Reason I'm not giving this a downvote is I don't know if this is worse than other AoW games or not plus it's moddable and comes with a thorough tutorial although I don't think it's a good tutorial if you have never played a 4X. From my memory it also felt better than Endless Legends but I may be remembering the game wrong. It plays like Civ with heroes(generals that can level up and have an inventory and skills) as

Challenging yet still fantastic and whimsical strategy game. Graphics are interesting, music is not irritating.
