Reply to WHAT is Fallen Enchantress? You tell us in Elemental Dev Journals Stardock Forums

I'd call it Elemental II: The Fallen. Fallen Enchantress sounds odd.

Reply to Digital Pre-order in War of Magic Stardock Forums

I'm only a "fanboy" to my wallet. I have zero loyalty to Steam or Impulse. Whomever has the best value at the time I want to make a purchase gets my money. Steam gets my $$$ way more often than Impulse solely based on that value judgement. Impulse and Steam have little to no decernable differences in their ability to download software to my computer. Impulse better get cloud support soon however because that feature is amazing.

The amount of Steam hate in this forum is only matched by the amount of Steam ignorance. [e digicons]:-"[/e]

Reply to Elemental Releases on August 24? in War of Magic Stardock Forums

If the next gen consoles allow for complete digital distribution of standard games, brick and mortar hegemony is going to die . 6 month gap for shelf space seems extremely antiquated. I haven't purchased a game in person, in a store since WoW :BC. Apparently m any people are still doing so.

August vs. February seems like a huge cap.

Reply to Elemental Impressions on IGN in War of Magic Stardock Forums

AoW2 was great. I'm going to reinstall that if I can find my disks. Between Steam and Impulse, I'm going to miss my scavenger hunts. [e digicons]:'([/e]

Steam has some amazing deals, it's true. I just picked up Empire:TW, Medieval II: TW + expansion, and Rome:TW + expansion all for $20. I've been using it since day one. Valve is a company that responses to consumer feedback. Offline mode has improved since launch. Steam, Impulse and services like them are the future of the industry. The amount of impulse buys (lol pun intended) is amazing.

You can toggle off auto-update in Steam.

As an American, I have no idea how to fix your being an "Australia."

Well that needs some balancing.

Reply to Demigod: Video Status Report [Day 7] in Demigod Journals Demigod Forums

Well I'm sending $40 your way. The negative reviews were kinda scary but I haven't been let down by a Stardock game yet. It's nice to see a publisher care so much.

Reply to Gamespot Reviews in Demigod Demigod Forums

Afraid Gamespot is right. Movies are reviewed based on what the customer can see now, not on the Director's Cut. Games are the same way. I'll decide if Demigod is worth my Best Buy Gift card after the demo. Haven't missed a Stardock retail level game yet. Lost the old GalCiv key when I changed emails, game thinks I'm a pirate but it still works. [e digicons];P[/e]

Reply to Expelled: Is Intelligent Design a Science? in Everything Else Sins Forums

Random genetic mutations are a key mechanism in natural and sexual selection, the engines behind evolution. Sometimes I wish I could travel back to the Council of Nicaea and ask them to forget the whole Genesis thing while they were busy editing and debating the "word of God."

Reply to First Tutorial Doesn't Seem to be Working in Technical Sins Forums

My tutorial didn't work the first time but it did on the second try. Kinda strange. I didn't change any settings.

Reply to 5$ more for the digital version compare to the retail version? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[link="http://www.window.state.tx.us/taxinfo/sales/faq_use.html#use3"]Texas Use Tax[/link] Dang. This explains why more online retailers are taxing me. Well, I guess the free ride technically ended years ago... Now I'm just down to buying online because I'm impatient. :LOL:

Reply to 5$ more for the digital version compare to the retail version? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I went with the digital download because I'm impatient and don't want to pay sales tax. In the past year, I've started to get taxed(Texas 8.25%) from more online retailers. :SNIFF!: Steam and Stardock getting my business now.
