Please fix your game.

Already tried the given fixes, nothing works. OS is windows 11.

Not there yet. this review will eventually change.

Things i want to see, eventually.

More traits and extensive traits to customize and define ones fantasy race further.
Negative traits, that add more flavour and defining ones fantasy race even further, also allowing to add more positive traits at the expense of having negative traits. loved this in planetfall.
More mixed cultures to allow more build variety in terms of affinities. i want to see other mixed cultures.
I also want to see more gunpowder units, not just be locked to reavers, i know! give us a tome that switches out bow weaponry for gunpowder weapons!
I'm happy about the primal culture as my favourite leader type was archdruid in aow 3 BUT, the bonuses are poorly thought out, the synergy feels so disjointed and honestly extra work to make it work, i'd love to see this carefully fleshed out properly and the synergy coming together naturally especially if you build for it!
Society traits! i dislike how much army is mixed into society traits, like please, separate army stuff from society traits and give us army traits! so we can get the society traits and the army traits we want. i'd like to be able to choose 2 society traits and 1 army trait, to define my fantasy race further.
I dislike it so much being unable make reavers that are scions of evil. just make army traits and make the army traits incompatible with said cultures.
I'd like to see more society traits too, to further define a build as well as add flavour.
Tomes! oh the tome selection is so lackluster, like the beginner tomes we can select isnt enough, i want to see alot more pure affinity tomes and mixed affinity tomes to truly be able to get the build we want with our fantasy race, but also define our fantasy race further right from the start!
Ruler origins, i want to see alot more ruler origins to get the leader and bonuses i want.
Appearance, appearance, appearance, oh how i want so much more customization options and picks here.
Like i want alot more weapons one can pick from, i know! let us customise their loadout!
I'd like to be able to make my leaders very big or very small, thicker bodies even fatter bodies too! another point my friend got very disappointed when they couldnt make a very small dragon, cause they wanted to make a faerie dragon.
Poses! aow 3 had so many poses one could pick from that really set the tone and personality of your leader. i hope we get to see alot of poses come back from both aow 3 and planetfall.
More heads for all races, to get the look you want. i'm especially disappointed when it comes to the lupines and goatkin, i'd love for there to be a teeth option so i can select if i want visible teeth or not! one of the lupine heads is literally a permanent angry expression, this is so bad and waste of head slot!
More eye colors and the selection to have glowing eyes!
More hairstyles and hair colors, even have two sets of fur colors, also separate option for patterns instead of them being in skin decorations. also to have facial and body decorations separated too.
More clothing! i want to see alot more clothing options and different clothing combinations, to further nail down the style of your leader!
Faction colors! oh, how i want to see soooooo many more colors already. the fact with each dlc we havent gotten extended color options is real disappointing. i have so many leaders that have the same color, it gets frustrating when trying to pick AI opponents.

Realm creation, i want to see so much more customisation and more slots so i can define even further the realm one plays in.
Atop of this as its probably never going to happen, i want to see dwellings make a comeback, i'd love to see giants, feys, merfolk and new ones never seen before.
I'd want size options for provinces, never liked how small the provinces are and how many you can obtain, i feel alot of strategic options is lost here when claiming provinces, also deciding what to build in said provinces, as you can just keep grabbing provinces and building stuff with not much thought into it at all.
I'd want to set the size for provinces as big as sectors in planetfall, even so the option of the chance of provinces having 3 things or 2 things, be it resource nodes, magical materials, ancient wonders or structures.
Another point of frustration are free cities claiming numerous amounts of provinces, looking like splotches of vomits on the maps. i'd prefer if free cities could only claim the provinces surrounding their cities but never further than this. making a clear stark difference from cities controlled by players/AI leaders. i've literally had moments were every free city thats near me, beeline provinces towards me and closing me off, one particular moment i had 3 free cities closing me off so badly it was unplayable and i had to quit that game. i dont know why the free cities are so inclined on claiming provinces towards players, they're literally making lines towards the players.

Its a fun game, had alot of fun in the unit creator!

Took me years to get good at the game.

It might not be as great as jurassic park: operation genesis was but it truly is a really nice jurassic park game for this day and age.

Absolutely the best strategy turn based game ive ever played with my friends, the turns are fast and rapid as you dont need to wait long compared to other strategy turn based games. the combat is great in the form of flanking, blocking, tanking and casting spells even strategically planning where to have your heaviest units doing the most damage. as you can even join in on battles your ally start or yourself if they are next to the attacked target, forming some form of cooperative experience. the city management is alot of fun especially once you decide what your city will become for city, if you want it to solely focus on making troops or turning it into a city of mana to gain lots of mana to throw alot of spells is up to you as well as dependant on the leader you have. when it comes to the leader the customization is enough even if its not a whole lot but its enough to be satisfying to some extent, once it comes down to class and choosing specialization the real fun begins if you want to be a badass warmonger or a peace loving druid even a villainous necromancer its up to you. i really recommend playing this with friends as it will nearly ensure endless of fun.
