I figured I'd not go there... but yeah.
Maybe they're giving this "respect your customer" stuff a shot. They recently stated that their PC sales are down 90%, so it's pretty safe to say their fancy DRM didn't exactly improve things. (quite the opposite I wager)

In comparison to Anno 1404 it's pretty much the same formula(not necessarily a bad thing), the new bits I did notice is that pollution can affect your crops, and the processes of making products has been stream lined a little bit(in a good way). For construction, I only saw 3 options in the demo, General(which only let me build roads), Tycoon Workers(Houses, city centers, Depots, Distilleries and power), Tycoon Employees(tools). I can't remember how this compares to Anno 1404 as I haven't played in a while(Installing it again). Back to the streamlining of making products, you click in Tycoon Employees, and there is a tool icon. Click on the tool icon and it brings up a flow chart on how to make the tools, which also lets you place all the buildings required(an Ore mine and an Iron Mine plus a smelter) and then place the building to actually make the tools. I honestly liked it. The demo was very structured(two campaign missions) so I didn't get to experience the underwater gameplay, or much for that matter, which left me a bit disappointed, but from the looks of it, if it stays true Anno, it'll be a good game. One thing I did like a lot was the whole futuristic feel, flying cars, giant grinders, the farms are all robotic, the depot has a cran, etc. Also the menu feels like your actually dealing with a future operating system.

I'm sure they are still desperately trying to justify their DRM, but a PC demo, removing their DRM from SH5... there's been a few half-decent choices lately.
One can hope, right?

Found them like that. Guess it's a joke by the Nehrim devs.

Awww, adorable little bastards.
Erothin, the capital of Middlerealm. Should maybe visit that place sometime, looks fancy. But first, I must deal with my donkey's suicidal tendencies. |

There's some Welsh/Australian/New Zealand joke in there somewhere about 'making love' to the animal (usually a sheep) on a cliff so it pushes back harder... Relevant?

Avatar! Silly game good fun for rainy days.
The good: Role playing plenty of quests, beautiful game world, mindless shoot em up, can play both races. The bad: Driving is insane, flying is insane, mindless shoot em up. Don't play this game if your trying to give up smoking... |
