I really liked this series 15 years ago. Last one I played felt meh as if they really hadn’t improved the series at all. This one still looks like it came out 10 years ago, but has dragons. Have a feeling this series just needs to stay a fond nostalgic memory for me.
Maybe it was more fun as a kid as I had people to play with.
I still enjoy it but agree it would be great if they made an effort to evolve the series into something more modern, or something with more depth. Like many developers they’re just on cruise control to maintain profits and won’t dare take a risk.
They have tried that a few times, it doesn’t work. People don’t buy them and people aren’t interested in a “more modern” EDF. we want EDF, we are okay with the bad graphics because we want thousands of ants. all that matters are the ants, and how many of them there are. But for real they have tried to do what you want a few times. you might like the Chibi Blocky version they made on switch, or the unreal engine version they made for ps4 a few years ago, or the xbox 360 version they made to appeal to modern tastes. fans didn’t.
also this is a tiny studio of just a handful of people, they aren’t “on cruise control”.
I am a fan, have played every single version they’ve released save for 6. They have never broken out of their lane, in my opinion. I’m not asking for a fundamental shift in gameplay, or fewer ants (if you play long enough you’ll discover there are also spiders, aliens and more), and I understand the limitations they’re under being a small studio, but I can still dream of something more.
