I hope that in Dom3 they encrypt their data. Even if they did a Rot13 on each bit of text before using it I dont think it would slow the game down much and would make it alot more fun not knowing stuff like this.

I beg to differ on both points. Rot13 or the feeble method they used in the save files will fall very quickly to people who want to crack the game. Significant encryption raises the bar, but since the key(s) must be somewhere in the distribution, it will fall eventually... and even w/o the the keys built in, there are Other Ways of getting them.

As to making it more fun, well, not for me. I don't mind losing to a better player, but I strongly object to losing because I not only don't know the rules, but they're actively hidden from me.
