I do think, even with the slowest setting, things are going at quite a pace. Turn based I could handle better I think
I do not understand the moaning about the real time gameplay where you can pause give orders and change the speed of the game,just like in Europa Universalis.Most turn based game have loads of “pass” turns with little to do.
Meh, some of us just don't like real time under any circumstances. We tolerate it if the rest of the game is otherwise good, but imagine how much better it would be in a proper turn based package.
Of course the trouble with DW and EU is that there is just too much to do/keep track of. Automation helps, as does simply playing enough to become completely familiar with all the nuances, but the problem becomes that if one finds the real time aspect too annoying or complex or whatever then one doesn't ever get to that point. For what it's worth, I really want to like DW, and am giving it a fair shake, but I do believe that eventually I'm going to dislike the real time aspect enough that I'll wind up shelving it, just like I did to EU2 (I never bothered with EU3 or HOI or any of those others for this reason).
And of course I don't understand why people who love the pausable real time think it's actually superior to a well designed turn based system, but to each their own.
[my feeling is that some people find it easier to deal with the messages when they come in a batch at the start of a turn, rather than when you feel as though you need to constantly be pausing the game to look at everything that pops up now and then, you may feel there is little difference, but again, it's a personal thing how people like to respond to 'events']
