Was watching a Jebus Cross game and an idea came to mind regarding spectacle. What if we changed the format of watching games to a shortened, post-factum one. Create a mod (or improve an existing one) so that it automatically takes screenshots of important events (hero leveling up, building construction in town), and then stitches all of this into a video sequence.
This would reduce the time spent on movement, battles, cursor-waving across the monitor, and most importantly, the opponent's turn. Of course, a ton of information about the specifics of a particular battle and such would be lost, but some sacrifices have to be made.
+ I think that adding this kind of digest to game reports would greatly improve them.
