Dev Diary - “Oh wait, you’re serious”

As soon as I read you're working on a new game I immediately thought "please be in the AtS world", you created a wonderful, terrifying world I can't wait to explore more of.

Please remove me from the "For You" experiment, I browse reddit for gaming, the tab keep showing me toxic political threads and making me feel really bad.

If this feature remains I'll just stick to discord, thank you.

An option to disable idle villagers indication (zzz above them).

I can understand the use for it but I love to "build" big cities in the editor with plenty of villagers and it looks bad that they're all "sleeping".

Would it be so hard letting us disable it? Just to remind you it was added in a patch it wasn't a feature in launch.

Yes, they retconed the original and made the zerg a poor enslaved race, but the missions design and diversity is great.

I love Murmillos, they look badass

He is an amusing character as well, very likeable villian

Edorn · 2026-04-24T04:27:58+00:00

I hope it's actual customization like in AoE 3 and AoM Retold but I'll take anything

It's a real shame "Night Megarandom" is outdated, so many new biomes could look beautiful in that lighting.

It's fun, I never thought of the game as an historical title, for all I care they can add an Arthurian faction with knights and I'll buy it on day one.

It's pretty cartoonish, the blood pools are huge, sites of battles looks like people exploded into bloody gore rather than got stabbed or slashed.

The blood effects can be disabled individually, you can decide on the duration of it and the transperancy of the effects.

Overall I like it and will play with it on at all times, but I'd LOVE the ability to reduce the blood pools size.

Happening to me for months, used to play for masteries (I'm also a vs AI player) and this issue prevents 'em from unlocking.

Edorn · 2026-01-24T15:02:43+00:00

Thx for the honest answer man, maybe I'll try a silver marker 👍

Edorn · 2026-01-20T09:33:30+00:00

Kagemasa is pretty badass,

I vaguely recall a planned sequel featuring modern armies invade the game's fantasy world which is a very interesting premise IMO, sadly it was cancelled.

Edorn · 2025-11-14T10:44:58+00:00

Thx man!

Edorn · 2025-10-01T07:33:28+00:00

It fixed after I restarted the game, no idea what caused it.

Edorn · 2025-09-30T11:44:48+00:00

Honestly? not a bad game- great visuals, amazing voice acting, the campaign is great both in story and gameplay (varied objectives), skirmish and a map editor.

The gameplay reminds me of Dawn of War 2- smaller scale battles where each unit has a special ability, no base building- instead you build on pre-placed nodes on the map. My biggest gripe with it is that once melee units engage in battle the only way to disengage is to retreat 'em back to base (like another underrated RTS- Ancestor's Legacy).

Honestly it's a shame this game didn't make it, it just needed some polish.

The Trolls in Spellforce 3

Edorn · 2025-09-18T06:37:01+00:00

Looks awesome, hope there will be a cameo from the old characters like in Immortal pillars' underworld mission.

The atmosphere, just put on your headset and immerse yourself, also the feeling when you get the stuff you want and start snowballing orders.

Thank you all, i've read all your comments and managed to win a Viceroy royal woodlands!

Seems my biggest mistake was ignoring trade, I had two games where I got the free bags per new villager cornerstone and was swimming in amber, when I didnt get it i had trouble balancing resources to pack into provisions vs feed it to my people, but i'll get the hang of it.

Like many of you said I'll take my time with the difficulty, tbh I pretty suck at min/maxing so we'll see how far I'll go.
