[quote who="Raven X" reply="9" id="2692090"]I don't really think it's our place to judge. They were the worlds greatest warriors of their time so they must have been doing something right.[/quote]You can only judge another culture based on their own values. Such relativity, altough necessary, makes impossible to pass (fair) judgement from a historic point of view. Athens' women were little more than objects. Spartan women could have lands and walk freely in the streets (betwee

[quote who="shadowtongue" reply="19" id="2691581"]Since when is GC2 considered a classic by anyone?[/quote]Since a few years ago. [quote who="Austinvn" reply="20" id="2691643"]very glad that Elemental is not even remotely close to becoming GC 2 -with-magic.[/quote]Fixed. Gal Civ 3 should have more in common with Elemental (feature-wise) than with Gal Civ 2 (in the old times Frogboy mentioned Heroes as a possible idea).

[quote quoting="post"] What the hell? [/quote]Supposed to prevent some spam.

The Dark Empire of "The History of the Runestaff" by Michael Moorcock? One of my favourite books and really liked those orders based on animals. Melnibone sounds interesting too but not sure if there is enough info to create a whole and detailed faction? (at least I haven't read enough beyond Elric' chronicles and those from The Eternal Champion)

[quote who="KillzEmAllGod" reply="1" id="2691361"]strange .... i would not expect such a thing to come from elemental [/quote]Why not? Digimon seemed more interesting though. Hoping for an elightemed moddre to make a mod that takes Elemental to be the new RPGMaker. My second mod must be an RPG...

[quote who="kryo" reply="20" id="2690790"] so will i have to buy the game again if i want it in Spanish? We have no plans for any official European language translations. [/quote] Any official Asian and/or African language translations? Esperanto maybe? :P [quote who="Raven X" reply="21" id="2691171"]They can't change the names of any characters that are featured or mentioned in the books. The books have already went to press.

[quote who="DeCypher00" reply="17" id="2690354"]Somewhere along the line, these people stopped being gamers and suddenly became white knights of the fair digital distribution league.[/quote]I'd like to know who you think you are to define who is a gamer and who isn't based on how they decide to defend their rights as customer. (or more precisely, the rights of their money and their time versus the capitalist industry only interested in milking you of as much money as possible)

[quote who="ddd888" reply="38" id="2689921"]well they could release at 00.00 monday in the same exact moment when its both next week but still this week[/quote]Suuuuuure.

Maybe i's a typo and it's really Master Ver j a. Not quite the same but safer. [quote who="Tormy-" reply="9" id="2689919"]Eh, I am wondering, that what is the meaning of this word in Italian. -> Giovanni Verga [/quote] Google translator offers "rooster" as meaning for Verga in italian (well, "rod" too). Theatre Verga

[quote quoting="post"]it would be best that you are aware of the joke ahead of time.[/quote]At least one dev already knew about it some weeks ago. Name still the same. It'll help the word of mouth in spanish speaking countries? XD

[quote quoting="post"] does working a 12 hour day just to get a beta out so the community can test it [/quote]Damn! They are rushing the game! :P Stardock is amazing!!! But being a fanboy my opinion shouldn't be considered at face value.

[quote who="seanw3" reply="40" id="2687145"]I don't want a Facebook mod. I hope we can agree on that. [/quote]Farmville Mod? :P Steam Mod. Google Mod. Apple Mod. Microsoft Mod.

[quote quoting="post"] Game on, Stardock. [/quote]Hey Linux, WIndows has many video games! Game on, Linux! [e digicons]:rolleyes:[/e] Nothing wrong about begging for free games, mind you.

I think it was ChongLi who was planning (or at least very interested) in the making of a Master of Magic clone (back in the day?). Surely he isn't the only one.

[quote quoting="post"]I find that it breaks my immersion to have new inns and quest points appear out of thin air auto-magically from time to time.[/quote]You find no problem with Dungeons/Crypts/Temples/Quest_Locations_In_General popping out of thin air when you get a Quest? Or should all those locations be spawned also at World Spawn? There are some reasons why Spontaneous Generation is good for Inns and Quests Locations.

I'd vote for we getting it after release, be it as free update or as part of an expansion pack. It's a too nice feature to ignore. But considering all the features that they need to tweak for release, I understand that many good ideaswill have to wait for another chance.

[quote who="Bellack" reply="79" id="2683425"]What is 'SoaSE?'[/quote] Sins of a Solar Empire

[quote who="Reianor3" reply="18" id="2683242"]Keep you shi realism for real life people, games are made for something else. [/quote]Why must units die when they reach 0 HP? Why do the citizens need food? Why...?[e digicons]:P[/e]

Will diplomacy ever have something in the lines of SoaSE with "enemies" giving you missions and offering a reward for its achievement? Not at the same level than in SoaSE where you had them constantly, but more from a time to time (and according to circumstances).

[quote who="ddd888" reply="64" id="2683249"] Quoting Wintersong, reply 61 Just because some of you have such a big e-peen that need other real people to beat them with it, again with this poor thinking? its not at all about epeen its about REAL CHALLENGE ai not cheating cant offer one players offer a lot <

[quote who="VR_IronMana" reply="13" id="2683209"] Imagine having to fight some monsters while changing a diaper [/quote] Procipinee uses Diaper Strike on Sand Golem. Sand Golem's morale broken. Sand Golem scapes. Procipinee wins +3 Exp. Baby wins +3 Exp. Baby levels up.

[quote who="Luckmann" reply="394" id="2683195"] But meh, it's not like you'll keep an avatar longer than 48 hours. [/quote]It has been a week with this? :P And I don't mind avatar clones and/or offshoots. The nick above the avatar is still "unique".

[quote who="Luckmann" reply="390" id="2682928"]Edit II: Stole this right off Wintersong to see how long it takes for him to notice. Also because I got inspired. And the fact that I'm a thief. Don't hog it unless Wintersong says it's up for grabs. Or.. you know.. if you're a thief.[/quote] XD I feel honored that I/it could inspire someone. And why would I be against people using it?[e digicons]:inlove:[/e]

Just because some of you have such a big e-peen that need other real people to beat them with it, doesn't mean that there isn't some other people that is more than happy (and being challenged) with(by) the (good) AI (done by Frogboy). Plus MP (usually) implies (as much as possible) flat factions in the name of balance. :P
