Default Re: This would have been a lot better than dominio

I liked CoE just fine, but options for larger resolutions and improved graphics (similar to Dom3 for units and the kind of stuff in your own map for terrain tiles) would make it really kick-*** even with the mechanics unchanged.

For CaoCao, I would like to pose the following question: Are you the same CaoCao who posted on the Stardestroyer.net forums?

There are many things about CoE that are great but its a very different game than Dominions is. And the devs actually have bounced back to it between each version of Dominions.

I think that having two games allows the devs to take a "break" from the other game. They get to do their working on it for the fun of it plans. Both games would probably suffer if they tried to focus on just one of them.

CoE is so clearly an ancestor of Dominions that I'm not sure how it could have been improved in ways that didn't end up pretty similar to Dominions.
