I was a bit worried reading other comments that there is a game breaking bug somewhere in the campaign but I did not experienced it whatsoever. The game ran smooth under windows 10 and I may have the nostalgic goggles on but I still think that this game is really underrated. I can only recommend it if you are looking for a good RPG + RTS mix up with a good story line and fun gameplay.

You still can't walk faster in this one either and the magic is a bit limited compared to the first one but everything else is improved: graphics, story, unit/race variety, map exploration, streamlined progression system, you get to play with and as a dragon later on in the story, and just overall content. Oh and Ya Boi Flink McWinter gets time to shine, the Prof.Twiddle questline is fun, and there's the equivalent of you leading an army to victory while resolving the regrets of a ghost so you can get Exodia after the protagonists beats you in the main story Worth a buy and a worthy sequel from the first game

Still quite interesting game. Sadly no achievements with latest update. Game needs config adjustment so it would accept new graphic/cpu - but then it is possible to run in 4k without bigger issues. And as with old games on new systems: save, save, save to avoid loss of progress because of crash..

im a bit split on this game and i would recommend it but only with some warning. if you can manage to get the Gold Edition running, rather than this one, Id recommend you do that. This version is so buggy, it reminded me of Baldursgate-3. Camera not being on characters when they talk, or characters being hidden behind walls or trees. I think there only been three conversations where it didn't happen. And that's probably by chance. Game also crashed Four Times in my playtime. You have to make a lot of safe-files, manually. However. I do adore this game. It is a childhood favourite. And I got it at the same purchase as Lordi's Arockalypse album so I always think of the game when I hear it, and I think of the music when I play. The maps look great (if the shader works). The gear looks great. The spells look decent. And while this might be easily better than Spellforce-3, I still noticed some issues with the game overall. The A.I. of the units is troublesome, especially the pathfinding. If you give someone a healing Staff, they become mostly dorsal and dive right into danger, just to get hurt. Lya is rather useless like that. The difficulty of some of these Missions is ridiculous. It's not hard for tactical reasons. There's no rock-paper-scissor system here with the units. You cannot outsmart your enemy with your unit variety. There's only a couple of units that are useful at all, and then you just have to meatball the heck out if it and overrun the enemy. It also feels very easy to skill your heroes into the ground. You only get so many points to spend and it forces you to spend them on things you dont want. It feels like a backhanded insult. Most of your hero companions get the same skills and spells. I also don't know what to spend my gold on. The inventory has no bag limit so you can just never sell anything. if you do, you get have 2ook gold and nothing to buy. All the vendors have items that are far underleveled in the end. There's no World-Tier items that would make your heroes into legend. And that's a bit of a shame. The hero never feels strong. And the spells don't look spectacular. I do like the story overall. But the writing and acting is wooden. Also it's difficult to finish, because the Boss is much harder than anything you ever faced anywhere else in the game. And it's likely you get stuck in the bossroom after it's done. So finish your side quests before you finish the game. So overall I do think we could use more RPGs that are mixed with RTS, like Spellforce or Warcraft. But This game is also showing its age. That said, I will always remember it fondly, that and the song of the main menu.

Spellforce 2 and Dragon Storm are really fun, with memorable characters, really great music and ... also a disappointing ending boss for Spellforce and not being able to continue to play after finishing the Dragon Storm campaign. Still, if you love fantasy RTS games (or rather hybrids of RTS and RPG) then I highly recommend this game to you.
