Elemental Forums
Is it any good? I'm at work and keep checking the forum for news.
No news is usually good news. If it sucked people would be on here straight away bitching about this or that.
Please someone provide some feedback to kill my boredom!
It seems to be a good update so far. I am playing on hard and all the AIs are outpacing me easily, I guess not constantly committing suicide makes a big difference. The new fallen terrain is much grittier and I think it adds deeper atmosphere. The new faction abilities are cool as well. I will have to play some more before I can really talk about it in depth.
I've not been able to play too long, but the starts have seemed better. New art (I think the trees look better). Earlier City 2nd level works very nicely.
I have been playing on normal with dense monsters to assess systems and the early game seems a bit better balanced. More when I get a few more handfuls of hours in.
Game is becoming a lot more like Master of Magic. Balance is created through many overpowered abilities, but everyone has them so....
All in all, it's a hell of a lot more fun than previous updates.
I don't know that MOM took it to this extreme, but I like the OP aspects of the different nations, it gives the game it's own personality. I played a little bit as Tarth last night, was interesting not being attacked by monsters.
They really worked on the monster AI. Played a game without having Deadly monsters (out of nowhere) crash into your 2nd or 3rd city is good.
Still want to check it out more - so far so good. So very good.
