Greetings, strategy enthusiasts! Apologies for my recent absence – I’ve been devoting much time to improving my cardio routine. As a result, when the day ends, I find myself too exhausted to compose thoughtful messages other than jotting down some ideas to ponder over during the weekends. I trust you’ll understand, and soon enough, we should return to our usual rhythm once I reach my weight goal within a couple of weeks.
Players Aren’t Happy With Civilization VII
Unexpectedly, the release of Civilization VII last week hasn’t been met with favorable responses from players and critics alike, making it the worst-rated game in the series so far. The main issues seem to revolve around a confusing user interface that lacks essential information, frequent multiplayer disconnections, poor map generation, and complaints that the game is less complex compared to its predecessor, which many found relatively simple to begin with. Additionally, some players have commented on a sense of “emptiness” in Civilization VII, which isn’t a positive sign.
Take Over The World In Heart of the Machine Out
This week I’ve begun exploring Heart of the Machine, an innovative game freshly released by Arcen Games and Hooded Horse. In this title, you assume the role of the first self-aware AI, with humans oblivious to your existence. The choice is yours: utilize your newfound consciousness and power to instill fear in humanity, or aid them in improving their lives. I’m really enjoying my time with it, even though I haven’t delved too deeply into its mechanics yet. I must admit that the game turns out to be more complex than initially expected, and it can get quite detailed. If you’re a gamer who enjoys focusing on intricate details and find the concept appealing, it might be worth checking out. Currently priced at 30 euros, Heart of the Machine is still in Early Access.
Door Kickers 2 Comes Out Of Early Access
Four years after its Early Access debut, Door Kickers 2 has been officially released, earning widespread acclaim in contrast to Civilization VII. At the moment, it boasts a remarkable 95% Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam. In my review from 2021, I hailed this tactical-strategy game set in a top-down perspective as “a classic in the making” and recommended it if you appreciate free-flowing, top-down tactical battles with authentic and harsh combat. It seems my assessment was spot on.
Commandos: Origins Out April 9th
It appears that after various postponements, Commandos: Origins is expected to launch on April 9th. Initially slated for late-2024 release, the game encountered a delay following valuable input from the demo unveiled in October. The team then decided to push back the launch date to March, focusing on improving performance, AI behavior, and voiceovers during this time. Subsequently, they set April 9th as the new release date. As a fan of Commandos and Commandos 2 growing up, I’m looking forward to Origins, although the demo hasn’t quite won me over just yet.
MicroProse Announces Liquidation
The game titled “Liquidation,” which takes place in the conflict-ridden universe of Veá, where science fiction and fantasy intersect, is going to be released by Microprose. I hadn’t come across it before, but the trailer seems intriguing, and the factions appear as a blend between Warhammer 40,000 and Starcraft 2, which has piqued my interest. Fingers crossed that there will be a campaign included in the game, and I’m hoping it won’t solely focus on multiplayer.
The German Last Counterattack Arrives Soon In Headquarters: World War II – Ardennes
It’s fantastic to note that Headquarters: World War II is still thriving and delivering fresh content. Coming soon is the expansion, Headquarters: World War II – Ardennes, which delves into the final significant western offensive by the Germans, their desperate attempt to divide the Allied forces in two. This new expansion offers two new campaigns for each side of the conflict, amounting to a total of 16 new missions. Players can face these challenges with an additional 12 late-war units and 5 new heroes. Additionally, there will be new weather and terrain types, winter uniforms, and camouflages.
Wargame Design Studios and Panzer Campaigns – Poland ’39
The skilled team at Wargame Design Studio is about to unveil Panzer Campaigns – Poland ’39 soon, marking their first game to incorporate the 4.05.2 standard upgrade. A comprehensive rundown of bug fixes, improvements, and content adjustments can be found here.
Hooded Horse Announces That He Is Coming
The phrase “He Is Coming” might sound a bit ominous, but if you’re a fan of nostalgic visuals, you’ll be delighted when you see this game because it marks the return of the Demon King. Developed by Chronocle and published by Hooded Horse, this game is titled “He Is Coming.” It’s a turn-based strategy auto battler where you’ll play as a knight, tasked with halting the demonic invasions.
Bellfortis Out Now
Rake in Grass, developers of Bellfortis, provided me with a game key, but my schedule has been too busy to fully explore it. It appears as a streamlined option compared to games like Medieval: Total War and Crusader Kings. It combines a large-scale strategy map with real-time tactical battles. If you’re into medieval games, it could be worth checking out. However, I wish they would tone down the oversized character design, as I find it aesthetically unpleasing. The game became available on Early Access on January 29th.
Soldiers: Heroes of World War II Updated After 20 Years
Occasionally, you don’t expect a game that’s 21 years old to receive an update unexpectedly, but when it does, it’s definitely noteworthy. For instance, Soldiers: Heroes of World War II, the precursor to the Men of War series, received a new update in January. This update included Steam Workshop support, compatibility with Windows 10 and 11, network multiplayer functionality, and 4K resolution support, as well as some other improvements. It’s truly delightful to see such a thoughtful update.
