[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="1" id="3092640"]Imho, the unit designer is what makes this game worth playing. It is, in its way, a unique game mechanic.[/quote] This. Unlike WoM, I believe FE will be able to balance out unit construction so making units is fun, and already is for me. Complexity shouldn't be a huge issue for a TBS game. These are nerd games and are not going to gain a great deal by being less complex as the cost of losing features.

I love Civ V. If I listened to forum nerds, I would have avoided Fallout 3 too... I now completely ignore player reviews and raging forum posters.

Man, I don't get people some times. It's actually making me feel conservative, like I am actually worried about the moral fiber of the world. Oh God...I might start believing in God and watching Fox news soon...

Kind of funny to think Derek is making "troll" post. Oh, ant the different types of darlings, etc is an awesome touch, btw. Makes getting that Darkling town that is connected to a billion lairs far more interesting.

I prefer the AI to cheat like this than to have other advantages like extra gold, more HP and such.

There seems such few places to even put cities, I don't know if I like the idea that if they get razed, we've salted the earth and nothing will ever live there again.

I'm pretty sure "thou shall not steal" is a moral code that goes beyond law, it's something ingrained in the religions and cultures of more than half the world's population and I'm sure well beyond those Abrahamic religions. So I find it perfectly appropriate to call a theft of intellectual information amoral.

[quote who="TorinReborn" reply="23" id="3088266"]What is a thief? Someone that break the law? Is the law same in all countries? Is taking something from others making everyone a thief by law in all cases? Did bankers get prosecuted for being thieves and causing the crisis all around the world? Did G.W. Bush get prosecuted for much worse stuff? I explained my reasoning and all of you may call it what you want. But the hard reality is many people are pirating stuff becaus

That would be neat, but it might be a more difficult game mechanic to implement. Not sure, I have no idea what is difficult to develop and what isn't. On the surface, I wouldn't think that having the computer use boats would be difficult, but many games have shown that it is.

Its a video game. They have the right to charge whatever they want for it. It's not robbery. you have the choice of not buying it. You don't have the right to their games for any reason. Sorry you live in a poorer nation, but making video games isn't charity work. It isn't a resource of life or death.

I'm hoping that the AI fixes will cause the enemy AI factions to kill my units more. Maybe a resource management along with gold expenses would be helpful too? But having the resources be used up will cause our game to go back into the dark ages as many of us like to play super long games.

This is why I said I don't understand why game developers don't hate US. I knowingly throw myself in that category, I rant and rave and cuss up a storm like a mad man. Others are entitled brats and others are thieves. Many gamers do hate women, or at least are very confused by them and feel rejected by them. There is a good reason most devs spend very little time talking to us, we are a

Hate the dry up idea as a game mechanic. Although I do agree with your overall point that scarcity of resources is really the driving force of nations and right now, there is really no need to war against neighbors, as you have all the resources you need. Should probably be more scarce or take more resources to produce things.

[quote who="Emperor_Nero" reply="6" id="3088125"] Quoting Lord Xia, reply 3I don't understand how game developers can't hate us. Vicious, amoral retards. So entitled, and so ignorant of laws. And game developers/publishers do own the intellectual property of their games. How they choose to make them, is their choice, not ours. You can choose to purchase the right to play it, that's the start and end of your rights as a gamer. <br /

I was thinking something more oligarchical, but then I am reminded that the entire game is centered around one powerful dude/dudete that rules.

Elemental war of magic was devolutionary. It tried to do many things old games did in old and/or half-ass ways.
