It's pretty much comparing apples and oranges, like if I said I'd rather play Call of Duty than Overwatch because Overwatch sucks because of its strong team-based gameplay format.

You can't really compare the SH series with Total War, even between SHC and RTW. While I think a lot of your concerns are warranted, with respect, there are some things I think you haven't taken into consideration:ġ.

Overall the game should've been made with a simple pace or at least have some normal missions where the enemy doesn't constantly spam mercenaries at your gates. I am familiar with the speed settings but they don't change the annoying AI! You simply cannot ignore the arabian mercenaries when logically you should be able to! I like the crusade units more but the developers decided that I can go play some better RTS like Rome: Total War instead. Given the unusual process of decently making units and that it takes TIME the game is inconsistent with it's own rules. I don't have stone as it's to the north where obviously I cannot defend it as I need to spend the starting 50 stone for tower and walls as the game says I must do it ASAP every single skirmish map. At the very first mission I am put in the sh*ttiest spot possible where I am having issues putting on the stockpile!!! There is barely enough place to start producing bread let alone making my own weapons and armor. My soldiers were at aggressive stance so it wasn't like they were standing still and being taken out one by one. They were probably a group of 50-60 or so.

I played Crusader Extreme and got frustrated even with the first mission! You can tell me that it's easy as I get free knights but guess what? They suck! I got 10 knights on horses and literally a group of archers managed to kill them with MELEE attacks!!! And they weren't much archers. The game tells you how you must play it with zero options.Īnother unrealistic part is the sieges - I destroy towers and in a second the enemy rebuilds them like WTF?! Also how come there is no surrender for the AI when all his castle is on fire and everything is in ruin? You simply cannot normally play the game by your own style. Other issues are the lack of grass - this is a big deal as it removes the gameplay elements of having multiple sources of food and ale for your population!!! Sure I can get several food sources but it's very inefficient having just one apple, yellow cheese and wheat farms! And it won't be enough for larger population. but it's very inconvenient when you are FORCED to do it in every single player vs CPU scenario as you are attacked the very first minute!!! Seriously what kind of a dumb designer decided that this is a good idea? For a game this simple (2D) this shouldn't be ever a problem!!! I know the game offers you to examine the area by hiding the walls/buildings/foliage etc. I mean it's extremely easy to miss a spot where the enemy can slide in to torch your base/kill your workers. This is stupid beyond all reason as it happens always regardless if you want it or not!įor a game who's MAIN focus is castle building the UI is SH*T. The game forces you to hire mercenary arabian units early EVERY SINGLE TIME as it takes too much time to make crusade units early game. Keep in mind the crusade units are just like in the original Stronghold so what new you are left with are the mercenaries which are also arabian units.

At least the campaign offered some special units for a change(Army Men not Crusader.). Whatever units you have the enemy also has them - not much content right there just like in the game Army Men RTS. You build your walls, gather resources, raise an army and destroy the opponent. You are supposed to immediately build your towers and walls as otherwise you won't be able to as the enemy will get too close. ALWAYS do everything faster than you as he is CPU controlled :) ALWAYS have gold to hire unlimited arabian mercenaries and he ALWAYS have positive popularity even if everything is destroyed and he has no food and he This is both extremely unrealistic and annoying as this way every game is the same over and over again. As soon as you start the enemy throws hundreds of soldiers at you and he doesn't stop.

One of the main issues is the absurd tempo of the game. It has some major annoyances which I don't find in any other RTS yet people claim it's "the best rts" which is bull as the Total War Series are a lot better excluding the mosh pit Rome 2 is sadly :(. I don't understand the high ratings Stronghold Crusader has.
