You sure you didn't accidentally misspell your username? I only ask because a couple of times I've almost created accounts on something with a username I use on other accounts/forums and realized that in my haste I switched two letters or maybe even omitted one.

You've shown that you aren't, and that's that. Our reasons for liking the game won't all coincide, proving that there is no objective way to ascertain a game's worth. It's entirely personal.

What else is there to expect? That the op and the rest of us not sink to that level, I should hope.

Because it's fun!!! That's why. If you don't think so, then that's your truth. No one here can make you think it deserves the praise they give it. I love snickers bars and I know people who don't. No amount of my telling them why they taste so damn good is going to sway their opinions/tastes.

No it's not the best game ever. [I]Darklands [/I]is, and that's the objective truth. I'm sure that someday someone will come up with a mathematical formula that proves it. As someone who doesn't usually enjoy the RTS genre, I'm actually really enjoying this game. I'm not sure "deep" is a word I would use to describe it, but "addictive" would sum it up for me. I only wish I had more time to play it. I haven't delved so deeply into it that I can say with any surety what imbalance

[quote]Oh, and there definitely needs to be a way to turn off the auto-focus when you zoom it. Getting stuck on fighters and having your view scrolled around as you're trying to select stuff is just annoying.[/quote] AGREED!
