Reception and Criticism

The reception of the final game of the trilogy, while somewhat positive, is believed to have been derived from the older games in the series. Many considered this game a carbon copy of the previous games, only with the addition of some new factions and a few adjustments to the ones from previous games without adding too much to the game itself.
