Re: We love you, Illwinter, but DO NOT DO THIS!
Yes, someone start a poll. I do not want my favorite game company venturing away from medieval fantasy!
And Illwinter, never sell out to EA. We need you thinking outside the box.

Yeah that might be cool .
Ships but also still magic. Like in many Animes or also in Star Wars.

Definitely can be done as seen with StarWars, but it can be difficult to mix SciFi and Magic.

Re: We love you, Illwinter, but DO NOT DO THIS!
A steampunk Dominions-type game would be absolutely brilliant. I've been hankering for a good steampunk game since Arcanum, and Ilwinter is the type of developer that will not disappoint. Consider me SOLD.

Re: We love you, Illwinter, but DO NOT DO THIS!
[Starts to shake and shudder severely.]
Funny thing is I'm considering starting a Total Conversion for BF 2142 called "Dominions", which'll feature the Vættir and draw heavily upon... Guess what ?
I'll let you know if anything happens. I've done some mod work before.
Anyway, I'd actually like a Dominions FPS. Think of it, you're got fantasy RTS and RPG, but FPS? The closest thing I can think of is the siege mod for BF 1942, with the English fighting the French.

Re: We love you, Illwinter, but DO NOT DO THIS!
Dominions RPG and steampunk setting are both very cool ideas. An RTS might also work if they focus more on the battles and unit coordination, positioning, tactics, et cetera than with base-building, rushes, and other generic RTs crap like that.

Re: We love you, Illwinter, but DO NOT DO THIS!
Hmmm.... I can imagine how to translate Dominons into RTS and RPG (maybe even MMORPG or a city-builder), but FPS seems a bit stratching it. There is little, if any, shooting. Maybe a Zelda-esque thing...
I personally would enjoy a steampunk dominions (I love Dominions fantasy, I would like to see what Kristoffer does with modern stuff). Space game: Mayyybe, but those focus more on technology and space ship design normally, which isn't very Dominionsey (though they could suprise us... ).
As for what type of game, I don't particularly like RPG's (just a personal opinion, ignore me). I think a Dominion's RTS could be fun, though a good deal of the original game would probably change in the translation.
I will end with something very hard to do: make a Dominions Racing Game!

Re: We love you, Illwinter, but DO NOT DO THIS!
Close combat could work in an FPS game. And there is some shooting (archers, javelins, hurlers, axe-throwers, and so on) .
But anyways, do whatever you want, Illwinter, just don't make a Dominions 40 000 with Vanir fighting Jotuns in space. Just don't. Please.
