Morgoth Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I've yet to play any of the Homeworld games. Have they aged gracefully? Rain makes everything better.
RPGmasterBoo Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I've yet to play any of the Homeworld games. Have they aged gracefully? Depends. HW2 is quite playable from a visual stand point. However the single player campaign is crap. HW1 is an artistic masterpiece. Even though its all blocky today, it still has aesthetics which are perfectly matched with what its trying to accomplish. Its also very elegantly animated. The soundtrack is mindblowing. As far as I am concerned no game set in space, new or old is on the same visual (and aural!) level as Homeworld 1. To top that it has a masterfully told hard sci fi storyline (be sure to read the manual), that conveys tremendous emotion - without a single person in it. You owe it to yourself to play HW1.

Calax Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Actually Relic is working on CoH:O and Space Marine. I do pray for a HW3, but then I also pray for a Z.O.E. 3... Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
RPGmasterBoo Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Actually Relic is working on CoH:O and Space Marine. That's exactly what I said, didn't you read my post? Those are not really big projects or as bigger than Relic can handle. After all, the first one is not much more than an expansion.

Calax Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 you said CoH asian versions. Online is going to be for US too. That said, you forgot Dawn of War 2 (which just had an expansion released this year and another slated for next year). Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
Bos_hybrid Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Homeworld 3. Relic reacquired the license in 2008 and its been hinted that its in the making. CoH is petering out, and the only game officially in development other than CoH (asian versions) is Space Marine. For a studio like Relic that's too little. This tells me that they're working on something in secret. Okay, they can't repeat the magic of the original. It was always a stand alone title, a combination of (almost accidental) things that's impossible to repeat. I'm not even expecting them to. What I want is a decent story and a new graphics engine to see all those ships in their full glory.

HoonDing Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 Buffy MMO? I think you mean The Secret World. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Tale Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 Nobody's going to notice that he mentions Twilight MMO? "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Tale Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 He? Violetta sounds female-ish. Default internet pronoun. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Labadal Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 I still wish my F:NV copy would arrive, pre-ordered it 3 months before release and still no game. Other than that, I decided to pre-order Two Worlds II on PS3. It will be interesting for sure. I do fear technical issues, but I really have liked everything I have seen so far. I have a feeling this will not be a "meh game". It's probably going to be love or hate.

Thorton_AP Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 He? Violetta sounds female-ish. Sounds like the name of a dog
HoonDing Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Looks more like an ogre to me. Trolls are supposed to be big and hairy. And you can only kill them permanently with fire. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
entrerix Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 can you drown a troll? Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game. I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.

Tale Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 can you drown a troll? Ever heard of a sea troll? Water only makes things worse. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
