"Okay game, but you can't follow Stronghold Crusader with this."
Pros: Just like all the Stronghold games, Great control, 3-d is a huge advancment.
Cons: Zoom in graphics are comparible to the Atari 2600, long load
Summary: I own all the Stronghold series.(Stronghold, Stronghold Crusader, Stronghold 2) When I sat down with Stronghold 2 I was not impressed. There are certain problems such as troop control and graphics, but the changes are huge. This is not a good thing technically. With the 3-D came huge downfalls. The must noticable of which is the zoom in and it looks like the peoples heads are triangles. If you want advice, don't buy Stronghold 2 buy Stronghold Crusader. It isn't 3-D, but the game play is better and it is easier to learn. It's still challenging, but it is more fun.
Stronghold 2 (PC):
