I can wait...lots of good stuff either released orcoming soon.

I saw that.

I played the game for several minutes. So far a nice game.

However it does seem to have the bug that's way too common among Cyanide/Focus games,
And that is causing the GPU to overheat.
Can't even find a VSync option for the game.

Please post more impressions as you get deeper into the game!

Yeah man post more! If Orcs turns out to be good and I can avoid that overheating I may be buying more games in the next few months than I usually do in half a year.

Here's a video that seems to give a pretty good idea what the gameplay is like. I don't think this one's for me.

(also, some accents just don't seem to belong in a fantasy game. New York Woody Allen-esque Jew is one of them.)

I could love this game but not for 39.99. A rainy day Steam sale purchase it will be, if that. RPS didn't like it much.

Yeah I read the RPS article and I won't be getting this until its very very cheap.

What an annoying effing video. Too many self-styled comedians d*cking around for the first three minutes of every let's play vid just doesn't come off well in most cases. ::)

I saw it on steam a few weeks back and looked into it. As soon as I saw it was by Cyanide my interest cooled. The trailer looks good but the trailers always do. From what I can work out the combat system is the same as the Game of Thrones Rpg. It was ok but not great so I'll wait until there are a good few player reviews before I decide.
