One of my biggest regrets about older vs newer games is the learning curb... Homeworld is one of those games with a masterpiece story AND truly exciting / immersive gameplay, but you need to be prepared to spend a significant time-frame learning the system, meaning you'll probably fail over and over if you're playing it for the first time. The KZbin algorithm rewards views and likes, so content creators don't have any incentive to play harder, slower-developing games to completion. I understand it, it's just unfortunate T^T

As per the last commenters factoid drop, this game would definitely have been inspired by Dune as a story, and not the other way around because Dune is sixty years old - but you make an interesting point that the NEW movie retellings of Dune have a feeling that this game also gives off. Here is what I think it is: SOUND DESIGN! Both this game and that movie have heavily inspirational sound design. It's not just in the music, but the timing and the use of the music, the little sounds... both are very fine examples of how important sound can be to telling a story. Something tells me Villaneuve played this game and made certain to find sound engineers for the new Dune that could recreate the feeling it gave off. I'm gonna go see if I can find out!

the remastered has a scaled difficulty system, so the more ships you have, the more the enemy has for each mission. the person playing here, is deliberately keeping his fleet tiny, so that the enemy fleet composition is itself also tiny, making it significantly easier to get through. if you play the remastered version exactly the same as the original, that battle where they throw an asteroid at you is insanely difficult, because the enemy literally throws hundreds of frigates, and around 40 cruisers and 90 destroyers at you. it really becomes difficult late game if you have a huge fleet.

As a fan that played when the game first came out I must say I didn't really appreciate how HW2 retconned much of the backstory. For Example at 44:40 they say that the Hyperdrive was reverse engineered from the Khar-Toba. But in Homeworld 2 its stated that the took the Khar-Toda's far jump drive and stuck it on the Mothership contradicting dialogue from the first game. Does it ruin the gameplay any? in the grand scheme of things, no but it still messes with continuity.
