Elemental: Reforged is a turn-based strategy game where players create their own heroes, their civilizations, and explore a procedurally generated fantasy map. The team from Elemental: Reforged reached out to me for an interview, and given the fact that I have been doing fewer of those recently, and you guys seem to love them, I was like, “Sure, why not? Let’s talk about Elemental: Reforged, and see what makes this turn-based strategy RPG so special”. Below, the team at Stardock discusses what it took to reforge this new title, which comes out of Early Access today!
I have played Fallen Enchantress / Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes (from back in 2013) and I thought it had a lot of potential, I liked the tactical battles and hero focus.
The economy system seems a bit boring (although it's not usual for 4X games to have relatively primitive economy systems) and there were some seemingly minor, but extremely annoying things about the UI/UX.
I guess I should pick this up and see how they've refined things over the past 10+ years.
I also had fallen enchantress. In fact I has the original elemental too. It looks extremely similar tbh. Dunno stardock designs keep disappointing me in the last 15 years. I feel like age of wonders 4 has all this has to offer and more
It looks exactly like Fallen Enchantress, I would have never been able to tell the difference by the screenshots.
But I expected that from Stardock. :)
Exactly my thoughts. They say that it's improved graphics but it looked practically the same
