   If you're looking for something new and fresh in the 4x genre or strategy games in general, you will not be disappointed. This is truly a gemIf you're looking for something new and fresh in the 4x genre or strategy games in general, you will not be disappointed. This is truly a gem of a game.
   
   It boasts a beautiful UI, streamlined game play, fresh approach to combat, depth in gameplay, 8 UNIQUE factions, gorgeous campaign map, that will have you hooked. I've been playing PC based strategy games for almost two decades now, and have played almost every major game you can name. With so many disappointing releases lately from AAA franchises this is truly one game you should get your hands on. While not perfect, this small Indie company is fully supporting their game with a very open dialogue with their community.

The factions are very different and dramatically change your playstyles and priorities to a point that a playthrough as the "Broken Lords" is entirely different from a playthrough as the "Roving Clans".
   
   Your units and heroes are customizable though you are limited by your faction to certain types... with that said you can also conquer other minor factions, absorb them, then customize their units to fill any gaps in your armies. There are several different minor factions too so it feels pretty well filled out.
   
   You expand your cities by building them out.. so it's a pretty neat system where as your population expands a la Civilization you don't get an expansion in your influence area but instead are able to build additions to sprawl your city out to utilize more resources. Kind of a neat twist on the Civilization system of expansion.
   
   If I had to try to chop away at enthusiasm for this game I'd say you need a decent machine to run it because in the later stages of the game it can get pretty hard on your system resources, even chugging some systems to a complete halt and prevent you from finishing the game. I'd also say the graphics are... I don't know... not dated but maybe just a little bland?
   
   All in all if you're a 4x strategy fan and dig the fantasy setting then this is the game you're supposed to buy this year.… Expand

   It does almost everything right. It has clever 1_city per region mechanic, which prevents city spam. It has adequate expansion rush drawbacks. You can’t build and research everything, you have to make decisions. And the quest and hero mechanics are also well done.
   
   The only (but quite huge) drawback the game has is AI. It’s simply bad, I've finished my second game run (I stared with one race, played for two hours, then decided to restart with another race) on impossible difficulty (2nd most difficult) and I wasn’t even challenged. I’m afraid this issue will not be fixed, the game is too complex for dev’s to make competent AI. It’s quite an indie title, and even Civ 5 dev’s couldn’t handle AI. They can scale up AI bonuses, to make it cheat, but that’s not really a solution.

They each have a unique feel and play differently from one another. You get to customize your units and keep upgrading them forever which I really like. They mixed in a small number of RPG elements into a turn based strategy game, which is nice. Hero's, equipment, quests, temple exploration. You can micro manage combat, but after the first couple of battles I tend to just auto resolve it.
   
   This game does have issues with stability though. It tends to crashes every so often and gets slow in late game. Which is why i give it a 7, fixed those stability problems and it gets a 8.… Expand

There are considerable posts in the Amplitude and Steam forums about the game not loading, or crashing constantly. I myself have not been able to play the game at all as it always crashes on world generation.
   
   All the countless responses and workarounds never worked for me, and indeed for many others. I would love to actually play this game and give it a fair review but after trying in vain, the game simply never worked and I gave up - so anyone reading the reviews, or thinking about getting Endless Legend - be warned that this game does have significant issues and may not work for your system.… Expand
