Its hard to discuss when the developers are so tight lipped.
While its a mystery what the game(s) would be I suspect some things are comfortably expected.
- You'll start alone on a boat/ship after being abducted/incarcerated.
- Your first quest will be to escape said ship even though you are infected/collared/possessed/charmed/or some other type of physical/mental restriction
- during your escape you will meet some/all of your future potential companions
- Said ship will be sunk/crashed/or otherwise destroyed during your escape and some mysterious higher/lower power will save you from certain death
- after this you will wake up alone on a beach near a somewhat remote but inhabited location whereupon you will once again encounter your future potential companions one by one as you journey
- soon after reaching the remote location which is occupied/under threat of some nefarious regime/army/cult you will find yourself forced to take sides
- eventually the mysterious power who saved you will reveal that this is all part of a vast struggle involving the gods themselves (hint the gods are either outright evil at worst or capricious and unfeeling/unsympathetic/selfish/corrupt at best) and YOU are the KEY to saving EVERYTHING.
* Also there will be 3 acts and lots of exploding barrels
