Amplitude games are never perfect but I like their art style.

You, like me were probably thinking about this glorious game… and were equally disappointed that it wasn’t. 🥲

Sounds amazing, only thing i didnt love about the last one was the combat. Fix that and its a 10/10 for me

I really liked the first one, despite its flaws. My cousin and I played hours of it. Excited to see what comes next.

I loved it as well. Honestly, all of the DLC well fitting except the last one which wasn’t bad but I wouldn’t play with it on every campaign like all of the others.
Plus being able to host and let everyone else without the DLC play with those factions was awesome. I honestly might download it and play a campaign or two.

Together? Because I’ve never been able to play any of their games without major desync problems. The same desync bug has been in every one of their games since the beginning.

We definitely had those too. Shorter games were pretty doable, and to be honest all we had time for anyway.

I played this so long ago, and every game has flaws, but I don’t recall any big issues. What are the flaws you remember these eleven years later?

Extremely lopsided balance between factions. Most had interesting mechanics, some basically useless and some wildly overpowered. Apparently the new-ish aqua faction has an overwhelming mobility advantage, things like that.
They added these game changing titans to the game at one point that you could defeat and employ, but this was either just luck of the draw or not possible for some factions.
Combat was meh go boring, generally. The “look at us go” turn based zoom in fights were very boring to watch, and more boring to play.
The game dragged. Just dragged, to finish. I played dozens of times, and i dont think i fully finished the game more than maybe 3 times.
All that said, the games world building, plot, and overall interesting mechanics makes me hopeful for this sequel. If they can keep the fascinating lore going and fix the “game” issues, i’ll be there for it.
