"Game of Thrones: Kingsroad Demo Horrifies Players"

From the very first announcement, "Game of Thrones: Kingsroad" drew skepticism from fans, with many pointing out that its visuals seemed outdated, reminiscent of PlayStation 3 era games or typical mobile titles. Despite the initial backlash, some enthusiasts remained hopeful, eager for a quality addition to the sparse lineup of games inspired by the iconic series.

The recent demo release during Steam Next Fest has definitively settled the debate, revealing that "Game of Thrones: Kingsroad" has not met expectations. Players have lambasted the game across various aspects, from its outdated combat mechanics and graphics to its design choices that echo mobile gaming aesthetics. Many have gone as far as to label it a simple mobile game port to PC. Even if that's not entirely accurate, "Kingsroad" feels like a relic from 2010.

Despite the overwhelmingly negative feedback, the demo's Steam page does feature some positive reviews. These comments, often phrased similarly such as "I really enjoyed the demo, looking forward to the full release," have raised questions about their authenticity. Are they the work of bots or genuine sentiments from the optimists who still hold out hope for a polished final product?

"Game of Thrones: Kingsroad" is slated for release on both PC via Steam and mobile devices, though an exact launch date remains undisclosed.
