Re: What the hell is up with Dominions 3???
Word of Mouth will only get you so far, and for the most part with new products your mining your current customer base. My company used word of mouth for the first 15 years, and it did well enough to support my Grandma and Grandpa. When my father took over, the growth of the first year and a half was more then all 15 years combined...and that was only a minimal marketing budget.
It takes me 2-3 previews before I remember a game. I got really hyped about spore when I saw the video demo of it, but it took someone mentioning the article for me to remember I had already seen it. The preview in CGW was one screenshot and a couple paragraphs. IMHO your going to need multiple magazines, with more screenshots (the masses love screenshots) to generate a buzz outside your current fanbase. PS. It took the Vs article in CGW for me to buy Dominions II. And as much as I love it, I can't sell it to any of my friends. |

More important than the province limit is though the unit limit, may i ask how large it is in Dominions 3? Imho the unit limit was the biggest flaw of both former Dominions. If you tell me that Dominions 3 has a unit limit of 1 million units or even higher i am happy and will buy Dominions 3 immediately when it gets released http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif. |
Re: What the hell is up with Dominions 3???
nice that you can see what gems the commander is carrying just by looking at the front of the unit... hopefully this includes magic items - no more endless searching for that missing hammer, I'm guessing http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Hmm, snowflakes falling in the deep sea and still no signs of obstacles on the battlefield. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif The overview screen looks nice and seems much more informative/useful: Scale strengths without mouse hovering, army type overlays, gem pouch displays,.. Neat! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
Two important screenshots are still missing though: The tactical setup and the keyboard shortcut infoscreen... |
