Personally I think this game is strategically like Thea (you against a stronger world) and tactically like AoW/MoM or as it was called back in the day Tactical turn-based combat. Most think its going to be a civ like or master of Orion like game. It also gets a lot more expectation attached to it then just those 4 things listed above. But 4x is a just a random label someone made up like RPG and it caught on. If it covers these four things then its a 4x game. Wait, did you never play the campaigns? If so it makes more sense that you would only consider the games 4x instead of also rpg.īy the technical definition this game does fit as a 4x game.ģ) you expand (your territory does grow via apprentices and upgrades) That one had a good amount of campaign missions where you didnt have a city and you would just run around exploring and battling and doing quests/scripted events with your small band of heroes and units like you would in a rpg.Įven in the later games that was still an element core to the gameplay unless you ignored campaign mode entirely. Age of Wonders 3? I played all Age of Wonders games, including the original, first one. So its not surprising people compare this game to Age of Wonders. How are games that are more like ''2x'', great examples for what 4x games are like? Prior to Planetfall it has always been a real stretch to call Age of Wonders 4x games. Pretty much ignoring half the ''4x'' formula. The games are disproportionately balanced towards conquest and exploration. Area ''exploitation'' is basically just collecting nodes. In HoMM and Age of Wonders all the city management is only centered around producing more/better units so you can kill more. You seem to have a bit of a weird view on these things since you consider HoMM ''4x'' instead of a tactical/strategic RPG. They focus very heavily on combat and exploration with a lot of added RPG elements.Īside from Planetfall they also have a central campain mode with a lot of focus on storytelling. Αναρτήθηκε αρχικά από Jimib4158:Am i frustrated, yeah, i love AoW, but i will puke on the next players keyboard that makes the AoW comparison, lol, Aow is a true 4X, Eo is a spellforce RPGĪge of Wonders are tactical/strategic games with a lot of RPG focus.
