Barbarian Invasion - updated FAQ

[Fenrhyl]

CA is a game company and they must sell thir games (in great numbers) in order to thrive. This said, as far as i know, historicall accuracy does NOT sell.

Why ? Because most people are not interested in that. Period. I feel it's a shame, i'd like it to be another way (partly because history has much to teach us) but it is a fact that can be hardly worked around.

I guess we should be happy with a game that allows players to modifiy it so that they can turn it to the kind of game they'd like to play.

Now, this said, i am sure there is a way to be historically accurate and fun. Perhaps EB will do the trick; i hope so.

The EB release notice is going to have a nice jab at CA regarding this, right at the top. I promise.

In my humble opinion, this won't lead anywhere but to more lack of understanding between you and them. Perhaps a well rounded "opened letter" to CA explaining how hard, unfair and ridiculous their statement is and asking why they allowed themselves this low blow to their most dedicated fans would be more efficient. This could be published on most (if not every) fan site to maximize its impact.

Making people feel guilty is better than kicking them in the balls.
