GalCivIII Campaign

What will it be like?

Posted on Saturday, January 18, 2014

Question to the devs and/or general speculation thread (though the latter seems somewhat limited):

What will the Galactic Civilizations III campaign be like upon full release?

I'm not looking for specifics here. I just want to know if it will be as difficult as the GalCivII campaign? I remember sitting down to it, getting about 5 missions in and being utterly unable to achieve victory in any way! Even on Cakewalk!!! I can play against Tough AIs on an immense galaxy and win yet the campaign was too difficult for me to beat! I don't get it.
Second question: Will there be any cutscenes or the standard GalCivII fare (either works for me really, the pictures were nice and I liked reading the text that was written)? On that note, will the game itself feature cutscenes for finding anomalies or when a race gets killed off as well? Those were a nice touch and I would miss those incredibly if they wouldn't be in the final game.

Third and unrelated: Will there be achievements? If SoaSE is anything to go by, I assume yes. I am also going WAY out on a limb here, but I'm guessing that the GalCivIII campaign will be a BIT more IMMERSIVE (let's say) than the SoaSE campaign.

 

(P.S. - Still no word on those Drengin plushies, eh? I'm a patient man. I can wait. :3)
