War of the Roses

[Scott Tortorice]

When this game was first announced, I was "meh" as it sounded like a M&B copycat. Truth be told, it still sounds like a M&B copycat , but remains interesting for no other reason than we can never have too many melee games. :horse: Dibs on the user profile "Wolfhound"!

Looks nice. While I've not played any of the Mount and Blade titles, they have their followers for sure. I would much rather prefer a graphics updated Total War:Medieval 3.

I fail to see what it offers that M&B doesn't do already.

Yeah he tried really hard to not mention M&B. But his wording kinda lost me really... "only" I think, came up a few times

Even though there still isn't a lot to distinguish this game from M&B, I mean other than the graphics, that is , it still looks interesting to me.

BTW: stumbled across an unofficial post from a dev on the M&B forums that basically confirms that M&B2 is underway.

GameSpot has a floor demo:

I hope we don't have to play in the third person - I dislike third person combat games. A first person perspective would be appreciated. Still, it looks like it will be a lot of fun.

Scott it is thrid person I belive apart from when you fire arrows. Could be wrong but I'm sure I heard it was like that.

I'm interested in their other game aswell Krater.

That is sort of what I thought seeing how their previous Western-themed combat game was strictly third person. Oh well. In a medieval game, it might actually make more sense.
