As for now only got 7 hours played, finished jungle campaign which was fantastic, playing many skirmishes and freebuild. Checked out some mapmaking vids on youtube Game is quite intuitive, maps can be huge, gameplay is amazing, combat looks nice, im positively surprised a lot After finishing campaign missions cutscenes play 2 times with glitched audio sometimes, to be fixed Archers sometimes dont targed invasions forces with clean LOS, need hand targeting or re-moving Other than that, first game of the series since SH1 and SHC1 I reeeeally enjoyed. Amazing job Talewords

It's definitely glad to see a new saga of STRONGHOLD telling eastern Asian legends. However, the differences among factions are so hard to tell. I used to expect that it was going to be several different factions at least including China, Japan, Korea, Mongol, Vietnam. But finally it is a single confusing furnace of cultures. Hope you make WARLORD II one day to make a real eastern Asian style game.

Honestly, better than expected. I know a lot of people hated on it and of course its not as good as some of the old ones but that doesn't mean this is bad. The Warlords system is really flawed but at the same time in some missions it allows you to entirely focus on Economy and let them do the Warfare which is a 10/10 addition. Always hated the Military missions, its shit here too just as in every game. Imagine making an RTS with a touch of city builder and then have missions where you can't build anything. Also saw some people hate on the Building/Military limit (400 each) which in the Campaign didn't effect me whatsoever but even if it did there are instructions in the official manual to increase that. Overall I'd say it was 100% worth it. I paid 3,49€ and played for 46hours and might do some Skirmishes aswell to see how it is outside the campaign

I don't know what all the negativity is about. It's just good old RTS fun. I've had a great blast playing the start of the campaign. I just don't get it, but got it anyway :) For me, it's Fun with a capital F :)
