Oct 18, 2012Good solid game with a strong story. A nice break from the mainstream games that are becoming stale. The combat system is different and requires a bit of thought making for some careful planning against large parties of foes. Well worth a go.

Oct 14, 2012Guys, greeting to all from Russia. I just want to say that this game is amazing. All negative reviews are from Russian guy named Biboran and his fans. They like to give negative ratings for good games. They find it funny. Just look at PS3 version of Dishonored. They are idiots. Now forget about them. Play Of Orcs and Men! Game of the month for me.

Oct 14, 2012Lured to buy the game by the "1.0" metacritic user score, driven by a sudden unexplainable twinge of perverted masochism, I have to say I got really disappointed in my expectations: this is an original and entertaining game. Can't see particular flaws worth mention, only thing I can do is suggest it.

Oct 15, 2012Please give this game a chance. The 205 negative reviews dont have any comments. How is that possible because I had to write 150 characters to leave a review.

Oct 13, 2012Like the rest here. I am just balancing out the review from this 204 bomb show. I really doubt 204 people ranked it is the worst possible game in history without even one of them saying why it is

Oct 14, 2012What a bunch of trolling idiots. Trying my best to balance this out. Game looks original and it will be fun playing as the bad guys, trying to slay the filthy humans!
-
Oct 14, 2012Same as other posters, just balancing for trolling, if/when I end up getting the game I'll get back to you on what I thought. The only thing I can currently say is that the trailer looked good and if the gameplay is up to par it should be an interesting game.

Oct 16, 2012Refreshing, solid and a nice break from the generic RPG storyline of human Good - Orc Bad... voice acting is killer with the well written script and as another reviewer stated combat is a lot like Dragon Age which is much to my liking, money well spent, looking forward to future title DLC's

Oct 27, 2012If you liked Dragon Age, this game is for you. Finally a game that uses a new graphics engine. I was devastated when GW2 came out and it looked like a ten year old game. Games should use cutting edge graphics and sound and that just has not been happening lately. This game brings you both and a strong story and enthralling gameplay. 8.5 out of ten.

Mar 29, 2016I found this game quite enjoyable when i was playing it a few years ago and I still remember it that alone speaks volumes. Now this game might not be the most polished game ever released and combat might not be perfect or anywhere near perfect but story was decent and compelling enough to make you stick until the end and lastly voice acting was amazing.

PC Master (Greece)Feb 6, 2013An interesting experiment of an “intellectual” action game, with unique protagonists, a story with strokes of magnificence and dilemmas. Alas, its launch is badly-timed (many blockbusters around this time of year). Of Orcs and Men is not for everyone, but at least all fantasy fans should have a peek. [December 2012]
-
LEVEL (Czech Republic)Nov 30, 2012Action adventures with orc and goblin in leading roles aren't too usual. Unfortunately, there is not much to offer – gameplay is flat and eye-catching visuals can't save it all. [Dec 2012]

Nov 13, 2012Of Orcs and Men's few design issues don't prevent it from being a fun, table-turning take on the age-old conflict.
