Humble 最近的评测

A very fun fantasy games but downside is I wish we able to control map and number of faction on the map so not all of us can play very large map with long waiting turn. (my gaming computer $3,000 designed for gaming) I wish a quicker turn. (Nov 2018)

Edit: review is very old and used to be recommend game.

Feb, 2020, it's been lot of changed, sometime for better, sometime for worse,
As for better, now there isn't long waiting turn, they make everything so go fast and smooth, lot better to run than before.

Map is changed and lot better, add in old world in the mortal empire.

Now biggest reason I don't play mortal empire is because unbalance, order factions is overpower due they can had 5 to 15 doomstack along with allied faction on normal level, before then, normal level, it's was up to 3 doomstack, and that is few and rare, most of time it's 1 or 2 doomstack, but now you see 4 or 5 doomstack, every few turn, other 4 or 5 doomstack from allied like empire, dwarf, bretonnia. I wasn't play hard level, I was play normal level, I had no issues played lot of time as vampire, ect in past, 500 hours, but dlc the hunter and the beast changed balance to unbalance, this is no longer fun to play in mortal empire (for some reason it's ok to play vortex because I hadn't see 4 or 5 doomstack rarely or anything like that on normal level, but that is too common in mortal empire, it's not a challenge and very a tense then annoyed. So thumb down and discouraged to play game because it's unbalance in mortal empire, normal level is no longer normal level but seem like very hard level or more.

I changed it because patch changed it.

Felt that this game is not a complete and still need to work on it before called a "great game" like baldur's gate. So many to fix, balance like encouter enemies too high for party level, little xp if share party, taken forever to level up to catch up enemies' level. bug here and there, mostly spell and ablity bug, like if you choice gold dragon, you end up using black dragon form, (there is no wing or anything on normal human form add, just a bouns), you can create companion at unreasonable pirce like if 20 level, it's cost 200,000 gold, now there is hotfix, may not able to hire companion at all (I hadn't test that hotfix yet) so far, this review is based on 9-27-2018
Now I don't regret paid $85 Imperial Edition but I do expect they supported and working on this game to be complete, I hope, unlike many other game, so if you want to buy game, enter at your own risk. this game can be great if complete and you understand core rule of game based DD/pathfinder similer gameplay rule, if you do not understand, then you should play story mode and easy mode, to understand how game work, even cheat if you feel comfort playing while learning the gameplay. Set auto and quick save game many, in setting, not low number saved game, but rather high saved game so you don't waste time start over due bug or other reason if you still willing to buy game anyway.

Edit: 9/30/2018 Upgraded, they did fixed hire companion, but still need lot of work, most problem is after "Act 1" Kingdom management, something cause kingdom destoryed and game over.

Not a lot of the vampire game that player to be vamprie, this game is a petty good in a own rights even it's might not a popular like the VTM Bloodlines, but it's newest, latest vampire pc game (2018). I had been enjoyed so far because it's been difference setting of time, place, cultures/style of vampire and gameplay style from other vampire games,

Story are interesting, it's very long journeys, I'm not done even at end of quest, but there been said, story still not done in game.

Gameplay seem little be harder in first, but once you know how work done, it's easier.

Big problem is spceeh level is painful slow and I need a high for certian quest.

There may be bug here and there, but it's should work abround, no huge major bug breaking for me so far (I did start new game when new patch come up even I'm not done with old save game because new patch with old save game don't work well in most game, not just this game, but other game as well)

I do enjoyed this game so far, even thought story at end of game is feel not done yet, I hope they making final story end dlc add to this game and hopefuly they still working on to get rid of bug here and there.

I said it's worth my money as it's passed 100 hours gameplay at cost of $60, so not bad at all.

Edit Upgrade: I discover there is a serious bug quest like house of god side quest, may cause other harm or broken other quest, more I play in game, more bug come up, even I did start new game each time game patched and got delete old save game to get clean state, still bug, not same way like skyrim and fallout 4, because if one knew what they doing in skyrim/fallout 4 you could get away bug, but not this game, even you done this quest, quest might cause more bug and broken other quest in times. :( At this point, game may worth it or not worth it, it's just gray area.

While it's might be nice game, but problem is that if you try play sea dog to get Steam Achievements, I lost count replay again and again lost, and game delete my saved game due bad die rolls, like 4 or 5 in roll I unable get attack, or there is high level enemie kill you in one hit and game over, You can play without sea dog but unable to get steam achievement, I would not recommend to casual player, maybe hardcore player, I just lost interesting after that.

I had not any problem with bug or lag or crush, it's very smooth game, no bug that I know of it, it's just gameplay die roll random I do had problem, like there 3 enemie with high level attack you 3 time in one turn, while you only had one use in one turns even you had 3 crew in small boat, There been say there can be two boat, but I never got that far due game over due capian die meaning game over, ect

You had to grid lot of low level whale near starting town in few year to make little profit to buy lot of costy ship before you go main quest when playing as sea dog mode.

Make sure you don't import saved game from old one, higher risk bug, like I'm had a trouble trying unlock heros from lifeline in breakdown, many bug, so best play YOSE in clean state without using import saved game.

I been tried most of day how to taken out second of final Bounties, I tried many way in normal way, skill changed, whole entire fleets, and this "Nick" seem don't die at all due bug crazy hull regen faster and more heal than final best weapon had to offer for rail gun from headquater reseached 3 level but that is little to none effect, at this point buying dlc only can't beat nick in normal mean, no matter what you do, even cheat, seem he can't die at all, so I don't recommend buy this dlc, main game to be sure, but not this dlc due cheating a.i. unless they plan to fix.

It's fun game for while, but can be very hard, and you had to think, but even so, it's can be different profit even one might think it's done right ways, I suspect maintenance fee is bit high while profit is lower gameplay balance, even max profit and full cargo back and forth, sort of, maintenance fee is still higher than profit in some case, not always, but it's still can be done making profit, if you do lot of math stuff and thinking stuff, knew and understand how game mechanics work, if you don't, then it's likely you would failed often.

It's free add on state, 3 is better than 2 we had one.

More choice!
