the_bard: My new crack: MoM -__-
I'm beginning to feel like I'm starting to understand this game after having my wizard's ass handed back over to me several times during my first forays into Arcanus. The more time I spend with it the better it gets. It's deeper than anything I've played in awhile. I actually felt excitement when I summoned my first Colossus. This game kicks ass.
Someone said the user-interface is so intuitive that you can learn to play it even without a manual. That doesn't seem to be the case at least for me. :) Too many buttons, options, icons, symbols etc., already starting from what difficulty level, how large world and how many enemies I should choose for learning the game. Everything at minimum? Time to crack open the manual once again, I've skimmed through it before.
Same problem with Master of Orion. Two games I've always meant to try and learn... Your message just stresses it that I should give them a more serious try. After all, I did eventually learn the ins and outs of Dungeon Keeper too (= imp-spamming seems to be the key to victory always, as long as you are not running out of gold), it can't be that much harder to learn MoM and MoO, can it? :)
