What I'm afraid of it being is "DARK" in terms understood by the guys that Will Wright and Ocean Quiggly had to smack down from putting sneakers on the Spore creatures. I.E., it'll be dark on the level of a Disney villain-song.
I'm waiting to see it though. An RPG relying on body-customization has a ring going for it.
Disney villains are diabolically evil and more unrepentable than villains from most other sources.
Aladdin? Jafar is a dick who is destroying Mesopotamia in a bid to control the entire universe.
Snow White? The witch wants to murder a little girl because she's prettier than her. No other reason. Just that.
Rescue Rangers? Just watch that movie, there is nothing pleasant about the villains in any way.
The Lion King? Scar is the worst king ever. Also, he's a dick who murders little kids (or tries to, anyway).
Atlantis? This is even worse because the villains spend two thirds of the movie being best buddies with the hero and then betray him out of malicious greed, triggering a short war (of sorts) where dozens of innocent people die.
Disney Villains are more hardcore, evil, and terrifying than anything in any of the video games I have played.
