Today, we are having an interview with SirDanider - one of the oldest players in eBulgaria. Enjoy and do not forget to subscribe!

Tell us a bit about yourself. Who is SirDanider both in-game and outside the game?

Well in the game right now I am just working. In the first phase of eDominations I was one of the most active players – multiple time CP, PM and MoD of BG, took a lot of HQ positions in alliances and lead such on multiple occasion. Based on the past I can describe myself as a player with political and geopolitical focus. In RL I am living in a small, really beautiful town, I work in digital marketing sphere right now and I am as much interested in RL politics and gepolitics as I am in the games.

When did you first discover eDominations, and what drew you to the game?

It was long time ago, but I think it was when the original owners of eDominations left the team of a game they were part of managing and created this one. I decided to follow them here, we organized a good sized Bulgarian group and the adventure started.

What keeps you motivated to stay involved in the game after so many years?

Well I have some not so little pauses playing eDominations and other games. What makes me stay or return when I leave is the people I play with and the moments of hitting together. This was, is and will always be a genre of games that is based on team play and on the social element, no matter how much big tanks and VISAs there are.

You’ve achieved high-level status in eDominations. What were the key milestones in your journey?

Eh, I don’t think eDominations is the game where I achieved something exceptional that other players didn’t. My big moments were related to reviving Bulgaria on a few occasion, turning it back from the dead, my participation in AEGIS and Phalanx alliances and specifically the first Indian war that was against China and AA.

The game went through tough times when it was abandoned. Why did you choose to stay instead of quitting like many others?

Well actually I didn’t stay. I am on of the first people to leave before the game went into inactivity state. The reasons for my departure were related to another thing though. It was one group of very strong players, who I believed had too much control over the game, but no one was wanting to fight against them at that moment. So I decided to leave, instead of play like a hypocrite.

What is your personal opinion about the current political situation in eBulgaria? How does it compare to previous eras?

The current political situation is stable, the guys that stayed around developed a system that works for them. Now that many Bulgarians are returning, some adaptation will be needed. As for the comparaions to the past, it’s normal state. Bulgaria is kind of a stable country politically and militarily. Besides the era of Viribus Unitis and Lunx, which situated us as one of the top countries back then.

How do you see the relationships between eBulgaria and other nations evolving in the near future?

I am not sure yet, as I am back from few days. I think that the game in general is not really active in political and geopolitical sense. With the return of more people I expect this to change, but for now I can’t give much comments and thoughts.

If you were to predict eBulgaria’s position by the end of 2024, where do you think we’ll stand in terms of alliances, economy, and influence?

We are going to be one of the stronger countries in the game, but I don’t think we can turn into a top country that fast. We will need some time for some of our players to catch up.

If you could change one thing about eDominations, what would it be and why?

It’s not a change. It’s more of a call to not change. Back then when we played edominations actively, the most important reason was that the game offered the best balance between f2p and p2w players from all possible games in the genre. So I would like to ask admins to not go further from the monetization policy that was already implemented in the game. It offered a lot of opportunities to spend in the game, without destroying the gameplay of f2p players.

What message would you like to send to your fellow players in eBulgaria and the wider eDominations community?

Invite back each player that you know from the past. Try to collect gold and catch up on strength if you need it. The first weeks of the new eDominations era are going to be slow, but I am positive that the game will be back to its old fame sooner than later.

Special thanks to SirDanider for the first interview after many years.
