive click here.
As our Senior Art Director says, first when you see Sargon you see a young warrior who is very sharp and a bit rough around the edges. With his smooth movements, sharp fighting style, and attitude he needs light equipment on his side. So, that’s why he doesn’t wear any armor.
And, as Game Director Mounir Radi says, you don’t need armor when you are super confident on never being hit. (they must have not taken into account me playing as Sargon when designing him. 😆)
But, the game is not only about how Sargon fights.
Every superhero has weaknesses.
Sargons story is one of a warrior, and his journey evolving and growing into a hero with heart.
