Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
90 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Plus, it has the original campaign progression (where you unlock new buildings and units, meet and ally/fight with masters, and actually carry over progression between levels) that I prefer over the standalone campaign levels in this game.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
49 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Replayability is strong thanks to varied shard worlds, faction options, hero builds, and customizable scenarios, allowing experienced players to approach the same systems from radically different angles.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
46 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Worth a look if you like the Eador series or strategy games with HoMM-style combat.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
28 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Also, previos game "Eador. Masters of the Broken World" has amazing story Campaing "with big C", that story is 200+ hours long, and has insane replaybility with about ~10 possible endings.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It keeps a lot of the 2D graphics art/icons from the previous games.
