I bought it the very day it came out for no real reason and fell in love with it. Put about 500 hours in it before any updates happened. Played a little since then but those higher tier biomes are pretty brutal. Gonna wait until it’s 1.0 before jumping in again. Best $20 ever
Same boat here my friend.
1000+ hours, lots of intricate builds. Post Ashlands has been miserable.
With all that, still the best $20 I've ever spent in 43 years of gaming.
Ah man you’re my age. Check out UFO 50. Second best ~$20 ($25) I’ve spent
Or I could just play some sweet Master of Magic (DOS version)... a game so beloved it's still getting actively modded some 30 years later!
I have such a ridiculous backlog to play. Such guilt.
I remember that game with the purple box. When I was 13 I worked in a computer store and remember thinking the box was pretty cool.
I played it finally around 2010 but kind of bounced off since I had no idea what I was doing lol. I can see why it still has a following like HOMM
It defined a genre. And had some pretty advanced concepts for the time (the first game I played with right-click help pop-ups).
It's still being worked on, mostly via Caster of Magic. The 'reboot' is OK, but a bit too slavish in copying the UI issues.
