AND BLAND, !!!!!!!11.

Game deserves credit. It is not for everyone, but to know games like this are still being made only screws me over for more future gaming endeavours. It can be pretty good fun whether you just feel like stomping people, forging a powerful empire, or even just playing QUEST GENERATOR (the faction!). Where there are flaws there are mighty game gods striking at the game relentlessly with their mighty hammers, every strike of the keyboard forging another wrinkle out of the game.

Well deserved overall score!

Your guess is as good as mine.  We've sent out over 100 review copies of FE so far.

Our non-games are getting lots of coverage (we're in USA Today -- today in fact) but for some reason we're having a lot of difficulties getting the game media to cover it.  IGN says their isn't enough interest in FE to justify a review right now given how busy they are with the Christmas releases -- even though FE is in the top 10  most popular games on Gamespot - which is in the process of reviewing it). 

Are they serious over there at IGN? They don't have the resources to review this game? That's a pretty sad state of affairs.

Ah, I have a bit of a knack at this so I'll translate for you:

"IGN says Stardock aren't spending enough money advertising with them to to justify a review of FE given how much money other companies are spending advertising for the Christmas releases"

What makes you think just because it's in the top 10 most popular games on Gamespot that they set the standard on reviewing of games? Gamespot is becoming another one of those biased for kids only nobody reads type of review sites. Very immature people over there anymore.

On the other hand Metacritic did get their 4th REAL professional review in and FE ends up at 78 which is around what I predicted overall after coming out of beta. A solid C+ isn't bad for a turn based game. Take a look at Slitherines/Matrixgames Commander The Great War the user base is slamming it pretty good.

Sucks about the games, but your other works getting publicised is great news (it was literally news). These programs look great, if I ever had to seriously use my computer for work I'd definitely grab a few. They make everything seem so much neater. And adding the start menu back allows me to upgrade to windows 8 in the future.

Dave Ramsey? Check that link Mr. Frog...

Oh, no !  Some miscreant named Dave Ramsey  hijacked  the IGN Review site's URL !        

Just kidding ... and AlLanMandragoran, in Reply #18, just above, has got the correct URL for the review.  I think Frogboy owes you some Karma, friend ...

If you check IGN, you'll see that they have a number of reviews over time of games by small indie developers who haven't advertised with them.  On the other hand, you'll see very few TBS games reviewed.  It's a genre that takes a lot of time to review reasonably well, and most young reviewers who work for next to nothing and have no background to speak of in gaming don't care for TBS titles.  I'm not suggesting these are the only reasons IGN and the other big gaming sites haven't yet reviewed FE, but I think they may factor into the decision.
