Thx, I think that was very well explained.
I always wanted a different gameplay than Natve M&B and WB.
Too slow and boring...and predictable.
I mean....Talewords did a great Game (capital "C" was on purpose!
) and we all, Modders and Players, owe a lot to the main developers.
But after a while, u get used to many things...
Looters, for example, are always wimp and half naked, and troop trees are all very well "balanced" and predictable.
....and most Mods are ALL from Middleages or "medievalic" Fantasy, aren t they?
I wanted to make a
Musket era mod,
Single Player and HISTORICAL! ...but also...very "athmosperic" about the old frontier, the New World and....the great Indian Tribes that fought proudly and intensively, against the "Europeans"
And I don t see other Mods that have all that in one.
Hah! I have to say that I loved
Moe's intention to fight Europeans and their corrupted world, why not?!
I did the same, one time and had the Wild Frontier to overcome ALL the factions (ok, ok...I widely used the "Cannons" issues during battles...
) and was so much fun! ...even if so un-historical and barely possible...
1755 was my first Mod, and surely my biggest love.
And when I compare it to 1776 and now, to the huge 1860s, I kind of smile on its "rough" look and content...
But when I happen to play it (seldom lately) ...well, I feel so INSIDE" the game and the Old Frontier" that is so hard to quit.
...and it is so true what
Heathengel said: u need to let the mod to "work its magic".
Takes its time but I m glad many of u agreed that...is worth it!
Thx once again for the much affection and dedication that is given to me and to all the ppl that contributed in many ways to make this Mod....
I talked a lot today on this old mod and topic....and had a nice, strong feeling on the time spent on modding, foruming and sharing things and emotions with so many ppl, through the 2 years spent on TW Topics
Lov'ya all !
Gabby
PS ...I still miss special ppl like the wanderful Crumbs a lot and nothing of 1755 would be so good without his contribution.
Just felt to say that.
