A Tale of Salt and Rage: BUGS - Humankind - Let's Play #5 - Greeks - Nation Difficulty Full Release
A quick disclaimer: this is a frustrating video. But I'd rather show my live reaction than re-record just for the sake of making up for things that I've since come to understand as game mechanics. Still, with as many balance issues as there are in the game, it's also really annoying to see bugs as simple as "load the game in the same state as when you saved it," and this time it is very much to my detriment. So, enjoy an unusually not optimistic view of Humankind. Not that I've ever been accused of it, but no one's paying me off for good coverage. I play things because a) I think they're interesting and b) I'm having fun.
This video was one big strike to point B. And worse, it prompted me to put a Negative review on Steam pending fixes to a multitude of issues in Humankind -- both balance and bugs.
Humankind is a strategic turn based 4X where the goal is to do everything you can to be the greatest civilization the world has ever known. That could be through war, through culture, or just by firing rockets off into space. There are many avenues to take as you play through the game, weaving from culture to culture and adjusting accordingly. But at the end of the day, the choices are for you to make. Will you lead humanity to salvation, or will everyone else be forced to bend the knee. It's not unlike Civilization, but Amplitude Studio's Magnum Opus carries itself on its own two legs. In this series, we'll see how far we can run with it.
