I may be in the minority on this but I really wish they had ground combat in this game. It would be amazing to see Napoleonic armies fighting across your lands in the wheat fields as cannons fire and the smoke lingers in a haze.

[@daz5872]

maybe a future dlc?

[@pedluc2010]

they said it would be too complicated to implement and that, looking at the data from the other anno games, it would be underused. I myself never bothered to use the ground combat in anno 1404, 1701 or all the others. I think it was a smart choice to focus on other things, even if I understand the sadness that some people might see in it

[@RaptureZJ88]

@@pedluc2010 Yeah. I just like the idea in my head. I understand their points. I just feel like the conquest of other islands is a little lacking in any form of real depth. In my mind I think it would be cool to see units of 200 sprites comprising one unit of line infantry and cannon batteries of 6 or so. Wouldn't even to be RTS control but more just two armies shown on the island fighting it out over a period of time and you can make certain actions during the duration to affect it. Like "Attack flank" and they make a error so you win or something. I know it isn't a combat heavy game is more about building. Just a personal fantasy I guess. lol

I haven't played 1800. So there are now 3 types of islands, like the Orient/Occident dichotomy in 1404? That was the a wonderful aspect of the game (which I found missing in the postapocalyptic one, whatever it was called). This really looks like a great successor to 1404.

[@RepublicOfPlay]

There’s 4: old world (europe), new world (tropical) arctic and now africa. There’s also a second old world as well that you can go to.

[@RepublicOfPlay]

The DLC will work with existing save games - so it's really up to you - I personally don't think you need to restart, but it could be fun to start a new game a few days before the DLC comes out to sort of "get ready" for it!

[@NYCamper62]

As much of a pia the Enbesa storyline is it's interesting to a point. Most will go through it at least once. You can skip a lot of it though, when you first get there the king prompts a quest for the story. Just cancel X it. You'll still get quests for the other rewards but no Archie's island.

[@R3GARnator]

I love Anno 1800 but I find managing the multiple regions overwhelming.. idk why I have a problem with this game in particular, I can manage the mechanics of stuff like Paradox games, but for whatever reason as soon as I reach the new world and start managing two regions I get disinterested and overwhelmed. Anyone got any advice?

[@Koeras16]

The game can get quite overwhelming. Automating things get somewhat complicated.

[@johnnyd3387]

Have escorts on your trade ships. Two if you can three is the sweet spot. That should stop you being distracted by pirate attacks. I think when you have to keep checking on ships it throws your mind from developing what ever island your working on. Fire stations everywhere so your not distracted by fires.

[@Cyprian96]

Same, it starts out fun but then it just gets way too much all happening in real time. As nice as this looks I'm getting exhausted just trying to think about trying to get everything running in the new area while I have 2-3 other worlds going on in the background!

[@rwpage89]

Johnny D I appreciate this but it isn’t really my issue per se - it’s more managing the building of 3 separate worlds that gets me. I focus so much on the first island to get it nice and organized and optimized, then the new world comes into play and I start getting hectic with placement of buildings just to get the resources I need online. Then the third world comes into play and I feel like I end up just throwing stuff down to build it, versus actually managing an economy and infrastructure.

[@Spanky872]

[@BobFrichtel]

I re-watched your previous DLC videos. You seemed to suggest with those that you wanted divergent story arcs, then you get it and have issues with it. What caused the change of opinion, or was it just that you have to sit through the narrative elements?

[@RepublicOfPlay]

I guess it comes down to not being able to pause what’s going on while you’re taking part in the story side of the game. I like getting quests and having different outcomes, that’s been good fun and good for replayability, but some of the walls of text that arent voiced you have to follow around for 10mins, then you just click some rocks and trees and they get removed, progressing the story - that stuff feels a bit more like filler and I guess I just feel a sense of urgency that I have to wait around while the AI doesn’t. If it was up to me, I guess I’d have branching quests with different milestones asking you to deliver certain things to islands so they can be build things in stages. Like deliver X to this island OR this island and you’ll get different rewards and outcomes. Build a navy to defend against an attack or, divert resources to help them defend themselves- things like that, that present you with a challenge for your economy, not distract you away from your own affairs.

[@BobFrichtel]

@@RepublicOfPlay ahh that makes more sense. And I've seen the same claim in other reviews as well. The pause feature is what we all want to change. Glad you had fun, and this make me so excited for the Land of Lions.

somewhere in your video you mentioned about having a Research Institute Monument, do you need to build this monument and your scholars in the same island? or they can act like all other tiers by linking them with piers? And those research, does it means you can only use it on the island you research it? I hope it does not screw me up, i spent so much time populating my crown fall ...

[@RepublicOfPlay]

I’m actually not 100% sure, but I think yes your research institute needs to be on the same island as your scholars. Shcolars don’t work jobs, they just generate research points. Sorry but I don’t know how the late gme research works, we had limited time sith it, so I’m not sure if you can change fertilities of all islands for instance or just the one you build on

Yes it is unfair to have black individuals as they are overly represented in Anno 1800. As inaccurate as it is, for the game, I suppose it makes sense if they are adding scholars into this DLC they'd be best to come from the new region. Jokes asides, I think it's good that Anno 1800 keeps historical racial contexts and doesn't change anything to be "pc".

[@Rastlin86]

For me, core problems with this game are still not addressed - the absolute lack of challenge. New region just increase the micromanagement requirement, that's all. The AI is still dumb as a rock, and half way through artisans you are able to subdude 3 x T3 AI without issues. Scholars being gated behind investor is another big fail, they come in at the time when you are mostly already done with the expansion of your empire, giving you ability to remediate issues of your land should come at around workers tier so you can have actually any benefit from it. This game while have very sophisticated economy aspects, mostly feels like pointless clicker, you expand your empire just for sake of expanding, with no real goal in sight, which is very sad indeed. Also I don't need story in those types of games, I should be able to make my own via gameplay and diplomacy.

[@raffg8185]

Half of the stuff in these DLC's should have been in the base game ,nothing but a ripoff to milk more and more money ,state of gaming is a disgrace half done games released and then they charge you more money for stuff that should have been in the game anyway .

[@RepublicOfPlay]

The game absolutely did not feel lacking in content after it came out. Totally disagree here. The base game of Anno1800 has more content than the older games in the series that never got DLC. I think it’s totally fair to call out companies with empty husks of games at launch, or that strip features they previously had with nothing replacing them, but this is just not that game.

I'm honestly excited just to see Embesa itself. Accurate or at least positive fictional depictions of Africa are pretty sparse in video games, and already I'm loving this take on what looks like to be Abyssinia/Ethiopia at a level of detail I've never seen before, especially with the monastic, literary, and engineering touches on the region's economy that's true to real life. Plus the fact you need Embesa to have this powerful scholar's tier smacks down so many bad stereotypes, regardless if that choice was deliberate or not. I just wish we got a setting with more than two tiers for once, like the Techs in Anno 2070. Hopefully, the DLC's storyline proves to be more engaging than what we got in the main campaign.
