Little BRO Rat
I give up. I tried so freaking hard to like this game and for awhile I did, but after completing the campaign *cough* bad tutorial *cough* and playing the sandbox game to completion a few times I have to say I'm bored. It's just boring because of all of the issues mentioned in this thread and others.
The AI sucks and is inconsistent, the spells are boring beyond belief although I did like the spells that you could cast on your cities. However, the tactical spells are all the same with a few minor differences between them. The races and factions are an interesting idea, but once again not enough diversity. I'm not even sure if there is a difference between the races. You customize each one exactly the same and it seems you can put any race leader in any faction. You can use certain land improvements only with certain factions (not sure about races), but in the end it didn't make that much of a difference. I still don't know what the death worship does for the Empire of Resoln. It says it gives a 10 HP bonus, but to who or what does it give it to. It didn't give it to my leader. Maybe it was for the cities. I have no idea and I played that faction 3 times to completion.
If what Brad says is true then I might change my mind, but for now it's just boring. Forget this game I'm going back to Solium Infernum or even Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic. At least there I know they are fun games and more importantly they are finished!!!
Edit: I will give them credit for the quests. I did have fun with that (once I figured out how to advance my "questing" level), but even that is bugged. The huts won't dissappear for certain quests and I couldn't get into some demon dungeon thing. It just kept disappearing. Argghhhh, I just give up.
