Not one game is anything like Aces High III. Those games you call "cheap" really are, I agree. They just are not worth the price or the time.
AH III hardly requires a "great" PC .
The games that are free.... you are what is being sold.
I just didn't want to bring up our direct competition. I don't think that's classy and aces high doesn't need it.
But yes more games are released every half year which are cheaper and do the same stuff and maybe better. Except from the mmo standpoint which I think is what makes AH great.
Who is to say what's worth anybody's time or price. I know AH for me is worth the price. However every friend in the last 10 years I tried to introduce to the game. Said: " well no thank you. It's not worth 15 bucks a month."
And it's not only me saying this. The other week friends in-game came to me. "Dude have you seen that new game? It looks great and I think I am gonna buy it." They don't care about the forum, they will just leave and find a new home.
I am really sorry but this is what the reality really looks like. Everyone can say that I am wrong, but players are leaving over it. And I hate to see my home dying. My old squad once left the game for another and it kinda broke my heart. And I'll be dammed that I will let this happen again over some silly ignorance in our community.
I don't like to say this at all but it's a fact AH is getting behind the compatition and it's expensive.
