As I mentioned over at SPWaW Depot, I think I have been saddened once to often to witness a lot of good forum traffic go up in smoke.
The forums have collectively been plagued with an assortment of every trouble possible it seems.
Early beta software, or evolving software, or the hack, or just random forum interruption of availability.
When I joined, the place was just Steel Panthers, and as such was a lot smaller, and I guess a lot easier to keep an eye on.
Today, the forums seem to have grown bigger than it appears can be readily maintained. That might be grossly off target, but I am just expressing my opinion of what I have been seeing.
For what seems 2 or more years now, all I have ever really wanted was Combat Leader to take over the position occupied by Steel Panthers in my life.
I even bought an upgrade to video card in anticipation to playing it. I never upgrade just to play games basically.
Today, Matrix Games is a name connected to many endeavours, some big, some small. Some a major success, and some perhaps a bridge to far.
In the final analysis, I have already got too many wargames to play. That goes for board games as well as computer games.
I have seen that some designs look incredible, while others merely look like a modern looking version of more of the same.
But how many wargames does a wargamer need, before they have the ability to realistically wargame out everything they could care about?
I am likely going to be dropping back, and considering my own situation, and maybe start concentrating on small site forums that are more specific game focused. And potentially more managable as such.
Going to cut and past this post too I think. It is getting wearisome saying things, and then next week finding out its all lost.
