The good and evil guys are back in it and yes the tutorial is somewhat frustrating but its over quick enough and after that they only make random comments on important stuff.

The villagers dont talk at all unless its a quest or you're killing them. In further news I have since decided that building an army is only worthwile if you are purely militaristic. Otherwise just making your creature a killing machine is more effective.

Creature battles in this one are autonomous. no random clicking of body parts and such. you just bring em together and they duke it out. Theres bloodiness now too.

Also dont worry about influence dissapearing in this one and timing your grabs for stuff outside of it. If something is outside your influence then its out. No wildly trying to get something.

The best part of this game is the city building hands down. I've made some unintentionally beautiful and impressive cities one pice at a time.

My only real complaint is the way you have to build walls in 5 seconds after getting a new city otherwise an enemy will come by and attack again.
