Reply to Sorcerer King nears gold and some random thoughts on the game industry in Sorcerer King Dev Journals Elemental Forums

I really like Sorcerer King. I would agree that it feels like the best game you've made since Galciv 2 (I'm still waiting on Galciv 3 to ripen a bit). Any plans on adding steam workshop?

[quote who="AgaresOaks" reply="11" id="3570802"] HotS: Is attempting a radically different approach. "Casualising" the game (in my opinion) does little to nothing to actually distinguish your game from competitors. However, that plus marketing your game to the userbase of ones that don't typically play MOBAs (Diablo, WoW, Hearthstone players) might give you a solid chance. [/quote] HotS is the only MOBA that I play, because it's more casual. I don't care to memor

Both 9mil and 30mil sound like rather small figures compared to the cost of replacing it on 100 000 workstations. I'm sure they'll replace it when the cost of doing so is lower than maintaining it?

Reply to Steam Monster Summer Sale in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

They introduced the objective captures to reduce the mop-up phase. And they added the new shrines that gave your faction new race-wide advantages which I think was cool (I think they activated when you blessed, was a while since I played). I also liked the god/disciple team-ups you could make to create team warfare. Other than that I don't remember much being different. Actually now that I think about it I think they added so you can set a territory to buy units every turn now. An

It was good. Pet play, buildable stuff, pipboy minigames, customizable weapons etc all on top the standard formula. Looked like a top-of-the-line AAA game. Also an ios game called fallout shelter available now. Android coming later.

Reply to wait, who is the sorcerer king ? in Sorcerer King Elemental Forums

If I understood it right, the sorcerer king is trying to draw all magic into himself/herself to become immortal / godlike. This will kill everything else in the world. If I played as a good character against the sorcerer king, how would that fit?

One unit is set to attack move towards point A. Once it reaches point B, it spots an enemy and moves to point C to destroy it. The enemy is destroyed, and the unit moves to point B, then continues to point A. Just continue to point A immediately, no reason to go back to point B. One unit is set to attack move towards point A. Once it reaches point B, it spots two enemies and moves to point C to destroy the first one. The enemy is destroyed, and the unit moves to point B for a br

Reply to RIP Strategic planning in Everything Else Elemental Forums

Since when were strategic plans not adaptive in their nature? Ex http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OODA_loop . Can't imagine anyone designing a strategic planning process that doesn't involve a feedback element or review phase. The only do-or-die long-term strategy I can think of is that seen in religious extremists who commit to a singular vision and die trying to get there. Of course if you're just altering your strateg

Reply to Advice for Dialbo in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

Personally I think Path of Exile isn't quite as good as Dialbo 3, however, they are quite similar in the initial 10-15 hours of gameplay. What does PoE's endgame look like nowadays? I haven't played for a long time. In Dialbo 3, you do timed rifts that increase in difficulty until you are defeated, and higher difficulty equals more/better drops.

Reply to Advice for Dialbo in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

I think Dialbo 3: RoS is your best choice. It has expanded in content and complexity immensely since the luke-warm release of Dialbo 3. It is probably the best Dialbo right now. And the expansion to Dialbo 3, RoS, is a must have. Blizzard frequently runs sales of Dialbo 3 + RoS bundled, usually at 40 dollars.

Reply to XCOM 2 announced in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

Just some food for thought here. IGN is obviously in a partnership with the dev to post exclusives. They had the same deal going with Evolve, and we saw content droplets every week or so for half a year before release. (edit: IGN posted some 80 "articles" about evolve in total, and ultimately reviewed it as a 9/10 game which was the highest score given by anyone .) This is a kind of intentional swarming
