Seems like there's a lot of negativity in this thread. Sure, some folks have a tough time with things and take it out on other people. Does that make them worse people? Well maybe, but ain't nobody perfect. As for anonymity, it's also the boon of the internet. It allows people to make and do things which will be judged on their own merits, not on a person's reputation, whether that be positive or negative.

I have a 360 but it seems like there's not much point in consoles any more. Every game worth playing on consoles is released on PC too. And considering there's already lots of PCs with better hardware than the new consoles are rumored to have, that'll probably continue to be the case.

If your bunny slippers don't fit, removing them is a good option - you could even exchange them for another size. Similarly, if you think bunny slippers don't fit the game, well, you seem to have missed a number of silly events, but you can cut them out of the code pretty easily I reckon, I don't think the item format is changing.

[quote who="AgaresOaks" reply="9" id="3394045"]As someone who's put a lot of time into EU4 and enjoyed it, the gameplay can be quite slow, even on the maximum speed. There is a LOT of watching paint dry for some countries.[/quote]Yeah, try playing a Native American state. Some initial conquest, then like 12 hours of mucking about on another screen and occasionally spending mana on tech or ideas as you can, and then suddenly your nation is destroyed by Europeans in like an hour.<

These cities are only winning because the really nice places are too small to get surveyed. Thank god I'm a country boy. [e digicons]B)[/e]

[quote who="smeagolheart" reply="31" id="3392615"] How can designers think such an an ugly UI in (nearly) 2014 is good enough?[/quote]Presumably they're attempting to sell their game on gameplay, not aesthetics. It's still a better UI than Dwarf Fortress after all, and few people contest that that's a good game, at least for its niche.

Is that their actual logo? I know it doesn't really impact gameplay or anything but you'd think they could do better than that. It looks like it could be the logo for a (non-chain) bar or hotel.

Yeah, Paradox games are usually buggy at release. Unless you're a super-fan you should usually wait for like a year to get them. Naturally I've been playing EU4 since the day it came out. :) As for it progressing slowly, that's a feature, not a bug. The only game aspect which I think is all that bad is the leader mana, which is stretched way too far. Idea groups and tech do the same thing, there's no reason from a game design perspective why you should be choosing betw

Well, I enjoyed Enemy Unknown and will be getting this. It's more stuff and some of it looks real fun, while others are nice options if nothing else. But at that price point I don't think I'll be getting it until it goes on sale.

Honestly, it seems like a fine new iteration and I would buy it on it's own merits, even if the price point is a bit high. However I've heard too many bad things about their DRM, with people having to buy the game three times because they get locked out of it erroneously detected as pirates, and the company ignoring emails about it. As much as I admire the design goals of the game and how they go about it, I can't justify giving money to a company like that.

[quote who="Fenix34" reply="53" id="3387190"]Poor TA, not getting the love it deserves. It was the first PC game I ever played, and that pretty much started me on the path of strategy gaming. +1 for Pacov's suggestion.[/quote]The franchise branding has devalued substantially due to spiritual successors Supreme Commander and now Planetary Annihilation. Being able to slap the TA name on something isn't worth that much.

Regarding the original question, Legendary heroes is a standalone expansion. Most of the information from Fallen Enchantress should still be relevant.

We still have quite a lot of people who fail to graduate high school in my state. Failing is far from removed from education. As to how that effects games, I don't really know. But the US does tend to consume games where death doesn't set you back too much.

Yeah, it was clearly aiming to feel like a certain kind of science fiction that stopped being popular some decades ago. It's good if you like that sort of thing, but not that good for most folks.

[quote who="onomastikon" reply="5" id="3361379"] Seems the fourth time is the charm. Seems to be working now, apparently downloading. Can I DL this again when I get a new computer next month when I get back to Germany, or do I need to save the download and somehow transfer it to the new computer? Thank you[/quote]You can download as many times as you like on as many computers as you like, all you need is to log into your steam account and it's all set up. That's one of the main

Studying, can't you tell? I wish the new FE wouldn't have come out until after my finals were over on Thursday.

Pardon the double-post.

No point in DRM. If people want to pirate, they will. DRM will waste your time and money, and the most if might do is inconvenience paying customers. [quote who="ZombiesRus5" reply="15" id="3360922"] You may as well post a link to download your game with a Donate button based on most of these comments.[/quote]Nah, there's people who don't know how to pirate, or who just take the most convenient option, or who otherwise would be okay with paying but won't unless promp

I wouldn't consider crafting to be a short list item. (My pet goal is still sieges, buildings, and elevation change in tactical battles). But if Crafting were added... Like in Age of Wonders (Shadow Magic especially) but not broken. Good luck with that.

To me, it felt like it was sort of missing the point in a lot of places. Of course there was little things the added action and the increased emphasis on the homeland compared to the gold, but the cut songs hurt it (although the songs they kept were great) and I felt that the changed scenes were pretty much all for the worse. The entrance into Rivendell in particular made no real sense to me. Why have the dwarves showing such great animosity to the elves? Why did the elves show animosity

Maybe I just have higher standards, but I don't think it's particularly great. There's certainly a lot of horrible game sites out there that make this look great by comparison, but really, all that happens here is reasonable discussion. I don't think that should be considered some lofty achievement to be proud of so much as a matter of course. Most forms of discourse achieve this after all. I think a better question would be "why are so many other gaming sites so horrid?".
