World of Empires 2 9+

I got this game around two weeks ago and have been playing a lot since. Even though I truly enjoy this game there are some problems.

The first problem I have come across is while playing against the easiest ai, all they seem to do is beg for research and produce a plethora of troops. After the first 20 turns they have the whole map pretty much swarmed with troops. This is pretty annoying as they could easily just organize them around their cities.

The next problem I have is with the trading system. The system is overall not very useful (except when I need to get research quickly). This could be fixed by adding a better relationship system with other countries, this would bring in some diversity to the overall layout instead of just having war, research, gold and diplomacy. Also some of the trades that are made don’t really make sense. An example would be giving someone research and gold in exchange for nothing.

Other than those two problems the game is pretty good. The game would have gotten a 5 start review if those two problems would’ve been fixed. If anyone is looking to download I recommend trying it out.

I was a fan of this series since june of 2018 and i really was under the impression it was just like sid meyer’s civilization. Thats not at all the case, as this game hosts a ridiculous number of bugs and head-scratching logic like how iron clads can’t sufficiently hold out amongst caravels, or how you can infinitely use the same cargo ship or caravan.
Diplomacy isn’t at all stable nor does it make sense most of the time. NPC’s who i was friends with merely minutes ago declare war on me for no foreseeable reason. Not to mention half the times they declare war on me it doesn’t actually initiate a war. Giving back cities is no longer an option like it was in World of Empires (1). Not to mention back in the first one if you attacked an NPC regardless you will never be able to be on good terms with them ever again and even if you offer them ALL of you cities they will decline which makes 0 sense.
I recently made the discovery that this game isn't like civ when i played Civ 5 just yesterday. Much better UI that’s not buggy, more in depth relationships and better fighting mechanics.
Maybe this game could have been good, but in reality the developer for WOE 1 way too early and WOE 2 unnecessarily considering the last game came out a year prior. WOE 2 barely improves on the former’s gameplay and still doesn’t manage to impress. If you don’t have money go ahead and get this game if you really want to, but if you want a game that pleases look elsewhere.

This is a great game I enjoyed the first one and this one could be just as good I like most of the new systems mainly the new research and unit building systems. However the new communications system feels more sluggish and clunky I have also experienced some visual bugs like how sometimes farms won’t show on rivers. Combat is also clunky at times because the game won’t let me end my turn until I’ve used all my units. Overall this is a fun game that I enjoy and think could be better than the first and because it is still new I can forgive the bugs. Please fix the bugs later. good job you made a good game
