People throw away giant crtvs all the fucking time, the fuck is wrong with you? There's no excuse, you're just lazy.

I feel like I'm trapped somewhere around 2008, where if someone asks about X game, I'll tell them it came out only last decade.

A lot of people generally suggest V as a starting point I'd guess. It's pretty popular even outside of bigger fans of the series. It's pretty comfy and it tells pretty much the life story of the MC.

1-3 are better though and honestly the first Dragon Quest is a must if you're into JRPGS. Three's something so simple and crisp about the first three though.

Someone once recommended me V a while back (on 8/vr/, IIRC), and I stuck with it for a little while, but eventually gave up on it. The progression was good, and the grinding not too annoying - functionally, it was fine. But JRPGs feel too damn procedural to me these days.

I could tell that I'd have to off X dudes in order to be let through to the next area; where I'd be rewarded with the task of of offing X x2 dudes before I could progress again. The turns-based combat just puts me to sleep.

I actually kickstarted this, but didn't play much outside of the first beta.

Can you actually play it now? They do work on it still, fairly regular updates over the last several years.

Preformance
It's playable on medium maps with 30-60fps, once you reach 100 enemies and 30~ friendlies it starts chugging on my rig. Big maps however if you have an AMD and it's like mine, not top spec, expect a crash every 5 minutes, the FPS oddly enough is stable, but it crashes, every fucking time. Every time I check the error logs I notice that it's caused by memory leaks in Unity engine 5. Every damn time I check on why it's because it's not using all of my RAM even though I have 8gigs worth of it.

Needless to say it's just as I said in the OP, it needs severe optimization.

GAME MECHANICS

Resource collecting
Barrels filled with crystals, or filling the big ass crystals with crystals speed up the Brickton creation process. There's now orange dust, and iron, which can be used to create explosives, and is now needed for doors and catapults. I don't know if this was in the old versions you played or not, but in the new conquest mode the more crystals you capture, the faster you can produce bricktons.

Troop and unit customization
There is none, probably never will be, and that's okay with me.

Micromanagement and path finding
New movement settings allow you to tell your warriors to attack anything they encounter along the way, after they're done attacking they proceed to the way point. That said setting up defensive positions within a broad area without archers is still a pain. You still can't customize patrol routes which means your men can end up being sneak attacked. Path finding for civillian units is for the most part significantly much better however, every once in a while bricktons choose longer routes, but for the most part it's efficient. The bricktons only get stuck when building complicated structures or when a platform has heavy traffic.

Forgot to mention, they nerfed mining and made it babby tier to use because of two reasons: Firstly, people building huge as fuck holes to prevent enemy hordes from getting into their castles. Secondly, multiplayer vs mode would be absolutely unbalanced.

I remember fucking around with his game I like the god aspect of it and I gave up after not being able to move the gooks up a tower.

"god aspect"

Mind ellaborating. I'm a little new to this vidya I must admit. Honestly I barely started playing it late 2015 when a friend told me it stopped being buggy as shit.

Much to my dismay it's still bug laden, but probably nowhere near as bad as it used to be.
