Thank you very much for the in-depth review and constructive feedback, and of course the score. A lot of our focus in this first year since release has gone into fixing many of the issues reported by the community and also improving the game with both balance and quality of life updates, but that is not to say that we are not wanting to add more new content to the game as well. More stuff is coming for Humankind 🙂

Every time I see a new video from ReviewGen/GamerEmpire, I know I’m in for one of the most thought-out and well presented reviews around!

An excellent review btw - you do the most in-depth and informative reviews out there. It's much appreciated.

Hey, welcome back, man! Got anything planned for Jurassic World Evolution 2, now that we’re past the Dominion Biosyn Expansion?

The art design and music in this game are amazing. Unfortunetly the problem begins with the gameplay (which isn't terrible, but underwhelming).
The ideal 4x game for me would be a civ gameplay and mechanics mixed with humankind's audio-visuals.

Wouldthis game have good educational value learning about cultures and how civilization systems work irl?

"unusually well optimized Unity Engine" lol not quite

I loved endless legend it was great, have tried endless space but it looks amazing however after playing endless legend countless times I see a lot of similarities between the games and that's sucks because it's just turns out to be a glorified history game without much depth into the cultures.

2:02 Stop calling Endless Legend a fantasy. It is still a sci-fi setting but with technology being attributed mystical properties because the lack of understanding how it works by people of Auriga.
