I've been following the process of development for years, I played the Demo and I just love it. Sure, it's Early Access and thus has some Bugs and graphical glitches, at least I have them, but I don't think I have misplaced my trust when I say that for Full Release it will be near perfect.

Like with all Paradox games, Millenia shows great potential. At least gameplaywise, cause the graphics are from the last millenium. But it has a certain addictiveness, I can't really stop playing it. So I'll definitely keep my eyes on the future development.

It's everything I could expect from a Definitive Edition, the future updates and DLC seem promising and a Definitive Edition for Crusader seems almost certain now.

With prices like these for content like this, they'll run out of money. Either lower the prices or offer more content to both DLC and regular updates, but this is a disgrace to CA, the Total War series and Warhammer.

Unique and intriguing artstyle.
Well-written and fascinating story.
Worth a couple replays.
Every chapter would be worth the price of this game.

Played it, like it. I've had no bugs so far, the setting is really nice and the thin japanese islands made me think and plan the next 10 trainstations in advance.

I've played other historically influenced city builders like Banished or Life Is Feudal, but Ostriv is by far the most addictive to me. I very much like its organic build up with the self-generating roads and the free placement, which I kinda missed in the afore mentioned games. I can't wait for future updates or its full release.

Bought it, finished it, had tears in my eyes. Of joy, for most parts. This game has a wonderful scenery, an amazing story, interesting characters and one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard in a game.

It's still a fantastic game and I had shivers all over when I first started the Definitive Edition. It runs perfectly smooth (on medium settings) and no crashes so far.

An sich ein wundervolles Spiel,Nostalgie pur. Aber leider immer noch schwer spielbar aufgrund mehrerer Bugs und anderer Fehler. Ich zum beispiel kann kein zufälliges Spiel starten,schon gar nicht mit mehr als einem Gegner oder gar mit anderen Farben als Blau und Rot. Im Ladebildschirm friert das Spiel kurz ein,danach sind die Beschriftungen der Ladeanzeige nur noch gelbe Blöcke und sobald es fertig geladen hat,kommt ein Fehler in einer .dll Datei. Anfangs konnte ich dies durch die Deaktivierung von Schatten noch umgehen,aber das funktioniert jetzt leider auch nicht mehr.
