[quote who="cephalo" reply="46" id="2527233"]Quoting KellenDunk, reply 44 I disagree. These Sovereigns are not just immortal emperors, they have the very rare power to make land habitable. It is through this power that people are able to survive. Allowing your non-channeler, son to take over your empire without the ability to imbue the land with his essence would ensure the demise of all the people who live there. The people need to swear fealty to a Soverei

[quote who="cephalo" reply="39" id="2527045"] The way this dynasty mechanic is presented, it seems to stand on shaky fictional ground. I think it will feel very 'gamey', and not feel like a story unfolding. [/quote] I disagree. These Sovereigns are not just immortal emperors, they have the very rare power to make land habitable.

Nobody has explained why we need people to do these things.

[quote]But Nazi corporate ties extended well beyond Germany. It is an extraordinarily little known fact that in 1933 a cabal of Wall Street financiers and industrialists plotted an armed coup against President Roosevelt and the US Constitutional form of government. The coup planners - all of them deeply hostile to socialism - were enthusiastic supporters of German national socialism and Italian fascism. Details of the little publicised Congressional report on the failed coup may be read in 10

[quote who="psychoak" reply="80" id="2522377"] This whole thread is based on a faulty premise. Obama is proposing a funding INCREASE, but simply cannot allocate enough resources needed for Bush's Lunar Program. Considering Bush underfunded it to begin with, and we need something to replace the space shuttle fleet so that we aren't bumming rides off from Russia on the Soyuz forever, I would say putting MEN on the moon is a silly thing to do. I'd rather send some mac

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="1139" id="2521116"] The only thing I do find interesting is the emotional investment its proponents have in it. I consider evolution pretty well proven but I certainly don't get angry or annoyed if someone believes in intelligent design or creationism or whatever. Whatever floats their boat.

Brad, your list is far better than most of the legit magazine lists I've seen. They tend to leave out games that changed things like Bejewelled and Guitar Hero. And simply put games they liked in there, like Deus Ex...

[quote who="goodgimp" reply="9" id="2520877"]The ipad (I cringe every time I type that, a truly horrid name), it seems to me, has woefully inadequate hardware to run a game like Elemental. Nevermind the fact that it's running the iPhone OS... [/quote] It's a larger version of iPod touch.

In the art style section you failed to mention Alphonse Mucha. The idea that they were going for an art style inspired by his work is a big part of what drew me in.

[quote who="cephalo" reply="15" id="2511938"]I can't wait to see how they resolve the conflict between an unaging ruler and a hereditory, monarchial system of government. To me they seem paradoxical. If you arent' expecting to die for the next 500 years, certainly you can wait to have children right? The age gap alone would make governance impossible.
