@linkblade: don't worry about it :) i know there are brighter fires that need the fire department's time.
I was rather looking for an acknowledgment (even 5 months ago) of whether i'm missing something or it's actually an issue that will be fixed some time in the future.
So, thanks for taking the time to respond! It's better even later than never, too. Now i know it'll end up on a bug/feature list somewhere :)
@Echo: Homm3 has a fan-made expansion called HOTA (horn of the abyss) which you can also play online, with a lobby! There's another "branch" too which allows online play but i think much less known, called VCMI (in it you can download any mods you want + a HOTA one which brings the town(s) from it etc). It also has some specific mods recommended for online play.
Both of these expansions have their own campaign(s), with many different towns and such. Yes, you should make 1 installation of homm3 for each of the expansions (to keep them clean and not have any funny business in the campaigns).
PS: WoG was the best, too bad no one plays it anymore :( it was made specifically for online play, especially due to it allowing the specific alteration of some (hidden?) rules.
@linkblade: interesting name for this "disease". It's exactly what i'm feeling and even though i get sucked into a game for a night/day, the next night i'm sick of playing anything again. That's the main reason i never really finished Grim Dawn even though i've tried several times (and characters lol).
In my case it's probably the many years playing WoW taking a toll now...
Manor lords, headquarters ww 2, Against the storm, We are football 2024.
Starting to get into a "burnout" again even though i'm not playing much. I have no F idea how to stop feeling like this and actually start playing games. It's very hard to even open any game most of the time and i'm sick of it :(
From 2012, total spent = 860$ and oldSpend = 63$. Also, at most 300$ in keys from other websites.
Pretty light because i like to wait before buying the next "incredible bla bla bla" that's going to become the "best X type of game in the world". Also, not buying Paradox and similar games helps a lot. I'd rather test them by other means due to their predatory DLC tactics and barebone main games.
Interesting article! Glad i found it and read it. I can only say that i fully agree having quit HS several years ago for the same reasons, more or less.
The company is not worth it anymore. Only cash grabing gigs without proper direction (look at diablo mobile, sc2, etc).
I'd much rather pay for single player games i can play endlessly than enter a stupidity loop similar to what gambling is.
Here comes We are football 2024, Order of battle, Headquarters ww2, manor lords, against the storm etc!
Thanks for the review. I was thinking of playing this, but the blunders/oversights are quite important to me. Unopened loot getting screwed upon leaving an area and monsters respawning? No thanks. Give us infinite inventory then, until these issues get fixed! I'm playing an arpg for the loot and maybe a bit for the story => huge frustration with issues related to this.
I've started (and ended, lol) playing Avorion with a semi-overhaul mod pack (XAvorion). Stopped because one of the mods cannot be reverted thus basically forcing a new game (and i need a break for now). Definitely coming back to it soon.
Also started a few games of Millenia. Looks interesting but it's barebones and some things are off. Not gonna entertain the Paradox money making scheme either (20$ game + 500$ dlcs). The game needs much more to even consider buying it. At least some of the concepts are different and interesting, yet really fit for meta-game play (which i deeply hate).
I've already made a thread about this, but here goes:
- go to the Community tab on the main page, then click on any page number down below (e.g. 4)
Expected: the realms/threads of that page number are loaded and visible directly.
Actual result: we are back on the main page of the site, with the News tab active. Switching the Community one does indeed show the correct threads from the initially selected page number.
It seems that clicking on pages 2,3,... of the community tab reloads the main page but with the news tab active. When clicking on community again, the correct page is loaded
When clicking the "view all realms" button, a 0 shows up underneath each of them. Shouldn't it count the number of posts about it, or something similar? Also, it'd be nice to have a checkbox to filter out realms with zero posts so they don't clutter the list.

Speaking of known issues, any news on the one I reported above, 5 months ago?

Pathfinder wrath of the righteous
Tales and tactics
Risk of rain 2 (first time for me!)
Damn i want a sabatical to relax.
I started playing EU4 Extended Timeline with several mods that work with it. It's fun and tedious and annoying trying to conquer the world :)
Anyone liking Songs of Conquest? Or the new Rimworld dlc? 😀😇
Try the Occultist with it. I think that's my latest character too lmao

For whatever reason i cannot quote your comment...
You could try Grim Dawn as it is much cheaper (and better as a game in my opinion).

Is there a way to create realms for missing games, by us?
For example, i'd be interested in the game Avorion and a few others. Millenia is coming up too.
Also, how about adding a button to the right side of each realm name so we can join faster (without having to actually open its page)?

Avorion. Best game out there of its kind, especially with a few mods.
