      About 85% of the time when I go to make a ruling, it glitches and I have to restart. Ulfric has been king for a few years, and I used every elixir of growth so far on his kids and married them to commoners. I've got a lot of variety of personalities now to choose from when he dies

    It's not for everyone but I love the game and enjoy it. Idk if anyone remember the mobile game battleheart but that's what the missions remind me off and it's really cool they implemented it here.

      I guess you didn't payed enough attention to King's enemies. You need to be diplomatic and cautios. It's a pretty cool system. I don't have enemies and everyone loves me. Just to clarify, no microtransactions in my gameplay and i don't even use growth potions unless game asks to do that for a quest. It's a suprisingly good game. Better than Fallout Shelter.

    The game is really cool because it's similar to Fallout Shelter but with a medieval theme, that's why I gave it 4 stars. However, I tried to play on Bluestacks and it didn't work, my PC: Intel Core i3-7100 CPU @ 3.90GHz, 8GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT 1 GB; I installed it on my Moto G10, it worked, but playing on the cell phone is horrible (moving the screen and accidentally picking up characters, annoying, microscopic characters). This game would be 10x better with the 2D style of Fallout Shelter and being on the Steam Platform for PC.

    Hey by chance do you think the time-gated mechanics might be a little too slow-paced for some players? You didn’t mention anything about that in this video

    • @GameVaultHQ-5
      @GameVaultHQ-5  8 дней назад +1

      Great point! I did touch on the time-gated mechanics briefly, but you’re right-it could definitely feel too slow-paced for some players. Having to wait for certain actions to complete can be frustrating, especially if you’re used to faster progression in other games.

    Hi there, u were kinda positive in ur review.
    It feels as if devs haven't played games like the one they are making while also trying to make money as if they had released fallout shelter.
    Although is not a pay to win, the shop is joke. Prices are high for not worth bundles, the battle pass is not retroactive.
    Even for sim/management is very shallow. Solid or groundbreaking def not, it even doesn have some features of shelter.
    Now the lore is a topic of its own.

    • @Angel22Hokage
      @Angel22Hokage 9 дней назад +3

      @@Angel22Hokage yeah like the talos statue it adds +10 gold costs 2500 gems, gems cost 26 can dollars for 3000 gems.
      While Baldust Gate 3 was around 70-100 can dollars at launch, what f** bad joke is this.

    Openmw on android will always be the best elder scrolls on mobile...
    But I honestly think this game is ok too. Especially if you get close to your subjects. It's kinda like tomodachi life, but elder scrolls

    As a beta i already played or survived for 64 years in game and the game like this video mentioned is like a babysitting instead of engaging. When you have good production, stable money, stable resources the game felt dull as all you can do either go to war or just sit and wait around for ruling. It be nice if the game have raids like fallout shelter or seasons effect like on cold days there will be special ruling on the throne to help people that in needs of supplies for winter something like that. The decoration and your growth for the castle is limited unlike shelter you build a sprawling underground bunker with dozens of rooms while castle you just build some room for your requirement like furnaces, mills, smith and etc. If you wanna build more thats fine but you ended up with empty rooms

      Thanks for checking out the review! I totally understand wanting more from The Elder Scrolls: Castles. It has potential but definitely falls short in a few areas.

  • @switchunboxing
    @switchunboxing 9 дней назад +1

    Dammit I didn’t even think of the graphics being bad until you said something and now it can’t be unseen hahaha. Those characters man.. Are those Miis?

    • @GameVaultHQ-5
      @GameVaultHQ-5  8 дней назад

      Haha, I feel you on that! Once you notice the graphics, it’s hard to ignore. Those characters really do look like Miis or something straight out of Roblox-definitely not what you’d expect from an Elder Scrolls game. Hopefully, they’ll refine that over time. But yeah, those visuals are something else! 😆

    What happens if you miss a day

    • @GameVaultHQ-5
      @GameVaultHQ-5  7 дней назад +2

      If you miss a day in The Elder Scrolls: Castles, it’s not the end of the world, but your kingdom won’t progress as fast. Since each real-life day counts as one year in the game, you might miss out on collecting resources or completing tasks that could help grow your dynasty. You’ll have to play catch-up when you return, but thankfully, there aren’t any major penalties for missing a day-it just slows down your progress. Definitely worth checking in daily if you want to keep things moving!
