Official wish list for King's Bounty 2

[onepiece]

@ckdamascus; yeah they should just scroll all the 4 scrolls (XD) at once since you can see them, not just 1 at a time. More spaces for reserves is also appreciated.

I would also like to ask for description on how the abilities and spells evolve (level 1-3). There's a mod that does it so it shouldn't be that difficult and there wouldn't be any need for a mod when the game ships (so no waiting to know if it's useful to develop something just to see it wasn't so good).

their next game will be an MMO due out in 2012. what a major disappointment after 3 excellent KB games. guess they decided to go after the $ instead.

In a weird way, I am sort of glad. I lose waaay too much time with this game.

This is sort of a nifty penultimate end for an excellent genre. Too bad we couldn't add all the nifty adjustments we always wanted.

The graphics look nice, but an MMO is an MMO, so for me that's a no go.

Hopefully HoMM VI will be good enough to satisfy my turn-based strategy craving.

Well, it was good while it lasted, I guess.

Anyway, I wish them luck on the uber-overcrowded MMO market.

"We consider the future of games to be in the MMO genre."
bullshit. Biggest lie. WE want money and that's where most come from would be a better statement.

Single player games will always exist. I have no pleasure playing against a human opponent nor mood (most times). But I'm sure one day we will see KB2.

Is it the biggest lie? Maybe just a little misleading. If people are willing to spend more money there, then clearly there is a sizable market of players there. Even if the ratio is an average MMO Player generating 2 times more than a single player, you still need the basic numbers to make it worth while. Whereas the most hardcore of MMO players will spend far more than the average single player, you got weird dudes like me who is willing to buy this game as a downloadable and rebuy it as a retail copy.

In short, as single player lovers, we are probably in the minority now

Once enough MMO's flop (you'd figure they would realize that by now, but they claim they want to break into the Diablo-esque niche), we should hopefully see another type of game return, hopefully turn based, but it really could be anything.

Would be nice to see more high end turn based strategy games come back. But hey, remember the first King's Bounty was released over 20 years ago. I just hope we don't have to wait another 20 years for King's Bounty 2.
