Dark is a stealth action role-playing video game developed by Realmforge Studios and published by Kalypso Media, released on July 9, 2013. It was officially announced on May 4, 2012. A playable version of the game was presented at the 2012 Role Play Convention in Cologne, Germany and the E3 2012.The game follows the story of Eric Bane, a newly turned vampire suffering from amnesia. He learns that his transformation is not complete and that, if he does not drink the blood of his sire, he will mutate into a mindless ghoul. In order to avoid being such a foul creature, he receives missions to drink ancient vampires' blood. However, an angel in Eric's view appears to guide him to the righteous path, and ease intolerable pain that comes from not drinking appropriate blood as it disappears. With a question of this vision, he tries to recover his deleted memories and his true-self 'vampire.'The gameplay of Dark is based on stealth combat. Eric has many supernatural vampiric 'skills' at his disposal; he can use Shadow Leap to quickly teleport to different areas and to perform stealth finishers, make himself temporarily invisible, see in the dark and slow down time. His abilities are linked to a certain amount of 'blood points' which are used up each time Eric uses a skill. He can drink blood from his enemies to restore his health and blood points.Not to be confused with the Netflix original Dark (2017). | |

Take That, Critics!: In the basement of the Sanctuary, you can find a "Wanted!" Poster for someone wanted for "Severe case of games journalism". The bottom of the poster includes a notice stating "If you see this criminal, Lethal force is authorised. Shoot on sight." This notice is placed between two Realmforge Studios logos. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
Dark (Video Game) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: The game explains that since Eric's blood was drained by a vampire and he then died, he's a half-vampire and needs to drink the blood of the vampire that killed him. While the game later explains that Eric was specially created by M-17 and no longer needs to try to find the vampire that bit him, Eric drank blood from and killed an unknown number of people in order to fuel his vampire powers. Will those guys become vampires too? Are they going to turn into ghouls? | |

Protagonist-Centered Morality: It doesn't matter who the guards are working for, Eric will devour them. Mind you, the guards' ambient dialogue suggests they're perfectly aware they work for vampires and turn a blind eye to them killing the innocent. | |

Friendly Neighborhood Vampire | |
Dark (Video Game) / int_982b6570 | comment |
Friendly Neighborhood Vampire: The Sanctuary vampires seem to just want to make money with their club, play music, and not hurt anyone. Averted with Eric Bane himself as he has a wholly self motivation (don't become a mindless ghoul) and murders a whole army of guards to get to the vampires he intends to devour. Played straight when he shows the willingness to rescue the Sanctuary vampires from M17. | |

Dark (Video Game) / int_9b3c14cb | comment |
Van Helsing Hate Crimes: M17 is a massively well funded vampire hunting organization that creates Eric Bane as a weapon against Steiner, a vampire who is too powerful for them to defeat alone. They immediately go after the Sanctuary vampires afterward, despite the fact they're completely harmless. | |

Foreshadowing | |
Dark (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Before going into Steiner's club, the game's dialogue emphasizes the upcoming sunrise (referencing how vampires are Weakened by the Light), and mentions how older vampires are particularly vulnerable to it. Immediately after this line of dialogue, we see Steiner in his office, looking at the glass dome of his office. Now why would Steiner, one of the oldest vampires, who the game has just stated would be extremely affected by daylight, have something that lets his biggest weakness into his private abode? It's almost as if he doesn't need to worry about it... | |
