    Well i meant that the ammount of effort spent on '3Ding' the game, could have been better spent elsewhere to the benefit of the game.
    You're a graphics artist, you know how time intensive going 3D over 2D is often? I do love 3D games, my comment was more on the way it often tends to steal from the rest of the game in development. Sounds like CotN could have been a better game wearing 'pharoahs' graphics(which were very nice also), and fleshing out the gameplay elements?

    Still i'm a bit of a stick-in-the-mud when it comes to strategy games and 3D. I cant think of many done well(or atleast better than their 2D counterparts).......or even any at this momment [edit: TW doesnt really count as it has two distinct game engines - and its the 3D part where you tend to loose control ]

    Today i've mostly been playing Fire Emblem, its very fun to play, and the cartoony graphics dont do its serious strategy gameplay justice(although they are good in the typical manga way). The only gripe i have is in its very liniar story line approach - i dont think it will be one i'll come back to often after i've completed it.
    But for a kidish 2D TBS(with japanese flavour) ive been surprised at how much i've enjoyed playing it

          Made with RPG-maker 2000. Basically like the old console RPGs.

          Having quite a lot of fun.

          ACK!

            The graphics aren't that bad, I don't think. And watching someone pitch over the head of a dead horse is priceless.

            I may even buy it.

            ACK!

                I did. Btw, version 0.700 is now out, so it is worth upgrading.

                • Just got that X-men Legends II game, pretty fun so far. A lot like the first one, but hey, I liked it and I haven't played it in a year. Also just got done with Mercenaries (highly recommend it - had never even heard of it, but if you like GTA type games it is amazing).

                    I will do that. I haven't gotten anyone to level 6 yet though, so buying it is not quite a priority yet.

                      • I have become quite addicted to Texas Hold Em (Poker). So much so that I think I will start a thread on here (Other Games) in hopes of generating interest among the Apolyton Poker Players.

                        • There have been loads of OT threads on Texas, and they usually survive for longer than average. I'd check with rah before opening one here too.

                            I think a few others (Floyd?) have also done very well..

                            besides the people just interested in it (But that don't do as well)
