Ejecutor Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) Btw, I have an ongoing project of building my own dawnbringed funded village. In order to have inspiration I've screenshoted all the buildings/ items I thought could be interesting to take inspiration from: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198048667112/screenshots/?appid=0&sort=newestfirst&browsefilter=myfiles&view=imagewall&privacy=8 Edited November 15, 2023 by Ejecutor 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommissarRotke Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Played a bunch of campaign and conquest last night. I'm still not really feeling the "slowness" of campaign though conquest was noticeably speedier for roaming units between objectives. however, I still got my butt kicked in campaign because the AI can micro a lot better. dropping conquest to easy was a bit more manageable (so far). TBH i'm not sure how i'll fare with increased speed on normal/medium! there will probably be some patches to help unit responsiveness, some of the movement can get stuttery. people complaining about melee units standing around getting shot either forgot or don't know RTS games do that. however, a physical minimap notification for fights happening would help IMO. there's AUDIO cues but when multiple things happen at once they can get lost like in real battles.

I play at max difficulty and prob would reduce it a bit. At campaign 6 I feel I am facing swarms of Tyranids instead of Krules. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCGamer's reviewer straight up hates AOS as a setting, so expect weird bias against the game extremely effing disappointing how much people still aren't over End Times. Yeah I'm never reading another PCGamer review if this is their seal of quality. His review was a joke flecked with massive prejudice against the setting. I'll bet my salary that the dude knows zero-to-nothing about AoS. Why the hell would you give the AoS game to someone who vehemently hates AoS? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm following a few of them and, even if they don't know anything about AoS, they seems to like the game. I engaged ElKai community (chat/discord) yesterday, and to my surprise, they are cool dudes. Of course we trashtalked a bit, but it was more about fun than bad blood. Btw, my wife seems to enjoy the game (note: she is not a gamer). I'm in the middle of a few projects and I think that I will not touch it until a few weeks... /sadface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xil Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Ok, my quick review: World feels great for someone who knows AoS. Trees with mouthes that want to eat you in Ghur and all those details are nice. Armys feel like i expected them to The gameplay is still a little wonky and gets a bit stale after a few games. Also i miss the unit bar that shows all units even when not selected. Abilities are cool but are confusing to use...i retreated my units a few times by accident because the retreat button changes position depending on the amount of unit abilities. Even tho i played a LOT of DoW2, and considering those games are similiar, i don't get the same rewarding feeling in RoR. The map is not as engaging as there is no cover mechanic. Only those 'mud' patches that slow units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStreicher Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I'd really love to buy this game but at the moment I am spending too much money already. So I will buy it next month. It's kind of sad that success is measured in initial sales though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I selected the unit by number and clicked where I expected the ability to be...aaaand retreated by accident.

And the fact that you cannot cancel it is annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've taken to the hotkeys pretty well, as you're able to actually turn on a text notification in the settings. It should put the hotkey letter on every button that uses one!

Baron Klatz Posted November 18, 2023 Author Share Posted November 18, 2023 (edited) So far so good, went from 8/10 to 9/10 on Steam this morning, went up to 86% and then dropped a little and is holding at 82% Very Positive with a lot of thumbs ups. If that stays we’re golden. Love the prizes they keep putting out. Also Arby’s which is hilariously awesome. Also also, nice that YouTubers playing it seem pretty positive like Angry Joe gave it a nice recommendation.

Ejecutor Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 (edited) I've finished the campaign. I gotta say it is quite plain history whise. I could even agree with some of the negative side reviews (even if they didn't play that far). The last battle is intense, even in lower difficulties, but the end of the plot is interesting. Leaves you a good taste once you finish the game. They did a nice work there. Edited November 23, 2023 by Ejecutor 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The voice actors you can tell are professionals and are really good, and just the way the Orruks for example move and their facial expressions is wonderful. I'm loving seeing the world of AoS in motion. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gitzdee Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Ive seen a lot of mixed reviews. Most of them on the positive side. Good game but not great. I will wait for the price to drop as im not in a hurry to play this game. Anyone knows when the console version releases? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
