A call of duty that doesn't break the bank is a good call of duty.

Better graphic's, More classes and a good story. Owlcat did an amazing job.

I was excited about this, but it is very MEH. I spend more time than I want too trying to deal religious issues that are present at the start of the game. Unlike Royalty that scaled with you, this is sorta all at once and cannot be ignored but must uninstalled like a mod in order to not have to deal with some of the things you don't like.

The game will auto charge you if you ever buy a subscription and then will not refund your money even though you didn't ask to be charged for renewing.

It is a neat little game. FPS and tower defense.

The wood elves are not a bad race, and the Amber thing could be an 'OKAY' way of balancing unit cost. BUT in general they are just weaker due to their limits on conquered settlements. If I cannot take a settlement and give it walls and defend it... then I have a glaring flaw/weakness compared to other races. Also limiting conquered settlements to one building slot is a weakness no other race has to deal with... There is a reason the wood elves on AI never leave their forests, they cannot keep what they conquer.

The best thing that has happened in 2020 so far.

Pros:
Its Pathfinder
Its a 6 squad based RTS/TBS based loosely like Baulders Gate
Great character creation
Can mod characters and create more in game
Difficulty adjustments are amazing
Lots of quests and a HUGE map to explore
Follower Nok Nok

Cons:
Linear timeline with forced deadlines to complete all main quests, this limits the ability to explore all dungeons and options and makes the game feel Speed run rushed.
Limited portraits and annoying character voices
Few bugs.
Kingdom management feels clunky and a gold sink. I don't care for the BP system and wished the entire system was gold based instead.

Very fun 4x game. different from most civ 3,4,5,6, etc

Epic 4x space game that is what you would expect of Paradox. The down side is its made by Paradox so DLC's are often and will eventually bloat the game to unaffordable status. Buy it when on sale so you don't have to spend 100+ dollars on it.
