My only disappointment in the Asher storyline
It is, that he was supposed to bring an Army back to Ironrath. As I counted (I probably failed ), he took about 10 with him. When they arrive at Ironrath, there are like 6 of them remaining
either Asher completely fucked up and failed to bring the army (What I don't think) or Telltale wasn't able to create many of them Sellswords to come with Asher (What I also don't think because There were many of them at the fighting pit and My Asher got every single one of them cheering)
I guess Telltale kinda failed that one, still I freaking loved that Asher brought those Pitfighters to Westeros.
What's your oppinion about that?

He brought QUITE an army considering... Asher did well.
He did well for an exiled Sellsword:)
Well they were really pressed for time and options after Daenaerys sort of screwed Asher over. I'd say he did well considering the circumstances.... those pitfighters were pretty savage.
Although I do think that if that entire arena full of pitfighters had joined and not just 10, then the Battle of Ironrath and even the brother ambush would have gone a lot differently.
Exactly.
I'm thinking telltale probably only included the dozen or so pitfighters because they knew they wanted the forresters to lose Ironrath and disperse. If they had a more formidable army, Telltale would have to tie up the loose end of having a whole army of Essos pitfighters suddenly wandering around Westeros after the battle. Easier to tie up that loose end and show a dozen pitfighters dying in battle than a hundred.
exactly:)
This game taught me that 10 or 20 men is considered to be an army. :P
I like to think that due to the game engine's limitations, they couldn't show the whole 'army' that Asher has recruited or the whole Forrester army.
yup, The Telltale-Issue
But they were still able to show quite alot of the Whitehill force
The initial shot where Rodrik saw the whole Whitehill army, it was a background art that was cleverly used as showing the large army. And Telltale uses some smart camera tricks that makes the army seems larger by showing a long row of soldiers or people fighting groups when in reality it is probably just at least over ten models in a scene.
One can accomplish a lot of stuff by using camera tricks and backgrounds.
Was a huge disappointment since most of your journey as Asher was trying to get back home with an army just to see what an actual army looks like before getting annihilated!
and due to the clone troopers (lack of varied character textures)
Oh how many times are threads like this going to keep popping up =p. I'm not sure if you're actually being serious or you're just trying to troll.
Just because you only see about half a dozen pit fighters, it does not mean that only 6 pit fighters were there. They obviously chose to create a few memorable pit fighters rather than a hoard of generic ones. What you have to remember is that they have to work within the game engine limitations.
