Well, somehow or another I'd missed the boat all these years on the turn based or realtime fantasy strategy side of things, but I'm looking to change that. I just threw down for Scallywag ( I'm the Roguelike guy) and more importantly Dominions III off of Shrapnel and now my mind is wandering about as to what all is afoot along these lines.
-I've already ordered all the Disciples stuff off of GoG
-Plan to get Warlords Battlecry III also off GoG when it is available either tomorrow or somewhere in these next few weeks---can't be much longer.
-I know I need to pick up that new King's Bounty from somewhere at some point...unsure to go for a boxed or digital copy.
-I know the upcoming King's Bounty expansion sounds swell, as does Elven Legacy, and wasn't there something Stardock had in the works aside from the Master of Magic homage? Supposedly there's a Disciples III coming at some point?
So yeah, what else is roughly current and to come? Granted, my current PC can't run any of these things, but I hope to enter into the modern computing age sometime later this year.
I've not played any of the older games I've heard people mention here and there like Age of Wonders or Heroes of Might and Magic...but my plan for older ones is to wait and hope for them to arrive on GoG due to the many benefits and that GoG is by far my favorite digital distro service from what I've tried with Steam and Impulse.
I'm not sure what made this all finally "click" in my head, but it is probably due to my having some kinda maniacal Roguelike projection onto them in terms of lots of strategic depth and such.
I didn't even bother with a Demo for Dominions III or anything...this all just went on instinct with slight wavering.
