Dreamlords: Resurrection News - Reawakening Dev Journal

Posted by Jon Wood on May 12, 2008  | 4 comments in our forums

When Dreamlords announced that they would be returning with Dreamlords: The Reawakening, MMORPG.com wanted to get the behind-the-scenese dirt. Dreamlords: The Reawakening Lead Designer Iona Rosin gives us her thoughts on the upcoming game.

Designing and balancing a MMORTS with long term strategy elements must be one of the hardest works of all time. Well, that’s how I’ve felt the last half a year anyway. There are so many factors to consider, so many numbers and complex systems that somehow must work together. I believe structure and dynamic systems are essential because there will always be modifications, small as well as big. Always, over and over again.

I simply love Dreamlords.  I've watched(and semi-played) the game since it's first launch back in February 2007, and though there were so many lacking points, the Re-Awakening is pwning.

I am finding the new game a lot of fun.  There is reppition right now, but since this is beta there will be more along the way.  i really like that I can check up on my research while I am at work and make changes, something I always wanted to do in Eve.  I say give this game a little time to flesh out some more and it will be a solid RTS.
