Re: Dominions review up at Gamespot
I think what irritates me about these reviews...especially the ign review....is not so much that they gave it a 65/100 or whatever....I understand that Dominions 2 is not for the average gamer. I mean, even the hardcore gamers, some of them, don't like it.
What irritates me though, is this: Strategy Game A is reviewed as not having enough of this, not having enough of that. Not enough strategy. Not enough options, ect, ect, ect.....
Then, Strategy Game B (short for Dominions 2) is reviewed at having too much of this. Too much of that. Too much strategy. Too many options, ect ect ect....
I mean, what is it? Do we want more options? Or do we not want more options?
Again, i know and fully understand that Dominions 2 is not for everyone. Not everyone is able to grasp it, or look beyond the "bad and poorly done" graphics. But, to me, this game has what every other strategy game does not have. It has SO much going on, and it all makes sense once you look into and think about what is going on. This game has so many options, i think that the reviewers really don't know what to do with them all. They seem to be overwhelmed by what goes on, and what can go on.
I enjoy the game, despite the reviews it gets. In fact, I am amazed at all that happens during a game....
Not sure what the purpose of my post is now that I have typed it....but, oh well...
