Seriously, once it begins to swing open you can walk through them as if there not there & they remain that way all the time they are open. Once they open it is as if they aren’t even there. Locked doors…Don’t worry I’m not about to say you can just walk through them. Receiving the kiss of life? Watch as they lean through your helmet as if it wasn’t even there! It’s so stupid I can’t understand why they gave you the option to have helmets on. So you can be wearing you helmet during a cut-scene & characters will still interact as if you are not. Your characters will wear the armour you have dressed them in except for the helmet unless you toggle this option on. Truthfully it doesn’t look like an X-Box 360 game at all & in cut-scenes it really falls down. It’s lazy & unacceptable for a game that is on the X-Box 360. Characters float on air, walk through walls & stand inside coffins even when they are sealed. Textures are rough & they pop in & out when they please. Let’s start with how it looks…it is an ugly game. Sadly I can’t offer the same amount of praise for the rest of the game. It’s well done & feels like it fits within the world, it has plenty of twists & turns & an outcome that may not be as obvious as it first seems. I’ve been deliberately vague with the story description above as I don’t want to ruin to much of the games strongest point…the story. Mors must solve the mystery behind the girl while honouring his promise to Jon Arryn & his vows to the nights watch.Įventually both characters stories will cross-over as well. A lot of people want her dead including the Queen…. Upon returning to Castle Black he receives a message from the Kings Hand, Jon Arryn asking Mors to protect a girl who has been sent to the North. While hunting down others he runs into wildings & engages in a fierce battle before being saved by more men of the nights watch. Mors Westford’s side of the story begins on the wall where he has hunted down a deserter of the nights watch. In the absence of any lord of Riverspring, Alester’s sister has been betrothed to his bastard brother, Valarr who is supported by the Crown.Īlester must solve the murder of his father, find his brother & win back his lands. Turns out his brother, Gawen is up for the murder since he was disinherited but he is now missing. The game takes place in chapters, alternating between playing as the Red Priest Alester Sarwyck, and the skinchanger Mors Westford.Īlester’s side of the story takes place in the South as he returns to his family’s land of Riverspring to attend the funeral of his father. So here we are, Game of Thrones…the game.
Game of thrones rpg review series#
It’s the kind of series that if you are not going to do it right…don’t do it all. To create an RPG based in it would take years of work & a momentous amount of effort & money it’s not a project I can see many developers/publishers funding. The world of A Song of Ice & Fire is huge & extremely detailed. When word came to me that an action RPG existed based on the series I envisioned a game on the scale of The Witcher 2 or Kingdoms of Amular, I even hoped for another possible Skyrim, I should have known better. So I’m a big fan of a Song of Ice & Fire, enough so that I’m pretty protective of the series & get a bit frustrated with people who declare that they love ‘Game of Thrones’ but poo-poo the idea of reading the series. Martin’s amazingly detailed Song of Ice & Fire series? It’s going to be an adult orientated RPG? It’s will take place during the period of the first book, Game of Thrones? It will star 2 new characters, 1 from the South & another from the North but they will meet & interact with characters from the book? So you’re going to make a game based on George R.R.
