Never liked stack o doom.
Wasn't too fond of spies either.
Gotta admit I used religion as a weapon.

Rising Sun, when I mentioned graphics, I was speaking from an artistic perspective, not a software vs hardware angle.

"Graphically limited", as in ugly. I also consider tiles ugly. I deliberately shunned all of the Strategic Command 2 series due to the tiles. I didn't care a hoot how the game was as software, it was repulsive looking. Very glad hexes returned.

Ah I see, sorry didn't get that earlier. There are some games are pretty good from GoG, alpha centauri. That game is must have. Bring back good memories playing that one and you can even play one of those alien too.

Yes they can be ugly, try not think of how today graphics is. If you can do that and stick with it, can enjoy it a lot more out of it.

Yeah I have Alpha Cent. Runs great on my Win10 system. One of my old favorites is Deadlock (Accolade). I pull it out a couple times a year and play it.

You think? Try some tile RPGs made with RPG Maker. Compared to those, The Settlers (a.k.a. Serf City: Life is Feudal) is still a beautiful game.
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

Also forgot to mention that I have Call to Power II as well from GoG, even have the box version and not a bad civ game. Too bad they never really improve this game after that one.

I wonder what Steam is going to do with game streaming projects from Microsoft, Google and Amazon. How is Matrix/Slitherine going to react to this development?
