an OK game but needs alot of improvement
User Rating: 7.5 | Stronghold 2 PC
this game has many up's and downs. one pro to this game is the gameplay. while u engage into a battle, you can actually see your men fighting with different techniques (somehting different than the old versions). i previously bought the older versions and were Very Good. they graphics on this version is comparable to the older versions but it is very boring. the actual ingame play isnt all that bad. one thing they need to work on is the campaign. its VERY boring...unlike most games, they have special units in campaign. this one, i dont think there are that much (played very little). this might've been one of the worst letdowns to the stronghold class. this game is though still comparable to the new version, Stronghold "Legends". ive seen that game at friends places but doesnt keep with the stronghold concepts. they added magic units into the game which is a major change to the entire strongehold series. all the games, were based on skills and castle building. Stronghold 2 might stlll be a little behind on my top list of games but it shows great improvment from the older much cheaper looking versions (Stronghold Crusader).
