    If you're watching this, the game is still super worth a buy, including the 3 DLCs available. And they're currently working on a 4th DLC, which they update us about in their Steam blog.

      Should i start my first adventure with all dlcs? Or is it the same at the start?

    • @danielmacoveiciuc
      @danielmacoveiciuc 4 роки тому +3

      @@kkaruzo7716 given how the game loves to torture you and make you start over and over (because your brothers will die a lot at first), I'd say don't buy the DLCs yet. start the journey vanilla, just like most of us did. I already have 450+ hours in-game :D

    @Aklaz-u7q 11 місяців тому +1

    The game is excellent but I do wish it had gotten a DLC or something that added something along the lines of establishing a village, turn it into a castle eventually. Nothing too deep in terms of management or simulation but a base, and some benefits (maybe minor benefits) to owning it, and then it could get attacked and you can assist your garrison or something. I know a mod was made for this but I could never get it to work.

      Good times for shooter fans as well as rpg fans.
      I’m hoping Menace in 2024 will turn out to be at least as good as Battle Brothers. Hyped up for that game, so I’m here watching BB reviews lol.

    Matt if u got time on ur hands, please review battle brothers blazing sands with LEGENDS and STRONGHOLD mods installed (their plug and play, install legends first and stronghold after and you can start the game).
    it will probbaly take you at least a hundred hours to get any bearing on it but i'm sure u'll have a shit ton of fun. (deepest game u will ever play in ur life).

      Not sure if you’re still struggling but the battle brothers subreddit is super helpful. Like overly so haha you can google “tips for beginners battle brothers Reddit” and tons of threads will pop up.
      I learned with beginner economic settings, high starting funds, and expert combat difficulty (no Ironman so you can experiment with strategies when you encounter unfamiliar enemies that you haven’t solved yet). All enemies have reliable strategies to beat them, it’s just finding out what those are can be really painful, especially on a blind Ironman run.

    @JohnRed 7 років тому +2

    Tried it and I hate it. I am so sick of these masochism simulators. You just get fucked over in the game, just absolutely destroyed in every encounter. You are constantly managing your losses. Almost every encounter is 12 heavily armed men or overpowered undead/direwolves that rape you. The rewards allow you to do nothing but replace the men that died during the quest.
    This is like a mix between Mount&Blade and Darkest Dungeon. Absolute torture to play.

    @nnmmnmmnmnnm 7 років тому

    A couple of the comments have asked you to review this game, including mine, so I'm very glad you chose to do it. I am going to guess that you think it is worth a buy before watching the video and will eat a big slice of humble pie if you don't like it. My only worry is that the price on release is higher than it was during early access but I guess that is the way the early access model should be working for all publishers (ie. you get it cheaper if you buy it while they are still making it).

    Hey Mac, quick suggestion. You bring up how shite the gaming industry is now, FPS, and 3PS's especially. Why don't you do worth a buys for some of the good older games that people can still play?? Maybe not everyone will go out and give em a try, but maybe enough will that peoples opinions of todays gaming markets will change

    I have this game, it impresses quickly, but it fizzles really quick (~16 hrs into BB). Mount & Blade Warband doesn't fizz out so quick (I've got like 600 hours into M&BW) as there's a ton of other things to do besides combat. But Battle Bros, it's just combat. The reason is everything you do has zero consequences. The Worldmap is very static, factions don't interact outside of a scripted event, you can't even plunder towns, or attack caravans (you can eventually, when you become an enemy of that faction), but even so, attacking their caravans cause nothing to happen. Do the towns run out of supplies? Nope. Does it affect their troop equip, training, wages or morale? Nope.
    For a sandbox, it is a really shallow one and this is the biggest drawback of the game.
    However, the tactical battles are fun, because it's challenging, deep and really tactical. It should be $19.99 though, as the shallow sandbox drags it down.

    Very good tip and yeah its totally worth a buy :D Like open world Darkest Dungeon ala nostalgia from FF tactics and all platform strategies before in those days with a pinch of M&B and voila a splendid dinner is served. Liked it Alot even if its hard as fuck :) But im to stubborn to go all in as a noob in Veteran mode

    The fact that warriors are jumping matryoshkas kills any interest in this game for me.
