Honestly, worrying about AI taking over the world seems a bit silly to me. What will you worry about next, aliens from outer space? Hahaha! This message brought to you by BOT7&¤#"!

If you got young ones do yourself a favor and do NOT stick a mobile/tablet in their face every time you need some quiet time. And if you do, at least put on a documentary about animals or something.
Free on steam this weekend if anyone's on the fence. Also an expansion coming soon-ish.

It's been in closed beta for a while, they probably didn't review it "after release" at all. Actually, on my steam it says it's not yet released.
Are we talking about galciv3 or ashes of the singularity?
Realistically, the US probably spies on every other government in the whole world. Also, alternative headline: US government under cyber-attack! Citizens should prepare to give up even more rights as a result.
Personally I loved the aesthetics, I'd rate endless legend's world map far above AOW3 map for example. The resource system and minor faction system just feel so right in that game. They also had a few fresh ideas for tactical combat beating out the ol' zerg/grind in AoW3. Endless legend has an actual research system with "ages" to dive into, whereas AoW3 has pre-selected disciplines and a bit of randomness in what spells appear. Not to mention the empire building in AoW3 is atroci
Exactly, they're already offering a much cheaper, better option for streaming from your real computer. So that leaves form factor, again, something you are paying premium for to get a machine you can do less with than a normal desktop computer. If steam machines ever exceed 0.1 % of machines connected to Steam's storefront client, I'll eat something nasty.
[quote]I'm not convinced that Steam Machines will have any appreciable impact on anything.[/quote] Precisely this. Steam machines have two advantages as I see it. One - they let you stream from your real gaming computer. And two - form factor, which you are paying premium for.
Either this, or a next-gen gpu. Oh, the choices...
DX12, and also I don't want to be that old guy saying no to every new technology.
[quote who="benmanns" reply="5" id="3530980"] Just read an article that stated that even illegal versions of windows8.1 will be able to upgrade an get a legal copy in the first year, not sure if that is the truth but the article says so [e digicons]:P[/e] Guess we will see about that if 10 goes live.

Also because of the Dungeon Master? If I understand things correctly, Stardock would gather information about how people play the game and then use that to improve the AI. Now, if you're cheating, or using mods, clearly the information that you supply is not going to be worth anything.
It just so happens that this is a tropico 5 free-to-play weekend on steam.
Personally I think it was a marginal upgrade from tropico 4, definitely not worth the pricetag for a returning customer. But if you're looking for another fun sim with a bit of silly, Tropico's the way to go.
Tropico 5 did that.
The game was released almost two years ago and almost nothing has changed in what we can mod. It's played out, more than anything.
I picked it up after the glowing release reviews. While the game does a lot of things right, I don't think it has staying power. While I'm playing I get the feeling of "just one more turn", but the next 30 minutes are the same as the last. Sure, I could grow my city to hundreds of thousands, but scale is really all the game has to offer. That, and about 90% of the time is spent thinking about how to best avoid traffic jams. There are no random events, there is no difficu
[quote who="KageSpartan" reply="48" id="3529662"] I'm going to suggest a release date the last couple of days prior to the Fourth of July. A significant chunk of the userbase should have a long weekend at that time. Everyone else will have a normal weekend, and a Thursday or Friday release would give new buyers time to get it downloaded prior to close-of-business on Friday. Risking the July-September drought may actually work in SK's favor, as a lack of solid games dur
Game feels way too basic for me. But I wouldn't say that it's a bad game because it does what it does in a successful way. It's just underwhelming, lacking ambition, stale. That it was made straight-to-app doesn't help me when I'm playing on PC.
Get hyped! 14th april release. http://ageofwonders.com/eternallords/ [video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KfC8b2vxow[/video]
Take your time, I say.
Fortunately for us... For the emprah
Looks very nice, but tired of citybuilders not delivering. Will wait for judgements on playability at release.
