War of the Roses Gamescom 2011 Debut Trailer [HD]

[DextrusSB]

@presbydos. Play Mount and Blade warband its the same game just with worser graphics

[dfghj241]

@DextrusSB so this game is like MOUNT E BLADE???W I CANT WAAITT!, you mean, your one man, seeking to create a army and become king, and the gameplay is in third person and stuff.. right??

[DanEraser]

@DextrusSB How can it be the same game? I'm pretty sure it's much different

[shimazu122112]

COOL!

[dangar45]

He looks like a Turk, not a Englishman. He should have had thin lips/nose, and probably blue eyes.

[Frostbite864]

@dangar45 Not all Englishmen have thin lips/noses or blue eyes.

[presbydos]

Will gravity be included in the physics engine so archers will really have to aim carefully?

[presbydos]

I just hope this is not going to be the western version of the Dynasty Warriors franchise. As much as I like hack and slash. I want to fight other people knowing that a single mistake could make a difference between winning or dying, or getting an arrow to the head by camping archers... and not just losing a small percentage of your health bar.

[darknessphase]

WOW. paradox really came a long way! thumbs up if you agree!!!

[MrHellBoy291297]

if you look closely at the logo you can see "LR" or "B" instead "R" in "roses"

[RevolutionarySamurai]

I swear if this isn't ported to consoles!!... D<

[presbydos]

@RevolutionarySamurai its PC I believe

[RevolutionarySamurai]

@presbydos I know /'= totally gutted.

[footballskillz77]

Looks beautiful

Gotta mark that game

[Criomorph]

bollive it or not the war of the roses was a real war between two noble families in medieval Briton for the throne of England!The book and game are inspired by it.

[014Fredde]

This is going to be an AMAZING GAME!!!!

[obviouslycurtis]

LANCASHIRE!

[dmax631]

oh yes the house of york. all yorkshireman will buy this game!

[AlecFortescue]

It is supposed to be a successor of Mount and Blade. Waiting for Chivalry, though.

[WarLordTR7]

Is this something like Mount & Blade Warband/ Mount and Blade With Fire and Sword?

[Bleopping]

@WarLordTR7 The devs saying the game will be similar to warband, yes.

[ildur]

Wow, bad animations. Looks like the cutscenes from Age Of Empires 2...

Really hope the game looks better!

[karandres]

@ildur GO TO HELL YOU UNWORTHY WORM!

[pengydude1]

isnt that the same people who made amnesia?

[KDP3200]

At first I was expecting another epic RTS then it Read it was just a multiplayer game :(

[all4one5]

Its a fucking teaser trailer. Its not supposed to be a jaw dropping experience.

[nurik9202]

Valuev in a shiny armor? Brainfuck...

[jjdonyt]

great time and setting looking out for this game, and the interview that totalbisquit had with the developer of the game was interesting enough to maybe create a whole new genre in gaming. sounds to good to be true... well i hope it is so

[Tounushi]

There haven't been too many games about the english civil war, have there?

[Zoran54321]

Check out TotalBiscuit's coverage of this game (YouTube dotcom/TotalHalibut)

[RainbowChocobo]

looks more of a start menu then anything

[KidsDeserveDinosaurs]

It came up and i was like shit man this is gonna be amazing, it was then I realized I had be watching an advert for skyrim.

[natethebate152]

The people behind him are like "screw that".

[exactinmidget92]

one thing i've heard on another channel is that this game will be like mount&blade. so if its true then it will be a good game

[Noxere]

Ok...this told me absolutely nothing about the game.

[jonez227]

that was the worst trailer....of all time

[ThePepex123]

the game looks cool, but this is probably the worst trailer i've seen so far

[inception951]

YouTube's "reaction" list SUCKS

[21Assasin]

Oh yay another medieval based combat game with stale game mechanics and button mashing frustration

[LukasKlenke117]

shit

[rawwwrryy]

Yorkshire FTW! I will change history and York will kick your Lancashire arses ;)

[dmax631]

@rawwwrryy we did many times, they just won the final battle

[IGame4Eire]

Is this like similar to Mount and blade?

[Janoslive1]

fuck the trailers at gamescon dont like too promising....:/

[ZuluSmasher]

YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE YORKSHIRE!!!!!!

[BURALGONBUR]

I like the part where we rides off the cliff Thumbs up if u Agree

[nathannjh]

@BURALGONBUR its the only thing in the trailer

[Maclarin1155]

awww i thought it was going to be an Alice in Wonderland RTS or something

[PaperEater13]

Assassin's Creed + Skyrim lol.

on a serious side note, it doesn't look bad really, we'll see more of it in the future and judge (:

[Capiche2234]

As long as they combine the competitive aspect of Lead and Gold with the combat mechanics in Mount & Blade it's going to be good.

[SnipeManiac]

well .... I read a bit and saw a few videos.... I can't say I'm yet excited for it but I'll keep an eye out... Looking foward to see the actual gameplay.

[ghost3d0091]

is this based off the weir series?

[07RyanD]

SKYRIM AD!

[Chubbypunch01]

Looks decent but its al about the gameplay

[SvaJonny]

People might say that the game is going to be good, but that trailer didn't spike my interest at all

[2Roles]

Looks cool

[xDocy93x]

Well that looks shit

[CogWerk]

@xDocy93x it is a realistic battle simulator like mount and blade for example



[Chapel808Pliskin]

I just wanna play as Falstaff and waddle my huge ass everywhere.

[Chapel808Pliskin]

i like all the people in the comments explaining the War of the Roses. Pretentious? Maybe. This game looks like Shakespeare the video game, very awesome.

[MajorBis]

It's a 3rd person melee/range combat game, with multiplayer. Derp.

[XxDeadSilencexX666]

this looks like its going to be a shitty RTS

[Stevrolol]

that isnt even a trailer rofl

[wiggy1988]

War of the Roses.

A civil war between the House of Lancaster (Under Henry VI) and the House of York (Richard III). It was called the war of the roses because the emblem of the house of Lancaster is a red rose, whilst the emblem of the house of York was a white rose.

[DeeComrade]

@wiggy1988 if they gonna talk with thick English accent i am so playing this shit :)

[Lidrev]

@wiggy1988 And so in the our Our Lord 1471, England descended into turmoil. Ride now, men, ride! For KING AND COUNTRY!

[lilmanluke1]

@wiggy1988 Congratulations you know year three history.

[wiggy1988]

@lilmanluke1

Someone asked me why it was called the war of the roses. I replied.

Sorry I couldn't add footnotes to my 30,000 word dissertation on the War of the Roses but the character limit on youtube is about 480

[themajormarco]

@wiggy1988 did this invovle romeo and juliet also i forgot

[wiggy1988]

@themajormarco

Why we are quite the cutting wit ain't we?

[themajormarco]

@wiggy1988 indeed :D

[DjImpossibility]

Im really looking forward to this game!

[swenzor]

Looks like the intro leading up to the menu screen, don't you agree? as the name pops up, so does all your regular buttons, "settings" etc. least thats what it looked to me, still not gonna judge the game until I see some proper game play footage.

[2Saber4you]

they want to keep all the copies for themselves i guess, because that trailer is one of the worst i have ever seen

[iiFlake]

I don't really know about you people, but the trailer was about a man on a horse from the start til the end.. 

[Sendura1]

Yayyyyyy, this game might actually have Yorkshire accents in it! REAL ENGLISH ACCENTS! Go Yorkshire!

[Bloodywolfbe]

Okay, other that some knights were butt Ugly, this trailer has told me... nothing...

[sinboy92]

I was going to try being sarcastic to criticize this video but I couldn't find a positive thing the be sarcastic about.

[archangelm08]

Gameplay trailer plzkthx

[sirtwitchy2]

@archangelm08 They just announced it for the first time, I doubt they have a gameplay trailer, be patient.

[sirtwitchy2]

Fatshark are the guys who made Lead and Gold, and I love, love, love that game, therefore I'm super excited for this.

[Generalovertime]

the war of the roses were between two factions of the scottish clan rose which they split to the white rose and the red rose because they didnt believe in who the leader of there clan was which started a war learn your history people. then again i am from the red rose

[monypril]

@Generalovertime It was in ENgland, not in Scotland and between two English feudal families.

[Imnon1]

It comes with horse armor, I'm buying it.

[denniesloot18]

fail

[DonKaranIsBack]

its a 3rd person melee multiplayer game... i think its going to be awesome

[Lyrichion]

Please add the option to cut off limbs and other lovely things =)

[wowalinbie]

well that showed fuck all



[EmeraldJunkie]

Ive been where most of the battles have taken place.

So I can run around saying "Ive seen that! And that! And that!"

[ANTGF95]

UM YEA SO WATS THIS GAME ABOUT?

[zoero]

@ANTGF95 ponies and men

[oriramu]

=_=..ohhhh a medieval times kinda game I thought it was..n,never mind

[findthecomputerroom6]

the bad thing about a history game is you already know the ending because you have either been taught it or you find it out lol

[MrCaptaincupcakeful]

History teachers around the are getting raging Boners for this game

[Gocrzyonu]

If i wanna play with flowers ill go outside o.o

[promdawg]

Is this going to be like their other game Mount and Blade?

[pudgedaddy]

wha, what! Where are Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner and Danny DeVito at? Oh this is not THAT war of the roses? I'll pass.

[templar684]

Hmm looks interesting i dont remember mmorpg with history of our world might be good , but probably end up like another second rate mmorpg

[PickledToenails007]

YORKSHIRE!

[immacodfan1000]

this sucks ass

'

[zodajc]

omfg i hate yt adds

[TheRandomBrosproduct]

York andl Lanchester had a war over who should run the country. Henry the 7th won so he went onto rule the country. It's the war of the roses as both family's had a Rose as there coat of arms, red an white. I learnt that when I was 10.

[Ty0240]

Lol the video cuts off so short it looks like he goes in alone. He's like "Alright men, LETS DO IT!!!!!!" *takes off on horse with sword pointing forward in his hand* the others sit back "Heeeeeeeeeeell no."

[EonRifft]

Back in my day a "trailer" would tell people something about the game. This is what should show up before the menu screen, that is not a trailer...

[shotcapturer]

@EonRifft Lol "back in my day" How old are you, 85? Trailers are just as good as they were in "your day"... when ever the hell that was.

[EonRifft]

@shotcapturer No way, back when Attila the hun (or Atily as we called him back then) and I were waiting by the Danube and we saw a great trailer of Minus -26 and Rome Total War.

In seriousness though, the video was not too informative. I dislike theatrical game trailers where no gameplay is shown, but this is worse as I felt like I just watched the star menu intro. The only reason I can guess the genre without looking it up is because Paradox release a bajillion and two games of the same type.

[Aiko0358]

..okay?

[wwemaniac78]

i dont get it i really dont get what this game is about what its about killer roses or something i dont know

[XDependent]

:D



[Pfromthe0]

Meeeh didn't show me anything , ill save my judgment

[redoutlander]

Well this trailer gave me no idea what the game is about, except that is it set in medieval Europe, and conveyed no excitement at all. Marketing fail.

[discombobulator97]

@redoutlander see had you been in my crappy history class youd know everything about this

[redoutlander]

@discombobulator97 Sadly No. I havn't taken any crappy history classes in a long time.

[RickyHayhurst]

LANCASHIRE NANANA, LANCASHIRE NANANA, LANCASHIRE NANANA, LANCASHIRE NANANA!!!!

[KidsDeserveDinosaurs]

is this going to be like a medieval style call of duty, or another game were you control an army and you always end up becoming a king?

[SHADOWFREAK55]

@KidsDeserveDinosaurs theres mount and blade

[omatu1]

0:35 Nikolai Valuev

[love4remind]

Bladestorm is better.

But Game of Thrones is greater than everything.

[GrimReap3rProduction]

if this plays like the mount and blade franchise i am totally gonna buy this...

[ZoneCookie]

Im I the only one who thought this was a Rumble Roses spin off?

[JesusLovesAllKids]

@ZoneCookie Yes.

[Nolmancketnun]

yes paradox! i loved mount and blade

[Iwesterkamp]

war of the roses = civil war in england to be the king...

m’kay?

[Deviloid]

So much uneducated people "War of the Roses" was a Civil war in Great Britain between the royal houses York(and another one which I dont remember),I dont remember much of it but if someone could shed a light why are there roses as the nick for the war I will be glad :)

[monypril]

@Deviloid Leicester, was the other one spelled I think. It is named war of the roses cause one had a white rose on their crest, the other one had a red rose.

[buk1237]

@monypril Lancaster not Leicester.

[monypril]

@buk1237 Thanks.

[stynkanator]

@Deviloid I think it was called the war of the roses because both family crests had roses on them. but I am not 100% sure and I am too lazy to make sure lol

[Toony18]

@Deviloid the individual symbols for the 2 houses were a red and a white rose so it's the war of the roses. One was Lancaster, the other one as you mentioned was the house of york.

[newnilzizi]

@Deviloid It was York vs. Lancaster.

The 'roses' concept was added later when the war was featured in drama, I think.

[JoKeRpRiNcE2]

@Deviloid The "War of the Roses" is called that because the House of York and the House of Lancaster both had roses for their emblems. One had a white rose, the other a red one.

[The280mm]

@Deviloid its the House of Lancaster and the House if York :)

[The280mm]

i had a lil help from Wikipedia ;)

[ChezJamesy]

@Deviloid the roses Denote the houses; The House of Lancaster's symbol was the Red Rose, and the House Of York's White Rose. The 'War Of The Roses' is more a Series of Civil wars, rather than one all-out war. The two houses both saw themselves as legitimate successors to the throne of the dynasty at the time (Plantaganet).

[Deviloid]

@ChezJamesy  Thanks for the info and for the reply.

[spencertheheghog]

wtf does this have to do with roses?!

[Alrisch]

@spencertheheghog You need to read more history bro

[TheBroadyk]

Based on a true event

[JWGinator96]

It would've been funny if the knight accidently cut the horses head off at the end of the trailer. By the way is it just me but did the end of the trailer look cheesy?

[LastSoulReapeR1995]

wow....

[911822733644500]

....what was the point of this trailer?

[Malkion009]

Umm a ..... sad face

[dragonbrad98]

so..uh...what?

[TheUnicornBuddha]

This trailer told me nothing

[SiIverGriever]

Is it just me, or was this the worst trailer ever?

[etniies99]

@SiIverGriever

lol i thought the same.

[newnilzizi]

@SiIverGriever I thought it was pretty good, what do you mean?

[runespaze]

@newnilzizi honestly it looks like the end of the intro right onto the "start screen"

[newnilzizi]

@runespaze Well it's an announcement trailer, it's supposed to be like that :P

[CristianApostol]

@SiIverGriever not by a longshot, i've seen trailers that have made me pour bleach in my eyes.

[Imnon1]

@SiIverGriever most debut trailers are horrible, it's the gameplay trailers that are the good ones.

[GhostLate]

@SiIverGriever

It doesn't matter. All Paradox Interactive games are amazing so you know this one will be good too.

[nitekrawler]

thats it?

[XvShadowsvX]

YORK! :D

[WolfieboyMachi]

Omgsrslywtfshire.

[Shevychuk]

Lancashire la la la, Lancashire la la la

[McKMark]

Big spoiler here, lancashire wins in the end...sorry

[lifediesyoung]

ZOMG! i'm from lancaster! :D

[Ab0utTheAuth0r]

weakest trailer ever

[bigchavybear124]

if your confused wiki it its basically about the war for the english throne between the house of york and the house of lancaster

[PhantomTrigger]

Is this going to be an RTS or what?

[bawokoroma]

Booooring.

[MrUnkownism]

I have a strong feeling that this game will be like mount and blade :(

[TheDutty123]

@MrUnkownism i like mount and blade! but i dont want a rip off of mount and blade =(

[wrb1993]

For those who don't know, the War of the Roses was a civil war between the House of Lancaster and the House of York (the Red Rose vs the White Rose) over the English Throne. Lancaster won, founding the House of the Tudors. :)

[ChaationBergin]

Looks like shit, but I couldn't believe it was actually about the historical conflict between English houses.

Awesome.

[shockerRO]

Is this a strategy game with the civil war in England between the two roses?

[DarthScosha]

Trailer starts 0:21 Finishes 0:57

Just trying to save you some valuable seconds.

[rvdm88]

glad to see it comes with HorseArmor!

[MrDarcscythe]

HISTORY FTW

[G96Saber]

Lancashire FTW!!!

[Only1Magma]

somebody knows the Yu-Gi-Oh game called Duelists of The Roses?!
