First Hours and what I think so far...

Post by reddog000 »

To start I would like to thank Slitherine and the devs for making this game and allowing me to test it out. Thanks!

Downloaded installer fine. Ran into a couple of issues while downloading and installing. Had to download twice because the first download failed and then after restarting it began the download at the very beginning again :( Download got stuck on file 1298 both times? Then after waiting quite a long time I ended up closing the second download (installer said it was on file 1298). So thinking I had to try a third download I clicked the installer and the game booted up. The installer messed up somehow. I did not even realize the game was even finished installing.

Made some changes in the options screen and immediately started my first game. I did not find anything wrong with gameplay or graphics wise so far. There are a few spots where clicking the mouse seems very redundant or not needed but other than that I have found nothing wrong.

As for the gameplay and design...I love these types of games and have since the mid 80's...the gameplay and design are what I would expect from this genre. There are a few graphical things I would change but those are more personal preference. Anyways, will play some more tomorrow and be able to give some more feedback if needed.

PS - You sure you guys at Slitherine did not play the game's Elemental: War of Magic, Fallen Enchantress, or Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes released by Stardock??? Pandora is pretty much a mirror image of Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes. The only difference being one is Fantasy themed while Pandora is Sci-fi themed. This is not a bad thing though! I believe Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes might be the best TBS Fantasy game ever created :)

Keep up the great work! Love the game!!!

While Slitherine is hosting the beta test and I think will help in game distribution, the actual developers are a group called Proxy Studios based mainly, I believe, in Germany.

You sure you've played other strategy games? They all use similar ideas, doesn't mean they are rip offs. The Elemental games are hardly unique, Legendary Heroes is an incredible game, but it takes ideas from many, many different games.
