Froggy, you and the team should be really proud of what you've done. This is incredible and it oozes atmosphere and personal style. :D

This is really awesome looking. lol Really awesome! I love how I'm seeing so much detail put into the game without the game focusing solely on graphical presentation.

I hadn't thought about it much, but I preordered the game too, and I'm almost a hundred percent sure Elemental is going to rock. I guess I do feel safe in trusting Stardock's dedication to quality. :D

True that. Psychologists can go take a hike - they have lots of fallacious ideas that are better left out of the mainstream.

Eh. I was kind of hoping he *didn't* come back. His music for Age of Wonders was pretty great, but Galactic Civilizations pretty much just droned on in the background endlessly. Even his battle music wasn't particularly memorable. Warcraft 3 and Supreme Commander both have incredible soundtracks - GalCiv, not so much. Maybe he'll prove me wrong this time, though. I haven't heard Elemental's music yet. Galciv's tension/wartime music was good though

That game looks incredible in scope!

Blizzard would *never* sell the rights to Warcraft. They only own a few IPs, they're all their own, and they're all wildly popular. As JaJ said, the going rate for the license would be more than all the money in the world, most likely. Just look at how much revenue it's capable of producing.

As I said, the only real downside to the services is the requirement that they be active for you to play your games. Impulse doesn't have to be actually - you download and the game is yours. You can even burn it onto a CD and play it you'd like, you bought it. Steam is DRM, plain and simple, but it's a no mess approach to the whole situation, you know? Some companies choose to use it instead of other, cumbersome CD-based approaches, or Ubisoft's wonderful methods.&nb

You mean the "Not too bland Champions"?[/quote] Now now, let's read the thread.

[quote who="cephalo" reply="26" id="2621796"]What do I get from Steam?[/quote] Hmm let's see. Lots of games use Steam instead of other invasive types of DRM (Saints Row 2 for instance), you don't have to dig out your CD, constant absurdly great deals on typically expensive video games, auto updates, by your request, for games you frequently play, eliminating the need to question whether or not your game is up to date and if you can join a friend's game, and the ability to purcha
