  • Millennia is playable for free during Steam Next Fest between February 5-12, so check it out here: millennia.paradoxinteractive....
    I love Millennia's new take on the 4X genre, and I wanna thank Paradox Interactive so much for sponsoring this video!
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Millennia is an exciting new 4X grand strategy game published by Paradox Interactive, but developed by C Prompt Games, and the reason it's so exciting, is that we finally have a Civilization-like title, that actually tries to be different and deeper. It not only plays great and offers some really exciting Age mechanics and National Spirits that change up gameplay for every playthrough, but we have the tried-and-true selection of mechanics here, that I'm certain will make every Paradox player smile with joy. In this video, I give you my thoughts on the game thus far, while the video also services as a guide and tutorial to Millennia's first 3 ages.
    Remember that you can also play Millennia yourself during Steam Next Fest for a full week! Let me know your thoughts on both Millennia and this video in the comments, and make sure to leave a like and subscribe to the channel :)

    I like how this game makes a little twist to the 4X formula, but I'd like it to go a bit deeper.
    The problem I have with games like civ or humankind is that I have a hard time playing a historical nation in a non historical map. I like how here the nation is just a name and you can pick how it develops, but I think that a Stellaris style faction design, where you can create everything would be very interesting. That's why I have moved to things like Age of Wonders and Planetfall, which also have an interesting take on battles.
    The combat seems a bit of a miss tho, it's a bit more complex than in civ, but not by much, and it doesn't have any player interaction apparently. I play other PDX games, that's not a bother, but I don't think I'm going to watch those combat animations very often, I will quickly find a way to deactivate them or super accelerate them like on civ.

    Honestly, the combat seems rough and the weakest part of this game. I'll check it out during Next Fest though and see how it stacks up playing it. But everything else sounds really intriguing! I've been really excited for Millenia and Ara: History Untold and how they will hopefully add to the 4X space.

    Whats sad about paradox games is the main game comes barebones, and it's only finished with 20 paid updates, you know dlcs that improve the base game. In the end the game will cost 300€ or more like all their other games 😂. But let us hope they don't do that with this one.

    • @TheRewasder97
      @TheRewasder97 Před 4 měsíci +3

      Incorrect, PDX games come finished, but instead of moving to making the 13th release of the same game, they keep improving upon them. Most DLC updates focus on bringing specific things to specific factions, some other bring general things interesting to everyone, but most of the time they are expansions over something that is already good. This updates also come with a big chunk of free updates for everyone. It's better to pay (if you want that content) about 20-30 moneys a year to expand and improve something you already love than expending 70-90 yearly in the same or an ever worse version of the same football or FPS game. Yes, after a few years it makes it look like there is a huge pay entrance fee, but that's not really true. The most necessary dlcs are usually at a good discount or in a bundle, and most other dlcs are so specific that you don't really need them unless you want to go that route.

    I don't know... I'm 1/2 excited 1/2 disappointed. I like some stuff I see and concerned with others. It looks like civ 3/4 city spam again. 2-3 spaces is too close, should be min 4 spaces. Better yet, it should have pre designated city spots like Old World has. Best idea for a 4x game ever. Humankind and Civ are always ruined for me by the moronic spots the AI founds cities in. As far as tech goes... 6 techs and era? YIKES... that's like what, 60-72 techs? (not sure how many eras there are) Thats REALLY light. I really hope we don't go warrior-swordsman-musket man-infantry here, lame ass crap like that. Im kind of worried.
    Looks like its gonna be same old, same old: Weak out of the box, good 3 years later after several expansion packs, patches, and player made mods.
