Small but deep and polished
I haven't played D3 but I have played D2 and based on the screen shots the changes don't look revolutionary. Since many aren't familiar with the series, I'll share my thoughts on what it's like. D is a game for people who like to tinker with complex systems and watch how small changes can snowball into big ones. You start with a country that is saddled with a variety of conditions, such as the state of the economy, the quality of roads, general health and education of the population, as well as policies such as taxes, drug or alcohol prohibition, social welfare or immigration. The number of different components is astounding and all have the potential to affect one another. You also have your population made up of social groups, each with its own preferred agenda. The more you appeal to a groups ideology, the more support you get in elections. Lose an election and lose the game. But your policies can also cause a group to shift in population, so it's possible to make major social transformations over time. D tries to model accepted mainstream political and economic theory so there is a bias that might not appeal to you if you favor a more extreme view; however, D2 was moddable for anybody who wants to invest the time. The interface looks complicated but the mechanics are well streamlined. Once you understand how one "dot" works, you'll find that the all the others aren't so scarey. I like the series but I would wait for a price drop before purchasing.
