So when can we order our heckin' Franko Pops?

 

[flyingjohn]

Now you too can play the same game on the same map but this time with 5 extra turns.

 

[Space Satan]

Goes well so far

 

[Fedora Master]

There's gonna be porn of that avatar. I guarantee it.

Lol, that's almost "Pillars of Eternity 2 narrator" tier voice acting. This thing also seems to have really bland and uninspired art, which is an unpleasant surprise after the Endless games.

The only thing keeping me vaguely interested is that I can choose who I want for the AI leaders and I'm bemused by making a Kang Vlad the Impaler who invented Kwanza and fried chicken.

Sooo misandrist... I mean, progressive...

SJWs cannot into talent or anything of value. The corruption always ends in the same way.

At least she has a british accent and not a stupid annoying californian one

After seeing that "Lucy" trailer, I don't really know anymore. It's so close to self-parody, I can't say if they're being serious.

HOWEVER, there's one thing you esteemed homosexuals are not seeing. If it is possible for a blue-haired negress to sobdue the roman empire and force them to adopt a vegetarian diet,
what follows it should be theoretically within the realm of gameplay for the opposite to happen. You look at that screen with tanned braidy-haired leaders with traits like "compassionate" "cautious", etc.
What's your knee-jerk reaction as a fucking strategy game player, well familiar with the smell of napalm and gunpowder?

Spoiler

Mhmmmm VICTIMS!

Who knows maybe one could even subdue a tribe of [[redacted]] and force them to eat pork?

That said, having seen some some gameplay vids (haven't had the time to see them all the way through), I'm seeing some retarded shit, like half a tribe being wiped out hunting a fucking deer?
That's some limp-wristed civisoyzation if you ask me.

It seems to check out.
Also, in before you're forced to play as trannies and not normal human people, as well as preventing you from playing as blonde people, just like HBS did.

Fair point about no blonde people (where's muh representation ) I think the closest one I've seen was a Vlad, but that wasn't nearly close to blonde.

Still, I was under the impression that you can customize these mugs to some degree, if not add your a whole custom mesh for it.
I've seen some dev streaming had characters that resembled them (and seeing that actually answers quite a few questions).

So what do have here? Where to buy drugs in your local area. Wanna try your luck with the ese, or the constipated indian? I think you're in for a nasty surprise with Isabella.

 

[Joggerino]

Is this hell?

 

[cvv]

Here you have a strategy game trying to model the development of a civilization - a process notoriously harsh, merciless, oftentimes brutal, with entire nations or even ethnicities being regularly wiped out by the stronger alpha dog.

And what's the aesthetic gravy coming with the numbers meat in this game? Everything is cheery and bouncy as a TikTok influencer, the music is straight out of Sims: The Lollipop Land and the leaders radiate the authority and gravitas of Jar Jar Binks. Yes, if I was a member of an ancient culture I would totally follow that bubbly ingenue from that Frankie Ward trailer into the mouth of hell. Kings and emperors would fall before her very glare.

I guess if you're one of those people who don't care about anything else but the bare mechanics in their strategy games go wild and enjoy this wet puerile goop. But don't forget to talk to your doctor about a possible testosterone replacement therapy afterwards.

It still looks better than Endless Legend, at least here the envinronments are cool and clear, not a blob mess of random cubes

 

[Heroic Liberator]

Hopefully they'll allow making and saving avatars for the AI to use akin to main heroes in AoW3.

It should be, 7 years later.

I mean art, not technical

Call me when they remove CRT.

Call me when they remove CRT.

Indeed :D

For those unaware, list of all selectable cultures (including those becoming available in the modern and contemporary eras) are already on the game's wiki.

You have both the Soviet Union and the (Dengist) PRC as selectable cultures in the contemporary era.

 

[Mazisky]

It feel weird to see they've put in ZULUs as an industrial era culture with its unique unit "village man with spear" along other cultures of the same era with gunpowder.

Wasn't better to put them in earlier eras?

 

[oscar]

Persians as an Industrial culture is a bit odd too. And no Arabs anywhere?
