I'm having fun but don't think the game is perfect. I think many things may be improved, and it's logical to see people who like the game asking for these improvements. I see no post on this forum giving the impression that the author has as a definitive opinion "dom3 sucks" (except perhaps one or two Cainehill messages

), just players asking with passion for one or another thing that would make the game better for them.
PS : globally I also think that many of the qualities of this game may become defaults due to bad luck in the early game and give a bad opinion of it. In example the aging system is good but IMO having entire categories of mages starting more than old instead of 1-3 years before the old age limit is not, the event system is good but having a plague in turn 3 without a big misfortune scale is not, etc... After 2-3 tests by an unlucky player this game may appear far worse than it is.
