I am a sucker for the Anno Series and damn if I am not going to enjoy the heck out of the Roman setting. It'll certainly be an interesting ride.

On one hand, this sounds amazing and I've wanted a real sequel to Caesar 3 for uh, decades, and this totally could manage that.

On the other, ubisoft.

I'm cautiosly optimistic. On the one hand the ubisoft mainz team ( formerly Related Designs ) have always delivered wrt anno games. On the other corporate Ubi and their tendency to enshittify everything they touch.

As a fan of futuristic annos I'm also not big on the theme, but they did outdo themselves with 1800, so there's hope.

Yeah, the Anno games have been good, but I'm firmly in the wait-for-reviews camp for any Ubisoft games just because they've certainly made some fuckups in the recent past.

Hopeful that Ubisoft management doesn't do anything that's too egregious.

I'm firmly in the wait for reviews and price drop of any new game. But anno 1800 was an amazing game, so I do have high hopes for this.
