Maybe they could learn from this game's mistakes and make Dawn of War 4

Starcraft really needed real scale, and maybe simulated projectiles next? (That can hit obstacles instead of all of them being homing missiles.) Could be a good idea for Starcraft 3

I think it would be cool to see Relic do a Korean War or even Vietnam game. The scale they're going for, roughly company-sized units (whoa, weird) facing off, would be perfect for Vietnam. Also, I'm surprised you didn't mention the North Africa campaign. In my opinion, that was the highlight of the game, which is sad considering how short it is.

The community made maps/missions are way better than the ones that came with the game and the dlc.

I really hope this video has done well bc this is actually a massively thought out video beyond the focus on the actual gameplay he has to describe going on.

Ahh, I am not the only one with Dog issues. Good to know.

What a cool ass video. I love the way you explain and review essentially every mechanic and unit in the game through the narrative of going through the missions. Also i totally get why Rexxar's adventure only gets about a minute of the video. Its long as hell, its not really relevant, and the video is already huge. But man, I'd love to see something on that at some point. I think its fascinating to see all thr proto-WoW stuff, the quests, the way they reuse enemies and creeps to make special enemies with sizing and coloring and mixing abilities. Theres some really interesting mechanics throughout, and i love the scale, starting as a random guy in the desert, playing detective about the human attacks. Then gathering different forces together through different missions before the final all out assault on Jaina's dad. Also the choice to just play the final cutscene in full, chefs kiss

Illidans crime was in the manual, I read it several times. Well the one he gets imprisoned for.

gaming DLC and "early access" killed gaming in general. personally f*** relic and blizzard, greedy mfers

Pretty sad reading the comments from losers here who don't know how to block ads in 2024 yet lol

why would "real scale" only have like a 4 meter range on a marine's gun

Love this age of game so much i stil hope for a remake

Release this game for XBOX game pass already pleeaassseeeeee!!!

The Warcraft CK3 mod is amazing.

lot of people were also not fond of the "cartoonish" esque graphics and the pg tier voicelines

How do you manage to release a game and make it worse than the literally half-finished CoH 2 from 10 years ago?

The yamato gun is marked with a ¥.

I thought their was an Axis Campaign?

Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

Before i continiue past 4:20. Didnt they do that in coh 2, i dont remember it right

Loved CH1 and CH2. I preorder CH3 and played it for a grand total of 13 minutes. Absolute trash game. Never been so disappointed. Luckily I still love playing CTA: Gates of Hell.

i can only think about nebulous fleet command sorry

Honestly I'll stick to CoH2 for the sounds and the graphics. Sure CoH3 has better QoL changes but CoH2 just has more to offer plus mods. these mods shows that this game can take many directions. Want something out of wolfenstein and wacky stuff? try The Advanced Powers Want more historic realism? try Spearhead or Wikinger Want insane micro'ing and ultimate realism? try Kriegspiel In the mood for some cold war scenarios? try The Unthinkable War Something niche and not widely covered by the west? try Forgotten Ally - China or Imperial Japanese Army Also I think for unit variety in 16:25 can be solved by introducing more factions and theaters of war like the pacific, Scandinavia, the eastern front (again), and the balkans in similar fashion of the allied dlc CoH2 (and maybe make it free if possible) and maybe remaster the old stuff from earlier games. (or maybe keep all this for a new game _call it Army of Heroes_ )

Honestly ? I can take another ww2 game. Problem is the new company of heroes looks horrible. Look at mods like Europe at war or blitzkrieg to see the true potential

Well I think you are spot on about stormgate failing for all the reason you mentioned in the video you made some time ago.

Wtf did I wake up to? I fell asleep to audit the audit video about police brutality how I get here and why has it already been going for over 2 hrs

If they dont want to change wars why not do the samething that the c&c red alert series did a own timeline. That way they change up some units to make fresh or new enough still have enough of the same mechanics working for them, while even able to create a new story with their own vision without being stuck in the story that history already made

Will Wings of Liberty Real Scale get its capital ships to be updated to be like Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void?

Honestly, when coh3 came out i was sceptical about it.. i wrote a negative review That game doesn't have no hope, no proper content...but when they release the first dlc...I know they are slowly improving from time to time, about balance yes they keep updated. They fix ui, graphics, perform and now this year they announced being independent. I hope the improving

i mean, split of sega and relic does give me a small glimmer of hope, a hope of redemption, a hope for RETRIBUTION perhaps DoW IV?

This is so impressive 😮. This must have taken so long to make and edit. 👍👍👍👍

You know, they wanted to make a game that was "more like CoH1". In which case you're already doing things wrong if you basically want to make a decent game that already exists. They also ended up with something in between CoH1 and the carpfest that is CoH2. At least they proceeded to do one good thing, which is introduce the new setting of Italy. So far you have the recipe for a pointless sequel that in terms of setting could be interesting enough for fans, if you at least deliver a game of acceptable quality. But of course, we can't have things of acceptable quality. What is shocking to me is that so many core parts of the game are very far away from acceptable quality. Just... just look at the UI. How is that acceptable for any game, let alone a strategy game? If a development team can't even design a proper UI, then please, go back to the drawing board and make sure you get the right people for the job and not one intern from your local media college who wants to give it a go. The strategic map gameplay comes across as if no thought was put behind it and just exists to say there is another level of gameplay. Like, if you do that kind of strategic map gameplay, you either go full 4X, you go full Total War to make it meaningful or you make it as complex as Hearts of Iron with ridiculous management. CoH wouldn't need either of these elements, it's an RTS game. If you don't get the RTS part right, don't even bother obfuscating it with some strategic map nonsense. As for the gameplay, I mean, it's Company of Heroes gameplay... but all of its flaws shine through. You point out quite a fair amount of them, but you go way too soft on the AI incompetence/cheats. Specifically 12:23 -- no, it is not! All they have been doing since CoH1 is use an AI that isn't smart, but gets significantly more resources than you do to spam units. It's not fun to play against. Developers who cannot code AI to compete at a basic level with players try to cheat that part of development by just creating spam AI to frustrate players and waste your time. It's not even challenging because in all the CoH games this means you either build a defense that the AI cannot overcome, you rush specific builds that can overpower them early so you can stay ahead or you find exploits in their behaviour to cheese them. That's it. Imagine playing chess with an incompetent chess AI that doesn't have a clue what it's doing but it gets five times the amount of pieces (they may just instantly replace it) to make up for it. Also no offense, but for all the other missing vehicles: please see CoH1 and its various mods. Not CoH2. Don't force people to grind for years (or shell out money?) for more companies. CoH2 is carp.

You do know that Warcraft is a direct copy of warhammer after GW didn’t wanna give them the rights to make a game for there IP…

Relic WW1 RTS??, now that is something i want to see

A very interesting scenario. There's one aspect I either didn't notice or wasn't focused on. If Kerrigan learns about the logistics network the Empire needs to function before or around the first encounter with Tarkin, she could use a longer deception. She can get the details from captured logistics officers and computers in fallen bases or ships. Having the Zerg play a "defeated bug species" while infestations are smuggled to various logistics planets in the Midrim. Use them to transfer infestations or even larvae onto shuttles bound for ISDs, or even have some travel to the core worlds. Within half a year, there is a good chance that 10% or more of the ISDs can be turned into floating tombs by infecting everyone on board in a man vs. bug skirmish without fancy empirical war machines, rendering the fleet ineffective from the mass outbreak. In StarWars, many developments take place over the course of several months, placing such a strategy within the realm of possibility, and Kerrigan is a master at switching between covert sneak attacks and full-scale invasions. It would be interesting to see how the Empire reacts to such a blow to its coordination and supply chains. From that point on, it would be an all-out war.

Sometimes I reflect on GGG sending hundreds of Zealots to helplessly die to the swarm in the last mission, refusing to build Scouts out of contempt for them as bad units, and I think... good.

tu é lunático bicho .... Mais de 30 saves, 500 repetições, eu teria desistido na primeira ..... Só maluco pra fazer algo assim

Classic undercooked game. They made the DLC then made the game

Skill trees are in company of heroes one. It's not a new feature

Any game which releases with DLC is just cutting off core features out of pure greed. Is disgustingly greedy

@2:16 wait I can just walk around and win battles without fighting?? In a COH game?

I love Relic and Company of Heroes, but the moment I saw the campaign map I knew it was gonna suck.

You totally lost me at Stratholm being a bad mission.

The building interactions are brilliant

“Oh god, a supply depot!” Hahaha thanks for the laugh

I have no words to describe how grateful I am for this video. Warcraft 3 is my childhood and it literally shaped my life path because of what I learned in this game. I haven't touched WC3 since Reforged happened but hearing what Blizzard did to the game is really saddening, but the original game was made with care and love and you explained quite well how that is so.Thank you so much for this retrospective.

finally Age of Mythology is back .

3 minutes in and Grant is praising the Scout, this is clearly a baby run.

23:54 made me LOL 😂

:)
