@ Illauna who said I wasn't enjoying it? to quote "I have had (still having) fun with AOW3". Both games are fantasy but they are quite different games. LH just appeals to me more, by a long shot. AOW3 tactical side could be improved heaps. Allow us to put down the army, or at least rearrange. Allow the player to use m

I have had (still having) fun with AOW3 but it is nothing like FE. I have put 400+ hours into the various flavours of elemental, I will be lucky to clock up 50 on AOW3. Having said that I see AOW3 more like a successor to the original Warlords. Conquer city's or convince independents to join, build army and smash the opponent. I hardly ever bother with the tactical gameplay, usually selecting auto-result. The recent big patch did help but I am hoping they can improve the game more in the

@ Heavenfall that was a bit uncalled for. I don't see how that is shitty and I certainly don't require your unsolicited opinion and personal attack.Very childish. I still stick to my comments that the game is a mess as far as the UI goes. The graphics are shoddy and all in all the game is not intuitive.

Ok, after reading about how excited people are about endless dungeon I decided to watch someone else play on youtube. I have just had my first proper go - I am pleased to say - I agree it is quite cool. I still don't like the graphics ;)

Well it is quite possibly me but I found Dungeon of the Endless confusing and completely uninteresting to play. As far as I could work out you don't actually have full control over the characters. The graphics are so bad that you can't work out what is what. This retro-crap is starting to get annoying. For years we had to endure shitty graphics because there was no alternative, now it is hip to go back to blocky graphics? Bizarre. I have tried endless legend a f

I think it is a big ask to go from zero programming experience to writing a RTS. An easier approach would be to use a game engine like Construct 2 which makes many complicated programming requirements very simple - e.g., path algorithms and shooting etc. It even includes a basic 2d RTS sample in the package - there is a free version of C2 to have a look at. https://www.scirra.com/

the tech tree is dull - it is always the same and inevitably you make the same or at least similar choices in every game.

Downloading now, 10 minutes to go. And to top it off I am sick with stomach bug, no really. I feel like shit but I will soldier on...

I was like, Meh! How could this be any good? Ok I am convinced that looks friggen awesome. I love finding out about these kickstarter projects - so much creativity without the spectre of corporate bureaucracy in your face.

More 4x games. - full stop

I miss the dynasty aspect. However, to be honest, I have difficulty differentiating the three games. I see them all as one game that has gone though some upgrades. The facts that visually they are hard to distinguish doesn't help and many of the differences in game play are reasonable subtle or at least not glaring. I would love to see more games like that but then I would expect them to be significantly different from what has come before. So I vote yes I wou

Gnomoria and Shadowrun Returns on steam sale at the moment - 50% discount

choice - I have passed onto some friends - maybe now I can convince them :)

@Jafo, Australia is the lucky country. Lucky if you don't get eaten by sharks, crocs, snakes, spiders, stung by jellyfish, burned in massive bush fires, drowned in apocalyptic floods, eaten by biblical swarms of locusts. We have none of that in New Zealand :) Sorry, can't resist hassling big ugly brother Australia.

I am enjoying kronos a lot. Well worth the $15

I can't work out how you are supposed to know that you can apply a discount. Anyone?

and on Halloween too - great timing (yes I know it is tomorrow for you state side individuals)

Nice that sounds like a DLC worth buying.

The learning curve was a bit steeper than expected because certain game mechanics were not obvious to me initially. I am playing the campaign and on to my third scenario and I am enjoying the gameplay (approx 5-6 hours of play). The story is reasonably well done and there is a bit of to-and-thro within a single scenario which keeps it exciting. It brings the "perfect general" game play to modern computers. For the price it has been well worth it so far and I am lo

I love my samsung galaxy s3 - I don't want to discuss the boring functional dumb phones I had before that.

What I particularly like is that they did not use a cute cartoony look. I cannot stand the cartoon civ 4 characters and most ipad games have opted for the too cute look as ell. blah! I rather miss the old days where units were hadn drawn for 3d isometric games and they looked gritty and real.
