I have the sneaking suspicion that one of the character designers had an infatuation with Doctor Doom, this character from the main menu of Kohan II: Kings of War has quite a striking resemblance to him

Okay, Divinity 2: Ego Draconis is just too busted to play, maybe in the future when I'm more willing to install the fan patches that supposedly fix it I'll give it another chance, but for now I'm going to shelve it

So I am now switching to something that could be interesting for a video and replaying the obscure #realtimestrategy Kohan II: Kings of War, for those curious, it can be seen as a more complex version of the first LotR: Battle for Middle Earth

Switched cloud storage providers and I decided that while waiting for my files to be downloaded to my local machine, I went ahead and fired up #RedAlert2 7vs1 AI.

Okay, I've finished #AgeofDarkness my final judgment is: mostly positive, if you want a detailed explanation, here's the review I've made on steam, the text is too long for the alt-image, so here's also the link if you have a screen reader

I've done a bit of a cleanup in my Steam Wishlist, thirty or so games were removed, half of them are games that were announced but got eventually abandoned, or games I hoped would get better with updates but never did

Also, I think I figured out what caused those stutters in #AgeofDarkness

The game was made in Unreal Engine 5 ๐Ÿ˜‘

I have the creeping sensation that the stuttering in #AgeOfDarkness is mainly provoked by the subtitles when the characters speak, I've just beaten a level with few dialogs, and it almost never lagged, how does it happen that your subtitles are slowing down the entire thing!?

Homeworld is a space-based real-time strategy game where you lead the Kushan exiles to reclaim their homeworld after their planet is destroyed. You build fleets, gather resources, and navigate 3D space to defeat enemies. The game features a powerful soundtrack by Paul Ruskay.

Continuing my journey into #AgeOfDarkness I've discovered more prickly edges

For starters, units don't tend to stay glued to one place when idle, and can get carried away, which is bad if you want to keep formations orderly

Second, despite having a Radeon 6700xt, Ryzen 5700g and 32 gb of 2666 mhz ram, I've encountered some annoying stutters, hopefully setting the graphics at medium should fix this

I've decided to pick the RTS #AgeOfDarkness up, I bought this during its EA period because I liked the concept of a game like They Are Billions set in a fantasy setting, but I was a little dubious because the post-release reviews are lamenting the presence of game-breaking bugs, so I wanted to see for myself once and for all

So far so okay, apart for some janky animations and lacking audio
