    I thought this is some old video YT algorithm is recommending. You have surely waited on this one.
    I don't even think "indie" when Northgard is mentioned. At this point its quality is pretty much on par with regular big studio strategy games. Visually beautiful, complex game mechanics and lot of clan variety. Also I would say some unique elements. Spent over 250 hours on it, and bought every DLC gladly.
    EDIT: Also as some pointed out already, this is primarily RTS, rather than colony survival.

    This is an amazing game, review coming really late. All clans are amazing but they have different objectives and bonuses which ask you to play differently unlike what splatter cat said.
    But you need to know the game a little bit to understand why you'd want to play such or such clans depending on how you like to play. Like the Kraken's clan which is really amazing but it takes a while to understand what is so good about it. Some clans are more focused on war, other on economy and food, other are good in research, etc. There's really a lot of things to learn about each clan but at first sight, you will probably think they all look alike and think it's not worth buying them. Also, if you want more military action, I'd advise on removing victory conditions, most of the time, a game ends with a winner without even any player meeting each other with map victory and research. Knowing the map is also very important and getting the important spots.
    This game is a gem for any strategy lover (especially when we do lack of RTS nowadays) and knowing the same company is currently working on Dune is very good news, they couldn't have chosen a better company to take care of Dune.
    Edit: The music is also amazing ! I purchased the soundtrack without regretting it :D

      You can completely ignore the DLC. All it adds is other clans to play as. You get 6 clans for free with the base game. The DLC does not add any new content whatsoever. And even then if you do like the game you can buy EVERY DLC clan (8 other clans) for very very cheap. They are only expensive if you buy them one at a time. I think I payed 10 bucks for ALL the new clans. It's actually a very nice business model for an absolutely excellent game. It really is a great game, I've put hundreds of hours into it and cannot recommend it highly enough.
