I voted for the TheProgress's quest. That witch sounds hot. (plus I liked the quest)
[quote who="GunslingerBara" reply="5" id="2883913"]I've updated the site. I changed the behavior of the popup so you can scroll down to read the full description.

I still would prefer Galciv2-style random events and mega events instead of quests...
those are awesome...can we assume these are the finalists then?
It's too bad that the top five are voted on by forum members, that just makes this a popularity contest.

There isn't too much anyone can do with only 5000 characters.

@ the OP: If you truly are a fan of Stardock's strategy games, then you already know that they are working very hard to make Elemental better.
How about if blank tiles were useless until your area of influence "healed" the land, then it started producing something...?
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="26" id="2875762"]I am feeling the same way about city placement. It's elusive indeed. The beauty of say Civilization is that every tile in the game potentially has use. In Elemental, a tile is basically generic unless it has a resource on it. [/quote] I'm very glad that you said this, Brad. Is something that may change in Elemental?
What I'd love to see is, instead of a cosmetically diverse and interesting landscape, a strategically diverse and interesting landscape. Something that makes me really have to think about where and why I'm placing a city in a given spot. Rivers would be great, and I miss them, but what effect will they have on gameplay and city placement? Will they provide a trade route, or increased gildar or something like that?
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="9" id="2874426"] Probably never. I still don't like GalCiv in any of those areas.[/quote] So when is the next GalCiv update? ;)
If you don't already find it fun, I doubt any future update will suddenly change your mind. [quote quoting="post"] I have read that Version 1.19 is due out on 1/27/11 and that this version is the beta to Version 1.2. So, in my mind Version 1.2 deals with stability and Bug Fixes as the change Log for 1.19 clearly points too. My Question is what Version number should I be looking for to add the Polish, Features, Tweaks whatever to make this game fun? Plea
[quote quoting="post"] So I finished the Campaign today, and I am shocked. Campaigns are supposed to introduce the game gradually. But all I got from the game was a little over 4 hours. This is pathetic. Usually a campaign to a game like this is supposed to open up all the functions and abilities the game has to offer. I would expect more and more spells to be availably as I progressed, all the items/troops. What was I given? 4 crappy spells, exper
[quote who="Wizaerd" reply="74" id="2866407"]I still dont quite get why it has to be a new game... I dont want to have to choose to play either EWoM or FE, I want to play EWoM with FE content, as an actual expansion. I dont care if it's free or not, that isn't the point.

No, I understand how frustrating bugs can be. Luckily, I haven't experienced any. My problem is these folks that feel that because they don't like Civ V, that Jon owes them an apology. He doesn't. He made the best game he could, and I'm sure he's proud of his work. The idea that he should apologize for Civ V is preposterous... [quote who="FutileEmotion" reply="213" id="2868706"] Quoting charon2112, reply 212Um
Um yeah, you realize that many, many people actually like Civ V (myself definitely included). Jon doesn't owe anybody anything and he certainly doesn't have anything to "answer" for. [quote who="enoeraew37" reply="201" id="2868363"] Quoting Nesrie, reply 196 I am curious. How would you have him "answer" for what happened?

Sounds awesome! I have a question, will these new areas and elements like the Fissure and Red Springs and such be randomized in sandbox game maps, or are they only part of a campaign?

Is that "unannounced project" going to be GalCiv3?
[quote who="Domicron" reply="46" id="2861751"]There are demonstrable gameplay issues (I'm not even counting the bugs).[/quote] This is true, but some people have fun with the game in spite of these issues. There's no big issue that's a deal breaker for me.
