Re: Dominions II - Low Budget and Overpriced? I think not.

At least that is the way it usually works for video/computer games. So that is why people (myself included) bring it up when discussing Dominions 2.

Understandable but I think its usually that low budget means it COULD be low priced. Dom1 was. And we all continually bombarded the devs with requests to bring the game (graphics, music, interface) more in line with the mainstream games.
Dom2 seems to be an effort at moving in that direction. OK some of its not there yet but its the chicken-vs-egg thing. They will need to make some real money BEFORE being able to move this little hobby project into a more central thing in their lives (or hire others). If I remember correctly they both have families and jobs. Picture THAT conversation. "But the players said..."
Anyway Im still happy to have sent in my support for Dominions. And I do feel I got my money worth.
