A promise of a Real Time Strategy game, which could have challenged some big Turn Based and Real Time Strategy games out there. After years of waiting for the early access to end, this is what we got:

Let me start with the good stuff. The voice acting of the game’s narrator is good.

Everything else is overall McDonald’s junk food quality.
Constant annoying pauses - cinematic pauses and dialogue pauses during the start of the gameplay. Unit animations look clunky, and the art style of the armour and weapons resembles the likes of low fantasy setting, rather than historically accurate one. Yet, the developers insist on the historical accuracy in presentation of their game. User interface is way too much minimalistic, and therefore lacking in functionality and content. Minimap’s field of view display has an ugly design, where the area of vision cone looks like a weird liquid drop with two sharp ends on each side, rather than industry’s standard, which displays it in a trapezium shape. The marked areas of the point of interest on the minimap were hand-drawn in Microsoft’s Paint program. There is no collision detection between civilians and buildings, who walk around the cities, which breaks the immersion. Surely, the buildings, which look like soviet blocks of the medieval era, piled like rock formations in the cities, don’t help either. Add to that the units, which climb on the siege towers, and float in the air once they reach the top of the siege tower. Yeah, it looks pretty bad, and leaves a bad impression of the lazy developers. The optimisation is poor, which results in abysmal graphics quality and low frame rates, despite running it on specifications above the minimal requirement. Alt-tabbing the game lowers the texture quality in-game.

So, years of waiting for the early access to end, and we got this. It was not worth the wait for the overall experience a player gets. And no, nobody cares how many people developers had in their team. They still charge significant amount of money for this game after all these years, and they could have afforded to hire more. Not that they could have, but should have done it.
As a cherry on the top, they moved to other game projects, while this one was left unpolished.
Do not buy it. Do not tolerate this kind of behaviour, and do not show support for lazy people.
