$500,000 mark surpassed by SEIV

Hurragh!

And, Atrocities, what decided ME to actually get ahold of SE4/Gold was, this forum, and the community here.

Lots of other games have fan-made mods or maps; lots of other games have websites or the like where ou can go to find opponents, or games to join, and so on.

But IME, very few games have the sort of supportive, welcoming-to-newbies community SE4 has built.

The mods, those are nice. The ability for even a computer-almost-illiterate end-user like myself to work at MAKING their own mod, with a hope in hell of completing the project, helps. Having a site like PBW helps. The dedicated, ongoing support of the game's publisher and designer helps a lot.

...

But they all take a definite backseat to the simple, basic existence of such a wonderful, friendly, helpful, just-fun-to-become-part-of COMMUNITY like this one.
