What are the chances that this won't suck horribly?
Don't get me wrong, I played the SHIT out of Stronghold 1 and Crusaders, but I have no faith in the series anymore.
Stronghold 3 goes gold and gets a new trailer
Castle building and total destruction sim, Stronghold 3, has gone gold and will be arriving on PC worldwide on October 25. So man your trebuchets or grab some of that tar! Normal people have those things in their homes, right? If you don't own any of those things just enjoy the video and wait. In Stronghold 3 aspiring Lords will have to construct and maintain a settlement and deftly manage their resources so they can build an impenetrable fortress. Then they can sit back and watch their enemies throw their lives away. Or they might just watch everything they built get destroyed by siege engines. Did you know?

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Wow.. the graphics are.. not up-to-date.

I love the Stronghold series (except legends) and I want to love this one, but I think I will wait until the price drop 3:00 PM on 04.30.2013 Realistic FPS Receiver is now available on SteamReceiver, a first-person shooter with mechanics grounded in reality, is finally available on Steam for super cheap.
