Dominions II was not developed with any special graphics card in mind and does not use any non-standard OpenGL commands. So I would blame ATI for not producing decent OpenGL drivers. But I guess they don't care much whether Dominions runs well or not  .

Given the nature of Dom2, it isn't a high priority for most players either. But I wouldn't place ALL the blame on ATI. Sure, their OpenGL sucks. Nevertheless, I get better FPS on other
OpenGL games like Il2 Sturmovik and Doom 3. (and I'm speaking full details at max. res here). So there definately are ways to produce a decent OpenGL result even on ATI cards. But then, those games had a larger budget than Dom2 I guess.
Don't take this as a criticism, no one plays Dom2 for the flashy graphics and stunning action. Although the battles are very entertaining to watch.
