De ce que j'ai pu voir, Songs of Conquest a un un style "pixel" un peu comme un Heroes2 en mode "sombre".

I don't think my old computer can run it very well so I haven't played it yet, and I'm not really a early access kinda guy (prefer finished/polished products). Am always on the look out for similar games so I'm very much looking forward to this one! I wishlisted it a while ago and have been following their dev diary videos.

When I fist saw the game I wasn't blown away by the screenshots and was worried their pixel art style had made things not as good as it could be, however once I saw videos of the game in motion with every animating and all the gorgeous colour usage I fell in love with their style. I quite like these hybrid 2D-3D retro style games that have 2D retro art mixed with coloured lighting placed in a 3D world with a fixed camera perspective to create a sort of colourful retro 'parallax scrolling' effect that really brings the world to life. Very nice!

Here's some more info if people haven't seen it yet...

Sadly the full release in Q1 2024 hasn't quite worked out but apparently it should be coming pretty soon. Some of the updates over the last 6months have been pretty cool. Old campaign overhauls, new campaigns, maps, graphics, even a new main menu and GUI overhaul to support steam deck, new castle siege combat, and many AI improvements.
