Сама игра понравилась, давно не было стратегий где ты сам делаешь свою фракцию НО ЕСТЬ одно НО, оптимизация игры отвратительная, я не знаю может мне не повезло с пк геймингом, однако такой плохой оптимизации я даже в хогвартс легаси не видел, из часа игры половину я просидел в загрузке, игра вылетает после некоторых СТАРТОВЫХ битв, я уже всё пробовал и графику понизить, и игру переустановил, но геймлей всё равно выглядит также: запустил, подождал загрузки (мин 5), вступительная катсцена, подождал загрузки (мин 10), короткий пролаг, запускаю раунд, пролаг, создаю расу, лютое мыло, подтверждаю, пролаг, подождал загрузки (мин 5), пошел драться, подождал загрузки (мин 2), победил, после рулетка(25% вылетит, 75% нет), пролаг, подождал загрузки (мин 1), поставил строительство, юнита и разведа, новый ход, повторить выше сказанное и всё это сопровождается периодическим мылом. Также нет желания играть в парадокс геймплей, где что бы играть полноценно нужно купить дополнений на 3 эти игры (это ещё и по скидке). Подводя итоги: я очень ждал скидки на игру и сама игра мне понравилась, и возможно я бы смог починить эту оптимизацию, но впечатление от игры уже испорчено так что рефанд
If you're not 100% looking for grand turn base strat. that feels like the Total War: Warhammer games.
Look at the prices of those DLCs. You can literally get four of the best games ever made for the price of a single DLC for this game. It's greed. That's what it is. And by the way, you can create 90% of the contents of those DLCs yourself with the mod tools. Don't support predatory and abusive business practices.
great tactical depth and replayability
Sehr viele Möglichkeiten seine fav Civ zu erstellen. Coole Spells und Einheiten und eine Menge Spaß mit jedem Update immer wieder neu.
Polished but boring. The polish, 1. Voice lines for texts, 2. visuals, 3. game systems such as tomes, 4. the battles from 'campaign' to turn based combat; which can be auto resolved and rewatched to see how the a.i. handles it. I like this a lot that you can auto resolve and watch how the a.i. battles with your troops. 4. The hero's you can recruit - skill upgrades and equipment upgrades are quite fun 5. and so on can prolly list more etc. All these aspects of the game have been polished as I said and like there's a lot of 'money' backing this game. But honestly I found it a bit boring and stale for my tastes. I've also played Crusader Kings 3 so this isn't the only 'Paradox' published game I've played. Gameplay seems simple. Politics seems simple. Map seems simple. I just don't enjoy it. As I said, high polish but boring. Then you have to factor in price for base game was $25 on sale for me but in my opinion its not worth that price. You need to consider all the DLC and content you might want to buy to actually be fun for you individually and the game probably will even out at the $40 to $50 or more price range. You're basically not buying the game on sale -.- . Paradox has a reputation for this DLC habit so its not a surprise but seriously you have to factor in the base game is not good enough from my experience even at $25 sale price. Spend your money on other games.
不错,个人觉得比文明7好很多,不比文明6差,是我喜欢的魔幻内容,而且至少很丰富。 但是,但是,作为魔幻题材,高级魔法的压迫感完全没有,高级种族转化更多是亏属性加特性的,某种意义上只是对策卡或者套路拼图,完全没有设定上的b格,这点很毒、很坏。 而神话单位比如龙,堕天使后期才能出,但是后期神话兵有多么没用玩过的都懂。神话兵更多是野外刷出来恶心玩家的evp工具。我非常不喜欢这种为了平衡把高级兵种弄一堆弱点的设计思路。一点成就感没有,你这样设计我为什么要点高级魔典?高级魔法就应该华丽而强大,兵种就应该阶级分明等级森严,龙和天使就应该有压迫感而不是被凡人射爆,现在这种设计后期很无聊。 最后,附庸的指挥需要加强,现在附庸一个阵营完全没意义,不能指挥他不能限制他也不能压榨他,我不知道这个附庸有什么用。
본격적인 스토리라고 해야할지...를 시작하지도 않고 맛뵈기로만 했는데 3시간이 증발해있는 미친 게임 이런 게임은 처음인데 의외로 맛있음
I've enjoyed this game a lot. When you make a faction there's a ton of customizability compared to other strategy games. How you build your faction, what tomes you go for to progress, and what you prioritize changes the flow of the game tremendously so there's a lot of room to do things right and do things wrong. Choices matter. As someone who loves to fiddle with builds, this game is a ton of fun. It does have the vampiric monetization that plagues civ type games, however, so it's hard to fully recommend. Pretty much always if you're going for a thematic faction it could be greatly improved with a tome or ruler type from a DLC. You might make a Shadow/Order vampire faction with Thrones of Blood like I did, for instance, and realize that the Tome of the Revenant from Archon Prophecy would go hard and really help pull things together. You might make a faction based on battlemages, and realize that the Tome of the Tentacle from Eldritch Realms is insane for battlemages. It's very easy to get drawn into buying a bunch of DLC like that because you want your faction to feel good to play.
You being a DRAGON is a 10/10 instantly. I don't care if it's DLC it's money well spent. Oh game is very good an addicting I guess. Still all of that is secondary to becoming a DRAGON.
