Goodbye 2014, welcome 2015! 2014 has been a good year for Populous: The Beginning, which saw its 16th birthday. Hundreds of new players have joined, some players came back, and activity overall has grown. Even though Populous is an old video game, several new players are joining every day. This is due to Populous innovating a new game style, which has so far never been correctly imitated. Populous has essential qualities which are inexistant in any other strategy game. Additionally, Populous is one of the most critically acclaimed games of all time and played a key role in the history of the real-time strategy genre.
Populous, in 2014, had several updates and improvements. For instance, version 2.0 of the Populous online lobby was released, with a completely new interface and several improvements. It was finally done so that nearly everyone could host multiplayer games with no setup required at all.
From here at PopTB.com, we call on all old players to come back, and all new players to play, for the first time, this masterpiece of video gaming. Note that Populous can now be automatically installed and set up for online play with a click. With the Populous installer, you go from nothing to playing the game on-line within two minutes.
Without further ado:
Happy new year!
Happy new year!!
