having to play PVP to finish story line/quest when u have 0 interest in is going to be the downfall of this game

Can't Recommend in current state-Game looks great and has a ton of potential

Negatives

Food Management- is a joke beyond joke, Each house has can have up to 4 families if fully maxed out and upgraded-but produce extremely little food with Veggies/Apples/Eggs---You can choose goats but for some reason goats ONLY provide leather? no food- Don't plan on building big population centers because you will hit the Food wall and your people will starve to death every winter regardless

Farms-Ox are completely useless-Fertility for plants is wacky- If you plant 1 season of crops with usually ranging from 5-30% yield for total field then your screwed even after a Fallow year-workers are extremely slow and doing anything so building big farms to fully support your team is wasted-can only plant Rye/Wheat/Linen/Barley materials-no produce so you get dinged on food diversity which you will need to keep your people happy and upgrade your buildings..

Mines-Mines are very basic nothing extremely thrilling about them go set your team on them until they are dry then destroy it and move onto next territory

Tech-the map that you play on is ruled by one-two people-but each town has its own tech so each town has to REALLY specialize in ONE THING ONLY-you cant spread it to have a even production town or its death!

Trade-Trade is slow 30 days for animals--You can buy sheep/lambs but cant slaughter for meat-another food shortage problem really? more trade routes you do as well the progressively more expensive its gets always Import food food and more food if you want to survive

Influence/Silver-Each town area has there own regional income to buy/sell items but your kingdom also has its own treasure grove-Silver-Meh very slow to collect generally (can kill bandit camps to get a small boost but extremely hurts your villages) silver is really only used to for a Settler essential and buying retinue troops + Influence is very hard to come buy only ways to increase is kill bandit camps--Sorry to those that want to play sandbox sim building you probably wont be able to buy any land for 30-40 hours of real time gameplay-Or you can also increase your houses-which is very hard past t2 because of guess what FOOD!!!

Housing-Dont bother building the extended double house for the 4th family-means you only achieve 1 food income per house while feeding 4 families-silly concept- Upgrading houses to T3 (Max tier) is difficult and time consuming must have tons of food variety/church/Bar etc

Professions-Not being able to set how much your buildings make for trade professions is extremely sad-alot of resources are limited minus wood to an extent-I dont need to build 10000 bows and have them sell for 1 silver a piece at 10 at a time once a month. Lets get a min/max on these-Houses either need to produce food or can produce your oddball stuff-Clothing/Blacksmithing items/Weapons/Shields/Boots having your houses do these limits your food once again. RIP

Positives

-It is fun on how can truly build your village however you want and generally it works on-Road snipping is very NICE-

-Combat is fun for the first 3 rounds then pretty basic after that no large armies truly but you can set your troops to do alot of different things which is refreshing

-For 25 bucks atm its almost worth playing this is Alpha-Hopefully with a single Developer this game just doesnt turn into another Star citizen money grab for a 1/10 of a potential great game and does something with it but will have to wait and see!

Game is a blast playing with friends community is one of the worst i have seen in awhile most teammates in ranked just leave after 30 seconds if other team is ever up GG its 1v2 1v3 rest of game if ur teammates do stay in match they are just calling the team trash and scoring for other team so it turns into 1v3 in 2's such a pity going from a plat player to bronze cause ur teammates are so god awful and this game is totally unforgiving u cant win by urself

If ur looking for a RPG/RTS game with star wars LORE get KOTOR 1/2 10/10

Graphics are A+ a little hard to get used to but once u do its a blast blowing up people

If u enjoy playing Mechwarrior TableTop then this game is a MUST PLAY!

One of the better Total War's out there worth the Money...even the DLC is worth when on sale...biggest negative is the system requirments for this game but even now at this point it isnt terrible every faction has its own unique soldiers that makes the game fun and u can channel any different direction with no faction being to over powered compared to another...buildings are simplier compared to other TW's which is nice to save some time but you still need to manage the happiness and food of ur towns so u just cant build all military buildings in provinces with no happy/food buildings which is a nice balance...all in all would def recommend this game to everyone

Has a chance to be a really good game.....different characters and maps with scenarios makes gameplay between offense and defense decent...ubisoft is screwing up though with the toxic behavior spam though everyone reports everyone so when u get banned for doing nothing GG.....biggest knock on this game is just the overall Toxic community this game has in casual.....if u are getting tked ur team acts like ai's and just bum rush without firing a shot....i havent been in a single casual match where someone hasnt Tked another such a sad stat....Great Game but with horrible community this game gets a 1/5 stars currently.....if u do happen to get a decent squad or some buddies this game is a blast to play with 5 but good luck.

After 1200 hours in this game and it seems like half my life wasted this game is very good for how cheap it is!
