Recent reviews by DEVITO

I will give you my insights of the first look while playing as Lithuania.

I like:
- EU financial involvement in mostly everything
- Debt tab changes
- Vaccination priorities and contracts
- Option for foreign exchange students
- Option for scientific cooperation between countries on a specific discovery
- Days of Culture to celebrate a foreign country traditions
- 5G Internet
- Organisations' data (population & GDP)
- Cause of death tab
- Map changes

I dislike:
- No significant changes to migration system
- Wrong data (population, illegal immigration, ethnic groups, cabinet composition, political tendency, etc.)
- EU regional development map being a complete mess because, for example, Ile-de-France in France is coloured in red just like Vidzeme in Latvia, however provincial tab says Ile-de-France has 3* stars based on category of EU development, while Vidzeme - only 1*. Thus map is showing wrong data. Moreso, I would expect it list regions rather than member states.
- Still no option to rename objects (like solar plants), cities or regions.

Generally speaking, my first impression is a soft "Yes" for as long as I don't face a (serious) bug but I guess if some of those "I dislike" parts would get fixed or added, it would become a hard "YES!"

Well, I though it would be nice to give a review of the game since I\'ve been playing it for hours already.

First of all, I\'ve been playing Power&Revolution from the first day it was released. In English, of course. I remember then, that I\'ve been so pissed off because of so many crashes that I didn\'t wanted to play these series at all. That\'s what happened - I filled for refund and received it.

Believe it or not, my PC was acting crazy and like the thunder from the clear sky, I\'ve got a PC as a gift from my parents, well, you know, just in case the old one would broke. Then I realized I could check how GPS4 is working on my new PC. First, I wasn\'t as happy as I wished I\'ll be. Same crashes were happening again. I found a way to overcome it - been saving week by week, month by month and a year or so in-game, I\'ve noticed it doesn\'t crash anymore. There comes the other thing, looking for bugs.

As far as I\'m concerned, no housing bug was found by me. I mean, all manpower was returning in time and I was glad with the result. It\'s probably because some people choose to fix 200k dilapidated houses by splitting it over the country. I haven\'t checked it, since I like managing a lot and do improvements region by region on my own.

Some people are complaining about UI. What can I say, I actually like it. It\'s like a remembrance to Commander in Chief. Also, the text now is way more readable when in Masters of the World or Rulers of Nations. I like it. I guess, some colours could be changed, e.g. in the tab of promises (that red and blue, ugh, nooo). But all in all, it\'s pretty good.

New features like opposition, revolutions and a new system of peace treaties (I\'m talking about the right to demand your enemy to pay you money for years) are brilliant. Well, some things can be done better but as far as I see, it\'s good.

I really like the fact that inflation is no longer linked with the growth rate. In previous versions it was killing me and my spirit to play the game. From now on, my economy can suffer deflation and yet it can have a growth of 3-4% per year. Great improvement! What else, ah, treasury. I\'ve been waiting for it since Masters of the World. Unfortunately, there\'s no such thing yet. But it was re-done as if it\'s there and it works. If you\'re in a huge surplus, you don\'t need to worry anymore of getting deposed because of using money a country don\'t need (just make sure you aren\'t wasting it, like building unprofitable roads and etc).

So, I guess I sort of liked this game. I\'m not sure if it\'s brilliant in general (lots of improvements and possibilites can be implemented yet, especially regarding to new and in-game organisations, regions managing, currency and stock exchange), but it\'s clear that lots of work has been done from Masters of the World. Personally, I\'ve recommend to play it. Unfortunately, the price is a little to high as it still has many various places to improve. All in all, I say 7.5 is pretty accurate rating to this game.

Bye.

I really enjoy playing this game. Everytime you are able to choose what kind of ruler you really wish to be and to write a new history of the up-coming era. Lots of possibilities are implemented, such as trades and tourism sectors are simple but well played. Yet, this game has some bugs which can irritate over time, but all in all I would recommend to buy it.
