Yeah, I'll keep all this in mind when I get the game. To be honest, I don't even know the precise reason research costs were doubled. I don't know if the intent was to delay magic in the early game (in that case, it worked perfectly) or to make it harder to get to the powerful spells in general (in that case, more would need to be done). I'm kind of making a mathematical observation here - and I may draw a graph to show it - that going from high level spell to higher level spell will not be any different than it was in dom2. In fact, I'd predict the nations that will be hit the hardest from the research changes will actually be the same ones that suffered in Dom2 from not having the reseach potential of the other nations. Again, a graph would show that. Of course, if it's all intentional, it's all good.
Anyway, I don't want to go OT any more; I'm becoming rude. I'd start a new thread, but it's probably not worth it.

Hm all in all research is slower in Dom3. Not much slower than in Dom2 though in the lategame. But unlike in Dom2 in Dom3 magic diversity is harder to achieve with the new random system.
Most indy mages got nerfed a lot too. They are more valuable than before for diversifying your magic, but they are weaker than in Dom2. In this game i am very lucky to have found the loremasters.
But even with them it is harder than in Dom2 to diversify. Some booster items have higher requirements to forge, and then there is the old age, so eventually many of my loremasters and necros will die.
