Empire: Total Burnout?

**Sir Beane** · 12-28-2008, 23:32

These dreams about Empire seem to be quite common. It seems to me that CA must be using some sort of subliminal messaging technique in their screenshots or videos, I would stop watching them just in case.

On the day the game comes out millions of brainwashed fans will recieve the signal hidden in the opening cinematic and take up arms to march against the government and put the staff at CA on the throne.

Personally I think this is the most likely explanation for these dreams. I for one will not be fooled! Tinfoil hats all round to keep the brainwaves out! It's the only way!

Got me tinfoil on, now safe am I

The scary part is; for a game of the immense scope as this one, which was scheduled to be out in Fall, then February, now March. That there is really very little information concerning factions, units, or ships; even the official screenshots are very limited.

With only 60 days to go (minus weekends and yearend holidays), it seems almost improbable that the game can be finished and properly introduced in that amount of time. I will remain eternally optimistic, and forever encouraging, but even I am getting a bit nervous.

Even worst news; SEGA is coming out with another game in March 2009 also. “Stormrise” is a multi-platform fully 3D RTS, with “Join Anytime” multiplayer, by Creative Assembly. Need I say more?

Hope for the best (maybe join hands and sing a little), Empire will emerge, but you may have a bit more dreaming to do than has happened already…

Same old, but people will love it anyway. With all of its countless faults and bugs and imbalances, or perhaps exactly because of them.

!it burnsus!

Eh, you guys are freaks. I've never yet had a dream about ETW.

Are you making sure to wear your tinfoil hat and special hypnotic proof sunglasses? If so that's probably why. These guys all forgot theirs.

Just like any other TW game, you will burnout eventually. RTW took longer to burnout than M2TW, for me, so I hope ETW is even more addictive than ETW.

It has alot of potential and looks like a great game.
