No previews of Dominions II. in Online gaming mags? - Page 4

Nerfix, maybe you should wait until you have atleast tried the demo... Not that I'm against it, but those in Domx propably already know quite a lot about Dom2. I also think that someone's opinion about the game is atleast as important as what they tell it has in it.

Oh, and Endo' is only a nickname I made up when making a new char to Runescape, I hope it doesn't mean anything...
RS is a free mmorpg, and in there you can find everybody who wants to show every other how good they are, by having more powerful character. It lost its interest fast.

Who said i am not waiting for the demo before i make the preview?

So my post didn't make sense...

Edit:
And i believe that some occasional wanderer would like to get some in about Dom II, and those who know about the game migth want to know what other fans think about the game.

I will more likely do both a preview and review.

Why are you telling me about your nickname?

I am making preview of Dom II for Dom X, and I will also use it spread info about Dominions.

Sorry if this won't make any sense.

There, there... I still like you, even if everybody else is being mean.

for what its worth, a review of the game is planned in the january issue of a french strategy mag (perhaps i should say 'The' french strategy mag, as others pc mags are generalists and not focused only on strat games).

Hope it will convince some hundreds french strat gamers to buy the game, we need french (fresh?) blood

Hopefully the big gaming sites will post reviews at least, because they did not posted any previews

OMG! What is this flamewar again?
LOL Nerfix, you are always causing trouble.

Btw I have no idea why you lads are so mad. That post by Nerfix is not that dumb or something, I think that he misunderstood me.

I simply asked a question.

Okay this is the final warning on this, and I am locking this thread. First to address the issue at hand. We received Dominions too late to make into the standard PR cycle. Most previews will ot be done by most magazines unless they can get the game 3-4 months before it goes gold (but some will take a little later). They want a preview to come out long before the game comes out, not at around the same time. These publications have lead times to publish articles. Because of that there probably won't be any preview articles on Dominions II printed.

However we have the largest review list of any publisher of our size, and we use it aggressively. Not only will Dominions be reviewed Online, and in print, but it will probably also make some radio and newspaper (and maybe even TV if we get lucky). Dominions 2 is an exciting product, and we want to push it as far as we can.

To the other issue. If you want to discuss your opinion of another poster, take it to email or PM's. I will NOT tolerate continual personal attacks on anyone on this board. We're all adults here, act like it. That's my final statement on that matter. The next step will be dealing with specific people on an individual basis.

I don't WANT to do this, but I also will nto sit by and watch people attacked just because someone doesn't like their POV. We're a community here, not a junior high school.
