we really need a new Castles game. Last one came out in 92 or so. And the last Dungeon Keeper came out in 99 or 2000 or somewhere along those lines.

I guess Minecraft will have to do.

Oh, and the castle building portion of NWN 2 wasnt even close to fulfilling.

I think a new stronghold game is on the horizon but it looks like what a lame warcraft III knockoff would have been if it were released 10 years ago

Stronghold 3 was interesting, but 1 and 2 were fun

There's Stronghold 3 coming out. It's a true castle-building sim. I really hope it's a worthy successor to the first one (which came out around 2000).

Edit: took too long to click on the Post Reply.... :)

IIRC, it was a few months back that a new dungeon keeper style game came out. I can not check the name of it as this internet connection has a filter against "game sites".

Funny, I was just thinking about this the other day, recalling playing Interplay's Castles II.

They did make a successor to Dungeon Keeper recently, "Dungeons." Reactions appeared mediocre so I've avoided getting it.

I downloaded the demo of Dungeons a few weeks back, absolutely mediocre rip-off of Dungeon Keeper. None of the personality of the original (or sequel), and a ridiculous resource system: put all of your gold in a treasure room right by the entrance to your dungeon, then make sure your monsters magically get to the heroes that enter and steal your gold, kill the heroes, then collect the soul energy released from the heroes that they gained because they were super happy to collect your gold...wut?
