Что понравилось: раздельное производство строений и юнитов. Нейтрально: сама концепция игры – просто безликий, бездушный конструктор рас, способностей, книг и т.д. Нет сюжетных кампаний (как было в прошлых игра серии), а то, что есть, кампанией можно назвать только с очень большой натяжкой. Мне это не понравилось, но тут каждому свое. Не понравилось и за это отрицательный отзыв: 1. Плохая локализация на русский язык. 2. Очередное проявление паршивой политики Парадоксов клепать к игре кучу DLC сомнительного качества и продавать их за высокую цену.
Feels like i'm missing core parts of the game without the DLC's. And don't get me started on the DLC prices, HOLY F***!
Игра шедевр, очень вариативная и интересная, но сетевой код писал криворукий уебан - поэтому минус.
I'm over 450 hours in and I've had this game for a couple of years now. When I need to relax after a heavy day at work, or when I want to just explore what it would be like to play something in a unique new way - this is the game I come to. I enjoy that I can create a cult of goblins that follow a giant king, or that If one day I feel as if running one megacity and conquering the continent is the realm I wish to take - I am more than able to do so as well. I really enjoy the pantheon system (when you win a game with your custom faction, you can choose to ascend them to a pantheon where you can either run into them again - or replay the hero with a new buff attached to it.) What I think is most impressive is that I genuinely do not find many modern games to be as fun anymore - however - after 450 hours of this game I still continually return when I want to get lost in a new world/seed and spawn a new idea. My most recent adventure was creating three different culture/race combinations for three different variants of the same vampire (A young ranger vampire, a version of them middle aged and dark, and then an old elder vampire with mystic traits). Thank you @Paradox Interactive & Triumph Studios! You've made a fan out of me!
I want to like this game, but too many core elements don't work. RPG hero elements, but the combat is complete ass. Interesting civilization management, but the AI is balanced via lazy-af cheat multipliers. Multiplayer, but horrible, constant desyncing across the whole breadth of players. And the standard Paradox DLC creep atop it all.
The amount of DLC and the cost to fully get into this game is ridiculous... i don't think the DLC is worth the price of 20$. You can get so many good games for under the price of DLC. Put your focus elsewhere id say. Or stay to the base game but then ya feel somewhat screwed bc you don't have any of the DLC.
求求了继续出季票吧,真的真的出了秒买,不要因为热度不高就弃了啊 Please keep releasing new season passes! I will buy them the second they come out, sincerely. Don’t abandon this content just because the popularity isn’t high. +同时有英雄无敌的探索和成长;有文明的规划,扩张和资源管理;有战锤丰富且高游戏性的史诗奇幻战场;还有P社本家风格的事件链和自定义系统。兼顾这些优点的策略游戏AW4应该是独一份。 -不足之处还是因为各种自定义、种族转换和通用魔典、技能树等。不管是派系、人物、兵种、魔法,都少了些标志性的自身特点。另外神话级单位因为游戏平衡受到了太多限制,远远不能满足玩家的终极追求。
Игра хорошая и в вобрала в себя много интересных механик из других игр. Особенно понравился редактор целых фракций. ОДНАКО!! Большой минус составляет сетевая игра. Она ужасно забаговання и нормально не работает, что бы сыграть с друзьями. Мнение изменится в лучшею сторону, если исправится положение с сетевой игрой, если хотя бы давали возможность играть по локальной сети, не нагружая волшебные сервера.
greeeaaat game, trash dlc prices, check on steamdb for previous dates to buy them
Good game, but the prices of expansions and the rate they are released is frankly an insult to those who've purchased the main game, its just fragrant and uneccessary greed. It makes immortal empires look cheap. The studio really needs to DO BETTER!
