One of the things I think would work really well with Endless Legends region system is the endgame map time-lapse sequence that is used in the old Sid Meiers Alpha Centauri.



- While obviously not something huge or necessary I think it would be a nice touch.

- It would help explain how the game went for other empires besides the users.

- I always find myself wondering early/midgame, before the map is revealed, what exactly happens when a player is destroyed early on.

- I also think it would explain better then graphs. ie: Pink grew large really quickly but become overextended and was fighting on three different fronts, which is why they did so poorly.





You can see what im talking about starting at-

I agree. I'm always disappointed in 4X games that don't offer this because it is so cool to look at after!

Yes, I have thought the same thing. Do love a good outro at the end of a many hours 4x game. Thinking civ iv hayday. Don't know what the coding resource allocation would be on this, however. If substantial, my two cents would be to prioritize AI development over this feature. Though, as I say, I'd love to see it some day. The little story you get at the end of your investment is quite cool. Knowing Amplitude, they would bring something unique to the feature.
