Why such a high price?

Well I hope that Dom II. will sold out completly, but I doubt is seriously...50$ Category is for top rated games usually....

I payed about 50� of the original dominions. And i can now say that i haven't enjoyed any full price game as much as the dominions. This in mind i will gladly pay another 50� of the ascension wars.

However Shrapnel should consider that we still have to pay about $11 for shipping and 16% taxes. That makes the game very expensive.

This cant be true! I mean Dom II. looks like a good game, but it shouldnt cost more than 25$ if you ask me.
You cannot compare this to Half Life II. in quality. [It was a bad example cuz HL2 will be an FPS, but you know what do I mean, right?]

Dominions II will have much more content than HL2. So if it's only the graphics that you care about, well, bad for you then.
I'm willing to pay the 45-50$ and the shipping costs for this game happily, while i won't propably even touch HL2.

I agree Nerfix....I have spent mucho money on games....many of them were marketed as THE best game ever (Empire Earth comes to mind...)

I bought games that cost 30-40 dollars that are not even in my collection anymore....

Graphics? I don't care about graphics....the way i look at it, the better the graphics, the less time they have to actually put into gameplay.

I bought Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic....for i think 30 bucks...within 3 days, I had it uninstalled, and trying to pawn it off on someone for 20 bucks....Dominions offers so much more....so much more....even for the 20 dollar price difference...

I would pay that in a heartbeat...and I will come this thursday

Yeah... I stopped playing AOW 2 when i found Dominions. IMHO, Dominions I is one of the best games ever.

WOW! You guys are kidding!

AoW 2. is awesome, I play it for a long time now. Multiplayer is incredible fun as well!
The gfx is fantastic too!
I never thought that a real fantasy strategy gamer dont like this game! IMHO this is the best turn based fantasy strategy ever..
