This looks like the live stream of the gameplay reveal, starting now:
Highlights as I remember them from the live stream:
- Play progresses through 3 ages: Antiquity, Exploration, Modern
- Continue as a different civ when starting each new age
- Map expands with each new age
- Leader choice is separate from civ choice
- Districts
- Christopher Tin soundtrack
- Gwendoline Christie narration
- February 2025 release
Edit: Here’s the rerun:
Also noted :
- Navigable rivers
- terrain has cliffs
- armies seems to be condensed, with generals leading them. Fighting looks to be constant in some way? (or that’s just the render for the trailer)
- cities seem to expand much more
- the leaders looks to have some stats which can be improved
- Play progresses through 3 ages: Antiquity, Exploration, Modern
Anyone want to bet there would be more ages after DLCs are released?
I’m guessing Industrial and Information ages added before and after Modern age, respectively.
Interested how the map expansion will work in multiplayer.
Concerned about the era resets.
I like what they appear to have taken from humankind (eras, leader swaps, outposts/yowns, map elevation?) and old world (tile improvements culture bomb)
Also concerned about how the maps seemed to just be cities, no gradual domestication of the world with farms, mines etc.
Concerned about the era resets.
What resets? The impression they gave was that you keep what you’ve already accomplished when moving to a new era. (It’s always possible that I misinterpreted something, though. I guess we’ll see.)
