Sounds interesting. I hope there's a character creator.This was posted in the other thread but could this be legit?

Nice. Hoping we see more games from this universe.
I would love a CDPR game. I think they're the only devs who could really do a Song of Ice and Fire RPG to the quality level I would want.

That would be insane, I hope it's real. Ever since GOT started up again I've been itching for an action game set in medieval times, I ended up reinstalling The Witcher 3 because it's basically what I was looking for, however I still can't get through it since the combat is terrible, a game like that but with a FromSoftware combat system just sounds too good.
If GRRM was just doing consulting... then it's very likely to be A Song of Ice and Fire related.
But I think it won't be so related to the books/series, don't think those characters would fit a game like the one described, considering the books are much more about politics and strategy than action and adventure. Making it in Westeros a few centuries before is more fitting IMO.
Anyway, I'm curious to see how From Software approaches open-world design and I'm expecting people being very disappointed when realizing it has nothing to do with Souls.

GRRM decides to give up on writing the books and deciding that TWOW and ADOS will come out as videogames is the best thing that I could hope for honestly I'm not gonna get the books.
Hell, he could even pump out an ASOIAF sequel that way.
Imagine if this is Epic Games Store exclusive first. Release on console 6 months to a year later. That's going to be the new wave. Instead of Microsoft or Sony timed exclusive on their respective platforms, next-gen is Epic throwing haymakers and nabbing third party timed exclusives on their platform.
Just kidding, but actually maybe this will come true for other titles.
Having a Westeros game without politics is basically not making a Westeros game
Yeah this is my main concern after Sekiro + George R.R. Martin being onboard. But if he's just doing lore and stuff it'll be alright. Instead of them having to stay in the boundaries of an existing universe.
I can see this dystopian video game future. It's almost guarantee. Sad, but true.
I agree, personally CDPR are the only ones who can pull of ASOIAF universe, which makes me more curious as to how GRR is gonna inject his style into a Souls like game where story is told via gameplay.
I think just setting in Asshai would work best.
This sounds like an area straight from Dark Souls.
The city is humongous.
The place is so toxic that normal animals can't live there.
It's depopulated.
Most of the people that do live here are sorcerers of some king. It's a city of black magic.
Demons and dragons live in Asshai.
I don't think any fromsoft game is harder than gimme gow difficulty
Yeah. This would be as cool as setting the game in Valyria. Again, I don't think that will happen though. But let's all dream together.
Some Asshai fanart for everyone to drool at:
How about this Stygai?
This would be so cool, and a great way to show parts of the ASOIAF world that I'm sure he'll never get around to really writing a ton about
High fantasy isn't even in my top 10 favorite genres and this has me hyped.
Omnipotent has already said in the other thread that it will be multiplat.
George is clearly looking for any excuse to avoid coming to terms with the fact that he doesn't know how to finish his story.

great rune is a really bad title though, hope they change it
Whenever I read From Software I grab my wallet and run out of the house to the gamestore, bursting through the door, throwing my wallet on the counter and scream "New FromSoft gameh gimme noww", while drooling on the floor.
Then they kick me out the door, saying "fuck off, fanboy". This happens all the time.

So i've been pretty slow at reading the GRR rumor thread and well this rumor for me and for a lot of people in the thread went from a fake rumor to a rumor from that might be true to a rumor that could quite possibly well be true to a rumor confirmed by anonymous sources to a rumor confirmed by news outlets to a rumor that seems like an almost certainty for me.
From the 4chan image, i REALLY hope Yui Tanimura ain't the lead director for this because of his decisions on Dark souls 2's gameplay changes from Dark souls 1 which i really hated but regardless i hope the player movement is not slow and the fighting isn't slow paced like dark souls 2. I HATED that.

It's going to be one hell of a show with this, Cyberpunk and all the other goodies.Can`t wait for that Microsoft E3 briefing.
MS be like:
That`s the next installment in that little Ubi-franchise called Assassins Creed.
Hooooly shit, Game of the Generation right there.
I think Miyazaki is helming this with co-directors. I'm hoping this is 100% original and not tied to any license and pre-determined lore.
Good to know, although I guess an exclusive From game is the one thing that could get me to fork out for an X1. But now I don't have to!
I would've thought EA would own anything Game of thrones gaming related merchandise. They have rhe money to make GRR Martin more richer. Most likely From is making a new DS with GOT settings. Man, I'd expect even Bethesda to consult GRR at some point for ideas for ESVI
We'll probably get a tease like Sekiro TGA at the Microsoft presser. One CG shot, the From logo, the name drops of Miyazaki and Martin and maybe (if we're lucky) a title.
I don't think Yui Tanimura was responsible for those changes to gameplay/animations, considering its troubled development, and people don't give him enough credit, I feel.
I was also disappointed in DkS2, but I think he also played a large role in the design of DkS3, which turned out fucking great. Plus, Miyazaki is probably heavily involved in this project as well.
