AJE Review and Mistake
Jim Cobb
Hi Jim, I'm not sure about the sentence 'Compared to earlier AGEOD games, Alea Jacta Est‘s graphics are awesome.' as it seems to imply poor graphics in earlier
games when I think the standard of graphics for games that I have played such as AACW and WiA are pretty high for the type of games they are - but I understand that you are saying that these are even better. The comment: '... although one wonders if Spartacus really looked like Kirk Douglas' is a bugbear with me as I always find it jarring when I see an out of place or recognisable face in the game. Some of the higher leaders appear to have a very modern look and are images of people associated with the game - there is even a leader with my face (which I am very thankful to have had made - but it doesn't really look right in the game). Most people probably don't have a problem with this I assume
A very interesting and well written review.
Cheers,
Chris
