Default Forgotten province names

Isn't it annoying how province names get forgotten when you can no longer see them? You can still see the province numbers so it would be possible to at least remember which province is which number but that's a pain... Surely in a future patch the province names could be remembered but possibly grayed out or shown in outline?

Default Re: Forgotten province names

I was thinking the same thing about known/seen magic sites.
Sure, I could write it down, but that would require taking my hand off the mouse...

Yep, this one of my favourite annoyances of Dom2 too! I think quite a few people have complained about that long ago...

Yes I think I was one of them. Hopefully Dom 3 will improve this situation.

The other thing that should be recalled is the enemy preteners' physical forms and magic paths. Now that's something I always do write down.

Yeah, the game should have a "Hall of Infame" for each nation, listing their favoured enemies encountered on the battlefield thus far! So you can look up the 10 worst enemies and the stats/items/paths they had on the last encounter...

...everything that reduces paperwork is good!
