Cel And Back: First Templar Celian Trailer

Last week we had a look at Roland, playable character #1 in upcoming co-operative swordstravaganza The First Templar. This week it's the turn of Celian, who I think I prefer for much the same reasons as I liked Isaac in the first Dead Space; a grim kind of practicality. Celian seems to spend as much time stabbing people as he does kicking them, grabbing them, pushing them over or just belting them with his shield. If he just had a move where he picked up a nearby stone and chucked it at their eye I'd be in love. See what I mean after the jump.

Hey, some of those animations are a bit good, aren't they? Looks like the guys at Haemimont have learned a thing or two about making trailers since Roland.

These days, you can find him talking about tabletop board games over on Shut Up And Sit Down, or doing proper grown-up journalism with the folks at People Make Games.
