iNero Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) Draugen is set at the coast of Norway in the 1920s. It supports VR systems like Oculus Rift. Release is scheduled for 2015. Whats means "Draugen"? A draugr, draug or (Icelandic) draugur (original plural draugar), or dreygur (Faroese), or draugen (Norwegian, Swedish and Danish, meaning "the draug"), also known as aptrganga ("afturganga" in modern Icelandic) ( "again-walker", i.e., "revenant" or "one who walks after death") is an undead creature from Norse mythology, a subset of Germanic mythology. The Old Norse meaning of the word is a ghost, and older literature makes clear distinctions between sea-draugar and land-draugar. Draugar live in their graves, often guarding treasure buried with them in their burial mound. They are animated corpses - unlike ghosts they have a corporeal body with similar physical abilities as in life.The Old English cognate is dréag "apparition, ghost". The Irish word dréag or driug meaning "portent, meteor" is borrowed from either Old English or the Old Norse. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draugr Edited March 31, 2014 by iNero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnceAgainYoungFitzpatrick Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I knew that jump scare was coming at the end. Anyway, didn't get to see that much, so can't say for sure if it looks good. But, it is interesting that it's open world. Has there ever been an open world survival game? Hopefully the graphics don't suffer either due to the game being OR supported.

I only played the Demo and it was pretty open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanBurnsRed Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Was Alan Wake Open World? I only played the Demo and it was pretty open. Not really. Speaking of which, I should finish that game one of these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
