Endless Legend - PC Review
In mid-August I had the pleasure of getting my hands on a preview of Endless Legend and as I mentioned, I was very excited; after all Amplitude Studios is the development team behind one of my favorite 4X games, Endless Space. Some months ago when I heard they were doing a fantasy-based 4X game I was understandably excited; after all I am a pretty big fan of the whole magic, fantasy races, etc. Plus, swords and maces and magic are pretty cool too. When I then hear that Endless Legend was taking place in the same universe/mythos as Endless Space I was even more excited; Amplitude Studios was going to create a fantasy game using assets and histories from Endless Space which is one of my favorite game of all times.
Endless Legend - PC Preview
Amplitude Studios, the developers for Endless Legends, are also the developers for a spectacular 4X game called Endless Space, which as the title implies, is in space (one of my favorite environments ever) and covers galactic domination. Frankly it is awesome and any fan of strategy gaming has to play it as Amplitude Studios came out of left field and fell upon the unsuspecting population with a breakout hit in Endless Space, proving to gamers the world over that they had the chops to stand against greats like Stardock's Galactic Civilization, Sid Meijer's Alpha Centauri, Distant Worlds or the Master of Orion series. Amplitude Studios, coming off of the immense success of Endless Space and its DLC, Disharmony, they decided to flex their strategy muscles and enter the wild world of fantasy with Endless Legends. While the strategy genre is not new to them, Amplitude Studios wanted to be a bit different to begin with, something to differentiate themselves from other fantasy-based strategy games.
