    [​IMG]OnlySP has an extensive interview about The Waylanders.

    So what is the game? It is clearly an RPG on an epic scale, and one that will be crammed with rich lore and a plethora of options for the player. Sergio explained that the story is based on the brothers' homeland, Galicia. "Waylanders was born because we travelled around Galicia, as well as a good part of England and Ireland," explained Sergio. "There is a very good background and history. It's a very beautiful environment. Our land is very special because it is known as Celtic, but it is not one of the Celtic nations, yet we still have a lot of Celtic legends here. There is a lot of magic and mystery in the legends, so we thought a lot about what we can discuss in an RPG. Obviously it's a very fresh mythology."

    Fernando expanded upon that basis with some more historical context about the medieval setting. "We knew about the story, where it was going to be set and that it was going to use Lebor Gabála Érenn, an Irish book that talks about how the kingdom of Ireland was created in around 500 BCE. It's a story that tells us about how people from Galicia went to Ireland, so we thought it would be cool to look at that. It is a story that certainly hasn't been told in video games before, and even hasn't been touched by cinema, and it involved a lot of magic, a lot of mythology, a lot of fantastical creatures. We thought it was something that would be good to explore be in an RPG, and that's when we began to grow our idea that could be the perfect idea. The perfect story for the game."
