Wow, SO much more FUN!

from Elemental Forums

Wow, great job on Fallen Enchantress. I guess creating a good game is kind of an ephemeral calculus, but Fallen Enchantress has the stuff!

I don't really know, but maybe it's the increased characterization and uniqueness of the factions and heroes, or the additional attention to the art that makes the play map so much more diverse and interesting to look at, particularly with those huge creatures lumbering around! Art & characterization, thumbs up!

It has also, thus far, been running much more smoothly on my 2.6 dual core (512mb ATI graphics) than WoM, even patched WoM, although I did still have a crash after playing straight through a couple hundred turns.

Anyway, this is great! I'm sure there are plenty of balancing issues and tweaks to be made and bugs to quash, but the litmus test of FUN TO PLAY is an EASY PASS, for me. This is a good game, because it's fun. Draws me in much more than WoM. I'm already looking forward to an expansion.

Cheers!

I've already put more time into this than the original. I agree - it's fun. Even though I'm still on my first playthrough, and the AI is non-present, it's fun.

After the creases are ironed out I have high hopes for this game. Getting the Master of Magic feel from it already.

You're right.  FE is much more fun.  It's fun to level up champions and towns.  Battles are more fun with special attacks.  Even out of the box balance is better than I expected; for example buying gear for your champions isn't cheap.

 

LOVE this game already and expect it to keep getting better.
