The only difference is that when you click our link, you can play the game in seconds and it’s free. In some ways we are quite surprised by how far we can push this technology as we’re moving towards the quality of client-based MMOs like World of Warcraft. “We’re pushing the game as far as is possible right now. “It’s a huge world built for huge battles,” said Tharaldsen. The world will offer a dynamic weather system with night and day cycles. The game, which has been kept under wraps save for some environments and character models, will boast 3D graphics with a full animation system complete with collision detection. Tharaldsen promises that Game of Thrones: Seven Kingdoms will be the most advanced browser-based MMO ever released. It will also be a political game between the players.” We foresee that it won’t just be fighting. Instead of disbanding a guild, you can choose to backstab your side. Although you align with one of the three factions, you can shift factions overnight.
There are going to be a lot of social features to the game, including a robust political element. Siege is going to be an important aspect of attacking forts, castles and other strongholds. “You can go out in groups and fight together. “Multiplayer is going to be a big part of this game world,” said Tharaldsen. This plays a key role in the game’s real-time combat system, as more advanced players will be able to link together combination moves to succeed on the battlefield. As an example, the two-handed sword, or range, has 20 different skills and 60 abilities. Players can explore the online world, which features actual locations from the show, and develop specialties. The RPG allows players to start the game experience from one of three different locations – East, West or South. “There’s a lot of stuff and we’re continuing to add new content as we work with HBO on this project.” “We’re using all the sound effects and music from the series,” said Tharaldsen. Tharaldsen said the game maker has a very close relationship with HBO and is utilizing assets from the TV series, including digital versions of the armor, weapons and sets. PHOTOS: Spoiler Alert! From ‘Game of Thrones’ to ‘Mad Men’ - TV’s Most Shocking Deaths “We’re making a sandbox player versus player game and you choose to align with one of the three factions to create your avatar and house. “It’s an open scenario,” said Jorgen Tharaldsen, producer of the game, at the Game Developers Conference (GDC 2012) in San Francisco.
