What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
You'd think this will make for a fun replayability, but it doesn't.
Graphics are already dated - kinda cute and ugly at the same time, music is average at best (I play some medieval tunes from outside the game with music muted).
You're basically getting a modernization of the original Knights of Honor, from way back in 2006, with some user interface improvements, some obvious graphical improvements, and even some of the wonkiness of the era, too.
Character portraits and animations give each leader a distinct personality, and the soundtrack — full of medieval instruments and sweeping orchestral themes — adds a strong sense of atmosphere.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 3 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
