Game News Expeditions: Conquistador Sequel Announced

[tuluse]

Expeditions: Antarctica; are you a bad enough dude to take down the Emperor Penguin

I would also play expeditions: mountains of madness

 

[Slimu]

Expeditions: Slavery; you are a ship captain going in Africa to find some quality black people to sell to the white folks back home.
On a serious note thought, I expect something like Expeditions: Heart of Africa where you go up the Congo or another great river and get in the local politics between the new white man and existing tribes. Maybe even get to find some ancient african civilization from which all mankind appeared.

Expedition: Britannia. With Stygian Abyss added as a DLC. Because fuck you, Garriot.

 

[jimmy_pvish]

Expedition: The North USA.
From a group of glorious southern redneck to teach their norther cousins how to:kwafuckyeah:.
Endgame area is San Fran.

I enjoyed my time with the game, though I did not finish as it was running quite poorly on my laptop and I was getting sick of the stuttering. Last thing I remember was pissing off some savage town and needing to flee, may have taken the chief's wife or daughter with me. Good times. Hope to get back to it at some point.

I do hope they go with a fog of war for the next one, rather than the fixed camera. Spent an annoying amount of time spinning it around to try to see as far as possible to work out if it was worth spending move points on going in this or that direction. Fog of war with unlocked camera would feel far better.

I've already known the answer to this since September

aaaaaandd?? when do you plan to share it with rest of us?

when you donate to my patreon

don't donate to this dumbfuck, I already gave him a copy of the first Expeditions game as it is.

the theme is Vikings and the Vinland Saga.

I've already known this since before September.

Roxor is the most balanced and impartial reviewer on the Codex. We simply can't afford to lose him.

This is the plan so far. Obviously it's still early and things can change, but this is definitely one of the things we're pushing for this time around.

Portugal was a country of about a million people in its golden era after the Reconquista, that fact it discovered half the world by itself is an astonishing accomplishment. Even today it only has about what 10 million people? Staying power was hard to get, and the defeat at Ksar-el-Kebir just complicated matters. Blind nationalism is stupid I agree, but a bit of pride and exceptionalism does not hurt, its better than self loathing.

While I see your views as pretty reasonable, don't mistake my take on Portugal's history as self loathing. I have nothing to do with the deeds of my ancestors and while I'm glad of the nice things they did, I don't pretend to deserve any more credit for them than anybody else from outside Portugal.

That said, it's pretty cool that basically the deadliest ocean animal is named after our manowars. Portuguese navy, back in the day, was THE bomb, basically. Not technologically (of course, really) but in terms of sheer ingenuity and willpower. There's plenty of outstanding stories about Portuguese soldiers fighting bravely, against all odds, it's pretty amazing actually.

But as a Sabaton fan who gets all hyped up for valorous deeds of war, I may be biased.

Avonaeon So since you have decided to descend once again and interact with the lowly commoners for a while: What about the Gamersgate version of the first game? Will we ever receive any patch past 1.5?

Didn't Gamersgate switch to selling Steam copies? Either way, I'll ask what's up with that. And I like interacting with you guys. It's always.. interesting

A lot of publishers use them as Steam outlets nowadays but they offer all kinds of options: Steam Key only, other DRM, DRM-free copy via Gamergate's servers, DRM-free copy + key redeemable on steam. Expeditions is of the latter type.

Do excuse my crankiness but you guys never replied to any messages and the only response you ever gave on your mostly deserted forums was "redeem it on steam, lulz", when Gamersgate had always been selling a DRM-free copy (with the option of Steam activation added later on). No hate, though, just grumpy grandpa mode.

But please do look into this and make the 1.65 (or the other planned patch, should it ever arrive) available for the DRM-free Gamersgate version. Right now it's still on v1.5, as can be seen here.

Vikings are good (and my original guess way back when), although I was shilling for a group of pilgrims during the Crusades.

Vinland Saga is kind of lame, unless Logic Artists knows (or is going to make up, or speculate) something I don't.
