Probably they will continue the support and development of the game as Paradox Interactive, let be honest, not at very good situation, and AOE3 now is one of the most succesfull titles of the studio by reviews if not the best (guess right after CKIII). I can't tell what is profit from it though, but anyways

      If you want this to be a good yet forgetable game, then yes. It's solid and this will do.

    When empire and ash came out, I had planned the insectoid form.
    Afterwards, I had put it for Primal Fury, and a fish/octopus people for this one, even if it was rather obvious that it was deer and/or wolves for primal fury, I am surprised to see insects for this one and not fish and octopus.
    In any case, I hope it's not the end, because it lacks form, competence, tribes, magic, lords, etc... like a titan lord, a behemoth lord (big beast in Kaiju mode), etc.
    Ps: and more color for faction, etc...

      @dezdannaselaphiel8634 5 месяцев назад +1

      What do you mean it "lacks" a "titan lord" and "behemoth lord"? The dragon already qualifies for "big beast".
      Also the shadow realm from 2 had shadow demons, which are insect species, in it, that's why insects came in this one.

      @@dezdannaselaphiel8634 i use my example from the video in in primal fury:
      « To give an example of Lord:
      Titans specialize in construction, which can be mechanical or elemental depending on the element chosen.
      Behemoths specialize in military enlistment, and food, and the behemoth would have unique specialties.
      a natural behemoth will be a giant larva
      a chaos behemoth will be a kind of gorilla
      a materium behemoth will be a kind of buffalo/elephant
      an astral behemoth will be a kind of serpent
      a shadow behemoth will be a kind of bat
      a behemoth of order will be a birds
      which will evolve and change shape depending on the levels and element chosen, for example:
      the larva at level 5 will become an iron larva (materium), a fire larva (chaos), etc... then a level 10 cocoon with an aura in addition to darkness (shadow), luminous (order), and level 15, a butterfly if it's nature, a dragonfly if it's astral, etc... while retaining the effects of the previous levels, so a skeletal butterfly with metal skin if nature, materium, shadow and nature, or a hairy butterfly of ice if nature, nature, astral and nature »

My favourite is still the original AOW and this is a very close second beating out AOW SM. I've been a part of the discord server and had meaningful chat and interactions with the devs before leaving the server and I'm still very pleased with the way the game is being developed. Especially when underground and water was being talked about for being redesigned and revamped. I've loved all the changes made from release - now. Thank you so much

    It would be best if they could also walk on land (they would have legs on land and a mermaid tail in water) and it wouldn't matter if they were weaker on land if they were stronger in the sea and could be focused on luring enemy units into traps = forced movement to the luring unit and
    at the same time focused on charming enemy units. I would really like it as some form of new culture. And of course Mermaid as a neutral unit too🙂

    This is the least of the dlc in my opinion. More color purple and strange beings is not how i like to play my AoW4. Aslo i find it way too diverse in content. For the new content there are so many paths to choose and to micromanage and read. I hope in the future they will give some love to tried and true pillars of 4x present in the game. i like the Medieval side of things instead of the bizarre. I'm over 500 hours in the game and i got the expansion pass so i'll give it a look. Maybe i'm completely wrong. 'm very glad the the low tier units get some love and can 'get along'with the game longer. Something i craved for and pushed a few times on the forums.

      Age of Wonders has always been all about the magic, in one way or another, in the first one you could win simply by drowning the entire map with the water sphere for example, the "medieval" part has never been the greatest focus, it's not even an inherent "pillar" of 4x.

      @@dezdannaselaphiel8634 so isn't eldritch. Also not part of 4x. Me stating what I would like to see has nothing to do with the genre. Even Magic is not always part of 4xgames. I do see where your confusion comes from so i changed one sentence in my earlier message.

    So, when do we get an insectoid transformation so we can get appropriately designed wings for our bugs?
