This game draws me back again and again
The concept when compared to others that came after Settlers 2 is simple. Yet it is pleasant, well executed, and this is the best of the old designs that has been ported and made to run well on modern machines. I have beat this games many times. The only thing that would have kept me playing it even longer would have been if it could generate procedural maps. There may be an element of nostalgia for me as one as I consider Settlers 1 (The Settlers) to be one of my favorite games I experienced on my old Commodore Amiga. That one has not as lovingly been adapted to current machines. Settlers 2 also took most aspects of 1 and made it better. The ones that came after 2 may have been good as well 3 & 4 particularly but they do not play as nicely on modern machines. They were not given the remake quality that this one does. I am playing it currently at 4K which is a resolution that was unthinkable during the time any of these games were made.
Is this helpful to you?
