Hello all! I am very excited to say that after a lot of work over the past few months, the demo is now live. The demo was previously set to be released as a separate prologue, but now due to changes with Steam has been released as a demo with a separate page.
In this 45-minute prologue, you will follow a path as the devious Duke of Histria against the elderly and decrepit Emperor Lucius Vetus, defeating rebellions and rivals, growing your power and armies until you can unseat him.
This is a vast improvement over the demo that was released last year, which I found to honestly be half-baked. Major additions to that previous demo include:
- Improved battles
- Improved graphical quality
- Better storyline
- Resource management
- Procedural cities and farms
- Dynamic seasons
- Food and starvation
- More detailed map with more settlements
- Building management
- Terrain effects
- Management of unrest
That's just the beginning. It now has a ton of quality-of-life features and a lot more general polish that will, hopefully, make the game a lot more entertaining.
