An sich bin ich einer der größten Stronghold Anhänger, spiele es insgesamt schon seit 25 Jahren, aber bei SC2 kocht mir echt das Blut hoch. Stunden verbringe ich in den Scharmützel Missionen, baue mich Stück für Stück auf, bin fast dabei die Mission zu gewinnen und dann stürzt es ab. Das Beste dabei ist, nicht mal einen alten Spielstand kann ich laden, stürzt ebenfalls ab. Einfach nur traurig, da habe ich echt keinen Bock mehr. Wird heute deinstalliert.

Vorerst für die Leute bei denen das spiel nicht starten möchte (keine Rückmeldung)
-1 klickt nicht ungeduldig ins schwarze Fenster, sonst sagt Windows das Programm reagiert nicht.
-2 wartet mal 2min und lasst es im Hintergrund laden, hat bei mir auch geklappt ohne die ganzen Empfehlungen im Internet (direct x neuinstallieren blablabla), dann hat es geklappt.

Zum Spiel... es macht richtig Laune, hätte ich nicht gedacht. Habe selbst Crusader (1) mehr als 100 Stunden gezockt und das nur auf diesem Steam Account. Es bring wirkliche Verbesserungen zu Crusader 1 und sieht einfach viel schöner aus, der klassische Spielstil ist jedoch geblieben. Wirtschaft/Burgbau/Belagerung. Für die Leute die Stronghold Crusader 1 gespielt haben eine deutliche Empfehlung!

Die Reihe hat sich sehr schlecht entwickelt. Ich hatte gehofft Stronghold Crusader 2 würde die Reihe retten aber die kleinen Karten die begrenzten Truppen und Gebäude haben das Spiel einfach wieder Versaut.

Ich bin mal gespannt wie viele Spiele die noch versauen müssen, bevor sie verstehen was ihre Fans wollen und was die Reihe damals Groß gemacht hat.

(Vorne Weg: Dieses Spiel ist mi so auf den Nerv gegangen, dass ich hier das erste Mal eine Rezension schreibe!)

Dieses Spiel ist ein absoluter Witz, wenn man eine Fortführung von Stronghold Crusaders erwartet.
Ich finde es interessant, wie die Entwickler neue Elemente eingebaut haben, die den Aufbau der Burg vielleicht auch schöner machen.
Aber, es gibt kein Wuselfaktor mehr (der zwar ja nie sooo ganz vorhanden war) ; Baukosten sind abnormal hoch ; die Truppen-KI ist dumm wie Brot (Truppen bleiben stehen, wenn sie angegriffen werden, was zu ihrer Abschlachtung führt) ; Truppen-Gesundheit ist unglaublich gering, es lohnt sich nicht berittene Truppen zu erstellen, weil nach zwei Pfeiltreffern die Pferde erledigt werden ; die beliebten Turm-Ballisten sind jetzt extra Türme...die nach 5 Treffern zerstört sind, aber selbst 20 Treffer brauchen, um die schwächste gegnerische Einheit zu erledigen. Baukosten für diese Türme sind so hoch, dass es sich ebenfalls nicht lohnt ; in der viel zu kurzen Kampagne hat die gegnerische KI nie Gold oder Nahrungsprobleme, weil ihre Truppen automatisch generiert werden. Da die angreifenden Einheiten aber in ihrer Anzahl immer mehr werden, werdet ihr als Spieler das Problem haben, denn ihr habt natürlich Gold und Nahrungsprobleme. So hangelt man sich von Angriff zu Angriff, die man irgendwie abwehren, aber nie zum Gegenschlag ausholen kann, um die Mission zu gewinnen.

Ich habe irgendwann abgebrochen und das Spiel deinstalliert. Wer ein Stronghold während der Kreuzzüge spielen will, der sollte lieber auf das klassische Stronghold Crusader zurückgreifen. Das macht deutlich mehr Spaß und hat viel mehr Wiederspiel-Spaß.

Ich habe mir das Spiel erst vor ein paar Tagen zugelegt und war so begeistert, dass ich die ´Story´ schon durchgespielt habe. Ich finde das Spiel sehr gut. Leider habe ich die Story schon nach 30 Stunden durchgespielt [Es hätte noch mehr Missionen und Maps zur Auswahl stehen können]. Ich habe das Spiel im Sale für 2.99€ gekauft und das ist es mir wert ob es für ein jetzt 29.99€ wert ist muss jeder selber entscheiden. Ich glaube für 29.99€ würde ich es eher nicht kaufen aber 2.99€ ist es auf jeden Fall wert.

Im Vergleich zum Vorgänger hat Stronghold Crusader 2 einfach nichts Gutes übernommen. Die Karten sind extrem klein und man startet unmittelbar nebeneinander. Zudem geht es geht direkt zu Beginn mit Angriffen der KI los. Eine richtige Wirtschaft und Burg aufbauen ist somit meist unmöglich.

Stronghold Crusader 1 ist im Welten besser.

Ich bin schon seit klein auf ein Begeisteter Stronghold Fan, Ich habe all die alten Titel gespielt und gemocht. Doch was sie hier erschaffen haben ist Ekelhaft. Das absolut schlechteste Stronghold das es überhaupt gibt. Da spiele ich lieber das alte Crusader und tue mir die schlechtere Grafik an als diesen Müll zu spielen.

Fazit:
-Sie haben nicht mal die guten Eigenschaften vom ersten Teil übernommen, sondern haben einfach alles neu gemacht. Man Möge denken das es vielleicht frischen Wind ins Spiel Erlebnis bringt doch dieser Wind stinkt so sehr dass ich es 2 Stunde gespielt habe und ohne zu Zögern direkt Deinstalliert habe.

Glaubt mir Spart euch das Geld und kauft eines der Älteren Titel, da mag die Grafik nicht besser sein aber die Spiel Mechanik umso besser.

Sehr sehr enttäuscht von den Entwicklern.

Trotz der Tatsache, dass das Spiel wieder recht nah an den originalen Strongholdteilen dran ist, kann ich leider keine wirkliche Kaufempfehlung aussprechen. Das Spiel macht zwar Spaß aber zu viele Bugs zerstören leider zu schnell den Spielspaß. Im Scharmützel geht es ganz schnell, dass das Spiel anfängt zu ruckeln und in meinem Fall ab 6 Spielern auf der Karte so stark, dass es fast unspielbar wird. Die Spieler haben auch eine sehr begrenzte Zahl an Truppen. Das heißt aber nicht, dass das für die KI zählt noch dass der Spieler auch wirklich die volle Zahl an Truppen rekrutieren kann. Hier wurde bei der Entwicklung nicht ausreichen darauf geachtet, dass Bugs entfernt wurden, noch dass ein Feinschliff an der Performance durchgeführt wird.

Das Spiel sorgt nicht mehr für das alte Stronghold feeling, wenn ich mich zwischen Crusader und Crusader 2 entscheiden müsste, würde ich auf jedenfall Crusader nehmen. Für mich gehört die 2d Grafik einfach dazu. Zudem war die Wirtschaft in Crusader besser

Ist auf andere Art und Weise im Vergleich zum ersten Teil auch gut. Man muss sich nur daran gewöhnen. Jedoch mag ich das Wüstensetting nicht, bin daher eher bei Stronghold 1 und 2 (3 wird noch getestet, die Wirtschaftskampagne soll jedoch gut sein). Deshalb ist dieses Spiel in meinen Augen jedoch nicht schlecht.

Ich gebe jedoch zu, dass diese etwas bunte Atmosphäre etwas so wirkt wie ein Handygame und nicht wie ein düsteres Mittelalter-Strategiespiel...

...Meine Meinung ;)

If you like unpolished games with bugs in all different directions, from texture errors all the way to game breaking glitches, this game is definitely for you.
If you are searching the good old Stronghold vibe, you should go to the classics like Stronghold Crusader HD.

Würdiger Nachfolger von Crusader mit viel besserer Grafik und Steuerung.
Tolle einzigartige Einheiten, die super taktieren lassen. Kampagne macht sehr viel Spaß.
Mal wieder sehr viele Karten und Gemetzel dabei, neue und alte Gegner.
Steuerung klappt gut, Grafik sieht auch auf 1440p gut aus, eigener Charme wie immer.
Auch nach 20 Jahren macht die Serie noch immer Laune, die Burgen können gut verteidigt werden.
Ein Stück Jugend, was ich mir zurück geholt habe. Der Preis ist aber lächerlich hier.
Ich habe meinen Key für 3,50€ bekommen, aber bitte doch nicht das 10fache (!!).
Klare Empfehlung von mir, weil es einfach nach wie vor tolles Konzept ist und um Weiten besser ist als Crusader HD oder generell Stronghold 3. Zudem gutes Tutorial und ein Ingame Handbuch!

This game is something like my biggest disappointment in the world. Graphics became too childish compared to the first game. It reminds me fortnite. And game became too simple. Many things got deleted -and we dont know why-. But we have candles now, WHAT IS CANDLES? In middle age economy, was candles that important :D? 12 years passed and still muslim sultans are building churches. And there are some new units. They are just too absurd or too op. i.e. if you stack nice amount of whirling dervishes, when you breach the walls of the castle, you just right click to the king and dervishes go and kill whatever there is on the kings building. And we have one granary, one stockpile, and smaller farm buildings. WHY? Why did you need to simplify things that much? We dont have engineers, dogs, traps, digging moats, and many other things anymore. WHY?! And you didn't even bring what we most needed in the first game, bigger maps. Maps are still too small to play with friends and stack huge armies and watch an enormous battle. And characters looking worse compared to the base game. Actually most of the things are looking worse than the base game. Only good thing about graphics in this game is, models are 3D. Thats it. That is the only thing they did good.

Plays like a Chinese knock off version of the original Stronghold Crusader with a weird mix of Stronghold 2 in between, but only the bad elements, most bugs from the original still in the game.
Pros:
- You can auto buy/sell resources now
Cons:
- Build limit, played with my friends and we could only place 60 buildings max. That alone made it unplayable
- Archers not shooting people attacking your walls most of the time
- Takes insane amounts of food production to feed your people, feels like double as much as in Crusader 1
- Out of all the mercenaries they buffed, it was freaking slaves. They take like 5 arrows to kill now
- Graphics don't look that nice most of the time, unable to change view to remove walls/lower walls like in Crusader 1 to help build your castle
- Random AI glitches
- Horse archers nerfed to complete uselessness now
- Alt-Tabbing out of the game causes severe graphic bugs when you tab back into the game
(Like 90% of the maps ground having no texture, plain black)

It also just doesn't feel like a smooth and fun experience in general. If you're a fan of the original Crusader, you probably won't be a fan of this version. Do not buy.

The short answer: the game simply doesn't hold a candle to its predecessor, if you're looking for that old feel of Stronghold Crusader, just go and play that game, you will not find it here.
The game simply doesn't feel right. The AI cheats and is overall un-interesting. The castle building is boring and you can't even drop down to see the foundation (Old vets will know) so building walls exactly how you want it is a chore.
Played this on 3060 video card and it still manages to stutter.

First Impressions

My first impression of the game automatically made me think of SH3. I thought this because of the UI (User Interface) and the way you rotated the camera. Also the controls are similar. Now straight away I had the awful thought that I had spent ?35 on a game, which like Stronghold 3 was broken.

But this is simply not true. The game is far better than SH3. Yes the game is similar in the way of UI and the gameplay, but it is different in the way that they have perfected what they could not in SH3. The game is far more optimized, meaning a decent computer could run it at 60 FPS (Frames Per Second) while maintaining fair eye-candy. The graphics look great and although it looks strange at first, after playing the second mission you are back into good old Stronghold.

Now allow me to discuss the game, more in-depth.

Grid Placements

Something that I love is the good old grid. We all love a good grid. Now for those of you who don't understand, the grid is the area of placement you have. All the Strongholds, except for Stronghold 3 (as far as I know) use the grid. This means everything can be placed in 4 different directions, where as without a grid you can place it in over 12. To some, the grid is bad, to me and most Stronghold fans it's a must. It allows for tidier villages, meaning you will be able to see everything in your castle much easier and it will look much tidier overall.

I'm sure this is something a certain Lord_Chris would like, keeping a neat castle.

Castle Defences/Walls

There isn't much to say about this but as it is different to SH3, I feel it's a topic I should cover. The wall placement is back to good old Stronghold 2 and Crusader. Walls (unlike other placeable buildings) can be placed in 8 different directions (towers and gatehouses are still 4). The walls are nothing like SH3 where it must connect to another wall in some occasions. You can place walls through existing walls, which simply makes building the best fortress, so much easier.

There are a few new defences in the game as well as old ones. Here are just some.

Burning Pitch
War Hound Cages
Spikes
Barricades

Of course there are many more, but this is all I can think of for now.

There are varieties of towers, with placeable siege equipment to go with them. Which again are easy to place and can be used to your advantage in defence.

Troops

There are all the basic troops you get in Crusader as well as some new ones. You can use the basic, armed peasants, spearmen, archers, crossbowmen, swordsmen etc. But there are also new troops such as Sargent at Arms.

The troops all have their own advantages, as well as new names. Spearmen are now called Men at Arms like in SH3.

Graphics

Something they have not let everyone down on is graphics. The graphics look great just like in SH3. The little details in the troops, walls, towers even the wood cutter huts have great textured detail in them. It really makes the game come to life and makes your castle look even better!

UI (User Interface)

The user interface follows which of SH3. It is really useful and quite neat in my opinion. It has everything you need in a small drop down box in the top right of your screen. Some players may not like it, but after using it for a while I'm sure you will get use to it or it won't even bother you much afterwards.

Controls can be very irritating especially with troops. I myself hate having to right click to move troops, but you get use to it after a while and really it isn't that big of a deal.

3D

The one thing many Crusader fans were worried of, is the 3D aspect of the game. Being 3D means that there are some features that just can't be added into the game. This includes the building cap and troops cap is slightly lower than which of SH2 and the troop cap is much lower than this of Crusader.

But the 3D graphics really do make the game much nicer and to me I like being able to rotate my screen.

The 3D is something you'll either love or hate, and there is a chance you will end up liking it.

Campaign

From what I have played, the campaigns are very fun for any players. New or experienced. Also with the option of being able to change the difficulty to suit your skill level, it makes the game even more exciting!

I feel the campaign can get tiring a bit but with loads of other features in the game, there's no need to worry about getting bored of it completely!

Skirmish

Skirmish is the same as Crusader. There is no huge difference in-game but the custom options make it even better. Allowing you to set starting goods, advantages, starting troops, even adding PT (Peace Time) into the game! They really did a great job in my opinion!

There are many other features in the game which I haven't covered. Simply because I have not had time to try them all out. But from what I have played so far, the game is absolutely phenomenal. For any of you who thought it would be a repeat of SH3, then I ask you to think again. The game is way better than SH3 and I would choose it over most other Strongholds.

Overall Rating- 9/10

The devs had the right idea. Take the OG game, make it pretty and 3D, rethink some of the tedious mechanics like granaries/stockpiles, add a few cool new troops like healers, improve AI difficulty.

They had the right idea, but completely dropped the camel. I played on and off for like 8 hours and I just can't bring myself to play more than ten minutes before I get annoyed and have to shut it off. They did all the things that I talked about at the beginning of the review, but they also decided to remove great features that made Crusader different than other games. Instead of making the AI behave smarter, they simply allow them to cheat.

The most unforgivable aspect of this game that makes it unplayable is the fact that your troops will literally stand around and get pelted to death without reacting. You have to micromanage every little tiny battle or encounter and it kills the game. The other game breaking aspect IMO is how expensive the cost to build a castle is. It takes thirty minutes to build a decent castle, and by that time you will probably already be close to dying and needing to restart.

They also seemed to remove slow motion game speed, and you can only cycle through normal, fast, and very fast. This sucks cause I loved being able to bring the game to a near stop so I could look around and contemplate my next move.

If you never played OG Crusader, I think you could buy this on sale and enjoy it. If you played OG Crusader, do not buy this at all.

Well Polished Game

I'm a lover of RTS games had played Age of Mythology,Age of Empire II,III as well. Really liked this game
It is fun,realistic and challenging at times as well
Balancing the economy and deploying units, storming the castles to forging your defense this game has all of it

It is gorgeous looking game even in today's time
Will enjoy this game for a while and will look forward to Stronghold Crusader III

As much as I love Stronghold Crusader 1... I think throughout the years I've played that one for hundreds of hours. Stronghold 2 is a massive downgrade from physics, graphics, gameplay, UI, and its feel of smooth castle economy building flow compared to the original.

It is playable, but unfortunately I do not enjoy the approach that was taken with its art and mechanical direction. It feels as if this game was taken from the original creators and handed to an outsourcing company who has a sense of direction and what the game was about, but had not themselves actually been Stronghold fans and gameplay enthusiasts.

It's sad to say but Firefly Studios definitely peaked a very long time ago.
I was very quickly put off by the terrible voice acting, something essential in order to create any kind of immersion and that was done so wellin the earliest installments. The intro video is also extremely cringy. Graphics quality is very low and the zoom level is locked so low/zoomed in that It's impossible to keep any kind of overview. The controls are awkward.
Even if you're nostalgic and it's very cheap, I would still not recommend it (got it for €2.50 myself IIRC)

It feels more like a *heavily* modded stronghold 2 than its own game unfortunately.
I'd only recommend it if its on sale for like $3.

It's fun for a bit but disappointing it doesn't have all the features of the original Stronghold Crusader. Not as many options when it comes to managing your castle like in the older strongholds and lacking building diversity I enjoyed from Stronghold 2, and I miss the little things like peasants talking when you click them. Also every FFA game I've played with AI they always target me and don't attack each other so that's questionable. I do like some of the changes and new mechanics with the units but the game doesn't feel finished and I'm not a fan of all the DLC. Glad I didn't buy this at full price. I wish Firefly would put out a Stronghold game that blows the rest out of the water because I like the genre but this isn't it. Wait for a sale if you really wanna play it otherwise there's plenty of other games out there with incredible value for the money.

This feels like a bad dream.
Just like every other stronghold game post original crusader, this is a sterile 3D mess. The artwork is uninspired and all buildings/troops blend together in a gray blob of polygons. No longer do you have a single key that cleanly flattens all structures and lets you see, instead your only tool is rotating the 3D camera for every time there is a rogue slave with a torch stirring up trouble.
Many features have been cut from the original, like the fear factor system, moat digging, castle decorations and different styles of towers / walls. The entire gameplay has been streamlined to the point where it feels closer to playing Starcraft than a Stronghold game. An absolute devolution no matter how you look at it.

Only good thing is that the lobby system works and it's easy to find a game or host one with friends.

Epic Fail..........Clunky game play, no flow, tried real hard to give this a fair chance despite mixed reviews. Open minded but it's true the old Crusader is far superior to this. Sad I really wanted to like this. To top it off the graphics are not even much better. Don't bother, even on sale! Refunded and reloaded 20 year old Crusaders HD.

Played this a few hours before, a few years back. Didn't have fond memories, but when I saw it was on Steam at 90% off and and it got Mostly Positive recent reviews I decided to try it again. Can't say it improved. Seems like positive reviews say it's worth it on a sale. Maybe, but honestly I don't think so. It's not even worth it at 3 euros.

The voice acting is horrendous, especially compared to the old Stronghold and Stronghold Crusader. The graphics look decent in screenshots, but when animated they don't hold up. The old 2D games have aged better than this, and I'm not exaggerating. Gameplay wise, I could say a few things, but it'd sound like nitpicking. I haven't played enough to form a serious opinion. However, my recommendation is to skip this. Get the old games instead. Play those. They look, sound, and play better, IMHO.

Good nostalgic vibes from times when the RTS genre was alive and well. Made exclusively for those who enjoyed Stronghold Crusader and Stronghold 2 back in the day 'cause for modern players the game may seem heavily outdated in almost every aspect, from graphics to pace and mechanics. So yeah, kiss your wife, wish your kids goodnight and go play some skirmish with AI. Or with your friends, if any of them are still alive to remember how good was Stronghold once.

A shameful sequel to the beloved Strategy Game, Stronghold : Crusader.

While the new variety in units is fun, the overall gameplay has became dull and boring due to the awful economy and map designs. They've butchered the iconic and funny characters certain AI's had with terrible voice actors and terrible cinematics. Like, seriously - the cinematics in this game are worse than in Stronghold Crusader. And ontop of that, they're selling iconic AI's like The Pig as DLC. Absolute disgrace.

There are a lot of details and mechanics that are striped from this game in comparison to the first crusader. it Feels like there is less to do with your castle, less options, less strategy in favor of faster combat. How popularity is managed with less factors involved, less building designs in the game, less details in towns people are some examples. This may not bother a first time player but for anyone who has played any of the other titles you will immediately start thinking of all the scrapped components that made the game feel fuller. Sad face firefly.

Played for 3 hours... Was alright (bought it for £2) - would not pay full price. Was looking forward to play it today. Game is stuck on black screen. Poor game... Really poor. Legends was better than this lol

(8.3 hours.....) Devs, do you balance your games? AI spam Troops like no tomorrow, while I have 500 gold and buildings cost 200 wood to build?! While I have no resources around me?!

This game is not hard its frustrating!

Terrible AI. Gets stuck if formation is wrong! I'm never buying anything from you again. Since SH Crusader none of your games are good. Your new SC game looks like crap. how do you guys not getting it?

Guys, just play Crusader 1 and save yourself £2 lol I can't believe I'm saying this... I would rather drink coffee that tastes terrible than play Crusader 2 for another match! lol

Seriously, the kindest developers ever of the best game of my childhood.
I bought Stronghold Crusader 2 Special Edition to get Stronghold Crusader HD and Extreme. A month later I wanted to get all the DLCs and the ultimate edition was on sale, so I bought it and was only getting an extra copy of Stronghold Crusader 2. I kinda felt bad and wished if Steam would give these duplicate games/DLCs as gifts. However, around 6-8 hours later I found a Steam gift containing Stronghold Crusader HD and Extreme issued to me by the developers. I felt so damn happy.

Thank you so much developers for making such great games and thank you so much for the Steam gift.

I had really great expectation about this game, but it was such a disappointment. Stronghold Crusader 2 is a downgrade if you compare to Stronghold Crusader 1. It's missing features from SC1 like fear factor, moats and little details like drunks in front of inns and woman with their babies. Character voice acting is so bad they sound like robots and their models are fucking scary. Also the game still has a lot of bugs, crashes and it's badly optimized. Some good things I can say about it is that some of the new units are cool, that every lord has its model and the soundtrack is epic.

I've played Stronghold Crusader since I was 8 years old and it was one of my favorite games, aside from BFME. In fact, it was the game that got me into the RTS genre.

Right off the bat, I have to say that this does not feel like Stronghold Crusader 1 felt. Hell, it doesn't even feel like a Stronghold game. The UI feels clunky, the game is slow without the option to change it and there are no camera options like there were in the original. Units can get hidden by the bushes or by buildings, ignore when being attacked and are far too spread out, forcing me to manually push them together, not even the formations help, instead they make them move even slower.

Gameplay seems sluggish and slow, some of the reaction reworks confused me when I started to play even though I went trough the tutorial (WHICH I CANNOT RECOMMEND ENOUGH), units seem fairly weak and take much longer to amass, resources seem to take longer to gain and the gold gain trough taxes is a lot slower than in previous games, forcing me to rely solely on selling iron.

As a stand alone game, it's okay. As a sequel to one of the best early rts games? It's bad.

4/10.

I wanted to enjoy this game so bad; it's disappointing I have to put it down so early. The mechanics added since Stronghold Crusader 1 give SC2 so much apparent potential that I wanted to try out, but the balance is unbelievably broken beyond enjoyable use. Trying the skirmish trail, and even the Rat has me on my back foot, as enemy AI is in no way bound to resource restrictions, and thus builds an entire economy (which it doesn't even need because AI doesn't need resources) and is sending out raids literally within the first minute. The AI independence from resources has the additional effect that, even if you manage to send out a sortie to, say, destroy their iron mines or weapons buildings, they don't slow down and you've just wasted troops. There is absolutely no benefit to try and play strategically to whittle down a stronger opponent, you are forced to resort to mass of arms to win the day, and that's only if the literally infinite surge of enemy troops doesn't stop you from amassing any significant force within an hour.

I also recently noticed that towers are absolutely weak. It used to be the case that archers were pretty vulnerable on the ground, but really shined when you elevated them in their mighty battlements, away from immediate harassment by ground troops. In SC2, however, the supposedly weak Rat's unending horde of low-level troops now comprises spearmen who are olympian-tier javelin throwers, able to reach high enough to insta-kill the entire front of a grand tower's archer garrison, then tuck into the base of the tower where the rear ranks in the tower can't fire on them until their spears recharge for the next round of archer annihilation. That dovetails into another complaint: tower archers/crossbowmen no longer run to the edge of towers to get shots in, like they would in SC 1. A objective loss of functionality from SC 1.

All in all, an improvement over Stronghold 3 because they returned to the grid. Still not worth it because unplayable, balance-wise.

Also everything costs too much wood.

I have spent tons of hours with Stronghold Crusader back in the day and it was an amazing game. This remake is just meh to be honest.

I played it a bit when i purchased and felt something was off. Played it a second time and confirmed that feeling. If its a first time playing it you might enjoy the new remake, but for an old fan this just sucks.
