- Add talents to the game?
- Talents are coded in C++. They usually override or change the gameplay rules in such a unique way, that it's not viable to create reusable templates and make them data driven.
- Change all sounds in the game?
- We use Wwise and sounds have to be added and processed in Wwise.
