I think that's the basic problem. Admittedly I don't pay a lot of attention to the gaming scene so there may well be some mainstream FTBS games, but 10% of a couple games is probably 0.

How many lousy FTBS games that we don't even remember came out back in the day?

*sigh* sad but true

I just read an article today re. WoW basically praising bizzard for having come up with this golden eggs goose. So yeah, FTBS is dead. Long live the new king - pay by the month/hour/minute MMORPG.

I guess I'll be playing more dominions for the years to come, hope the player base would remain

But when everything is said and done...I NEED DOMINIONS 4. Who else feels this way? And in the end, what are we going to do about it? What CAN we do about it?

Find a game with a sufficiently pliable engine and mod it?

So, we can translate it, as I proposed in another topic ) There's a lot of text there, though.

"Elemental - War of Magic" is one FTBS game that has come out recently. Current version, 1.09, is still rather bugged, shows weak AI and generally does not seem to me to be better in any respect than e.g. AOW2. However, the developper seems to be dedicated to drive the game forward through patches, so there may be potential in it.

I'll probably aim to buy it @ next year's xmas offer.
For this year's Xmas I'd have wished for a new patch for dom with maybe a new nation (EA Machaka?, MA Bogarus?)

Then you need to buy 5 Dom3's and give them to pretty girls.
We should ALL do that.
