Of Orcs and Men Screens Hit the Tubes

I suppose it's too much to hope it'll be more than a regular slasher with the main character's skin tone changed to green?

Seems interesting enough.

On a side note, read the Orcs series by Stan Nicholls. It's pretty good and the Orcs are the good guys.

Ditto on "Orcs" by Stan Nicholls.

Also, it's interesting to change up the routine from time to time. If the Fantasy genre has shown anything consistently time and time again: Humans are racist bastards. If they were to suddenly switch from a monarchy to a democratic form of government, leaders and cabinet ministers would be elected based on their preference for lining up all the neighboring races (particularly the ugly ones) along the cobblestone sidewalks and dealing with them American History X style.

All in all, it'd be nice to play as a protagonist who isn't granted the title of protagonist by virtue of being the least ugly in the game (a la Kratos). It'd also be nice to play as a protagonist who actually has an excuse to wield the improbably large sword with ease without some bullshit excuse like "magic" or "serious training". I don't care how well you might've trained with that sword, but your skinny, effeminate looking human protagonist should NOT be able to pick up a sword the size of an I-Beam and wield it like a rapier!

This is a perfect example of something that "Sounds Too Good To Be True" (TM).

But I will keep my eyes on it while trying not to get my hopes up.
Just imagine, finaly a game that tells the story of us orcs from OUR perspecive!!

Sounds promising, but I would prefer if you got to be an orc that was killing elves. Because all elves really deserve to die. Seriously.

Agreed, slaughter the dirty knife ears. All this Orc vs Humans thing was probably a sneaky elven ploy anyway. We should unite and destroy this pointy eared, harp playing blight!

Tritto (oh hellz yeah) on that, cracking set of books, although the Omnibus could be used as a bludgeoning tool.

This could be really good. Looking forward to this.
