Planescape: Torment - Enhanced Edition - Let's Play | Conversations with Deionarra | Episode 3
4Welcome to this Planescape Torment Enhanced Edition Let's Play! I hope you will enjoy it guys, I sure am... Planescape Torment Enhanced edition (PTEE) is a dialogue driven rpg in the infinity engine style, now enhanced :) In this third Lets play episode (E3) we continue our way through the Mortuary, this time we meet Deionarra, a ghostly image of a woman we may have once loved...
Deionarra
Deionarra is a dead woman who followed one of the Nameless One's past incarnations, the Practical Incarnation, and loved him fiercely and beyond all reason. Deionarra's spirit now haunts the first floor of the Mortuary.
The Practical Incarnation, calculating that Deionarra's intense feelings for him would prevent her spirit from moving to one of the Outer Planes upon death, intended to sacrifice her in the Fortress of Regrets so that her tormented soul could act as his scout in that place where no living thing could survive for long.
The plan partially succeeded: though the Practical Incarnation was ultimately slain along with Deionarra, the player character's incarnation can obtain information and help from her spirit.
The Nameless one
The being now known only as The Nameless One is one of the closest things the multiverse has to an immortal. Precisely how long he has lived or how many reincarnations he has had is unknown, but judging from some of the contacts he has made (Lum the Mad, among others) he is probably at least several thousand years old, and a former "incarnation" notes that he has died several thousand times.
The Mortuary
The Mortuary is a large, circular black building located in the Hive district of the city of Sigil. It is the main headquarters of the Dustmen faction, who collect the city's corpses in order to either cremate them, or raise the ones they bought the rights to as an undead workforce.
Planescape Torment Enhanced Edition is a technically updated version of the original Planescape Torment, while the story remains the same. There are innumerable bug fixes though, as well as enhanced graphics, new shiny features such as zoom and more enhancements like that. Now the game is available both for PC, and for tablets, which is great for casual play. This episode 1 of Planescape Torment Enhanced Edition Let's Play uses the pc version though.
Enhanced Edition Planescape: Torment is primarily story-driven and combat is not prominently featured. The protagonist, known as The Nameless One, is an immortal who has lived many lives but has forgotten all about them, even forgetting his own name. This Planescape Torment Enhanced Edition Let's Play focuses on his journey through the city of Sigil and other planes to reclaim his memories of these previous lives. Several characters in the game may join The Nameless One on his journey, and most of these characters have encountered him in the past or have been influenced by his actions in some way.
The original Planescape Torment was made by BioWare in 1999, and had only moderate comercial success. The game itself however was, in my opinion, the peak of BioWare’s Advanced Dungeons and Dragons series. Following the success of Baldur’s Gate Enhanced edition Beamdog have gone and updated Planescape Torment as well, and now, 18 years after the original release, we have Planescape Torment Enhanced Edition in our hands, which feels truly exciting to me.
