This is the first game I feel ambivalent about. On the one hand is a fantastic mix of game mechanics, on the other hand you have unfair challenges that are unplayable, even on easy difficulty setting. E.g. you have to take up (fight) 3 AI-players that team together! On top of that, the AI cheats (see other reviews).
I really love this game, the developers must have the right mindset, but the scenario's that are frustrating makes me dismissing the game for an indefinite period of time.
This game makes me happy, but unfortunately, sometimes it makes me mad.
its fun and relatively easy to play, but still kind of complex, with several win conditions, allowing you to play in many different styles, and which probably keeps the game entertaining for awhile.
Each game takes awhile, but i guess that not necessarily a bad thing.
The story is well presented, and the characters and factions are different and interesting.
And, the graphics are dope.
I've been playing this game for a while now. I've never played it previously, but so far, it actually seems pretty good. I'm enjoying the gameplay, only have a few things to say about it though.
Gameplay: Good, Old-Fashioned, Age of Empires-like gameplay. this is a major bonus since the game is an RTS. The biggest Issue I'm having with this game so far, is that it's a little difficult to balance the resources properly partly due to the fact that you can only have one of each building in each zone, and only so many buildings in each zone. this is not really a problem, but it does limit your resource production. It is because of the building/worker limits that make the game a challenge and a strategy game.
Graphics: Very good, not too demanding for my PC.
Story: Not very original so far, at least not the main campaign, not very compelling either from what I've seen. Not bad though, just not really anything to write home about. Each clan has a hero/leader, and each of them has their own backstory and clan summary. The backstories unfortunately are not very clear so far.
Multiplayer mode: available, but I haven't tried it yet.
Single player mode: great, lots of options. there are several campaigns(4 or 5 I think), and the skirmish/single missions are well done.
Overall: I think the game was well thought out and executed, the only reason this is 4 stars instead of 5 is because some levels are more difficult than they need to be, and the clans are not well balanced.
There is something to learn in the simplicity of this games mechanics and it can yet surprise you. You still need take care where and what you build to make sure you are not overproducing one over the other and make sure you expand with a strategy. All in all, very addictive game!
