I haven't had much time to play the game, but one ting I have noticed is the free-agent enemy champions. I don't really find it a lot of fun to walk around murdering them. They're not really a challenge, and it feels like killing them so easily is taking away from my own fun, like I should let them live and be hired, so I can get a real fight out of them later. I know someone has suggested they have an army with them if they are attacked by the opposite&nbsp

Some one should invent some kind of wooden device that floats upon the water that a person could use to traverse the water and obtain the treasure.

Have this problem too.

That sounds pretty shitty and needs to be addressed. If that's a feature, and not a bug, its a crappy one.

Please keep any additions secret until you give it to us, because I hate to see all the arguments over whether or not it's a good feature, blah, blah, blah, before anyone actually has a chance to play around with it.

Forget about the emails, make sure to check the download page.

[quote who="mqpiffle" reply="45" id="3066389"]It's up to the developers to implement a sound game design. Does the proportion of people who are saving and reloading in a strategy game have any bearing on whether the game is a market success or failure? Do people save and load chess games because they made a bad move?[/quote] When I play the computer I am hitting the redo button on my moves all the time... Am I guilty of hitting the reset? &

Yay! I have beta access now! I should probably wait and download it at home, they might get mad if I download it to a gov computer.

What a nightmare to freedom and democracy.

Do we really want heroes to become truly crippled? Are there enough of them for this to work?

[quote who="Mtrixis" reply="6" id="3066127"] Quoting Lord Xia, reply 5That seems like a fairly powerful ability. I like it though. It makes sense for a person with a longer weapon to be able to engage an attacker first. Kind of the whole point of the weapon design. I don't think tying it to bog standard 'level 1 spear' would be a good idea, but as a Hero trait, a Magic tree spear ability, looted magic items, certain monsters possessing it i

I guess when I think of using the term "nation" I am thinking more of the government/rule and their policy and actions. And in history, you have to compare the actions fo the nation to its people and neighbors to others of the period. Can't use presentist thinking. Also, I hate to go all Godwin, but Nazi Germany was pretty evil. They were cartoon evil. Their level of evil makes possible the use of over the top

Can you clarify what exactly your "first strike" trait would do?

I don't know, I think there should be some black and white. Not all the factions, but some. The fight between good and evil is the basis of fantasy. Those great Joseph Campbell archtypes of mythology and lore. Also, there are nations in real life that have certainly fallen in the black, and some that have fallen into the white. You can always take a part of a society and claim because of that small part it's evil, or it's good. And

Doesn't matter if it was installed through impulse, what matters if it it was purchased prior to November 1st. as long as they have a record of that sale you are good. I guess my point was: if I used my retail box sera

I feel the same way, when I hear "attack" bonus in a game, I think "to hit" or something along those lines, not damage.

Wow, this is fantastic. This is perfect for people with Autism, from what I remember from my schooling, it fits with exactly how they process information. Good job.

Oh my!

I'm never losing my hair and I still have all 32 teeth. Never broken a bone, never had an ear or tooth ache, nor major disease or illness. Assholes like me live forever!

I like Steam.

No invite yet! Getting worried! [e digicons]8C[/e]

I'm level 47 but haven't had much time to play in the last few weeks, and the fiance is off this weekend too, so I won't be able to sit around and play video games like I love to. [e digicons]X([/e]
