From a fisical standpoint it also makes good sense, since you will be able to receive small pay-offs from each part of the game engine prior to the production of the game itself. ]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://g-force.joeuser.com/article/145122</guid><link>http://g-force.joeuser.com/article/145122</link><pubDate>Fri, 04 Jul 2008 14:53:19 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-04T18:53:19</pubDateParsed><title>Hypostasis on Stardock Society</title></item><item><author>Yarlen</author><comments>http://g-force.joeuser.com/article/145122</comments><description><![CDATA[<P><div class="Article_Quote">I'd love to see more emphasis put on Society than has been</div> </P>
<P>Oh it's still being worked on in a way. The tools we'll need to make Society are being developed and used to make our other upcoming titles. It's kind of a chicken and the egg thing. <img onload="if(Sd.ImageResizer) Sd.ImageResizer.createOn(this);" src="http://images.stardock.com/tgNET/smiles/Wink.gif" border=0 align="absmiddle"></P>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="True">http://g-force.joeuser.com/article/145122</guid><link>http://g-force.joeuser.com/article/145122</link><pubDate>Fri, 04 Jul 2008 14:53:19 -0400</pubDate><pubDateParsed>2008-07-04T18:53:19</pubDateParsed><title>Yarlen on Stardock Society</title></item><item><author>FarAway Galciv</author><comments>http://g-force.joeuser.com/article/145122</comments><description><![CDATA[It's always sad when an anticipated title doesn't come out, or doesn't come out as soon as I had hoped.<br/><br/>Frankly, the StarDock guys and gals have done a good enough job with the stuff I've seen them release that I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, in terms of their prioritization decisions and such.  <br/><br/>Stardock is privately owned, so they don't release annual reports or such, but I'm pretty sure that, even with the commercial success of GalCiv2 and now Dark Avatar, they're primarily focused on their desktop-enhancement stuff (Windows Blinds, etc.).
