overall it is an improvement over 3 but there are several aspects that i either miss or find to be complete downgrades, an example of the latter is the diplomacy, specificly the war time diplomacy. you can at this moment not make an demands of the ai when demanding peace, nor are you given the option to give them offers, it is allways a blank demand or offer of truce and you have to wait for the ai to offer or demand stuff from you. i do miss the old sphere of influence system of 3 but the sector system is a nice replacement. the combat is a bit of an improvement, the new class and wepon system makes all the lords seem less like a knight that is more or less specialised in magic. units are now more based on culture rather than race due to you essentially creating one from scratch, but you are not able to write your own backstory for them, which is a massive shame. to oversimplyfy it the game is planetfall but fantasy. if you enjoyed that game you will enjoy this.
