Just because you are a "gamer" doesn't mean all games will appeal, but I feel strategy RPG players are going to have an easier time coming into D:OS than gamers from say a WOW background.
I VERY VERY VERY strongly agree to that !
DOS is basically a slap into the frace of all of the mnodern Action-RPG lovers.
And it's good that it is so, becauuse DOS is one of the only and last remaining games to be NOT Action-RPGs ...
Because ... after so many gaming companies following the trail of money and copying Blizzard's models of gaming, 99 % of ALL computer-based role-??ying games ARE Action-RPGs nowadys ...
Blizzard and their followers (in the trail) has been overly efficient in fully eradicating EVERYTHING that is not an Action-RPG ...
So, meanwhile I#ve had my "really bad experiwences" as well, I'm actually GLAD i had them - because the game is teaching me. Harsh teaching. To be strict with planning ahead. Tell me that you'd need that in an Action-RPG and I'll laugh ...
