Is the game meant for everybody? no not really, it's kind of weird and that's all I can say. Medieval games
have that kind of shtick where they do that specific thing you want but not add the other things you like
to it. Mordhaus fighting, Vermintides world, Mount & Blades massive battles and Darkest Dungeons aesthetic you get the idea. So what does this game bring? Well it has a cool dungeon atmosphere the physics are actually pretty good in my eyes even though the "drunken chivalry" joke is a thing and the graphics aren't the worst to look at. The real issue to me is that the games learning curve can be rough, when I played enemies were relentless the game had no real guidance aside from some tips. The controls at first are ♥♥♥♥♥♥' BIZARRE but you get adjusted over time (if you suck in combat try the practice arenas two levels). If your patient and open to weirder medieval games though this game is pretty alright. Was worried it was dead but with a new patch out of nowhere now is the best time to play. If I had a complaint it would be the soundtrack, out of most of my games Exanimas ost leaves a lot to be desired. I heard only two tracks really and it didn't feel right with it's cold and dark dungeon aesthetic. Something like Vermintide or Darkest Dungeon would really up the games mood. To me at least.

DUDE it's Counter-Strike; Source I don't think you really need to expect anything else from this game. Somehow more addicting and more fun than Go this version still has a massive player base.

Without a doubt, a damn good buy.

The first thing I want to say is that strategy + RTS games are not my cup of tea. Other than "Tooth & Tail" and "Stronghold" being my favorites, this genre has never been something I've played. As a "Chivalry" or "Mount & Blade" player I like medieval games that throw you into the field of battle cleaving poor peasants and farmers during a righteous crusade in the name of God. With that said -

Ancestors: Legacy is not just a good game but a good entry (in my opinion) into strategy and RTS for players like me.
So let's talk about it. What will you expect?

- It was made by the same mad lads who made Hatred
- pits you in Europe in around I'ed say the 11th to 12th century
- you can play several campaigns as different factions: Germans, Saxons, Slavs, Vikings + a recent DLC in the Middle East
- BOMB ASS SOUNDTRACK YOU CAN BUY
- badass artbook as well available for purchase

What I enjoyed
- the game again is a good entry into RTS for me, the tactic styled gameplay is easy to understand and you learn pretty quick.
- this game got style, from the amazing soundtrack to the amazing art in each cutscene as well as the menu.
- this game is pretty polished, as a big nerd who zooms into the battles to watch I loved the detail in both animation + unit design.
- I haven't played the multiplayer but making it possible is a good move in my opinion.
- the game has missions and storylines that got me hooked. I remember very well going "OH ♥♥♥♥ YOU" in a good way though.

What was not so enjoyable
- there are stealth missions in the game and although I did them I was not really into the idea.
- this game can kick your ass when you play, even on regular some missions were beyond difficult.
- the factions are cool but the way RTS's play can feel repeated and bland.
(build base, get resources, ♥♥♥♥ up other base, repeat)
- some units feel a lot weaker then they should. If you have the game, play skirmish and use the Infantry in the German faction, I know they're Level 1. melee and start weak but come on.
- I don't know if it's me but some abilities can feel useless, and others are a "win a battle" button.

What I want more of
- MORE FACTIONS PLEASE !
- mess with other time periods like the rise and fall of Rome, or the hundred years war or maybe even Asian campaigns.
- I would like more battles that involved castle sieges. The Germans seem to be the only ones and that sucks.
- please diverse the soundtrack a bit, I know it's in Europe but the soundtrack pieces can sound too similar sometimes.
- KEEP THIS GAME ALIVE, I DON'T WANT TO PLAY ANOTHER DEAD ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ PROJECT

NECROPOLIS IS A HUGE MUST FOR FANS OF DARK SOULS AND DUNGEON GAMES!

In Necropolis, you choose a character and begin your journey into the depths. The goal is pretty simple, explore the randomly generated dungeons and see how long you can go without dying. This game will kick your ass if you don't watch yourself or bring some friends along, multiplayer is really fluent. This game has no real story but has small fragments of obscure lore for anyone with a love of exploration.

Here's some things that I think make
Necropolis shine:
1. Badass design
2. Cool dungeon atmosphere
3. Fun multiplayer (kinda recommended)
4. THE WEAPONS ARE DOPE (kind of want more types like magic or other types of weapons)

Here's the things I have problems with:
1. The smaller characters you choose swing a little to slowly
2. No other colors were really use other than blue, black and somtimes red???
3. The starting room doesn't really change as much as the dungeon does
4. THOSE PEICE OF ♥♥♥♥ CROW ASSASSINS THAT STEAL MY ♥♥♥♥ LIKE FIVE TIMES

What I would like to see:
1. Have some kind of boss or mini bosses to test the player and to keep the game challenging
2. More types of friendly NPCs, this is a pretty big dungeon and no other soul is seen
3. More colors used and new types of terrain, like red castles or green mazes or purple sewers
4. More people playing this (this game is awesome and I want a community so bad)

All and all this game is amazing.
