Who is going to play Northgard?

Post by fearfuloatmeal »

The game "Northgard" just got released on steam. It looks like a really nice strategy game that I will be buying in a few days. Who else thinks this game looks good and who might buy it?

I just finished my first game of Northgard. Overall it's not too terrible, just some bugs you have to deal with right now. It just came into early access a few days ago so the developers are still adding things. It is definitely not up to AoE's standards in most areas though. AoE currently has a larger number of strats and unit variety. Northgard is still an RTS but much slower paced than AoE, and my first game against the easy computer took just over an hour before I got a fame victory. You can't really rush to well right now with its current way of scouting. Well, that's a good bit of what I have to say about the game right now.

Doesn't really look like a triple A title tbh. Does seem to be a classic rts though.

I'm watching a review and it seems it ignores a few important basica rts concepts. Theres no fucking dragboxing lol.

There's dragboxing. And yeah you're right, it definitely isn't a triple A title. It also has a different feel than AoE, but it isn't too terrible over all.
