Stronghold 3 User Review

Mikelangelo1

Its the worst of its series. It has problems that even the first stronghold didn't have.

Difficulty:
Hard
Time Spent:
10 Hours or Less
The Bottom Line:
"Broken"
Although the game has some new good features such as rotating of building before you place them , so you can fit them even in a diagonal place, it gets really annoying from pretty early on.

The bad graphics really have now excuse.
You can not adjust game speed (as was wih previus installments)
Placing of walls is harder for no actual reason!
Many timed missions which limit your choices of strategy.
And the worst of all. Units do not hear you orders!!!!

For some reason when you drag a box to chose all units, all units are not selected in many occasions!!
Units many times do not attack even when the enemy passes right by them EVEN if you have turned "Aggressive stance" ON!!!
And the most annoying of all, units do not form up !!! even when up the walls! they stay scattered and place themselves where THEY WANT...
This didn't happen not even in stronghold I.

Game is clearly broken and that is a shame....

  2. Really sad how the series went down from an epic game to this. I rated 6.5 to give the game a boost up only
