Majesty 2 is one of those games that will always have a special nostalgic place for me. I remember playing it back when PC games were still mostly physical copies, on CDs, before everything became digital and neatly stored in a library. What made this game stand out to me was always its unique idea: you are the ruler of a fantasy kingdom, but you don’t directly control your heroes like in a normal RTS. Instead, they have their own will, their own priorities, and sometimes their own complete lack of common sense. You build the kingdom, place rewards, and basically “bribe” your heroes with gold until they finally decide to do what you wanted them to do in the first place. And honestly, that concept is still brilliant. I also really love the world of Ardania. The setting has charm, personality, humor, and that classic fantasy feeling that makes the game memorable even after so many years. It’s not just about building structures and fighting monsters — it feels like managing a chaotic little kingdom full of greedy, brave, stupid, and sometimes surprisingly heroic adventurers. That being said, the game definitely shows its age now. On newer PCs, some parts of the experience feel broken or less balanced than they used to. The AI can behave strangely, enemy spawns can feel way too chaotic, and because of modern CPU acceleration and the way old games sometimes behave on newer systems, enemies may spawn faster or path much better than intended. Because of that, some missions can feel less like a fair RTS challenge and more like the game is throwing everything at you at once. And sadly, since the game is old and no longer receiving updates, these issues are probably here to stay. Even with all of that, I still can’t hate Majesty 2. The idea is too unique, the nostalgia is too strong, and Ardania still has a charm that many modern games don’t manage to capture. I would honestly love to see this series revived one day, even if the chances are small and the project feels like it was abandoned to dust. For me, Majesty 2 remains a flawed but special strategy game — one that may be rough today, but still carries the spirit of a very unique era of PC gaming.
This is an oldie, but GREAT GAME, it's challenging with interesting lore and tons of comedy built in. If you loved OG RTS like Warcraft this will scratch some spots for you. Although this is not an true RTS it is also part SIM, and that leads to some interesting twists to RTS mechanics that make it a lot less robotic to play. The cutscene graphics show their age, but the other graphics are plenty fine for game play and appealing. The AI is BRUTAL , and the learning curve is steep, not complex but steep. Keep in mind this game is from back in the day when games used to come with manuals that explained them, there is a tutorial but not as comprehensive as it probably should be. Take the time to click on all the different buildings and units and read the info, there is tons of funny little jokes built into all of it. You can tell a lot of love was poured in from the developers. The background talk from the NPCs can also be quite hilarious.
One of the best games of it's time. It is incredible as a game, truly a masterpiece. Let me give you a rundown on the game: You can build buildings anywhere on the whole map, just make sure monsters do not break them before they are built by your peaseants; There are tax collectors who can hide in guard towers and collect taxes from all peaseant huts, guilds; Recruit heroes to aid you in battle! Build the guilds of heroes, like clerics, warriors, and rangers as a small amount of them, to obliterate undead, eradicate evil, and destroy rebellions to Your rule; Features a longish campaign, with dlcs to make in total a pretty long game; Build defences, like dwarf cannons, guard towers, and magic towers ( Guard towers spawn in guards to hold off enemies. ) ; and your palace. If you lose it, you lose the mission. Your palace allows you to build, collect tax, and it spawns Royal Guards. I hope this helps if you are deciding on the game. With all this in mind, also the fact I have never seen a single bug in my five years of playing this ( I have played multiple pc's ) I think it is a GREAT game!
Recommended but you need to do this before playing: 1. install DLC fix patch 2. Install 4gb memory patch (otherwise the game will crash every 5-10minutes) 3. OPTIONALLY some fan add-on patches like "collection balancing" or "Ruse mod" 4. OPTIONALLY set your FPS to 30 (like many old games game speed is tied to FPS)
