Thought you were done with this title, was in the middle of a Campaign too when the update message came up. Thanks a lot, it's appreciated. ---

Hehe. Let's hope the past don't repeat itself in the future in this case. If people can go in there and have fun, the job is done. Anarchy Online was a mix of innovative ideas, and bad execution. But for all it is worth, having one MMO behind them, Funcom certainly should have learned a thing or two. And some people are dead tired of Elves and Dwarfs. ;-) ---

Not a big fan of EVE design philosophies, but the skill system is great and original. I guess you need to bite your... fingers in the future, before typing something you'll regret. It's sometimes hard to be nice, and even harder to be nice twice. ;-) ---

[quote]Though I haven't played it, It didn't look very good on a few youtube movies I saw of it. It was very repetitive, but there was one plus: Huge Clawed Killer Gorilla!..................that was taken down relatively simply:([/quote] Haha. They made a truly cheesy and cheap TV Series of Conan. ( The star speaks with a heavy German accent, in the finest media traditions.) In one of the episodes he was going for some giant monster, and after a lot of time building up to that moment, o

Edix said it best. ;-) ---

Congratulations, and well done. ---

It's probably best to get some sleep, because tomorrow will not see much of that. ;-) ---

Comparably speaking, the delay is microscopic, the changes are astronomical, and it's all done with the speed of light. :-)

It's much more fun trying out the different races now, and play out their strengths and/or weaknesses. With an editor only the universe will be the limit I suppose. But the original races truly hold their own candle now. This is what I call an expansion. :-) ---

The announcement obviously need some more polish. They can't just release an incomplete announcement, and patch it later. ;-) ---

Bah. Now the weekend will be terribly slow in the passing. Hey, that's not so bad... ;-)

To TheRealWarpstorm. I looked up Dwarf Fortress after reading your post, and have to say that it's absolutely brilliant. I used most of the night learning the basics, and it was a blast. Thank you. ;-) ---

Arrrr!!!! Weekend saved. ---

Yes it's true, game play has gone out of the window, graphics is all that matters. RTS games may not automatically represent a logical step forward, look at the state of PC gaming as we speak, in a time when Real Time Strategy is dominant. Oh there are many other factors at play, but PC gaming has declined so badly, new titles are either converted from consoles, or cloned from other semi-successful titles. There are a few exceptions, like faint lights in the Dark Ages of PC gaming. ;-)

Ah. Looks good. Well, the text telling you that you are not logged in, when attempting to reply while not logged in, was Dark Blue on a Black Background. That's not very easy to read. ( Using Firefox BTW. ) Not very important, but that's all I found... :-p ---

These time frames will hardly move us far away from the Holocene, which is the latest Geological Period. Carry on the good work, and no rush. We know that rushing is bad, for the most part. And good to hear that the next project is turn based as well. ---

Jolly Yuletide to all! ---

Bah, can't they have these polls before you get completely entangled in Christmas preparations. Voted correctly Sir. Yes Sir! :-) ---

Well done, and thanks for keeping turn based game play where it belongs. On the top! Huzzah! :-D ---

You can't win them all. All the time. But I think the momentum and sheer weight of GC II will outlast some of the titles on that list, no matter what is voted. ---

Voted. Turn based game play, for maximum enjoyment and comfort, with very little twitchy behavior depending on a sugar rush. :-) ---

TA will be like dropping a Doom Star upon the unsuspecting world. Muahaha-ha! But it's always good to see some recognition, especially when it's genuinely deserved. Huzza for good old fashioned game play. Great concepts never go out of fashion, no matter what the mind benders try to pull. :-) ---

Hail Stardock, the new Masters of Orion. :-) ---

The central tower of the capital is somewhat... oversized, cartoon style. I agree there. But on the other hand, big towers prove fascinating somehow. Maybe it is the view, maybe it is the feeling of a superior position. Maybe it is something Freud would have commented on, with links to biological aspects of the human body. I have no answers, and no strong objections, different styles would be cool, but not exactly critical. I am pretty sure there is enough to do otherwise. Maybe three

I can't vote currently. But later, later, alligator. ---
