Well, the Campaign was certainly fun. I won't buy a map pack, but I will buy a continuation of the campaign!

At the begging of WoM there were tons and tons of chaps to recruit, it was so much fun. Monsters also spawned in Fog of War and got stronger the longer they were alive equaling more cash and exp for killing them. I used to wall off a large area of the map and just send my heroes around to level them up. There were some problems back then, like you had to cast this empower spell on your heroes so they could use their special abilities which permanently reduced your sovereign's mana pool, b

Well, that seems like a bad design. That' means a 4 mat 3 food 3 essence square is not as good as a 2 mat 3 food 3 essence if that square is close to a forest or river.

One question. Do you have to put your town right next to a forest or river? I don't seem to be able to build a lumber yard or dock if they come into the zone of my city after the fact, even if I have built improvements right up to the forest of the river.

Please make subtitles for the chapter videos. I have to turn my sound up way too loud to hear it clearly. I am getting old...

I found sword called Sword of Wrath, it's a purple sword with various effects, one of them is +5HP for kills. This effect does not appear to work. I haven't looked to see if the +30% cumulative damage per subsequent attack works or not.

Putting the tax rate to 0% to start is a good suggestion to keep unrest down when you won't be making any money anyway. Just don't do what I recently did and forget to bump it up to at least low when you are ready, my income went from -1.7 from my armies only to +63 [e digicons]:|[/e] I think I waited too long.

Why poop on Warlock? Even if you only play through a few campaigns the game is $20.00. I played it for longer than I played Torchlight and I never felt ripped off by Torchlight. 20 + hours of entertainment for $20.00 is pretty good. Check out the price of your local prostitutes for a comparison.

Syberia 1 & 2. I mean, I love a lot of the games listed, but how those two have been missed I don't know. Also, Tex Murphy, Broken Sword, hell, just go to GoG, click adventure, sort by user rating and run down the list all the way to 4 star. Easy.

Well, I understand people complaining about nostalgia and rose tinted glasses, but here's the thing, you obviously enjoyed the game enough to remember it and even more than that for it to become a high water mark in turn based strategy in your mind. MoM may not be a technical masterpiece, it may have a ton of issues and it may be crap by today's standards, but man was it fun at the time, and that's what games are for. So, I don't sit here and compare the technical or A

[quote who="TorinReborn" reply="26" id="3270951"] Quoting Lord Xia, reply 19Also, consider how different things are after FE's release than they were at WoMs release. Massive difference. The forums back then were exploding with legitimate complaints, vile rants, asking for refunds, and it didn't go away for months. What do we have with FE, a pretty general recognition that the game is good, a few minor bugs here and there being reported, and s

I think the main problem Civ 5 has is that it proceeded Civ 4, which by the end was...I don't know how to describe it, amazing. It's like Gal Civ 3, why would you make it? You certainly don't need to Gal Civ 2 has everything you'd ever want in that kind of game. You can't beat a 100/100. Was Civ 5 a bad game? No, I think it was probably a good game, but when I still have 4 installed, well, why would I play a good game when I have an amazing game to play instead.</p

Me too, I have found several locked ones, level 5, 7 and 9, but as much as I move around at the start of the game I've found only one for my faction. In my latest game I killed a level 1 of the opposite faction. This makes the guy who can recruit from both sides pretty useless. It also means that Relias' free hero recruitment is almost as useless.

Outposts need roads to them somehow, otherwise the present system is fine. There are few spots on a map that allow for city placement. Edit. Okay lol, one of the few techs I've never managed to research, thanks, it just became more useful.

Maybe after FE comes out the team can push WOM over the proverbial rise to greatness. I don't think it is really that far away. I like that I no longer have to imbue a hero in order for them to use their special ability. However, I don't like how there are basically no heroes wandering around any more. Taking away Janusk was fine, but everyone? I used to vigorously pursue heroes but now there are fewer people out there. Anyway, the game is good, not great, but it has h

Well, I've played quite a bit under 1.2 by this point. I have noted that the game is way more likely to have a crash, either through memory loss or something else, if you reload at any time. The game is more fun, I can play for quite a while without crashing, I am trying a large map so we'll see how it goes when I get a bit more of it exposed. I only have 4 gigs of RAM right now as the other 4 are being rma'ed to patriot. A couple things. I have a few mods, so I do
