>2024... I am forgotten
>>1756240I've only ever seen videos and that ui is so fucking hideous whatever slimy subclan of parajews designed it should be publicly hanged
>>1756240Wait, it even came out? I was sure they've simply cancel it during dev.
>>1756240There was a thread that just died from lack of posts today that you could have posted in. If you didn't have anything to say over the last week of its life, why bother to shitpost now?
>>1756340Not op, but that's kind of the point of the thead>Game gets hyped for half a year>Eventually has a release>Nobody even notices>The handful of people that does notice find it terrible
>>1756340>Implying the OP of that thread isn't the OP of this thread and is just trying to bait engagement through negativity
>>1756367I am forgotten... until schizos bring it up again.>>1756345Honestly, a lot people say this was hyped, but was it? I go search for Paradox sometimes, but I genuinely don't remember this shit being advertised. In fact only heard about it in this place.
>>1756371>but I genuinely don't remember this shit being advertisedThat's just your dementia. The main problem this had was right at the announcement. It had a huge marketing campaign and build up from paradox where each of paradox's studios would publish a tweet about it and some cryptic image and everyone was discussion what it could possibly be. Eventually it got leaked that it was a civ competitor and that made people more hyped. Then it got announced and everyone had a very negative reaction because it's a very very low budget and very ugly indie title that Paradox picked up and tried to market as a big title. The game itself is fine and has some great ideas, but that negative initial reaction has stopped so many people trying it so it's dead in the water.
>>1756376>tweetOkay I don't go there as much, but it was literally just a half-a-year before release? Devs must of been rushed.
>>1756381It's not that it was a rush I don't think, but possible. I think it's more a game PDX picked up while the devs were late in development. Happens all the time with publishers. See something promising, throw a bit of money their way and publish the game with the hope that it makes a great return.
>>1756384Yeah, that's why the hype actually died, people saw it wasn't a new game but a game that was known to be in development already when people thought it was going to be a brand new game.
>>1756240I feel this could've been a good game if it had like six to twelve months more in development. Their "roadmap" promises future updates for features that every respectable 4x game should have on release. The core gameplay is solid, the "ages" are an interesting concept at least, and it manages to strike a good balance between classic Civ-style 4X gameplay and new/unique features. It just misses too many points for basic shit.
>>1756457I think it's just a shame that they saw how identityless nations worked for Humankind and still went ahead with it. It really did need a cash injection and another year to give it some personality.
>>1756240game is decent but i already explored and replayed it multiple times and there's really no point to do it again until more content being released
>>1756457>every respectable 4x gamewas dogshit upon release and is only well remembered like two expansions later.
>>1756748People used to actually make complete games. You don't know this because you weren't born yet at the time, but it's true.
>>1756751No, people used to accept broken games as complete because it was more of a pain to get patches.

>>1756240Next time, think more about the art style and maybe put some effort into it. Who TF wants to play mobile game looking ass game on a PC? The art style is everything
>>1756240I'll play it again when an expansion or 2 come out
>>1760549>muh artstyleplease nigga
>>1756376>The game itself is fineIt really isn't. The balance is non-existing, the gameplay loop is a joke and it's so hyper-aggressive, it makes even regular PDX stuff look like peaceful building games.And then there is the quality of the AI and the performance of the game written in spaghetti, as if any of the issues weren't bad enough
>>1756748>>1756787>t. zoomershit that started with Civ 5
>>1760513Holy reddit tier writing
>>1761314>Reddit post>In reddit writingShocking!
>>1761557He might just mean that whole hidden plotline within a 4x game told through mysterious notes thing's writing.

>>1760738Yes, in order to immerse yourself in the game it absolutely MUST look good
>>1756345I stole it on release.It certainly was more fun than Civ6 and even vanilla V.But absolutely not worth the release price because>graphics are just too shit compared to TBS from 15 years ago>for the amount of copying done from Call to Power, they cut the most important part - wonders and their absolute best cinematics.
>>1765558same... Game is a good alternative to the tired civ games but the price is too steep and they already have dlcs planned.
>cool feature to go into alternate ages if you're ahead>but you have to go back to a normal one afterwardsif anything you should have been able to push things even further off the rails, I understand that's not realistic for budget reasons but they still shouldn't have shot the appeal in the foot by forcing you back to normality
>>1765683yeah i really hate this. I avoid age of alchemy just to avoid the awful age of revolution random spam of revolutionaries.
>>1765558>The only thing zoomer can focus on is muh graphics and muh presentation>While being chickenshit about piratingSaid all that, the game is bad - due to how bad its actual mechanics are (rather than cool ideas behind them), how bugged it is and how it's effectively an indie dev Civ-clone with fitting level of competence and budget put into making it, except it got picked by PDX and hyped into a Civ killer in a campaign that cost more than making the game
>>1766342doesn't help they wanted to make a spiritual sucessor to call to powers and zoomers have no idea wtf it is... God, i miss the OG call to power. Janky as fuck but so fresh
