Thanks for the reply about the Wtcher! I totally agree, story, characters, music, environment… If there was a Witcher 3 type game set in the world of Westeros what age would you prefer? And even more important what places would you think would be the best? Personally i would love to see the old North, the andal invaded Riverlands or the Dornish Marshes and its castles like Nightsong, Starfall, etc. Please feel free to give as long an answer as you need btw.

I got three words for you: The. Great. Game. It’s perfect for a Witcher 3 type game: war, political intrigue, multiple factions with distinct iconography that lends itself to different visual designs. Plus, there’s a lot of blank spaces on the timeline, so the designers could run with whatever they wanted and as long as everything ends in inevitable stalemate as it should (b/c that’s what the Great Game is about, thematically) there’s no adverse impact on the timeline. 

In terms of places:

  • the Riverlands would be a great place to encounter the Riverlanders, but also the Westermen, the Valemen, the Stormlords, maybe the North or the Ironborn.
  • The Dornish Marches would give you the Reach, the Dornish, the Stormlords, and if you extend it over to the Narrow Sea you can throw in the Free Cities of Essos too. 
  • Definitely some of the cities: Oldtown and Lannisport definitely, although I’d love to see Braavos as well.
