Why medieval city-builder video games are historically inaccurate (2020)
#HackerNews #medievalgames #citybuilding #historyinaccuracy #gaminghistory #video #games
I kinda wonder if you're going through the same pipeline I did.
Where initially I was looking for "city builder but solarpunk and bicycles" but found what I *actually* want is "resource management for a community, but you're incentivized to balance your production to your needs, and disincentivized from overproduction".
and like, both of those are niche genres atm, but they're distinct.
I've found Arcs (board game) and Against the Storm (video game) scratch the second itch well, because it's not really possible to snowball to complete control - only to keep responding to your environment in more complex ways.
(Block'Hood ticks both boxes!)
