Amen to that!


Realistically, though, it's going to be at least several years before we might see another fantasy 4x from them. In addition, there's no telling whether it would be set in the same world or not (although personally, I hope so).

As it is, Stardock already has a number of games in the pipeline (such as GalCiv4 and Ashes 2) that have priority, since they're the ones that sell best. Even if a Fallen Enchantress sequel is planned, I can't imagine it would be out until sometime after 2025.

I'd love to be proven wrong, though. :)

They possibly keep their eye on Star Control: Origins(the most recent project of theirs) too, just saying.

We interviewed Derek Paxton for eXplorminate a few months back, and he dropped a hint that I interpreted as meaning there's another incoming 4x game under development that isn't GalCiv. What that is, I have no idea, but considering Stardock's dissatisfaction with how the Elemental games turned out and their chequered development history I wouldn't be surprised if they have another crack.

Big plus one on this... though honestly with the plethora of 4x space games released over the past 5 or 6 years, I'd love to see more fantasy 4x games come out. Just too few of those and for me, I've had my fill of sci-fi based ones.

I agree, but I really want to see something NEW, not more remakes of Master of Magic. There are some decent, original space 4x games that deviate significantly from Master of Orion, but Dominions aside there isn't half the innovation on display in fantasy 4x...

Wizards & Warlords just hit 1.0 though, that's worth a look and a bit different to the usual fare.

Thanks for the recommend on W&W... I'll take a look though it looks a little rougher than I like. Would love to see something closer to AA or AAA quality come out. =)

Agreed! We need a second game.

They would rather keep making sequels to space games since they probably feel there is more money doing that. If it is money u want just launch a kickstarter problem solved to launch a sequel to see who will back it instead of making endless space games that I have zero interest in and will never buy myself. I never bought Plantefall myself and never will because I do not like Sci Fi games. Xcom & Master of Orion was the only rare exception since I did play the original in the 90's but even then those are not my favorites. I prefer the fantasy theme over anything else.

I mean if Jeff Vogel from Spider Web Software can kick start a game called Queens Wish that looks like garbage from the 90s lol to raise a hoard of money why cannot Stardock since they obviously can make better looking visual games.

Divinity Original Sin and Pillars of Eternity, Wasteland 2 went the Kickstarter way I don't understand why Stardock cannot unless they lack the skill to setup a campaign or the desire to.

[BATTLEMODE]

I don't think Stardock really need to use kickstarter, they're a pretty successful company and it doesn't look good for money-making outfits like that to beg for money in advance for games.

[BATTLEMODE]

I gather there are some new things coming from Stardock, so might be interesting to see if anything "fantasy" 4x based is in the pipeline.

[Martok]

I believe one of Stardock's planned projects is a 4x that's *in addition* to GalCiv4. Here's hoping it's a new title set in the Elemental/Fallen Enchantress world...

[Ronnie]

Try saying that about Divinity Original Sin and Wasteland 2 they are successful companies as a result of utilizing ways to raise even more money regardless of how much they already have.

The company that made Wasteland 2 was already a successful company prior. I don't view it as begging it is a form of showing support sorta like how this thread was started a different kind of kickstarter message except Stardock won't get paid like they would if they launched a proper kickstarter campaign. It would actually boost their reputation as a even more successful company.

The main guy at Startdock says he is sorta like a one man army well a kickstarter would properly fund more talent to deliver a even better Fantasty 4x Stardock game. A proper sequel in my opinion honestly demands it to ensure enough money is raised to make it a worthwhile sequel.

The only company I would agree with would be Blizzard since they do not even have their games on steam at all and to me that is a real successful company so I guess steam makes the other companies that need steam a beggar company that sounds like the logic you just shared with me but said in a different way. You should think before you speak.

I wonder why they don't do it then? It's a MYSTERY lol
