Rawk!

Fun stuff. Reminds me a lot of Warcraft II. After finishing the demo, I’m ready to buy.
What kind of multiplayer capabilities are there?
March 11th, 2003 at 5:56 pm
Time to buy! Good Job LGP!! :-)

wow, this looks cool!
March 11th, 2003 at 6:14 pm
I am buying this game as soon as it is back from the replicators!
It kinda reminds me of LOTR2 and AOE. Warcraft I could see as well, but it didn’t strike me until someone else mentioned it.

the game shows its age :([br]
however I’ll buy it!

And was not very impressed. The graphics are circa-1999, and the sound ain’t great either. That said, it is quite a bit of fun, and I might buy it if the price is right.
It didn’t crash, can’t argue with that either. I just wish the in-game text was anti-aliased… it’s G-d-awful as it is right now. You know it’d bad when X11′s fonts compare favorably to it ;).

I just checked it out, I havn’t played more than two minutes of it but it felt nice… I can’t really put it any other way ;).
What I want to know, and what will influence my decision the most, is this, can I play it multiplayer with windows users? A friend of mine runs windows and I really only play multiplayer, and I could be able to convince him to get the $20dollar linux version but only if they are interoperable. I think I’ve read about this before but have forgotten.

I have got this error under SuSE 8.1 :
InitDriver [linux/cylinuxsnd.cpp:1153]: ***ERROR***: SDL_mixer error: ‘ ‘
So I was unable to get my sound card working with Majesty, that is very sad.
I have tried the game for 10 minutes at works, it really fantastic: No bugs, It seems to be like Warcraft 2 : So I will purchase it.
But could you help me to fix the problem with my Sound card ? It would be great to get sound working as well

=D

Can somebody put it on E-donkey, and post the file-hash?
March 12th, 2003 at 6:39 am
It’s a nice game! I have played the demo. Is it funning smooth on lowend computers? Can I get some fps reports

The demo is over in ten minutes, but it’s fun, without question.
Some questions arise concerning game concept:
Ok, since I don’t have to compete in a clickfest by clicking on my units to let them engage them the enemy and since I do not have to click on the enemy either to make him a worthy aim for my later-game, testosterone-laden heroes by setting up a reward on killing him, anything that is left to do is paving the map with marketplaces and ranger-/mage-guilds (this combination is striking).
So, I’m not sure about buying it or not. On the one hand, I can eat a pizza and watch my empire grow (which I appretiate very much in turn-based games), on the other hand I’m not sure, if there is something to decide and to take action at all.
Graphically, some may call it last millenium, but it’s a nice medieval landscape and architecture – gives the impression of those very romantic old fairy-tales’ illustrations.

I went to TuxGames to buy the game, hoping to pick up Alpha Centauri too, and now it’s gone…
I’m going to cry. That’s one game that I really wanted to get, but didn’t have the chance for the last few months.
Oh well. You snooze, you lose.

I hope the actual game supports multiple resolutions? couldn’t find anything in the demo, and 800×600 looks damn small on a 1280×1024 screen.

Well, I’m sold. Just bought mine.
/me waves his reciept in the air!

I played the demo a second time and it was still fun. That’s a good sign.
This time around though, the monsters seemed to be tougher and my wizards were weaker. But I still stomped the vampires. It seems like the game selects random monster sets. Maybe I’m wrong though.
Glad I ordered mine. I hope it sells well. It would be really funny if it sold better than the Windows version. I suppose it is doubtful, but it wasn’t exactly flying off of the shelves a few years ago. It’s too bad because it is a pretty cool RTS.
