A Clash of Kings (Game of Thrones)

Mod review may contain spoilers

Despite it's flaws, ACOK has proven to be an amazing mod recreating the world of ASOIAF, otherwise known as A Game of Thrones by George R.R Martin and HBO. The mod at first instance throws you into the Stormlands before numerous wars begin, where you are left with only the North against the South. From there, many things seem to happen fairly randomly, whilst all following a schedule. Once you muster up a strong force and some cha-ching, you will most likely travel along the world to find landmarks, such as Winterfell, King's Landing, Storm's End, Casterly Rock, Braavos, and so on. It seems much work was put into this to recreate the base of Westeros and Essos forward, and things get truly fun when you begin playing the game for real. The mod itself is very well done, and I've heard things of crashes and lag-spikes, but I haven't experienced a single one. Many other AGOT mods clash with this one, but many manage to focus too hard on making their mod accurate, instead of working equally hard on making it fun. Cozur manages to do this just fine, and you end up with a crave to try every single roleplay storyline you could imagine. Whether it be Blackfyre, Targaryen, a bastard with small claim, or even follow other houses, there is a huge quantity of things to do. It gets even better when you add the quests this mod includes! You can get a valyrian weapon (not limited to swords!), gain a contract for assassination and murder the entire noble family, push the Wildlings into the south, bring Aegon Targaryen's claim into the fold, you can do anything you'd want to and more. It makes it even better to know that Cozur commonly updates this mod and adds more and more to it.
