The Settlers 7: Individualization

Yes its not very well known in the US. But in Germany its a very old and famous series.didnt really play it though. but this one seems to have very nice graphics...i think ill take a look at it

Why is Gordon Brown talking to me about Settlers?

Narrator fail: This is a video game not a PBS special.

I actually like this kind of game (though I'm not really into Settlers per se) but I'm not so sure about this marketing... it sounds like narrator just got off recording  the training video for new KFC employees.

So anybodey know where Settlers 3-6 are?
I played Settlers 2 ALOT and never heard about a sequal to that.

I always liked the settlers games I had settlers 2 way back. Never got in to it though. I might give this a go.

They're up to Settlers 7 already? Last one I played was Settlers IV, always had a soft spot for it, even though it was pretty kack compared to the bigger ones like AoE.

I can't believe there's seven of these. Crazy.

" What on earth is Settlers? "

Ugh what a crappy video.  So they have a map editor (that looks pretty limited) and a leaderboard? Are you serious?  How is this news or purchase worthy?
 
I loved the first 2 Settlers but stopped after the recycled 3 and 4.   This looks equally uninspired.  I was hoping for a rejuvenation of the series but this video shows absolutely no compelling gameplay.   
 
And it looks like these guys really don't understand the use case for Social Networking.  What are the multi-player features? How does other players' actions affect my game beyond a stupid goddamn number?  Is the limit of their 'social networking' chatting with other Settlers 7 owners?

I haven't even heard of Settlers 1 through 6.

Man, they still make these?

This is the first game that may make me look past the shitty ubi-DRM and give in. The demo was confusing as hell to me, but I somehow had fun and saw the potential still.

Promoting silly facebook features doesnt abode well for the game

Too bad it's broken with the Ubi DRM.

"yep yep yep yep..." that is the Settlers 1! 
 
Connecting two mice to your amiga and playing on dual-screen kicked ass.  Haven't really gotten into any of the other settlers though, doesn't really appeal to me anymore.

Diggin' the art style.

Graphically I'm getting kind of a Fable vibe off of this. That's a good thing, it seems enjoyable to look at. Whats up with the announcer at the beggining, sounds like an elementary school biology video? Otherwise this has me pretty interested, never heard of Bruce Shelly or Setllers but I'll keep an eye out.
 
EDIT: But it's by UBISOFT?? pfft haha never purchasing anything from them until they drop those crappy play protection laws.

siedler 3 was my first pc game... i played the crap out of it

Man, Ubisoft and their DRM can go fuck themselves.

Hope this isn't as shitty as the previous games. Settlers 1 and 2 were great fun, then it all went straight to hell.

Listen to me.....1!!! Listen to my voice!!!!

Never heard of it, they're up to seven?! haha

Wow, this is the first settlers since the second one that I'm interested in.
 
Too bad that Ubisoft f*cks it up with it's crappy "play" protection.
 
Port it to the console, Ubisoft, where I don't have to deal with your crappy copy protection and I'll buy it.

" What on earth is Settlers? "

WTF?! BRUCE effin-Legend SHELLEY works on Settlers now? Wow! Finally, after 10 years (?)  I am slightly interested in playing this.

What on earth is Settlers?

Did they employ Operation Flashpoint's radio chatter to narrate this video?
 
Welcome to.... THE NEW....  THE SETTLERS.... 7..... at.... BUSH!!!..... 5 o'clock!

I remember playing the German version of one of these games on the PC years and years ago.  Dude's family was German.  All I remember about the game itself is how many resources it had (dozens) and all the ways you could convert them (build a bakery to turn flour/water into bread).

The new The Settlers Seven.... awesome.
 
How that guy constantly says The Settlers Seven makes it feel mechanic.

Man, Setllers has gone WAY downhill. It was awesome back in the good old days.

I haven't even played The Settlers 1. 

Wtf is the Settlers and how have there been 6 that I have never heard of lol.

Game could be good but my god was that an awful awful video.

The new The Settlers 7, ay?!

Looking forward to more Settlers.. 

But good god these videos are dire.  They're on the level of those horrible educational videos I always had to watch at school, and they make the game look and sound as unappealing as possible.

woot any new vid is good lol
i take that back it sounds a glorified face book game
