Sounds vexing

[General]

Reading the reviews of people who pre-ordered expensive as fuck Civilization VI

I totally forgot we actually had a VI and this is VII

Reviews look very positive? Oo

[General]

I meant the VII not VI

Even though I have VI, i play V, i forgot VI even exists

[TheDR]

Civ is never very good until all the expansions are released (and patched).

[General]

They are very greedy with Civ and Warhammer Total War games...

[TheDR]

Where are the decent free RTS games?!

[General]

Combined Arms is alright. But kinda 25 years late

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

I'll combine your arms in a minute.

[TheDR]

Actually, BAR is really good, forgot about that

Tried it, it lacks character, soulless.

Maybe that is a problem with the Supreme Commander type games? Lack of voice acting perhaps?

[General]

Yep, too spoiled by great voice acting in C&C games.

That, and lack of good music, atmosphere, story, etc. I think all of them lack it.

Fun to play though .

Sound design is an important part of a game, who knew!

[Chyros]

To be honest, I'm not sure you can get a lot of personality out of those huge-scale RTS games like you can micro-scale ones like C&C. That's okay though, just a different kind of game.

Makes it easier to talk over comms if you're playing coop, at least.

[Chyros]

Normally I'm not really an SYYK Black fan but this one is pretty good =o .

[General]

Quick review sounded nice, another one for my playlist, oh i am pleased

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

One of my biggest issues with all the different modern RTS games is the lack of art style... They simply exist. There are some that look better than others, but the ones that look better seem to focus on "realistic" graphics, rather than readability of the units and buildings.

This looks pretty neat though.

[TheDR]

Is THIS the ?

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

This is the golden age of RTS graphics.
