Title: Star Dynasties
Post by: Martok on October 20, 2020, 07:05:49 PM

(I could have sworn we already had a thread for this game, but apparently not... :doh: ) 

Anyone else following this one?  It's being billed as Crusader Kings in space, albeit more by the community than the developer himself (although he readily acknowledges the similarities).  Personally, I also get a bit of a Dune/Battletech vibe, which I'm really digging. 

I noticed there's also a demo now available, where you can play for 20 turns.  Definitely going to have to check it out!

Did you play any of the base game Martok? I've got it but to my shame I don't think I even finished the tutorial. How is it?

I've not yet played the full game yet, no, though I did participate in the beta at one point, as well as check out the demo (back when there was one available). 


My impressions at the time were that the game had a solid foundation, but lacked content/stuff to do; it was a pretty common complaint.  I don't know how much that's changed/improved since SD released back in September, though lead developer Glen Pawley has always been responsive to feedback/critiques.

I have also barely played the game so far but like what i've seen so far. But it's the same as always, too many games, too little time. But it is a game i want to spend more time with.
