不知道为啥,打完一次次野战、攻城、围城后就感觉很落寞,只想退回桌面。没有2009年那年拿到第一座分封的村庄(已被洗劫)的激动;没有初玩solid and shader的奇特沉浸感;没有16th北半球的开疆扩土的激情;没有维京征服主线剧情的悲凉;没有潘德/战争之风新纪元的魔幻旅程;没有订婚舞会的启蒙;也没有几十个小mod的合集盛宴。。。每当我面对格式塔意识一般的家族对话,和永无止境的重复的野战、攻城、围城,再也提不起干劲,一次次的更新也只能让我多玩一两个小时。可能是我老了,但骑砍依然年轻

简单来说玩家需要的是什么? 1.2版本的环境,加个能玩得开心的海战 1.3版本都更新了个什么? 战利品大削(重点在于流氓习气大招直接变成废物,以后大后期都不能愉快的刷精炼钢抢劫商队来批量给NPC升级了),不能用来快速升级的NPC和成年后就是白板家族成员都是废物 藏身处可以进攻了?那有什么用处,现在劫匪到处都是,NPC刷这个不比刷藏身处的带盾海盗、山民、远程绿林强? 玩家们玩你的单机游戏就是为了开心的,作为单机游戏最蠢的一点就是把游戏的亮点一个不差的全部削掉 一个沙盒游戏,不去维护增加可玩性的mod,不去增加可玩点,却像电竞游戏一样去搞什么平衡,你巴弓削了等于没削升级之路照样丝滑,关键你削可汗做什么?贵族之子那小破弓那射程连劫匪都打不过,还需要坐骑升级的值得你一视同仁吗?! 医术大削,和瓦兰对射得损失大半巴弓,训练时间成本大幅增加,瓦兰迪亚就算是民兵的武器伤害都比可汗的大,更不用说马上用弓等级缺失的问题了 加强了极度精准的导弹标枪却没有给诺德,且不说幽默5级动物朋友那少的可怜连4级兵都不如的的二三十头甲,还有那孤悬海外开局就被瓦兰攻下的一城一堡,光是库塞特的骑兵大军1000人坐镇乱干诺德2000之后又送掉两个城堡,我很怀疑你们有没有认真玩过游戏? 海战最多八艘船,没有增援,NPC军队能随时登陆下海但商队不能,幽默外交强国全盯着弱的打,还有花钱的结盟,没有明显作用的贸易协定(也就在期间
