What do you guys think of base building type of games? As in, the kind where you play as a single character or a team, and the goal of the game, or at least an important element of the game, is your "base" -- either you start out with a full compound or lot, or you establish one yourself.
Elements such as creating new buildings, upgrading buildings, a stronghold or safe zone where you can store things, fix things, upgrade things, and so forth are important parts of it.
I think the concept is really appealing, and all though I haven't come across a lot of games with these elements, they seem to be making their way into games more and more often.
Ie, I'd really like a game where you either start out with a compound, or outline a compound in an open world (Like a Just Cause 2 type of open world.), and then you venture out into the open world to gather resources to build new buildings, items, or upgrade things, etc. as well as getting more followers and people to help with the building, maintaining of the buildings (Such as farms, or whatever.), protecting the base (Manning "towers", etc.), etc.
Does anyone know of any games like this that exist or are in development?
