    It’s changed a lot since I played it almost 2 years ago, not just better looking but the progression system is way better than it was, it makes more sense as you research the stuff you need right now. It’s quite exciting to unlock a whole new system and then scavenge the parts to implement it, especially when you have been out on the world map with a few other guys and come back with a car full of goodies. The combat is way better, not amazing but it does enough to make you feel that you are being invaded as you scrap it out at the gate and if the gate falls you sound the general quarters alarm and all hell breaks loose.
    I did not show everything in the video, I saved some for the people that buy the game such as the end structure and the brutal magnetic storms. I know these games are not for everyone but they make a real nice break from the last week playing COD and BF, I would say that though as these City building survival games are becoming my favourite genre, I have covered loads this year.

      @jonhill4070 Před 2 lety

      Paradox's DLC's result in the deepest and richest grand strategy games ever made. No other developer will be able to even come close to that level of quality without a similar business model. You can't possibly expect to pay fifty/sixty dollars for a game with 5-10 years of developed content. Be reasonable.

    • @TheRixtah1
      @TheRixtah1 Před 2 lety

      They're pricing model is certainly exorbitant. And it is a real problem with their older titles like ck2 which has over $300 of dlc last I checked. For a game over a decade old that just isn't reasonable, but like the other guy said, it's paradox, they're the masters of 4x strategy and no one else comes close. I would definitely not buy all their dlc right away and just pick them up over the years when they go on sale

    Agreed about the storage. I remember games like Pharaoh from the 90s where you designated a storage for specific resources and little workers would not only start storing the resources in the designated storage buildings, but would take resources from other storage buildings where they weren't designated and move them to the new storage location. Definitely something that would make the whole storage management more intuitive.

    Mack are you going to try Dirge? Its an indie game that flopped quite badly in their early access launch, the devs were shocked since apparently they put a lot of work into it. They even had to lower the price by half. Very curious to know if its just not great but not curious enough to drop money to find out lol.
    I'm sure the devs would appreciate the publicity, even negative publicity at this point.

    The game looks fun. Thanks for giving a fair review of the current state of the game even if this is sponsored.

    Great update review Mack. Sponsored but uncompromised. Loving where this game is at now, so will be buying. Would be interested in your view on the 'Ultimate Colony Edition' DLC. This seems overpriced, at almost the same cost as the base game, not appearing to add much. But maybe It'll be worth it after I've a couple hundred hours under my belt.
    PS. Looking forward to your review of Halo Infinite. Seems to be well received elsewhere, but there's only a couple of channels I trust.
