How about a contest?!

Unfortunately (and I kinda agree a bit here), most of the reviews I've seen specifically state something like, "This game is NOT for the casual gamer, it's too hard to learn!" And truth be told, Japher's sarcastic (and highly amsuing) remarks about this game not being relaxing and fun has a ring of truth about it....in that it's like a good game of chess... it takes alot of concentration and it's not the type of "fun" that alot of casual gamers are looking for. Hence the popularity of first-person shooters. They are a tension release, and you can just jump in and start bLasting away.

I'd much rather have the reviews say up front that this game is not for everyone, than see pissed-off buyers rant about how unwieldy it is after reading a glowing, buy-it-quick review. It is true that this game won't appeal to each and every gamer, or even to each and every TBS strategy gamer; for many, a SP game with nice graphics, nice sounds, where one can relax while kicking some AI *** is perfect. Those players should know where they're going before they pick up Dominions 2.
