Default Re: Dominions 3 Announced

As a solo-player I would love to see more done in AI, but Ive accepted that it would be purely a personal wishlist item. It cant be a "broke" or "must have" because of the kind of game it is. In fact, many of the "absolutely important to fix" things I see should automatically be scaled back to "well I personally think it would be great" wishlist things if people keep in mind that Dominions is a multi-platform Play-by-EMail MultiPlayer game. Thats what it is. Thats what it does well. Thats a market where there are few other games that can come anywhere near being a competition to Dominions. And it also tends to make some things harder to add to it than other things without drastically changing what the game is. I cant loudly want Illwinter to make an effort to spread themselves into other market niches unless its something they want to do. I would rather see them happily and excitedly pile on the things they do well than to see them force themselves into a shift of direction. Make your pitches folks but if you cant convince Illwinter to WANT to do it, then the results wouldnt be worth pursuing InMyHumbleOpinion
