Infamous: Second Son wants players to enjoy being evil
Whether you walk the path of the righteous or the sinister, one thing is the same in both of Infamous: Second Son's karmic paths: Sucker Punch wants you, like protagonist Delsin, to really enjoy using your powers.
In a recent hands-on demo, we were only working with Delsin's two currently-revealed powers: smoke and neon. Absorbing smoke lets you harness the power of fire and fumes, while absorbing light from neon signs and street lights lets Delsin whack enemies with light swords and energy shots. Being limited to the two didn't feel like a limitation at all; there are many different variants these powers could take, giving us the tools to do everything from punching out individual enemies to clearing a swath of them cramping our style to running and gunning through areas indiscriminately picking off pedestrians.
