I cannot recommend this game. After thousands of city builder hours and "hundreds" of city builder games.
This just barely meets the minium requirements for handling in my book.
Content you can always add.. but when the UI and core feathures are.. off putting.. I tend to back away.

When "Pharaoh" and "Emperor" did this 20x better 20+ years ago.
No need to reinvent the wheel everytime..


Kind of sad, been hoping and waiting for this game. But No. I do not give a crap "about 100 missions or 100 Monuments.."
I want to beable to controll my camera.
See no item pops. (Are we playing on a playstation 2?)
I want MORE audio options like DIALOG.
I want MORE mouse options to decrease scrolling (Holy hell, scroll until you die.. 10 scrolls from max to min view.. WHY)


Why does the water look line Chainmail? Like a gritt o.o?
Why do all the people in the city look like a cheap clone? (I understand they are lowclass.. but come on!)
There are so much clunkyness... jeeze.
Camera handling.. everything.. just feels offputting.
You can go 90* down and see.. but you cannot tilt up....What?!
If I wanna have a overview of my City I cannot? But you lock the camera at an odd angle?
WHY do I need to see the bark on the trees at close zoom but cannot see my people when I zoom out.. lmao.
Constant item/vegetation popping due to poor view/optimizing. Very off putting when you move around.
And its there 100% of the time.

But I guess the developer team wants to you play in "first person mode" when planning and building a city..

Thanks for the EARLY ACCESS.. sure feels like it.
Maybe I will be back in like 5 more years...

I think I will just stick with the old classics. Maybe one day we get a remaster/remake.

####################AFTER FEEDBACK FROM DEVELOPER##########
###############################################################

Thanks for the Feedback Emi! :KneelingBow:
I Will start with saying I wish Steam could had a nautral feedback section.

"Old school vides" Are good. And I did see the effort.
I felt it was like the old games in style and layout.
But UI and some other stuff was not.
(I havent played the game for a long time.. less than 1 hour but I have seen other play)

But to me the game still feels a tad to EARLY ACCESS.
(And I got PTSD from EA games..)
I think if you focus on the Items pops and Camera angles you get far.
Then later you can do a few UI changes or needed here and there.
Just becasue old games lacked Camera movement does not jusity new games having the same issue. But if people do not wanna change their angle, well they do not have to.)

But please let the people that wanna change it, change it. If I wanna tilt my camera into the sun... let me. I try to communicate with RA... (Ra the sun god):eaglegag:
Same for Keybindings, mouse controll etc etc. These are personal prefrences.. and cannot be "default" for us all. (many games keep forgetting this..)

And People do not wanna "learn" an complicated middle road, they want easy quick fixes. Thats just how we as humens work.

Bad example: (just a consept, and I talk about UI not Gameplay.)
If you can do the task with 1-2 clicks people are happy.
When you need to do 5-10 clicks to preform 1 task.. you over kill it.
And over time people will avoid it.

I think this game has alot of potential. So I am not hating or negativ.
-Even tho I sound harsh and unforgiving.
Facts are facts.

And this is how I talk.

Team feelings does not add to the function of the game or how it feels to us.
I know the feel when people "shoot" down your "balloon."

But again most games or projects of any kind has an tremendous amount of work and heart put into it. Unless the people that worked on it.. never cared. (Not saying)

But keep in mind, I never hated on anything rather pointed out what I felt could be better.

I have kept an eye on this games sins 2018 or 2019.
If I need to wait 5 more years, then I will wait. (I rather hope not):feste:
As the item poping and camera I think you should fix asap.

Becasue it's what most people will react to right at start.


PS: Congrats on the release :) :praisesun: :KneelingBow:

Early Access Review
@11hours
I didn't notice it had been 11 hours.. so 10/10 from me.
Then I can remove numbers as time progresses. But so far, very good.
@39+ hours
Game is still 10/10 from me, that people find some stuff grindy and hard.. I do not count as a bad game design, you can edit everything in settings.. so *Thumbs up from me!*

I am quite impressed by the amount of settings we can edit and change.
And if the game UI cannot help you, then the game savefile can.
Yes I speak of singelplayer, I do not play Multiplayer/online. We coop 3-5 people, with me as Host.
(I even keep my game running for almost 24hours without and crash or issues as I use it as a "mini server")
Works very good.

So yeah... Maybe a few things can be more convenient.. but overall a quiet stronk game.
Like being able to edit current "player number" in the menu, I just edited it in the savefile.
As I started with 3 friends then 2 more wanted to join.. but we didn't wanna make a new world.
So I just edited the savefile so it can keep 10 now. This should be enabled in the load options.
Same as Password changes...

People that QQ about grind and high HP mobs.. Learn to use the settings.
Or play on a lower difficulty if you get man handled.

Game is not ment to be played as SOLO, so you gotta tweak it. Atleast you got AI companions, which works some what decent.

Much Love! And I am yet to experience a crash btw, 1 out of my team mates that play on a roten potato had 1 crash... I blame him.

Yes! there is a few bits here and there.. but overall very very good.
And BTW, the game has never crashed.. not sure what everyone else is doing. But works like a charm for me.
Some FPS issues here and there.. but nothing game breaking.

Cannot complain, a tad different but not bad. CIV's feel way more variated.
But for good and bad.

7/10 (Biggest pluss for me is that you cannot use a sword to break stonewalls.. about damn time)
Biggest minus for me is the menu UI... horrible.
Less unit commands
Less map types
"less choices" aint always good... just to many choices aint good either..

But this is just plain dumb... so henche the score.

You can get mods to fill all these gaps.. but they break every update ofc.

Game feels way better now than before. But they still have some stuff to work on. Still enough for a recommend I guess. For now.

On the stats issue during coop etc.
I havent tested more just avoided to do it in the cooped world and when hosting.
Worked fine so far but not taking the chance again.

"Old Review"
This game just get worse and worse.. the developers are not in contact with their playerbase at all.. and keep screwing them over..

I cannot recommend playing it as this game is just full of cow poop and errors... right now.. Like legit corruption of save files and way worse crap.... It's just disgusting.. Feels like an Early Access game.

Their online rewards system is a damn rip off and scam... wrong stats on weps.. gems/runes not working..
Just loads of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Wanna give your friend a lvl 10+ wep for a new char as fun? You cannot do that.. as it will bug his whole character to do "negativ" value damage.. Like I told about earlier.

And to top it all off.. their attitude is so nasty.. you wanna slap them hard.


_____________
"Old Review"
After I started a new and never traded or did anything in my friends world the game went some what smooth.. like stat wise.. preformance is still.. like an potato.
(So I guess I can say it some fun...)

____________
"Old Review"
Been quite painless after the new character and avoiding to do anything in the cooped world.

Made a new character, and now it works.... Looks like my old character was bugged.. MOST LIKELY Due to me upgrading my wep/leveling in my friends world while we cooped. 10/10 horse poop...

So gotta give it a "no recommend" until they address this issue. As it made me waste 30 hours of game play... Damn ignorant dimwits.
________________
"Old Review"
Game is in a broken state.. PVP and COOP is broken beyond belief..
Like if you coop 1 guy does "90%" and 1 guy does "10%" of the damage as he is nerfed/gimped...


Same ♥♥♥♥ for PvP.. what the ♥♥♥♥..
Player 1 Player 2
lvl 100 vs lvl 100
nude.
Player 1 does 50 damage Player 2 does 15.
Swap sides (host)
Player 1 does 53 damage Player 2 does 13

What is going on..?
Then I made a new char.. tested it the same way and the results were OFF THE GRID
The lvl 14 did way more damage than lvl 100....

Even in melee... without gear. wat is going onnnnn in hereeeeee

So made another fresh character and PvPed, fresh vs Fresh.. damage was all good.
No issues.
Broken as math-scaling and coding.. All we can do is hope they fix it..

10/10 Game, Over all very good.

Only thing I can pick on is the inventory system and combat speed/turn timer.
And that if you just act like a normal person you get into hanky panky with everyone.. wtf? lol..
Let's not forget the akward faces comboed with this.. lol

Other than that there is not much to take them on. The characters and story is quite good.

Early Access Review
So far so very good.
You wanna play hardest difficulty and quick que? from start? Sure. *Hell yeah!*
(Looking at some other games.. you dumb bastards.. let players choose..)
Actve basebulding and defence. I AM IN!

Active progress of your "class"
No Loot boxes so far I saw... etc. etc.

PURGE!

Over all Love it. And have been waiting for this kind of game for years.. PvE.. about time.
You can still feel the Early Access.. but I do hope this game will fix that over time.

You can still play it and have fun. And the gaming does not feel like a grind and no pay wall. (Ahhh that feel)
