Why such a high price?

Is there any point to buy this game for that much? You can download it for free. Even if you don't know jack about warez, just load up google, and type in warez. You will have 5000 warez sites on your list. I will have the game faster than you, and for free!

IF I will like it, MAYBE I will order it! I always buy GOOD games. If I won't like it, I will play with the warez. [Like almost everyone.]

...because clearly dominions 2 is going to be a top priority in illegal software distribution...and it will appear on 5000 sites before it even ships...
They already have things for people who want to try games free...they're called DEMOS. And if the company never releases any demo then I don't like them anyway.
So why dont you just try the demo when it appears and then you will buy the game because it is GOOD without any need to do anything illegal.
If not you can leave.

I'd have to agree with you licker...but I want to point out that there are occasionally RTS games that are different. Kohan I know of, not to imply there arent more. And Total Annihilation gets points for atmosphere with its music and its cannons that recoil when firing and explosions that light up the screen and its EARLY introduction of 3d to RTS and...where'd I put that CD again?

Illegal or not, 10/8 are playing with warez games. You cannot do anything against it. CD-Keys or copy protections won't help at all.
If a game is not good enough, and you don't want to waste your money, you just play with the warez. Yes you can try the demo,so you can decide that 1. You will buy the game if it is really good, 2. You will download the warez Version if the game is mediocre, so you can play with it, and delete it later on. 3. Do not download the warez, and do not buy the game, if it is crap.

Hehe, that's why I qualified my opinions on RTS by saying 'most'

I'm the first to admit that I dislike RTS, and that includes Kohan and TA, I just don't seem to have the capicity for them, and I did play WarCraft I&II all missions, a smattering of StarCraft, a decent amount of TA and CC. I've also tried RoN and hated it, though I've not tried any of the Age of Whatevers. I can deal with an RTS for maybe 8 hours total (not sequential usually) before I say 'seen it done it' and give up on it. Maybe I'd enjoy MP more, but I really don't have the time or inclination for MP anyway.

As to this warez idiot... I dunno why you people are bothering to reply to his drivel. I'm just waiting for him to get a ban or whatever they do on these Boards. I'll admit I sometime engage in poking the trolls, but this one... doesn't seem worth the effort

You will need a stick to poke him.
