Don't worry, you havent. I was being pedantic about the spelling of my name. But not pedantic enough to point out that I also spell it with a lowercase "s", opps

yeah, I've given up on pointing out that it's "deject" not "Deject" a long time ago. "DEJECT
!!!" is acceptable though.

And from what I gather Dog Pants, this is the format for most RTS games, and is the reason I can't be bothered with them. I used to like them quite a lot, but the sheer repetitivness of single player games and the boredom of repeatedly losing multiplayer ones by such large margins means I doubt I'll be splashing out on this one.
Well, I find a lot of RTS's over-complicate stuff (warcraft 3 I'm looking at YOU!) and I don't find building a base and gigantic army tedious or boring so I am going to have a ball.

That's not really such a bad thing. Once you get past the rock paper scissors thing and start using real tactics; or something. Either way it's ace.

I fail to see how any FPS is better? It's just point-and-click.

Oops, I left that a bit ambiguous didn't I. Those were the reasons I loved it
, not criticism.
