(I started this thread because I'm waiting for the Populous: The Beginning demo to download and I'm kinda boring myself now Feel free to add your own comments to these but don't forget the topic is mainly about what's coming up in 1999. I heard something about a new Seven Kingdoms and a new Total Anihilation is that right? And where can I find websites (pictures and stuff - devellopers sites) for all these upcoming new games? Which new one will be the best and will get the closest to AoK? When will they be released?
Meanwhile I'll give you my personal reviews on all RTS games I bought the last couple of years. I ordered them from best to worse.
+ awesome game, my all time fav so far
- no bug patches released while it's full of bugs
+ bug patches released
+ great graphics on buildings and maps
+ very nice interlude video's
+ amazingly low comp requirements for such a game
+ very nice unit gallery
+ good storyline
- unit graphics are pretty low quality compared to maps
- too easy economic model
- unfinished game (due to multiplayer RoR)
+ has great in-game user-interface options
- not much negative really, DR is a great game
- OK I found one, ugly pre-game interface
+ nice theme
- economy model is way too complicated
- too slow on a P133
- not much variety in military units
- unfinished game (due to multiplayer RoR)
+ not much, I better didn't by it and got the demo first
- too hard to start with
- tutorial doesn't help much with that
- and the manual is too thick to do it yourself
- unfinished game (due to multiplayer RoR)
- most stupid game I ever bought
- very user unfriendly
- I like the box more than what's inside
- very cheap story
- unfinished game (due to not interested)
