Killer Instinct Textual Stream Q&A Session 06/05/15

Here’s the complete question and answers session from this week’s Killer Instinct Textual Stream

Andodyne – Are all characters going to play into the same story or will certain characters have their own plotlines.

Kraig – Season 2 Story: Rivals, focuses on each character and their rival. This involves the entire cast (S1 and S2), though they all part of the same universe, obviously.

Cherry Demon Yung – Could you add more options to interact with your Shadows? I want to pet my Shadow Glacius on the head and give him food.

Kraig – So do I!

Wanda Maximoff – When will we see a push to get the game re-reviewed?

Kraig – That’s up to the press. Ask them about it!

Killer Ixmix – Are there any game modes that you are interested in adding to KI or are you done with new game modes.

Kraig – Never done with new game modes. There are so many things that we’d like to do. This season we focused greatly on Leagues, Shadows and Story Mode.

Cinder – What parts will cutscenes be used in? I assume it’s only for the beginning, rival fight and ending.

Kraig – You assumed correctly. And loading screen images too!

KI Prime: If IGS had known what it would be like developing the new Killer Instinct, would IGS still do it?

Kraig – Absolutely. We love this game and its fans! Really fun project to work on. We’re honored.

MR. X 2pi Iron Galaxy believes in the importance of a good story in a game of struggle to consolidate the franchise mythology and new audiences?

Kraig – I think that our joint KI Team knows how important it is to world-build and create a complete mythos around these characters. Adam Isgreen has been very consistent and upfront about that. This is one reason why we tried very hard to add content to Season 1 Story Mode and really flesh out Season 2 Story Mode more.

Rakdosz – Are we able to spend our Shadow Points on something other than challenging other Shadows?

Kraig – That’s the plan for now (That and leaderboard rankings) But the system is definitely extendable. What would YOU like to see?

Daz 3600 – Are there Achievements for Story Mode?

Kraig – Yes! Here’s the list:

Rivaled! – Complete Season 2 Story Mode
Savior of Humanity – Finish Story Mode With ARIA
Rising Sun – Finish Story Mode With Cinder
The Eternal Child – Finish Story Mode With Hisako
A New Destiny Forged – Finish Story Mode With Aganos
Appetite for Destruction – Finish Story Mode With Riptor
Lord of Chaos – Finish Story Mode With Kan-Ra
The Night Guard – Finish Story Mode With Maya
Back On Top – Finish Story Mode With TJ Combo
