Dynasties didn't work for me and I tried two different games. Maybe I clicked wrong.

Economy seems borked. The first game I didn't build a town and so couldn't afford anything. I couldn't even afford militia.

I focused on making a town first in second game I started and that did help. I don't recall it even being this hard to make money. I don't think the AI could afford either.

It was difficult to continue to level up my characters at a certain point. The xp gain in a city isn't great.

I still can't make heads or tails when a city is supposed to grow or not with surplus grain or pop cap. It's always been confusing to me.

Graphics are great.

The battles are smooth and interesting.

I enjoy the lore and events and they weren't repeatitive.
