The Settlers VI: Rise of an Empire Gold Edition Reviews
(xp users: i haven't heard a problem from and i know a lot that play this game on it) the game play is nice the content is great. the game will crash every so often. i just wish they would fix vista to stop being so crappy or i'm switching to mac. GREAT GAME. once again vista gets in the way of a good experience. this is a great game.
-Somewhat restrictive camera angle. -Creative maps/scenarios that are generally not too difficult and typically take around 3 hours each. The good:. Maybe half of the scenarios end with you destroying another faction, but this is definitely not a military-focused game. -Immersive period graphics and another solid ambient period music score by Dynamedion (Best German Soundtrack 2007). You are mostly gathering resources, growing your settlement, expanding your territory, and fulfilling various scenario tasks, all within a usually very creative map that includes valleys, river crossing, mountain passes, and other fun strategic stuff. -Less complex than other similar games (Anno 1701), although what it lacks in complexity in the game engine, I'd say it makes up for in the variation and creativity of the maps/scenarios.
-Vegetarian rating allows you to replay old maps using a different strategy. This is a solid choice if you enjoy city-builder games. -Active user community creating custom maps for you. -Very solid game engine: never a bug or crash after 5 months of playing on Windows Vista 64-bit with a GeForce 9800GTX and graphics settings maxed-out. Cons:.
When I think of graphics, I don't think of what looks flashy, I think of what looks like art. The happier your citizens are, the more damage your troops do. I do enjoy the music and sound in the game. It's the first game in a long time that I actually admired it. I finished the original campaign, but haven't gotten through the expansion campaign yet.
There are only a few units to recruit. I bought this game on a whim without knowing much about it. The game does lack depth, other than keeping them happy, all you can really do is raise and lower taxes. I should mention, you can also trade with surrounding villages, but that's where most of the interaction with them ends.
That's all that you can get for combat. I don't really find combat all that fun, it's more of an afterthought than it is a major part of the game. That might sound really bad, but the strength of the game lies in managing your settlers and city. The only way you win in combat is by having a superior numbers of troops. However, there are a few things that come into play.
The gold version does not include a physical manual however, so that is one small minus for it. To keep them happy, you have to make sure they have enough beer in stock and medicine available, as well as other needs. Settlers: Rise of an Empire has some really high quality graphics. I had fun in the original campaign and I am having fun in the expansion so far as well. One small note about the campaign that you'll play: It starts off really easy, like a tutorial, but it does get harder when you get more into it. Some of the music is catchy, like the great festival music. Your settlers themselves don't say much, but your heroes that you can control and interact with do a lot of talking, and their voice acting is very good.
I am glad I did. It's not rocket science, but you do have to keep an eye on a few things. This gold version also comes with the expansion pack. If you're on your own land, as opposed to an enemy's land, you'll do more damage as well. Other than doing a quest for a village, all that you can really do with other villages is trade with them(or destroy them if they are an enemy).
This game is more about city building than it is about combat. How do you manage your settlers. You can't directly control your settlers, they do their chores on their own. It's more of the same with a few new things added, like a new hero to control and maps to play on. I have nothing bad to say about the game.
By building bakeries, hunting huts, barracks and so forth. For people wanting a city building game with depth, this isn't for you. The game does come all patched up so you don't have to worry about downloading anything extra for the game. It has a charm and a retro feel about it. This game has really wonderful graphics, full of color and life.
It's another reason why this game is more about managing your settlers, even their happiness affects combat. This is a really fun settlers game that's easy to get the hang of, there is nothing complicated about it. It played pretty smoothly, didn't crash at all, and was fun. You can recruit swordsmen and bowmen, with a few siege weapons. I never played the earlier versions of The Settlers, so I'm coming into this one with fresh eyes.
The settlers series has always been fun. definately a must have for any settlers series lover. as if it was a all inclusive answer, but this is of corse a LOT more immersive and enjoyable. i do miss the days of clicking on them and them saying yup. the latest does not dissapoint. it's easy to learn, play and still has the charm of the older ones.
