Glad that the disaster that was the original Elemental didn't kill these guys.

WTF Stardock is out of Michigan....Hmm never knew that.

Good read though, and I look forward to their new game.

Started Playing Gal Civ 2 again the other day, eventually I'll get Gal Civ 3 once it's fully finished.

Solid game developer really.

* Another Fantasy-Strategy 4x games is always a nice welcome though.

Games like this you can play for YEARS and never get bored.

I never realized Elemental was that bad. Didn't some people dig it?

Seems like they got lucky with a big cash injection from the impulse sale and are now happily spending it on golden toilets and yoga classes for the office and staff, what could possibly go wrong. Seriously though I hope galciv 3 will be great because it really needs to be after elemental.

Doing It Right: Fallen Enchantress

Critically Sane's The Strategist takes a look at Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes, and the journey to get to the most recent stellar release.

"'If at first you don’t succeed, try and try again.'

It’s a great motto for a 12 year old learning to play the piano, but in game development, not succeeding on the first try can often mean utter disaster for the company involved. Frequently, it results in the death of a franchise and an effort to cut and run as far as possible by the publisher. There are a number of reasons why an awful title reaches market, however, and occasionally, just occasionally, there’s enough love and support that leaving an effort to wither and die on the vine simply is not an option."
