The Song Of Fire
And Ice - one of the most successful fantasy series of novels, TV viewers more
familiar with Game of Thrones name. However,
it was up to Mr. Martin novels
got the license to HBO talented hands. After
a successful series debut story lovers cohorts increased significantly, causing
additional headaches expressionless French - Canadian studio Cyanide, which
eventually ended up in equity rights to create games of Westeros?
The obvious
lack of beauty
The
first pancake burns - unspectacular Game of Thrones: Genesis has brought into question
the role of the game was announced and the overall quality of the chef's
expertise. The
sports boosters and table games worked in the study tried all his experience to
move into the new strategy. The
game marked by curious decisions , but it was not enough - and lifeless gloomy
portrait of the product practically does not differ from the set of competitors
, and given him the name only irritated fans of the universe .
Even
before an RPG variation authors and fans rushed to curry favor from the curious
pay off. Lightning
speed in the game include the TV series main Raman’s Djawadi tune and announced
that both products are close relatives. Meanwhile,
the greatest contribution made him epic novel, the game script naming
canonical.
Only
unfortunately, an intriguing story, great sound design and love alien universe
critics did not sufficiently strong to provide a set of positive feedback. On
the other hand, is a lot to criticize?
Unreal
Engine 3 and Cyanide duo recalls the first evening of dance students. Sluggish
movements, flushing cheeks and carpet still on partner legs - this benevolent comparison,
shoots off in the head after the first acquaintance with the game. Low- resolution and
grimy texture - half of the problem. Wooden animation and hateful scenery, what
else. Of
course , the Smurfs village of Seven Kingdom does not have anything in common,
horror presents technological aspects of the style well, as promised, is close
to the series and perfectly reflects the political and mythological world Bauby
camp did not suffer .
Intestinal
form corridors , vegetation ugly , dirty background , and five -year -old
object models do not remain unnoticed , at least as far as lighting diminished
capacity soothes the eyes. Meanwhile,
on an industrial scale to multiply characters appear in the background in the
shadow of his identity does hide. Of course, this kind of charges a small study,
especially when the roles of the world reigns fierce north Vikings are somewhat
exaggerated. But
after the boom, which led to the name of the famous HBO expect high quality.
Greeted by robe ...
Be that as
it may, the graphics not playing. Game of Thrones in the past trying to hide
the first impressions of deep roles system gives the player the freedom to
choose and play deserved awaited fan- service.
Game
story from the perspective of two characters: Sir Moors Westford and red monk
Alistair Service. The events of the first game evolve Martin's book (and the first
season of the TV series) in the background. The
above-mentioned series of novels by the author’s approval Cyanide scriptwriters
- not just a marketing campaign. Meticulous placed closely intertwined with the
events described in the book of history. Long
years Lancaster’s service Sir Westford threw the guard service in the dark, and
the overthrow of influence Targariens Sarvik decision to withdraw the Liberty
City area.
Martin
universe similar narrations do not say anything, but the game developers tried
to glory, trying to present the events understandable. Here you and detailed explanations,
and even built-in encyclopedia. This solution pleasantly surprising, after all,
along with the teaching of facts peculiar to their interpretation. In order to
enjoy the game, no need to get acquainted with the books and television series,
and the authors selected a few intricate fusion events - a true gift for any
role-playing enthusiast.
A
linear plot and characters with pre-build their characters and properties of strange,
but did not become an obstacle to the use of role-playing system. Players are
advised to select the desired class, which is responsible for its own capacity
trees and used a range of weapons and armor. In addition, permitted use of
specialization and ability points, but the most interesting looks strengths and
weaknesses of choice. Reinsertion
into the talented leadership characteristics actor resume received penalty points,
which will undercut the voluntary purchase and weakness.
In
addition, improved character interaction with the surrounding world. Options
during the game not only allow the player to perform one or another action and
thus influence future events, but also to build some extra muscle. Some options
are directly influenced by the character's performance.
Anti heck causes two
kinds of feelings. On
the one hand the standard mmo kit with quick keys stripe puzzled, but as far as
the situation corrects active pause. It is worth noting here that the
developers tried to create something original. Pause - is conditional title,
time does not stop, instead of dramatically slowed down. Thanks to the battles
become discreet and slanted animation does not seem to slow down time so shamelessly.
Accompanied by the mind
Trying
to compare, the closest relatives of Game of Thrones - is Dragon Age and The Witcher
franchise. Due to the different factors of the game is second to both competitors,
but has strengths significantly overtaking his colleagues. Martin
Love the world and meticulous attention to detail, nothing inferior Polish product,
the ability to add new characters, while still getting the author's approval of
a full head taller than the Canadian effort.
Unfortunately,
one of the heavier stones deployed by Cyanide kitchen garden has become a
special feature of the game - his presentation. Unlike other genres
representatives of French direct their attention to the story , you lose the
game thanks to the normal pace of the action and basically loses practically
all representatives of the genre overall kill - talk - talk atmosphere . Speculate
whether this sort of design has been provided in the design concept, or is it
merely the narrative emphasis on other elements of the game price - not worthwhile,
too late.
