...as soon as it was available from Shrapnel? I know personally I have alot of faith in Illwinter and their game design vision as shown in Dominions 2. As soon as I found out about Dom3 coming out and looked over the planned feature-list, I was hooked and pre-ordered immediately. Anyone else do the same?
I know I'd much rather spend 50$ supporting an indi game company that focuses on depth of gameplay as opposed to sparkly graphics and mass appeal. Too many developers are afraid of the cost-to-return ratio on making niche market games without broad appeal. So we end up with alot of generalized game titles that are trying to appeal to far too many people and thus lack depth in their core gameplay.
Anyway, I'm rambling... my main point is to show my support for Illwinter and ask if anyone else has the same feelings. Call me a fanboi if you want but I feel quite strongly about supporting Illwinter by pre-ordering and having confidence in their next step forward in the vast and complex Dominions world.
All in all, much
for Illwinter and really looking forward to the release.
