Screenshots, Developer Chats and Developer Diaries increase the popularity and demand for any game under construction. Developers and/or publishers preventing such marketing causes more harm to their sales then good.
Well, not necessarily. Dominions III offers no state of the art graphics, so you really can't convince the audience with screenshots.
I believe that most dom players (myself included) aren't especially interested in the game's gfx.
For me, the point of screenshots is that they hint at new directions the game is taking and in general opens a place for interesting discussions.
WraithLord is correct... how pretty the graphics look is not that important. The screenshots could tell us about possible new battlefields, obstacles on the battlefield, new forgeable items, map and province improvements, new battle orders, etc., .
This type of information would increase the buzz talk about Dominions in the gaming community. Currently the only thing we can tell fellow gamers is 'release date spring_2006'. Not much information to buzz interest in other forums.
