Overlord: the forging video

A little forging is restful for the mind, sire. It helps clear your head for the evil deeds ahead.

When your little henchman says it clears your head, they didn’t say anything about the sacrificing of minions to get the job done. That’s right, folks. In Triumph Studios‘ Overlord (PC, Xbox 360), forging is less a matter of getting the right mold for the job than it is summoning a lot of minions to jump into molten metal to sweeten the creation with magical power.

Not only are they willing to jump to their deaths, they seem happy to jump into molten metal to aid their master. Sometimes, you have to wonder if your minions aren’t the stupidest things on earth, but at least they do their jobs with gusto. Without further ado, here’s a forge trailer to show you exactly what we mean. If you’re interested in learning more, feel free to check our impressions of the demo as well.
