When you were hoping for a new settlers 3 or 4 but instead you get, whatever this is.

[Valhalla.Studio]

Played it for few hours this morning! Big fan of Settlers!
Thoughts so far!

Pro's :
The graphics and the art style is really nice, even though its only locked to medium settings in the closed beta it already looks better and more detailed then the new AOE.
Glad building roads is still a thing always enjoyed that in the past, and its done pretty well in this one too!


Con's :
Well Jesus, pretty much everything else tbh, don't even know where to begin! :(

[AGMK]

Im pretty disappointed in this game, doesnt feel like a settler game. They took everything i liked about the settler and cut it out.

[finsenldid]

Good job nivarias by proventing me of buying this game.
Usually its the other way tho.

[johnnymartinjohansen]

Watched this while downloading the game. Then got to play it.

And what a piece of shit it is... This is the "dumb people / kindergarten" version of a Settler game, it's so simplified it's embarassing. And it also feels like crappy mobile games was the inspiration for it.

This is NOTHING like good-old old-school Settlers. Imo, not worth a single cent, simply because it's boring and bad. Tried it, won't touch it again. Screw you, Ubi, for having us wait over a decade for a new Settler game, then you completely fucked it up.

[КэтКэт-ят]

This is the type of game i've been waiting for long, looks amazing

[Fyrapan]

Both The Settlers IV & III is to this day (in my personal opinion) the best in it's franchise. Afterwards it just kept declining and declining and changing into something else entirety. I had high hopes for this game, but it turns out it's just another game that shares the name of The Settlers, nothing more to it.

Looks like I'll be sticking to IV & III until a new The Settlers game comes out, taking the roots of those games and expand on it, not remove and change it completely like it's been done up until today. Disappointing!

[hakan]

Mixed feelings. Return to the feelings I had when I played Settlers I + II and the settlers 2 10th anniversary. Those were real Ubisoft games all others have to live up too.

[dunneemofozilla]

from memory, settler games are a lot about logistics, transport. setting furnaces next to warehouse, blacksmith by the furnaces kind of setup, to minimise transport works better than forcing people to move resources long distances. you already noticed moving resources is a pain. also, did i hear you say poodiddlepoop?? are you related to ned flanders lol?

[JannemanVaarwater]

It looks like a wonderful mobile game.

[larsuppling]

yes, it is not Settlers 4 with better graphics.
yes, it is different then Settlers 3.

But it damn well is a good and solid nod to those same games with the mechanics and a better version of the Rise of Kings games graphics.

I look at this playthrough and find myself wanting to play it, which is damn well a passing grade from me :D

[derfailer]

I play settlers III and IV for over 20 years now here and then and nothing of this franchise comes along. Settlers V was an insult and 6 and 7 tried something different and 8 shots the arrow to the knee for every settlers fan. Its over! Can settlers die now? It wont be better in future.

[FrostRare]

If they’re gonna do this idle villagers standing around thing, they should at least make it look somewhat dynamic. Right now it looks absurd lol. They could be eating, playing the banjo, playing soccer, telling stories, taking care of pets, smoking bongs, you know, all that normal villager stuff.

Hey guys, remember that making a game in the series that changes like every 2 installments is quite hard. Depending what was your first Settlers game you have different perception of what it means to be "Settlers-like". Someone posted that he want walls back that were added first time in Settlers 6(? not sure but there was no walls in anything before 5) so for this person a feature that did not exist in this game for most of a time is a staple. Remember that in 5 there was no borders even and for people that loved this games border system is strange, people who loved settlers I and II hated at first that in III there is no road building system etc. This game will not meet everyone expectations it is simply impossible (Dawn of war 3 tried to merge mechanics from 1 and 2 that are basically polar opposites and it also did not end well). This gameplay looks for me like fast paced version of settlers IV with road building of II and combat experience similar to V (or AOE as people said). I guess I mostly miss the stylized art style in this one but it definitely looks like Settlers game in many ways, maybe just not like "yours Settlers game". So don't just bluntly hate but voice your opinions as what you liked in previous installment so they would try to focus on them in the future. Also don't forget that this game don't look like in the first trailers just because during alpha tests people hated that game and because of that everything was scratched and they started from the beginning so this game was in fact like 2 years in the development so they certainly tried to make good game, but sooner or later they need to deliver a product so I don't know if they can delay it again. I can see how a bunch of small fixes can make this iteration of the idea feel better, because I would say it is close to be good. Maybe this one will fail but there is always a chance for a nest one, that could be again completely different.

its important to note that during the 1year of nothing the former mind that was behind the first settlers(one of the producers that started it all with the others) left the team because ubisoft wants to make an AoE game in settlers clothes or minimum a PvP starcraft clone (just WAY WAY, WAY TOO FUCKIN SLOW, slower)

im very certain that if they wouldnt have changed anything about the actual game they would get way more money out of it but with this perversion of a settlers it is probably the final nail in the coffin...

also important to note, an online shop... the online shop already in there where you can buy skins for your border stones... my god... excusable IF THERE WOULD BE A REAL SETTLERS

i dont know if gamestar (german video game review) has english subtitles that fit very well, but there you can see a settlers maniac rant about the entire beta and with the story (or parts of it) how it came out like this and not like the trailers...

[cabbage]

Thought you were playing Endless Legend with that menu design.

[Greggiexplore]

Looks like a good chill game that you play while drinking coffee … nothing complex, just chill, which sometimes is fine.

[Mortac]

So the Blacksmith makes bows... that's a little weird.

[TheMythio]

The tower animation was not a healing animation, but an attack animation. The button/text in the Tower description is wrong. The healing is for the bastion, not the tower.

[deloron]

Played a lot of Settlers 5 back then. Still play it sometimes, but mostly just to create my own maps
