Feels early access, barricade changes are interesting in a bad way. I felt the fun of building vast lanes with barricades is now gone. Has potential but honestly OMD3 feels much better. Rogue like stuff Is good but removal of purchasable barricades seems really awful, and just gonna be a case of "It's here to stay" then months way too late when people are gone they add in some "fix" that should of been there in the first place. Again maybe I'm ignorant to some ways to gain more but pay 10x the price of traps for small amount of barricades is not the move.

Just an edit, sometimes I feel like the question "Is this fun" doesn't actually get asked when making those decisions. And it just feels like they added this as a solution to a problem we don't have. Either a currency sink somewhere in the tree to add additional barricades or some other way to gain more. Simply adding in the patch notes "Added 2 additional barricades by default" is not the way. Right now because there is a limit I find myself spending first 10 mins looking for the most optimal route for them rather than actually playing the game.

Has potential to be more fun the previous games but right now I'm not confident.

(Just get it on game pass and save your money until improvements have been made)
I will say the price of this game is very reasonable but the game in it's current state is not.

Another great positive is true crossplay, before I remember in OMD3 I couldn't play with Xbox unless I got the game on Xbox gamepass but now I'm able to play with my friends on Xbox
