"There are probably only a handful of people out there who can genuinely say that they were looking forward to Of Orcs and Men with eager anticipation.
I’ll be honest, I certainly wasn’t one of them – in fact, I hadn’t even heard about it until a week before its release."
By avoiderdragon:Even though they’re traditionally seen as bad guys, orcs have always been a popular fictional race in the fantasy genre. From Dungeons & Dragons with the Forgotten Realms settings among others, Warhammer 40K with the ones with the big guns and the Cockney accents, Warcraft that portrays them as noble savages, and so on, Orcs have always been a staple since the days of Tolkien. This game by Cyanide Studios and Spiders attempt to capture the very essence of the Orcs’ charm into one game aptly named Of Orcs and Men
Valve is celebrating the German videogame conference GamesCom 2013 with a celebration of Paris-developed games from the 19th to the 25th of August.
"The 'Game From Paris' will feature 17 successful titles developed by Parisian studios, that Steam users will be able to download at a discounted prices," according to the press release.
Ian from DJ Podcasts writes "For gamers who grew up in the early 90s and for fans of games during those first few years Kickstarter as a business model is really starting to pay off. As an average consumer even more so, because you don’t have to do anything and the 1000s of fans out there chipping in are paying, for your child hood memories to be remade."
Sometimes you need to cleanse your palate with a game like this so you can appreciate the great ones...
Sometimes it's these sorts of games that can surprise.
A bit of different. However, though I quite enjoyed it to begin with, it did get boring fairly quickly
This actually looks interesting: playing on the side of orcs against humans. The combat sounds odd though
