Elemental/Dom 3 comparison on the Elemental forums

[Zeldor]

There are surely some problems with Dom3 and there is no reason to deny it there:
- graphics are really bad [even if they may be climatic], of course better than Dom2 or Dom1
- sound? huh, just try to listen to illithid mind blasts or trampling!
- AI - extremely bad, even considering in what environment it exists
- balance - there are huge problems with it in vanilla
- UI - also really bad, also could be much better even with same tools

There are many great things about Dom3 [MP mostly], but it has huge amount of flaws. Game would be surely better with one age, but better balanced, with good AI, normal map editor etc, but it's not correlated. And Illwinter is not a normal company. And on top of that comes Shrapnel, which can be described best with its ads [everyone knows which].

P.S. Maybe we should buy Illwinter and fund Dom4?
