Hello everyone and welcome to the second Dev Diary for Age of Wonders 4: Eldritch Realms! If you'd like to hop right in to the Eldritch Sovereign section, skip ahead to 0:56, if you'd like to skip ahead to the new Tomes of Magic, you can find that at 15:08, and if you'd like to go skip the dev diary, you can find the dev stream breakdown starting at 26:36. This Diary was quite the tease, showing off just enough to get the gears turning but leaving a lot yet unknown, but feel free to share your thoughts on the Sovereign, the Tomes, or the pre-recorded stream -- thanks for watching! You can find the dev diary here: store.steampowered.com/news/app/1669000/view/4173227802691355228?l=english You can watch the dev stream here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-B93-kd30xwE.htmlsi=RkQhrqi_beRqk4c4 29:00 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Honestly, not only is this dlc awesome, but I think the mods will go crazy too like a Tome of Seasons that's like a buffed tome of Cycles or a Tome of Biomancy wish gives you all the flesh creatures that's all about stacking unstable buffs on units like Clan Moulder for skaven and the Spires from Conquest. And I can't even imagine the hype if they drop a second roadmap
Forgotten Tome Of Blessings(Order), could be picked, if you roleplay as a God, also Eldritch Severing has Membrane wings, so could try to make Ariel, the Queen in the Woods. Remember that you don't need to make Ruler to look and behave like Eldritch Horror, also Eldritch Horror's followers can have order in their ranks, Cult of the Lamb as example.
"Remember that you don't need to make Ruler to look and behave like Eldritch Horror" Yes! Biblically accurate angel going ham on Good Alignment and Feudal vassalage.
There needs to be a mod that’ll increase the size of the Abyss island sections and let us colonize it. I want my summon/magic origin buffer Eldritch Soveriegn to just move into the Abyss and be the herald of the end
I'm pretty excited for this dlc to come out. I'm hoping it doesn't break any of the current mods I use. But I have a feeling that if they do get broken they will get fixed quicky. I'm so excited! I bet Blint is too.
In AoW 3 someone made a Invasions Event Mod that added a bunch of Independent enemy Invasion events to the cosmic happenings pool. I am 100 percent expecting to see that in AoW 4's modding scene now once eldritch realms drops
16:00 Barbarians don't have a single Polearm Unit, Reavers have 1,5 Tier Polearm, but, Constrictor can pull enemies in range of guns and immobilize, so perfect fit, Primal have Tier 3, but it's tier 3, so won't see those in a while, also Retaliating Growth would work great on polearms, chargers, or Ideally on Hero with Heavy hitting weapon, just put hero in the middle of enemies and don't forget to buff your Champion.
At comments in RU-vid Short, that involved Girl's reaction Sphinx from Dragon's Dogma 2, Girl's reaction was described as Scaroused or Hornyfied. Scaroused and Hornyfied, perfectly fit to describe reaction about Constrictor, also when Constrictor was shown on stream, I remember seeing WOULD in chat.
If anyone is looking for ideas for a campaign , try to make a: Happy day in hell (inspired by Hazbin hotel). You play as chaos/dark demons , but you try to be good alignment with high morale, in a desolate burning wasteland.
Materium definitely drew the short stick in ER, but the Materium Affinity is supposedly to be antithetical to all things magical so it kind of makes sense. I'm still waiting for the day that Materium gets a Major Transformation. 🤞
