The Future of the World?
Reading the dominions nations guide, and noting how nations change across the ages, dose anyone else get the fealing that the world is in trouble?
The sea's are now a realm of madness and void beasts. Both Cits & Agartha are dieing realms that rely on necromancy. Ermor is, well Ermor. Ulm has practically collapsed, Humans are takeing over from once mighty nations like Abysia, Vanheim and Jotunheim. One wonders what happens next?
If anyone has a good prediction (prefrably with evidence) I'm dieing to hear it.

Re: The Future of the World?
Ah, it's all part of the general trend of mythology and the second law of thermodynamics. Mankind makes nature and religion less relevant, things were fancier in the Olde Dayes, and everything goes to crap in the end. Also see works by Tolkien, Miyazaki, and George Romero.

Re: The Future of the World?
You CAN'T tell me this is a closed system... second law not so important. But there does seem to be a steady downward trend. Death is fun!!!

Yes - there will be no Dom4. Presumably, it is not worth making!

Re: The Future of the World?
Actually, the old nation of Agartha is fully and totally dead in the late ages. However, the humans are reanimating the Ancient Ones, to learn from them. They will learn from their mistakes, rise to power, rule the world - and bring back the ancient Agarthans, start a new cycle. Eventually, Agarthans and humans will develop interstellar travel, and travel into another kind of void, space. Then we get Star Dominions 1: The Space Age.

Re: The Future of the World?
Harmageddon, the Twilight of Gods (and mortals) is getting close.

Its true, anyone know why in fantasy its allways more magical in the old days? I mean I absolutely LOVE the way you can see nations rise and fall over the ages, I just wish that there wasn't a general downwards trend twoards death and no magic. I understand it from a gameplay point of view but from a story point of view its not so good.

Re: The Future of the World?
Not from gameplay point either. All death makes a boring late Era.
