That's  a defeatist attitude to take. If there are no new stories and ideas, why are we even making games at all? While a game may have one or two unavoidable cliches, not every game IS cliche.

Remember that a cliche is a part of a story that was really cool when it was new, but has been done so many times in things after that it has lost all of the punch it once had. Not everything that has been done before is a cliche. Every RPG has hit points, but hit points aren't cliche - they're just part of the simulation.

As authors and game makers, we should be actively looking at our games and trying to get rid of the big offensive ones. Taking a look at a scene and saying "this is cliche - it's been done too many times before. I need to change it" should be part of the game making process. Take Vidian's comments seriously and use that as an opportunity to make that part of your game better.

Hmm, I'm a writer myself, maybe you and I could team up to make a game some time? PM me if you would want to.

Other then that, it does look good, the conversation between the king and his son though is awful
