Re: Elemental/Dom 3 comparison on the Elemental forums
I agree with you about the sound, actually. I think it could be overall improved, and I wish there was more music variety included with the game (I like what we get, I just wish we had more, atleast more from the same artists). But as you say, it's hardly a major issue.
The graphics, atleast as far as sprites are concerned, are a moot point. If they were more advanced, there would be more problems, and less mod material. The maps are already of top quality, and I always liked the 3-D battlefields. I'd kill for better skins, though, and I wish more people who know how to do that, would make some good ones for the game.
I'd really like to have more role-playing aspects in the game, especially for the SP, and I think the AI we do have, could atleast be better harnessed, and address issues like wasting gems (never allow it to use gems, unless told to), casting useless or detrimental spells (set up a personalizeable list of spells that it should never cast, unless told to), and atleast building smart Pretenders, and even maybe some basic, generic SCs (forge amulets of magic resistance, forge shields if no shields are present, forge rings of regeneration if SC has 30+ Hp). Things that could be programmed *around* the AI, rather than asking it to make it's own decisions.
