I'm only up to the third episode right now but this game is just...annoying. I'm not enjoying it as much as I should. Why is the Forrester House such pushovers? Were their fighting men all slaughtered at the red wedding? Why can't we stand up to the Whitehills at all, ever? Oh sure I have dialog choices ranging from "We should all try and work together" to "gently caress YOU BITCH" and basically it feels like none of them do poo poo. If you bend over and stay polite, the Whitehills will still walk over you and taunt you with poo poo like "I'm glad your dad and your human being brother died lol" and if you answer to gently caress themselves and escalate agression, it resolves into nothing anyway since your main caracter at this point is a cripple and you have like 5 fighting men at your command. So at some point I just end up being as agressive as I possibly can to at least save face, and if the game sends me into a dead-end decision where everybody dies, so be it, at least I will die with my honor intact instead of kneeling and kissing Whitehill's rear end.

This game is full of moments where the antagonists are like: "I'm glad your father and brother died, they were filth and filth deserves to die! Scrub my boots Forrester dog!" 1. We're sorry that by dying and gushing blood everywhere they soiled your boots, Lord Whitehill. We will definitely make it up to you and will die in a less messy way in the future. 2. We should talk this through with a cool head. 3. SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE. *punishes or makes the player feel guilty for picking option 3* Do they honestly expect anyone to try and placate the loving Whitehills when litterally the first thing Lord Whitehill says when coming in your halls in episode one is basically that he's happy half your family got murdered? There's no nuance or depth to this game, none of these grey caracters you should expect from a game of thrones game. I still like the voice acting and overall scenario, but I will echo what a lot of you said here in that I reached a certain threshold where I stopped trying to use a middle of the road approach. As soon as the game gave me the power to do SOMETHING Getting the 20 elite guards I just went ahead and put all these assholes in jail, and stabbed Gryff's eye with my cane just because I could not stand seeing people get beaten and humiliated anymore.

I did everything in my power not to start poo poo and only defended myself, I basically told him to stop attacking multiple times and the game still treated this as murder. I didnt even finish the guy off, just chose the .... option. I did my best to keep my promise to Jon Snow. Consequently, when I was in front of the weirwood tree afterwards, I chose the "The Watch betrayed me" option.
