Expeditions: Rome - the final Expeditions game from Logic Artists

This is currently 14 Euro, is it worth it?

It's the worst of the three, combat it too gimmicky, characters designs are woke cancer even if you have tolerance for that stuff it's actually distracting, upgrades for your character are one dimensional, nothing close to what they had in Vikings and other units you have are even more boring.

 

[Infinitron]

Viking's character building was too complicated IMO. In Rome, you have to develop a squad of blank slate praetorians in addition to yourself and your companions. It was too much for many people even with the system it has.

No, it's utter dog shit.

I didn't finish the first chapter. Most of the missions are endless waves of enemy and boring objections to rush.

 

[fantadomat]

too complicated

There is no too complicated,there is just too simple people.

This is going to be in the next Humble Choice, good thing I decided against buying it now, lol.

Always first Tuesday of the month.

I was thinking the same. If the leaks are right, the December HC should be great.

Worth it with choice? You get Elex II on top of it though i hear that's a shit game lul.

Elex 2 is just an asset flip of Elex 1. The same exact game, mostly on the same map, with a few tweaks here and there.

There's enjoyment to be had here, if you liked E1, but overall it just smacks of staleness and creative bankruptcy.

 

[Lyric Suite]

So i loaded up the first (Expedition), which i own on steam but never played, and i'm already having trouble with 50% female ratio in ever possible role and didn't even make it past the character creation screen.

I asume Rome is even worse with full on niggers everywhere etc, right?

The Humble deal is a good one but this kind of shit rustles my jimmies too much.

 

[Lacrymas]

It must be exhausting to constantly be triggered by everything.

They packed a lot of wymbyn upfront it gets better in later parts of the game.

Must be amazing to be utterly unbothered by the world going down the drain.

 

[Grunker]

u wot mate

 

[IHaveHugeNick]

I think he means it's would be too complicated to have the same system in Rome where you have to juggle all the minions.

 

[The Wall]

They think this societal decline and collapse simply means more niggers on the screen. No. It means, eventually, niggers, whether robot niggers, KFC eating niggers or government niggers fucking you to Death. They really think any of this will stop or stay at this lvl, which midwits find comfy enough. Noooooo

Prepare for veeery Uncomfy Times, dear Midwits

I bet when they joke about white genocide some of them actually mean it and most would go with if it actually happened.

So I gave this a spin, just finished the tutorial island and a bit more.

I don't hate it, I like the aesthetics, the realistic character portraits (yeah, nogs everywhere... well at least there aren't female centurions I guess), the writing is startlingly non-retarded compared to most of the contemporary Western production and the combat can hold my attention.

Thing is I much prefer the traditional Viking TB combat instead of these finicky puzzles. Hated that shit in Blackguards 2, not a fan of them here. And even though I've already done three legion battles I'm still struggling with most of the mechanics. I just can't wrap my head around what some things actually do and what strategy is best at countering what. Seems to me I always press some buttons randomly and I win. This is either way above my IQ or it's hilariously badly explained.

I'll give it a chance still but I can already tell it's not gonna turn into one of the best RPGs ever made like Viking did, that's for sure.

 

[Oropay]

I haven't played E:Rome since the legion battles were reworked, but they were always mindless. The game calculates all the stats for you, so you just mouse over and pick the one with the best outcome. The main thing is that you want to destroy or completely rout the enemy. If you let them retreat, they'll join forces with another army, and eventually you'll have to fight a huge conglomerate

 

[Barbarian]

It was literally the most boring part of the game.

 

[cvv]

Yea I got the option to destroy the enemy once. No idea how I did it tho. Is it just random? Can you force it? I really can't fucking understand that retarded system.

 

[Oropay]

Can you force it?

You have to reduce the enemy forces below a certain point. I think you can also chase them as they flee. Can't really remember, it's been a while.

Expeditions: Rome is utter shite. This is coming from someone who thought Conquistador was a fun game, and Viking is one of the better isometric RPGs of the last 15-20 years. Huge letdown with Rome. They learned nothing from the first two games, released a shit nugget, and were promptly dispatched by video game gods with poetic justice. Everything about Rome sucked, constant switching between 30 different layers, none of them good, turd combat with jumping through hoops for developers instead of actual fun combat system, stupid pointless meta-layers like army battles, woke stuff to kill the historical flavor, think of anything dumb, it will be in this game.

Viking's character building was too complicated IMO. In Rome, you have to develop a squad of blank slate praetorians in addition to yourself and your companions. It was too much for many people even with the system it has.

If managing a multitude of minions requires shallow systems, perhaps they shouldn't have included them in the game, and focused on a small group of characters, like in Viking, which was incidentally by far their best game.

Worth it with choice? You get Elex II on top of it though i hear that's a shit game lul.

2022 was a shit year. Rome, ELEX 2, and Elden Ring were all huge disappointments.

Elex 2 is just an asset flip of Elex 1. The same exact game, mostly on the same map, with a few tweaks here and there.

Fake news. ELEX 2 was not an asset flip of ELEX, it was a much worse game, where they somehow lost most of what made ELEX fun. Worse factions, worse world, worse story, somehow worse combat (which is not easy to achieve)...
