ElTerprise: Yes that's what i meant. It's really good :).
I tend to be quite strange with the games I like. There are so many games on GOG that people love yet they are not for me. Not that I mind, there are also so many games that I liked and own on GOG.
AgentBirdnest: I think that's the winning idea of the night :-)
(Don't suppose anyone else has a better one? ):-| ... Good!)
*puts on chicken suit*
That is better. Owl and Chicken. It sounds like a saturday morning cartoon. :-)
CarrionCrow: Actually, it was you mentioning my absence that caused me to chime in again, not the shit game.
Doing all right. Chewing on some garbage, but as a bonus, the campaign is ridiculously short, so that means I can get through this crap that much faster.
So I have magic powers? I just call and Crow turns up like a super hero. *checks to see if Crow is wearing his underpants over his trousers* :-)
I am glad to hear you are doing all right. I was kind of hoping you would play some nice games and stop torturing yourself with the bad games. Did you finish Orcs Must Die (I think that was the game, sorry if I am wrong)?
ElTerprise: What's the matter with Retribution. Is it that bad? Wasn't it that game that saw the return of a rudimentary base-building iirc?
I played a bit of the DOW 2 games at my brothers, and I did not like them compared to the first DOW game. The whole squad based gameplay is not as good as traditional RTS elements, at least for me. Plus as Crow has mentioned a few times, what is the point of having a cover system if you don't end up needing it due to over powered characters or armour/characters that just destroys the cover.
They just stuck the 40K theme on top of their WW2 engine and called it DOW 2. DOW 1 actually hold up quite well for me, but the expansions were quite bad. The first one was okay, but the other two DOW 1 expansions were just skirmish missions with a very loose story wrapped around them to make it seem like a single player campaign.
