Why aren't you playing Endless Legend?
>>319879075
Because Beyond Earth is better
Because i cant work around the FUCKING COMBAT
I am though. I'm just shit at it.
Because the AI is so god awful terrible that each turn it sends some shitty units into my meat grinder and every turn becomes a slog.
I'm too stupid to play 4x games.
Because i play good strategy games (gsg)
It's sitting in my inventory along with 30 other games
I'm going to add them all to my library on christmas day to convince people I'm really popular and people gift me a lot of games
>>319879716
Who isn't.
>>319879075
because ive played the shit out of it already
I already played it for like 200 hours and I don't want to buy the DLC
also its 2ez
>>319879075
I was. But it overheats my laptop.
>>319880695
>>319879835
Did you try after the latest patch?
Been burned by Unity too many times,literally.
>>319881231
>>319879141
I'm playing the dlc to beyond earth right now, and while i'm enjoying it fuck some of their gameplay decisions, they had neat ideas with the diplomacy but as it is now its completly ruined.
I am really enjoying the unit variety though, and am glad to see spies low tier missions are just as op as vanilla.
Because I played like 3 matches and it's pretty boring.
>>319879075
Biggest problem I have with this game is lack of hotseat.
One of favorite things to do with my brothers is to just leave a computer up with civ 5 and just slowly take turns playing the game when their visiting.
>/v/ talking about EL
I never thought I'd live to see the day. It's always Civ5kek.

My best friend is too poor for a PC so I usually just bring my laptop and we play the shit out of HoMM3. So I can relate. It's sad that there are so many games lately with huge hotseat potential such as the Total War games that just don't implement it because it doesn't make them money. Do you have any recomendations?
>>319881879
Honestly I don't have many that you probably don't know about sadly.
Civ 5 and beyond earth both work for it.
I remember the Age of mythology game for the ds had it as well, which was great considering its a ds game that you can easily pass around.
anyone here ever play dungeon of the endless? it's literally the prequel to endless legend and i thought it was fun
the endless universe really has some amazing lore especially when you find out that dust is justhighly advanced nanobots
Toaster
>>319882282
Are you ever gonna drink that coffee, Spacey?
>>319879075
>hexagonal strategy game
Garbage.
>>319882405
The move to hexagons is probably one of the only good things to come from newer tbs as of late.
>>319882404
Is the AI any good now? Don't feel like playing against a cripple and turning into a glorified 'end turn' game.
>>319882282
>the endless universe really has some amazing lore
It's deep. And just getting deeper.
>>319882572
D E E P E S T
>>319882532
Yes. It builds roads, doesn't fall for stupid trade deals, makes armies and alliances andbackstabs you when you're weak. It even has personality.
LORE
>>319882713
Did you get the quest pack? It goes deeper.
>>319882710
The AI can't handle how I play, minus sometimes the necrophage.
I use a modified draken that focus on economy like the roving clans, but you can't start war for shit with me, and everyone is forced to be my best buds.
Its retarded and fucks up anyone hoping to win through military means as i straight up becomes impossible as shit and I love it.
I
>>319883115
i did not, i only put one game into endless legend(and beat it on literally the last turn possible) since 5x games just take way too much time
i wish they would add more content to dungeon of the endless
>>319883227
>i wish they would add more content to dungeon of the endless
They keep on adding content.
>>319883167
I've been trying to get better as Draken, you have any tips?
>>319883263
Wait with victory condition is it the only one I turn on or the one I go for? Cause I swear even If I focus on something score wins have a habit of sneaking up on me before I can win the way I intended.
>>319879075
It's too expensive
>>319883370
i wish i knew about this sooner, oh well at least i have something to do now
>>319883263
Rolling
>>319883263
rollan
Never hooked me like ES did.
Shame really,game looks fun
>>319879075
Fuck you
I bought it because people recommended it during the sale
It looks fucking horrible. It looked okay in a video but the actual game somehow ended up looking fucking ancient as shit. Would rather Civ V
>>319883416
Money money money. The start is always slow until your economy picks up, then the rest of your shit follows through. Since you can diplomacy everyone else out the ass as long as your not to pressured to much you don't have to spend to much if any resources on military unless you're in trouble
Lait game is where depending on how you set up if you need to focus on economy or a diplomacy win, but both are more or less the same, you simply focus on either getting influence points as fast as you can or gold. Make sure to higher heros that have bonus towards these and stuff them in your cities.
You might also consider getting the traits that gives extra points for having less movement speed. You ain't armies for shit anyways.
>>319884089
>It looks fucking horrible
>>319883458
Always disable score wins, it's utter bullshit with the AI bonuses.
>>319884243
It really does, even if only compared to Civ
Thinking of getting this for a friend.
The only games he plays as far as I know is Fire Emblem, Civ, Dawn of war and Monster Hunter. Do you think he will like it?
>>319884081
ES2 in 2016.
>game is endless
>wanting to waste the rest of my life on one game
>>319879075
The combat is a complete mess.
>>319879141
>Beyond Earth is better
Lmao
>>319884297
>>319884321
Yeah I think he'd like it. It shares a lot of similarities to Civ.
>>319884362
>not buying one single game to keep you happy till the end of eternity
>>319884384
Still better than the combat in Civ 5 and BE. 1UPT is abusable as fuck vs AI. Sometimes the only way to win playing on Deity is to abuse their shit AI in combat
>>319879716
>>319880594
Oh thank god I'm not alone. I just can't stop sucking at it.
Still fun though.
>>319884321
>Civ
He can always try out the EL factions in Civ.
>>319884545
But a virtual reality version of AA isn't out yet...
>>319882282
I play it. Super comfy, gonna get real cozy with it this winter.
>>319884685
>AA
Pleb.
How do I become good with the Forgotten?
>>319884868
Only buy your racial techs, explore like mad and steal the tech of everyone else. Don't start a war you can't finish.
If I buy this, what DLC do I need?
>>319886424
Guardians and Shadows are full expansions. Buy them.
Lost Tales is 23 extra quests. Worth it on sale.
Lost Songs of Auriga is extra music and recolors of ingame items. Not worth it but feel free to buy it if you just want to throw money at the devs.
But seriously, wait for a sale and just buy the complete pack for $20.
