game looks okish. Its easier to read than many "modern 3d graphic". Combat is very good - better than aow3 (hero dont dominate battle, skill matters), Ai is better too (not smarter, but use many skills and tactical combat is interesting).ok i tried it here's my 5-minute playtime review:
- game looks like shit (on ultra)
- game runs like shit
- things on map are too hard to read (because the game looks like shit)
- combat probably sucks but i didn't get to turn 2 to try it out
- shadow magic better
- uninstalled
i didnt play it anymore (not a fan of influencing abutment provinces), while i did aow1 (i like capturing points - there and back). So agree with uninstall.
EDIT:
At the bottom of this wall of text I put some more of my impressions about tactical combat.
TLDR Hp to damage of all tier of units seems reasonably balanced.
Using skills is not a waste of turn
AI is using lots of skills (its interesting to watch Ai vs Ai battles).
