@games Games to replace Total War: Warhammer 3 with?

There have been rumors/controversies about the next #totalwar Warhammer 3 DLC, while I don’t personally believe them, it’s true that we’re reaching the lifecycle end of this franchise, I’m thinking of a contingency plan, I’ve played this series since 2017, and to replace with something else is going to take a while.

Still, here are some of my ideas, and I would like to hear others from the community

    I can’t contribute to this specifically, but I love this topic and would love to see something like an indie alternatives community. personally I’m still hooked on civ vi and can’t find anything that scratches the itch (paradox and sega aren’t good alternatives to 2k)

    Age of Wonders 4 has been entertaining me alongside TWW3 recently. It’s a 4X turn based strategy game with dark fantasy elements from Triumph Studios and published by Paradox.

    It has some pretty good customization elements and I’ve been enjoying playing the different types of empire combos. There’s also an Lovecraftian eldritch horror DLC coming out this month.

        I absolutely love disciples 2 and would highly recommend it. The unit progression trees give it a lot of replayability. Even though the third instalment gets worse reviews it’s also pretty good and has some nice graphics and a more dynamic battlefield. Maybe consider its competition as well (heroes of might and magic and eador). There is a far east themed 4x game called oriental empires that also has interesting army mechanics. Humankind and millennia sound like titles that should at least be mentioned even if you already pointed out that you don’t like paradox.

    @games

    I’m open to suggestions, both games new and old, as long as they stick to the dark fantasy setting

    Also, if this post looks weird to you, that’s because I’m experimenting posting from Mastodon to Lemmy

    EDIT: So, it turns out that if you post more than 1 image on Mastodon, lemmy will only show the 1st one, TIL

    The other ideas are Disciples 2, Solium Infernum, and Age of Wonders 4
