Default Re: Been a while, any word on Dom 4?

I just noted that the most recent patch was in January this year. First, the long term support is unheard of outside of online games, that is amazing.

Second, the Dev's must still be interested and playing with the ideas, so we can hope they are brewing something new up!

That said, my imagination fails me. I compare the situation to that of Diablo II. What needs to be changed? In both cases, the graphics engine is old, but the core mechanics are rock solid. A few new nations or classes (depending on the game) would be nice, but what can the developers do that is not just a fancy patch?

On the Dom side, the devs clearly have a lot more imagination than I do, so I am hopeful. On the other hand, I fear that they may have run with their ideas enough and want to try something new. I have recently changed jobs and it sure is nice to do something completely new. I hope they have new ideas for a game they want to try, rather than taking up a hobby like stamp collecting...

Oh, and if anyone has any suggestions on how to make my Earth Mother (now E3, N3, post death number 1) into a credible SC, don't be shy! The trampling seems to tire her out and the rejuvination spell doesn't keep up...
