I love this game, the variety of builds is unmatched and I lose myself in theorycrafting build ideas. Also non-sponsored plug; Check out the AoW4 minionart site, it's a Godir send for making builds and checking nearly everything in the game outside of the game.
[h1] The short review: [/h1] I am absolutely in love with this game. [h1] The long review: [/h1] This game literally has it all. I've had this game on my wishlist for about one whole year, always seeing it at full 60€ or in a discount for abt. 40€ but I always hesitated, Why? I received Age of Wonders Planetfall a bit earlier and really tried to get to like it but I just couldn't. It just didn't click with me. It had some really cool concepts but I don't know. I just never got warm with it. Bun then, when my mother gifted me a 50€ Steam Gift Card, and he game was on Sale for 35€ I just decided to go with it. And what could I say, it was the best decision I could've made. I am currently working fulltime, bought the game about a year ago and mostly it goes like this: -play the game for 1-2 months straight -don't play for 1-2 months But for the last couple of montsh I played it nonstop. If you like strategy games and like fantasy, you will love this game. The variation of tomes to cast spells, realm traits, society traits, races, race transformations, ancient wonders, enemies, maps, story realms, and the near endless possibilities of combining these is just so great, Every game feels like something totally different, and unique. It's just so much fun, to create different rulers and factions, fight against others you created, ascending them to your pantheon, having one ruler you really liked to play as constantly hunt you through your different games, testing the different realm traits and so on. Multiplayer sometimes is a bit whacky, as it crashes sometimes but I have about 80 hours played with my friend, who is really into civ 6 and hea also really enjoyed it. I could literally yap about this game for hours but as a final conclusion: You like fantasy? And you're looking for a fantasy strategy game that has anything you could want from a fantasy game and is quite beginner friendly? This is your game And with the frequent release of new DLCs, which I own every single one of, the game keeps adding very exciting new stuff every so often. 10/10 for me. Currently on abt. 500h and 500h more on the way. Oh btw it has workshop support with SO many different cool mods, that even after you think you've seen everything in the base game, the mods come in clutch and just say "nah, you haven't"

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.

First off, I've played this game on a friend's PC for way longer a couple of years back and I really liked the game. It's fun. When it's not crashing into oblivion. I thought, ok, I'll wait for a year or two and then get the game for myself. After the first combat situation the game froze. I've tried fixing it, looking up solutions online but no luck. For the kind of money Paradox are asking, I'd expect a buttery smooth experience. The game really is a lot of fun. Different races, builds, skills, customization options... But the whole thing is pointless when they are printing DLCs like there is no tomorrow with little bug fixing. The price is just too damn steep for a game I have to fix myself afterwards. Obviously there are people for whom the game runs fine or they have found a way around the bugs but for me, there was no way around. Premium prices for a premium product? Fine. This is a very cool game but it is not a premium product given how often it crashes and how little was done in three years to make it stable. I cannot recommend it sadly since I don't know who else will run into the same issues.
CRASH ALL THE TIME!!! I don't know what to do.
Returning player here—I bought the game when it first came out. Am I glad I gave this game another go. It needed some time in the oven, but it has aged really well. It hasn't crashed for me. I read a lot of reviews saying it does, but that must be something on their end. The customization options are done really well, and so is the gameplay itself. It's a true 4X game at its core. Yes, there's a lot of DLC, but you don't need any of it. And if you've passed the 100-hour mark, who cares if you want to spend some money on DLC to enhance the gameplay and replayability?
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 $25 sale price. Spend your money on other games.
Finally a high fantasy 4x game done right. If you can make peace with Paradox's DLC policy, this is a fabulously deep game that combines the tactics and gameplay loop of HOMM 3 with the depth and customization of Stellaris and Civilization. The initial learning curve is a bit steep but pays off.
I want to play it, I played the free weekend a while back. I came to the store page again to see if you could actually get into the game but as it is 95$ on sale for the game and dlc and everything it's unapproachable. Leaving this as a downvote because of paradox dlc policy.
The game itself is really good and fun, don't get me wrong. But the constant crashing, multiplayer bugs, softlocks, abysmal performance and other shenannigans are not worth the price of the game, let alone all the DLCs. I'll still continue playing because I am stubborn, but I cannot, in good faith, recommend purchasing this. Not for a full price.
全战中土三部曲+文明 魔典给了过多的自由度，种族兵不是很突出，最优bd是彩虹同质化 把技能书研究透了就那么几种，比较无聊 但是不研究透也能玩，反正这种游戏人机是大头，打起来还算可以，战锤玩腻了玩玩这个也挺新鲜的 但是如果没玩过这个类型的还是建议去隔壁体验鼠人科技yesyes 大概等同于，如果你觉得CF很好玩，那作为一名玩家你一定要玩一下CS
