Honestly, I wanted to like the og one, but I'm so burnt out on games using the same three pantheons when there's a genuine trove of them out there.

I hope it does well and maybe they can do more than the same three, especially considering the one dlc it got wasn't what I'd call good either, but at least it was different.

Based on that can I recommend Dominions to you? It's like civ and battle simulator had a baby, but the civilizations are based around fictionalizations of actual lore from a wide variety of cultures. And you get to create a god to lead them in each game.

Dominions 6 is the newest one, but 5 is just as good, cheaper and has a more sprawling mod scene.

Fair warning though, it's an incredibly complex game and definitely has a learning curve.
