"Star Wars 1313": A Descent Into Dante's Inferno

We're going to start referencing Milton's "Paradise Lost" here in a minute if you're not careful.

This most recent developer diary video is so chock full of literary allusions, I don't know where to start. Are we descending into Dante's Inferno, or perhaps, we are the Morlocks from H.G. Wells' Time Machine, cursed to live without the light of the sun? Maybe we are Odysseus, venturing into Hades, to seek the council of the dead?

Whatever flavor of literary spin you want to toss onto Star Wars 1313, the game itself is shaping up to be for real serious.

Watch the video, and learn a little something about the underbelly of Coruscant, I know I've learned a few things.
