Default Re: Dom-III discussion at GalCiv

I'm interested in that the GalCiv ppl seem to be mostly complaining about price / value / worth. I have to say that I don't really fall into the 'niche' gamer box... I don't think. I play big name titles, (even if i hat EA) and I fork out a fair bit of money for games. I bought Dom2 about a year ago, though only after playing the demo for quite some time. I found the biggest obstacle was ordering online, not the price. Seriously, I don't really think that Dominions isn't polished, and don't really see why it should be cheaper than any other game. Computer game price is really wacked IMHO. Dom3 should be cheaper because Illwinter is smaller? Big name games should be expensive even though most of them REALLY REALLY suck? Galciv may be an interesting game, I've never played it. Supposedly doesn't the combat system really stink? I've been told that all the ships on one side fire at the same target, and that it just goes back and forth, and you can screw with AI targeting by playing with firepower/size/hp ratios... though that might not be true. still, from what they were saying, I think a lot of them might be interested if the price were only a little lower, so its not too bad. I won't mention what i think should happen to the guy who advocated a $20 price tag though...
