Stardock Fantasy Game Announcement Today [Oct 02, 2014, 08:19 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Stardock plans to announce a new fantasy-themed strategy game today, according
to an exclusive report on
GamesBeat where they note that the prior attempt to create such a
game almost destroyed the company, as 2010's Elemental: War of Magic was
a self-described failure that
shook the company to its foundation before being reworked into a viable product.
Paving the way for the new game's announcement, the article takes a look at the
aftermath of the game's failure, and how it steeled the company to succeed going
forward. "Elemental was the fire that burned Stardock down so we could fly,"
brand manager Adam Biessener explains. "… like a beautiful bird. Our games are
much better, honestly."

Gal Civ 3 for $99 early access now that is just down right crazy!
Keep in mind for that price that you get all future dlc and expansions for free. The high price is more like buying the game and a complete season pass. If they follow through their promise to release Dark Avatar/Arnor style expansions plus smaller DLC you'll be breaking even or possibly saving money in the long run.
"If" being the key word.
Or you just wait until next years steam summer sale so that you can save money with guaranteeThere is no reason to pre-order games.
Unless you actually want to play them and they're EA
Hehe, true
But if you want to play them you can of course pre-order them.. I meant there is no point to pre-order if you want to possibly save money. Waiting is always cheaper.

Legendary Heroes was pretty good, actually. It restored some of my faith in Stardock, but not enough to make me preorder anything from them ever again.
I would say yes BUT it does appear that they did everything they could to save the game instead of cut and burn the game. So in terms of what they attempted I give them that.

I made the mistake of buying the collector's edition of Elemental: War of Magic, and haven't given them a dollar sense then.

I stay away from Stardock games.
They may have once been a good developer, but no longer.
Well, you should try Elemental Fallen Heroes if you haven't. They did a good job with that and continue to update it.
Demo or no buy for me
Fly like a beautiful bird? Sounds like a tech blogger/fanboy reviewing the new iPhone.
In any case, I think I'll watch for this one, but no bloody way I'll preorder.
