The game features a control system created to accommodate the parallel release on consoles as well as on the PC. The game also avoids using many cut scenes by having characters talk to each other while traveling. This way, the game does not need any load screens often found in other games. The game displays the game world from an isometric (top-down) perspective and uses a display engine that makes the entire experience seamless by constantly loading required game scenes in the background.
