Have you seen the new ad for Dom3?


I think many of you may be missing the fact that the ad is targetting pretty blond women that like to hang out in comfortable clothes and play PBEM strategy games. It is a viable demographic with plenty of discretionary income. As the forum soon fills with blond women we will hear "Bambi whipped my Ulm butt with her GOR Tartarian Monstrum" ... and the like.

That's what they should caption the ad with.

...!

Something just occurred to me, maybe this is an April Fool's prank.

But it went up yesterday, so if it is it fails at that as well as failing as an advert :]

Maybe it was supposed to say this (artwork inspired by cupido2):

That's exactly what I meant with my post, vfb. That's how the ad should be. When I look at it now, I want my Dominions 4! Give me my Dominions 4! I know you hide it somewhere KO! GIVE IT TO ME NOW!

Some people would look at that and think "lucky bogbeast!". I look at it and wonder where she's wearing her poison prot items.

I can feel nothing but sorrow for the bog beast. Look at the plaintive expression with which he gazes upon her! But she is bored, and is not interested in bog beast overtures. She is perhaps changing the channel on the TV with her remote control.


P.S. Sorry cupido2! Your post was what inspired me to add in the Bog Beast. Originally I just changed the number to 4. But it's much better with him in it I think! I've edited in credit for your idea.

It's obviously the garter of poison immunity she is wearing!

I admit to liking the ad a lot, but I'm a push-over for this kind of stuff. Gimme my cheesecake!

Concerning whether girls play Dom3: My ex-girlfriend got really into Dominions 3, and played a few MP games. She stopped playing when we split up though, I think she associated it too much with me.
