However, many users report performance issues, crashes, and subpar graphics quality on lower-end systems, leading to frustration.

    • “The graphics honestly ruin the game.”
    • “I would say the graphics are on par with games that came out around 2009 - 2012.”
  • gameplay135 mentions

    The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players noting its janky mechanics, lack of depth, and repetitive nature. While some appreciate the improved graphics and the potential for large-scale battles, others criticize the basic controls, limited character movements, and persistent bugs that detract from the overall experience. Overall, the game shows promise but requires significant improvements in gameplay mechanics and content to fully engage players.

  • optimization132 mentions

    The optimization of the game has received mixed feedback, with many players noting significant improvements over its predecessor, particularly in handling large-scale battles with thousands or even millions of units without major performance issues. However, some users still report performance problems, including crashes and lag, especially on lower-end systems, indicating that while the game is generally well-optimized, there are areas that require further refinement. Overall, the game is praised for its ability to maintain high frame rates and smooth gameplay under demanding conditions, but some players feel it still lacks comprehensive optimization options and stability.

    • “The optimization is a major step up; in the original game, putting 100k units on screen would tank your framerate or just crash your game.”
    • “Incredible well optimized for millions.”
    • “The performance is greatly optimized; you could put a million units and still be over 60 fps somehow.”
    • “Unfortunately, the game is plagued by massive performance issues and instabilities.”
    • “It's a poorly optimized, visually unappealing, and content-lacking game that fails to deliver on its promises.”
    • “Same game as the last one but with less content; the game is said to have better performance but I just see worse performance on my side, plus a battle takes 20 minutes to initialize.”
  • stability65 mentions

    The game's stability is a significant concern, with numerous users reporting persistent bugs, glitches, and performance issues that detract from the overall experience. Many players have experienced frequent crashes, broken AI, and problems with unit spawning, leading to frustration during gameplay.

    • “Runs great even with millions of units on screen.”
    • “Even runs great on my GTX 1060 6GB at medium settings... can't wait to see how it is when my 3060 comes in.”
    • “I have spent 2 hours troubleshooting and nothing seems to fix it.”
    • “Abandoned by devs, still a lot of glitches from early access; for example, if you move far enough to a different spot on the battlefield, the units in RTS mode will forget their orders.”
    • “There are more glitches and issues running it than at launch, and it has gotten noticeably less stable with mods over time.”
  • story61 mentions

    The game's story aspect is largely criticized for its lack of depth, featuring only a few short missions that players can complete quickly, with many expressing disappointment over the absence of a robust campaign or narrative. While there is a limited campaign available, users note that custom campaigns are not yet supported, leading to a feeling of incompleteness.

  • grinding25 mentions

    The grinding aspect of the game is widely criticized, with many players expressing that it requires an excessive time commitment, often humorously suggesting that one would need "a second life" to manage it. The tediousness of unit placement and battle planning adds to the frustration, making the experience feel repetitive and lacking in innovation. Overall, players find the grinding mechanics to be a significant drawback, detracting from the enjoyment of the game.

    • “You'll need a second life for grinding.”

    • “The UI is bad, and planning battles on the map is very tedious and frustrating.”
    • “It's a tedious and repetitive experience that offers nothing new or interesting.”
    • “Even placing units using the map is tedious, and you can't even move units prior to starting the battle, meaning most of the time your soldiers are scattered over the map, stuck in hills, or just in places they shouldn't be.”
  • monetization11 mentions

    The monetization aspect of the game has been overwhelmingly criticized by users, who label it as a blatant cash grab. Many express disappointment over the developers' lack of commitment to previous projects and the feeling that the sequel offers little innovation, instead repackaging old content for profit. Overall, players warn potential buyers to be cautious, as the game currently fails to justify its price.

    • “Buyer beware because this game reeks of a cash grab.”
    • “This sequel honestly just feels like a cash grab.”
    • “I hope it improves over the years, but so far it looks like a cash grab idea to sell exactly the same game as before with fewer features and pretend to improve it by adding old units that were already there in uebs1.”
  • replayability10 mentions

    The game's replayability is a mixed bag; while it offers significant freedom for creating epic battles and has potential for future updates and modding, many players feel it currently lacks depth and longevity once initial ideas are exhausted. Technical issues and a high price point for what is perceived as a bare-bones experience further detract from its replay value. Overall, while there are elements that could enhance replayability, many users express disappointment with the current state of the game.

    • “The game's enormous replay value comes from the freedom to create epic battles according to one's own imagination.”
    • “The depth of play and customization options offer tremendous replay value, while improvements in AI and game mechanics indicate potential for an even more challenging gaming experience.”
    • “The graphics have been significantly improved, and the addition of new units and factions adds even more depth and replayability to the game.”
    • “For example, there is a neat fluid system where you can create a lake of blood from fallen warriors or recreate the great flood with god powers and a new 'flash flood' weather option; however, this game still severely lacks replay value.”
    • “No, but for massive battle simulation it is the best by far, though bare bones at the moment. I can see this game getting more and more updates and gaining even more replayability over the coming months, but as of right now, the price is a bit high for what the game offers.”
    • “The trailer was also misleading - we saw Chuck Norris and John Wick, neither of which are playable characters in this game.”

    • “The game's environment is rich and detailed, creating a captivating atmosphere that draws you in and makes every moment feel significant.”
