    [​IMG] I highly doubt that was an accident. Do you think WC3 held off until NWN went gold to follow suit? I loved WC2 in it's day and many of the reviews for WC3 looked good. They did play around with the races a bit more this time then before. It will be interesting to see how it can stand up to the RTS game on the market now.

    I'll wait for the reviews and then buy it. NWN has first priority

    [​IMG] So Mollusken, WC3 is the reason you've placed "It's gone gold" as chatroom title, right?
    :evil: :p

    [​IMG] Meh!

    With good marketing you can sell cat piss as wine, sandpaper as silk, and a Blizzard game as a good game.

    Suffice to say, I won't be getting WCIII

    I don't know, I think the time of rts is long gone. It peaked somewhere around C&C Red Alert, and that was a few years ago after all... the last huge RTS success I can think of is Starcraft.

    ... then again, that was Blizzard too, who knows, personally I'm sick of RTS. It did get repetitive.
