Atlantica Online News - The Van Gogh Dungeon

Posted by Jon Wood on Aug 25, 2009  | 3 comments in our forums

The team from NDoors' Atlantica Online has sent along another developer journal focusing on an area of this game. This week, they give us a look at the new Van Gogh dungeon, focusing on the works of the famous painter.

Atlantica Online

In the next major content update, we introduce a brand new dungeon heavily influenced by the great, yet troubled Post-Impressionist artist, Vincent Van Gogh (be forewarned though, it will contain some spoilers). And it is the tragic-hero nature of his curious, yet influential life that we want to share with our players, not only because it makes great content, but because it also adds to the plethora of historical events in Atlantica Online. While a lot of the quests have been historical fiction thus far, much of the events in this dungeon are based on actual occurrences—like his letters to his brother Theo, as a matter of fact. So it is a very different approach as players will find themselves learning about an influential figure through an uncommon medium.

 Van Gogh was Dutch, the dungeon should be outside Amsterdam, not Paris =P

Looks very cool though.

Most of his painting career was in France at least, so it probably is more appropriate.

 

That said, as much as I like Atlantica, I have to wonder if I'll be able to do it (and how many people will, without shelling out a ton of money).  I'm 116 and getting my rear kicked doing the 112 level quests (against 119 mobs).

Because the game stops giving out gear boxes as drops after level 105, gear past it is very, very expensive.
