Anyone have any impressions on CK II?
My review plus video plus video plus video should give you a good idea.

Great explanation of gameplay. If this game doesn't ship with a tutorial, this would serve well.
Thank you and the game does come with a tutorial: it throws up explanations of each screen as you encounter them the first time through the game.

Do you do a lot of video?
I am doing one video for each game that I review, plus some special bonus previews if I get early copies of games.

I'm actually looking for something a bit simpler. Trying to get into Sins right now, but it's hard with the 20-30m bites of time I have, due to it's learning curve

Tried Endless Space? Here's me playing it for an hour and a half.

You got the original Crusader Kings II?
IIRC he said it was excellent.

It is. And here is the promised video semi-review of Sword of Islam.

Jaguar, any chance of Civ 5: Gods + Kings or Crusader Kings II: Sword of Islam reviews?

No (never got the original anyway) and maybe a video (watch my video channel) but not a full review.

I really appreciate how you down-rate it for people who already own Sins. That really helps me make my decision.
I've recently done that for standalone expansions, as a lot of them are poor value for owners of the original game but better options for newcomers.
Bet wrote on Jun 13, 2012, 15:14:
The engine really does have great graphics, but you have to zoom in to an unplayably-close level to appreciate that. Then you zoom right back out and stop seeing them for the rest of the game.
True

I don't think I've liked any of their expansions, especially for $40.

Err, Raccoon City has been out on PC for weeks. From what I've read, it's a pretty half-assed port of a game that was already half-assed to begin with.

Here's my review

Who plays Free to Play games? I do not pay attention to anything that's free to play. My basic presumption is that they're rubbish titles. Especially the shooters.

Tribes Ascend is not rubbish.

When they said polish I figured as in on par with Braid or Bastion, unique art-style, superb music, and that...

Really? When games release videos to the public, those are the graphics that are being used. I've never seen a game, especially an indie one, show video content and then drastically improve the graphics between then and release. Improving the graphics would likely result in a complete rewrite of the code and delay release for a year. I think your expectations are unrealistic.

All I can think of is.. what are those 200k $ going into? Because sound, animation, graphics, music, effects .... that's certainly not where.
