Is Stronghold a good series.
Many of the games are on sale on Steam and they look pretty interesting. Ive never played any of the its series, and I know theres about 8 games in the series.
Which is best to start off with?
Stronghold HD?
Crusaders HD?
I see a ton of negative reviews on SC2 and S3 Gold, any advice?
Stronghold is great
Stronghold: Crusader is GOAT
Stronghold: Crusader Extreme is WHY Tier
All 3D Strongholds are extremely poor, but Crusader 2 just barely passes for okay.
Quite possibly my all-time favorite castle siege/sandbox sim. I'd recommend starting at SH or SH:C, and if possible, sticking with those games. SH and SH:C have some slight but important differences, like the environments and units available. The first Stronghold and then going into Crusader is pretty much how I'd go about it, as they're both pretty good in their own way.

Just to be clear, the only difference between Stronghold/Crusaders and their HD counterparts is just the graphics?

Graphics, and I would assume their compatibility. The games originally came out for Windows XP, and you can get away with running it on Vista/7+, but the HD allows for widescreen view and generally a much better view of the map.

I can't vouch that it's for everybody, but seeing how it's only $5 right now, and you were interested enough to actually look into it, this shit is probably up your alley and worth the dosh.

People are leaving the castle!
crusader has fully functional enemy AIand skirmish mode.
stronghold has the best campaign
How do we go from this...
>>318074871
to THIS?
As someone said, SH and SHC are amazing castle building sims, and have really nice single player campaigns.
Never seen RTS based game with such good infrastructure etc features.
No love for Stronghold Legends? The only flaw it had was lack of content.
>tfw your people loath you
Stick with Stronghold and Stronghold: Crusader
I prefer the setting of the first but Crusader has quite a bit more stuff.
And wasn't there a 3D remake of Crusader? Anyone play it?
