The only reason it isn't 5 Stars is because of constant minor updates, crashes on console, and a lack of a meaningful roadmap. Having said that, the game itself is excellent. It scratches an itch that I don't believe any game does in the same way. Hands down one of my favorite games of all time, what impresses me the most is the actual POTENTIAL this game has for the future. Extremely easy game to mod if you're on PC, and if you're on console, the port is very good. There IS crashing on console in some sieges depending on the volume of troops and settings, but other than that, it's exactly the same as the PC version which I appreciate (unlike some PC games like Civ that basically give console players a "Lite" version).
Super addicting, good luck playing less than 500 hours.
