THANK YOU for pointing out how little the movie has to do with the game. I was annoyed by how many reviews seemed to blame the quality of this movie on the fact that it's (supposedly) based on a video game, when it was all due to Boll's insanity. I've played through the first and second game (the third came out after the movie). I'm not defending their honor or anything, because the games honestly aren't that great, but I can tell you that virtually nothing from the games is used in the movie. In fact, the games are generally pretty plot-less and devoid of any characters - it's mostly about killing monsters and getting better loot. What plot there is has no relation to the movie at all and is mostly about gathering powerful magic items to save the world - no king, no succession, no romance, etc. Here are the entirely of the shared elements between the 2 games and the movie: - The kingdom is called Ehb - You fight the orc-like Krug - Your character in the first game begins as a farmer - There are wood nymphs in the 2nd game - There's an evil wizard in the 2nd game That's IT. I'm pretty sure Uve Boll played the first 5 minutes of each game and then wrote the rest of the plot using generic fantasy tropes.
