Reply to Fallout: New Vegas will use Steamworks in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

I'm just trying to figure this out. So civ 5 and Fallout 3, even if I buy them at a store will force me to download and use steam in order to play? And also does Steam get to be the only place to purchase a digital copy if one chooses to not buy a physical copy of the game?

Reply to Blizzard did it again in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

"I was still considering buying Starcraft 2 (aka Starcraft 1 with slightly different units and improved graphics) but now i'm afraid they are going to charge for extra levels, or game modes, or units....." Well they are breaking the game up into 3 full price games. instead of xpacks.

If they take time to make single player worth playing and add a feature to pause the game to issue commands during skirmish maps, I'll get it. if not...........I'll pass.

I'd go with Steven Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen series. I would also rank George RR Martin A Song of Ice and Fire series as well, but who knows if it will ever be completed.

Ahem: "the graphics look like some kids game " Looks like a kids game is not the same as saying it IS a kids game [quote]Will they? Do you think that this graphical style, that clearly took time and effort to create, is just placeholder until they create the actual assets for the game? Do you think that SD would post screenshots if they weren't at least somewhat indicative of what the final product will look like? And if SD does change

[quote who="Alfonse" reply="8" id="1925565"] the graphics look like some kids game for the Wii or gameboy. Oh, I absolutely love this kind of immature response. "Oh, it's not photorealistic, it looks like a cartoon, so it's a kid's game!" Just ignore these people. Keep doing what you're doing.[/quote] That was my first impression. I stand by it. I'm sure you read my whole post that also said that I have faith that the game will be great.

Reply to Galactic Civilizations II: v2.0 is coming... in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

What is that tech brokering tab? I never knew you could trade techs that you have not rescearched. The special planets adjuster looks awesome, and the new shipyard from the menu screen will be great. My 8 yr old will love it. Now I have to keep old game saves from late game play so he can build ships.

[quote] It's sad if TA is last exp. GC2 is a great game and they should continue it. I mean GC3 takes years, and personally, i'm not really interested buy every new game in the series (Don't have GC1, never going to buy/rent etc.), i'd rather see more exp packs. Cheaper, devs can concentrate to smaller amount of content so it's better, and new stuff overall is fun. [/quote] With all the editors coming out, I have a feeling this game will still

Reply to Starcraft: Is it over rated? in Off-Topic GalCiv2 Forums

I loved that game. If they included the feature of being able to pause the game and make commands in pause during a single player game, I would still be playing it to this day. ( I only like to play RTS in SP).

Reply to World of Warcraft has lost it's Soul in WoW GalCiv2 Forums

I played WOW for a year and a half and quit soon after the X-pac. It was fun for a while as a casual player, but then it evolved into timesinks, long instances, rep grinding, etc. It just got boring. Then when the x-pac came out, every player was on the 60+ areas and the game with 8,000,000 subscribers was like a ghost town. They also removed the LFG chat and that eliminated any real way of finding a group(the LFG tool was crap). Not to mention the blood elves looked completely childish and
