[quote who="jamotide" reply="8" id="2769386"]I cannot agree. The past week I have spent most of my days playing Master of Orion 2, it is still amazing fun, and while playing it I feel so engrossed in its world and not more than 10 years ago. It is the same fun. And I have only discovered Master of Magic last year, it is a great game, and those are not memories. Before that I played 1869 for a week, a 20 year old amiga game I played as a 12 year old. I had more fun with it than with

you guys wanna poll this to death .. there are about three active polls with this one :-( Nothing worthwhile is to be gained by going over the same ground again.... patches have been and will be forthcoming!

[quote quoting="post"] This is not going to be pretty, and maybe not that profitable in the short-term. I am going to sound harsh, but I do want this to succeed, as I see the potential. This is not intended as a slam on you guys- I hopee you know what I post here well enough, that you know this isn't just me begging or slagging. Right now: the perception of this game is that it's unplayable, and that buying a Stardock game isn't worth it until at least a yea

[quote who="surlybob" reply="4" id="2740383"]It's a sad day when games are proclaimed unfocused mish-mashes because they don't play or function like every other game in the genre. When a game that introduced zero innovation to the genre (SC2) gets praised and a game that is trying to shake up the genre (4X) is criticized for lack of "focus", how will game developers react? More innovation or more cookie-cutter crap? Game innovation is like stand up comedy, you gotta take risks and sometimes y

But patches can, it's nt like they have done any of those right? Right? And it's not like they've fixed even half of the bugs, right? Right? Until SD actually fixes the game engine, it remains busted. It bog

[quote who="midnighthike" reply="16" id="2742337"] Quoting Baleurion, reply 10 Oh how mature (and original), bashing another game in order to validate your love for this game. When will people grow up and realize you can actually like more than 1 game at a time? In what way is SC2 a carbon copy? Its the ONLY true rts game on the market right now, everything else is a hybrid-genre failed experiment. And to that, it's pretty much very similar to what Elemental is with the m
