Hey folks this video didn't want to behave. Whilst editing, Premiere pro decided to run out of memory RIP. Meaning a whole bunch of narration and all my little titles in the corner were pretty messed up. Sorry for the confusion!
Big Ambitions is the exact type of game I was looking for, but I don't think it's refined enough right now. It is SUPER grindy, where you have to keep going back and forth for ages to continually get supplies and equipment for the stores. If there were a way to make it a bit more automated with more "passive" income I'd enjoy it more. The first few hours of the game were just going back and forth spending all day collecting supplies for the stores. Then I had to spend multiple in-game days to get the HQ and warehouse because I also had to manage 3 stores' inventory, set hours, and deal with employees. Even after getting the warehouse set up, I kept having to do stuff, with every extra place I get. It's honestly just a little too much and gets too frustrating.
Also, once you have stuff up and running there's little incentive to prevent me from just sleeping for a week straight and banking cash, but it's fun overall. Some mechanics definitely need tweaking.
Once you set up a supply chain, importing and delivering, you dont really have to do anything. Issue is once you have money there's nothing to do really
Yup then you get right to too automated and don’t really need to do anything. Also at the start i think it should take a biiiiiit longer to get started with your first store and get education. But that’s me. Hopeful about updates. King of Retail still beats it out of the water for me heh
Paradox just wants to copy everything Maxis already did, huh? First City: Skylines is basically just a modern SimCity and now Life By You is just The Sims.
big ambitions looks interesting. I wonder if you can have non end customer business models. for example, could I run my own warehouse? not make anything, just store it for other people who pay me.
I have played a few dozen hours on this one so far. You probably could go the warehouse route(?), but you would have to play the pretty narrow path they give you up front in the game to get enough cash and cash flow together to do it. I am not sure if there are NPC purchases from the warehouse yet either. The only goods I can sell from my warehouse are to my own businesses, so far. Like I said a few dozen hours only. I am honestly finding it a little frustrating and 'grindy' feeling as you are kind of forced to take a pretty narrow path to daily profit, which is essential.
Look into Mad Games Tycoon 2. Early access ended yesterday, I believe. Now at full release. So much fun, and the difficulty spectrum goes from "name your character and win" to having extreme anxiety because you accidentally bought a trash can for 1 room and can't afford to keep your company open.
Love the video. Just a small detail: Big Ambitions is by the guys who made Software Inc. (Hovgaard Games). Not by green heart games who made game dev tycoon.
Aww.. there's no fun stuff like rct, zoo t, pizza tycoon? All seem to be run a life/business... I hope these devs are not missing the point of games and these will still be fun/engaging... Imagine playing a board game with no creative/engaging theme... Big ideas like new York often fall flat. Instead, a curated experience is so much more enjoyable. so many themes yet to be tapped... For current era - garden industry, camp/resort, cruise transport, ecotourism, safari, ranch. Cartoon/satirical-current era - armsdealer, media empire, real estate, secret cult, misinformation tycoon. Fantasy/medieval - schools (Wizards, orcs, army, etc), armoury, pottery, masonry, bakery, horsestead, civic planner, silk road, Japan/Amazonia based. Sci fi - many many many themes. You could even have a for fun body tycoon, where you fight viruses with an efficient immune system (army production) and resources (carb, vitamins - supply line) Vs growth. Modify the actions of your human by producing various neurotransmitters/hormones. Or do a cat. I also miss Lucas arts simcitylike afterlife. A sandbox element that balances rewards for aesthetics and efficiency is a must... Otherwise, it will just play like an idle clicker game... where despite an 'open' setting, there's only 1 or 2 obvious paths to take, and it's just clicking through option boxes, checklists and objectives and waiting for stuff to happen. Zzzzz
It's 2023 and... surprisingly, we don't have enough good 'Proper' management games like Big Ambitions. There is no game out there, that I know of, that lets you build a business, any business you like from scratch and build your self up. We also don't have any new and better developed 'Ship Trading' games, where you build your ship trading empire, build or buy trading ships, accept contracts or make your own and let your ships to distribute out the goods you assign them to.
If you're interested in City Builders (like CS2) you've watched the wrong video 😂 check out this one instead: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pCizFZFeOAI.html
Sorry but you ar wrong about who made big ambitions game the ppl that made Game dev Tycoon is not the ppl that ar making big ambitions it is Hovgaard Games that ar making big ambitions adn they also made a game called Startup Company
KoR is less than BA - in BA you can grow bigger and you have needs - in KoR you dont have needs and you only have a small amount of locations - in BA its more like a open world - etc. Only thing you dont have unlimited options to go in BA so far - cos its EA
Expresso Tycoon is definitely what I am waiting for, too! Tried Big Ambitions, but so far, its really more that, ambitions. Wasn't so much fun and I missed details in setting your place up.
