Default Re: Will there be a Dominions 4

The developers have said that they are driven by fun. Dominions 3 is setup so that it can expand what it has fairly easily. But most of a "Dominions 4" would involve rewriting much of the game from the beginning. Thats not much fun.

From an interview that Illwinter did...
Quote:

Saving the most obvious question for last: Is Dominions 4 the next Illwinter project?

Changes, add-ons and patches for Dom3 first. There are lots of ideas that could be implemented in later expansions for Dom3.
What will happen later we don't know yet. It would be fun to make another type of game, to start from scratch.
But it will be hard not to think in terms of Dominions. Perhaps an RPG in the Dominions setting, RTS Dominions, Dominions SPACE, I don't know.
And a long interesting thread that was sparked off by that comment.
We love you Illwinter but..
