I was eagerly waiting for the release, but the PC version doesn't have very good reviews. So, don't think I am going to give it a try anytime soon.

The Settlers used to be such an interesting series, I wish they’d find their form back again at one point.

Settlers 2 was such an amazing game. Just remake it!

[–] yoyolll 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

In case you didn’t know, they did remake it in 2006: https://www.gog.com/en/game/the_settlers_2_10th_anniversary

It’s probably due for another remake at this point since, somehow, it still remains the best in the series after 26 years and 10+ games, but I’m personally getting really tired of playing the same games over and over again with shinier graphics.

Heh, this remake looks like how I imagine the original game to look like. I wonder how the original one looks like.

Well, while I do agree with your point, it seems they aren't able to make a good new game, so what else can we ask for?

Only announced for PC yet, but…

If you are waiting for a real new The Settler, watch out for „Pioneers of Pagonia“ from the creator of the original settler games.

Yeah, @lemmylommy mentioned it about. Thanks for mentioning it, didn't know about this before.

PC Version is pretty bad, which came at no surprise given its terrible development history. Better wait for pioneers of pagonia, the upcoming game of the original settlers creator. Not sure if it will be released for switch though.

Better wait for pioneers of pagonia, the upcoming game of the original settlers creator.

Wow, didn't know about it. Let's hope it comes to consoles, my PC isn't strong enough to run most games.

Thanks for the heads up!
