Very excited to see minor factions go in, as I think this is what I'll spend my time modding the most.

I can understand if very poor people pirate games. The rest can go fuck themselves.

I tried entering resilin into the tech tree search box but it didn't show me anything. Then, after googling the resource I found out I needed to build a paddock from a wiki. That phrase, too, showed up nothing at all in the in-game search box.

Game is a mess. My biggest annoyance is that I can't easily find out what the world resources are for, or how to exploit them. What do I do with resilin, or biomass, or titanium? Civ5 tech tree was streamlined - you unlocked a resource, then immediately after you got buildings for it. BE tech tree is a jungle - I unlock a resource in one part of the tree, and find buildings for it in another direction. I guess in a year or two, after people have studied this jungle tech tree, it will make

No, I don't believe adding a unit editor would make the game better. Instead I'd like to see built units progress through level-ups, like they do in Civ5.

Past the last stretch goal with less than an hour to go! Can't wait for this...

It's OK to hate anything dysfunctional, grasping or straight up inadequate. For example, you'll find little love for Windows 8 here.

It's called a trade-off. You might go for the choice that reduces doom counter by 1, and gain a handful of mana points. Or you might choose the new elite unit and increase the doom counter by 1. You may be interested in the elite unit because it will help you with the game more than the mana points would, and so you think that the doom counter going up isn't so bad.

[quote who="Tattyhat" reply="4" id="3501427"] Okay, so let me get this right. If I get myself a shiny sword or find treasure the DC goes up? [/quote] Some quests feature choices that increase the doom counter.

This is like Microsoft trying to compete in mobile gaming.

Whatever, gramps. [e digicons]:D[/e]

Yeah, that sounds like it came out of nowhere. But I like how it sounds.

"Surviving is not relevant."

Very cool idea for mechanics. And kind of a reverse Sorcerer King plot. The idea itself might make a cool Sorcerer King mod. Edit: Signed up for 10$.

[quote who="matrix_v" reply="9" id="3500525"] I'm getting the idea that GG will slowly die off having accomplished nothing, and the gaming world will happily keep turning. [/quote] Yup. It seems to be a big surprise to many that their reviewers are corrupted though. And that's probably the only good thing to come from gamersgate - an increased awareness that the world is shit. /sulk

In FE:LH building a new Forge of the Overlord is a prerequisite for casting the Spell of Making.

Spells that summon a monster lair, a demon gate, a breach in the ground, whatever. Monsters come forth and attack the SK and maybe the player too. Ex: Call of the Serpent King. An ancient temple is unearthed, spewing forth deadly serpents until destroyed. Ex: The Crystal Forest. A piece of forest is transformed into deadly, living shardlike entities. Ex: The Bound Dragon. A dragon is summoned and bound to protect a piece of land. The dragon will attack near

It straight up needs to have something to do with quests. Even if it costs 500 mana, I'm just going to be hoarding mana the entire game until I get it. Cast it twice/thrice, get another 100 turns. Even if it literally destroys a shard I'm still going to use it, because another 10 turns with less mana income still means I get more income than if doomsday arrived. At the very edge of doomsday, there is no price that isn't too high - sacrifice a city, lose half my spells...

So, thanks to Snowden and others we now have a rough understanding of how deep the rot goes. Every US company of significance can be squeezed, and has embedded employees. US companies are brought into line not only through corruption and disloyalty, but using official bribes of cash and technology insight. Threats of going public are met with injunctions from the secret courts. All this is true. What we're seeing now is the next step in the machinery. Everybody knows that the thre

I posted about this earlier in another thread. The purpose of this "debate" is to give the illusion that your data is safe with the big giants (Google/Apple). It's not. It's a PR move that was to be expected after the backlash against US tech industry.

Kickstarter cancelled

[quote who="Shackalakala" reply="1" id="3499673"] I hope Stardock goes in the direct of Endless Legend with their different regions of terrain. I love the visually distinct ice regions in the north and south, along with varied deserts, plains, forest regions, etc. I can't think of another 4x game that has handled terrain in such a beautiful manner. [/quote] Amen to that.

That's how it's been before, with other elemental games. The XML is included in its entirety in the save game. If you can decode the save game you may be able to make progress, but noone has so far.

FE:LH I have 56 hours played. Endless Legend 96.

My radiators wouldn't fit inside of that. A tower you can easily fit a 420 and a 280 front/top. The bend on the front slots makes it look like you couldn't even fit a single 280 in there. And yet it takes up the same floorspace as a tower would. In fact, there are only 4 140mm fan locations, none of which blow directly into the gpus. How the hell are you going to run 3 strong cards without watercooling and such limited air supply? They're using 2 of the 140mm slots just to
