Oh my god, yes that is perfectly how you describe the game, they looked at the first and went, yes it needs to look and sound good and went with that, but forgot the most important part, the narrative. It looks good, it sounds good, some of the missions are very good set piece battle, but the narrative and story are just so bland and uninspired.

You have no idea how much it hurt my younger self to go through this netflix drama level of a story...and after that my carriers have no subsystems, I cannot use carriers to dock ships and jump behind enemy lines to make cool plays. A lot of games are disappointing these days, but this...this one truly hurt...

Oof, that's something I completely forgot about and didn't even try now…

[@NoobRaven]

@@Smaxx You can dock strikecraft in carriers, just have to switch to no auto launch option...but I mean other than a quick repair whats the point? I am a huge fan of Star Lancer, played the shit out of it when I was a kid. I always used to roleplay HM2 with different carriers having their squadrons of fighters and bombers protecting them, jumping from hyperspace into battles and stuff...The thing is HM3 looks awesome, I love the PDC gatling cannons that some ships have, imagine having a deep subsystem option for capital ships where you can build carriers to be production facilities or spec them into being more of a firing platform with even torpedo launchers or something, docking strikecraft and jumping on an unprotected position, launching strikecraft to engage smaller fast movers while carriers move into position to fire. God I'm such a nerd for that stuff, and I cant have it in HM3 because they literally googled homeworld and based a game off of that

[@Smaxx]

@@NoobRaven Haven't found the time to put any amount of time in the game so far (played the tutorial in the beta and tried a few war games matches). If the carrier can't hyperspace jump on its own it's obviously pointless to dock units, unless this might somehow protect them from harm (while the carrier still magically survives).

Why is everything we grew up with so disappointing now? Literally, everything. Blizzard Entertainment, Star Wars, Call of Duty, Halo, Battlefield, Total War, and now Homeworld.

It got people used to staying home and getting into pc/console games. Where before it was kinda niche. Today we are overwhelmed with too much content. It's hard to workout which game to even play because we have a huge list of games all the time to choose from and many of them have learning curves to get through before you even know if you like them. Time goes so fast and it's hard to take time with so much content out there everywhere all the time. Growing up is not always great though as it gets harder to appreciate things, we see so much fall by the wasteside while new stuff constantly replaces the old.

Since the people who did BSG Fleet Commander are doing BSG and Expanse mods for Homeworld 3, I'll wait for a sale when either of those mods are out and can let me mess with the roguelike mode. Running a single Battlestar to survive multiple waves with what you have from that one carrier is basically the premise for the first season of the reimagined series and it would make for the closest experience to getting an official BSG RTS. BSGO was really fun, but you couldn't run a fleet like in the shows. Also X4 had a couple mods that add ships from BSG, so there's some options even though they're limited to some extent since you'll be fighting Xenon instead of Cylons and all the capital ships BSGO gave them.

[@andrewboyer7544]

I preordered this games collectors when it first announced. The originals were in my top favorite games ever. I picked up Stellar Blade on a whim the week before this came out. Imagine my surprise when SB turned out a masterpiece and this was immeasurably disappointing.

[@Dirt1061]

Lots of delays for this, all for a handful of maps etc. I wish I liked the game more. It feels so close, but they missed the bullseye. Hardpart is the original games and remaster are just more feature rich games. This is not just preference, but these older games have more buttons, longer tech trees, more ship variety, etc. Also this game was fully funded by Gearbox, then they took more money from the community through Fig. So money really should not have been an issue.

[@Battlecry17]

Not to mention, the biggest thing of all, the Remastered and old games had much better controls and responsive UI. HW3 is missing important selection commands, like being able to make a subselection of units from a bandbox selection, making micromanagement especially of strikecraft is a real chore.

[@volfegan]

This reminded of how past games could do stuff well, but the new versions of them with better graphics are not. Like on Mechwarrior 3 and 4, where battlemechs could be knockdown by being shot too hard, or they limb when one leg is severyly damaged, but in Mechwarrior 5 some 20 years later, they are immortal stand machines with perfect balance, no matter if shot by nuclear arsenals.

Eh, it kinda scratches the itch. But there are a lot of drawbacks. I know that it was Relic's dream to implement megastructures to create a 3D space that isn't empty but they went WAY overboard and now it's a 3D strategy in a plane. They attemtped to recreate some missions from HW1 - Diamond Shoals, but it came out stupid as you can't just fly up and avoid the whole thing for reasons. And the narrative REEKS of Sweet Baby Inc... You are up against Space Hitler on steroids, but end up holding hands... Facepalm.

[@DZ-X3]

To be fair, HW2 felt like an attempt to bring back 2D terrain-based warfare from a more traditional RTS. Camera panning across the plane of the battlefield, instead of the original focus system. After the HW2-based remaster, it's not surprising.

When we first got to hear about this a couple of years back, I couldn't stop talking about how excited I was, how this is really just hitting all the right notes and that I'm ready to just immerse myself into the homeworld universe. The first model I ever did in 3D was the bentusi ship from homeworld 1. As we drew closer I started to feel disconnected, something was off and my subconscious was trying to tell me something. After some worrying statements by devs over at gearbox with regards to consumer rights and the gamer community I decided to hold off on buying the game. It seems that was the right choice, it is sad to see that this icon of my early adulthood has been smeared by people who just see another vector to make a quick buck.

The one issue i think that has caused this is the crazy terrain. It looks nice, but the pathing really makes it just a pain. The open feeling of space in Homeworld most of the time is lost here. The typical fly through asteroid field mission felt pathetic this time for me and was very frustrating. I could literally see that if my ship flew straight UP I could leave the field with minimal damage, but that was not really an option.

I've been there, too. Played Homeworld 1, Homeworld 2, and Cataclysm (and later Deserts of Kharak). Now we get this. Visually it's stunning, but gameplay and story… meh… at least they tried with the classic control options etc. but it just doesn't click with me. And I'm still not sure about the pure focus on a roguelike game mode live service instead of also expanding regular multiplayer… So I don't feel like I should reward this delivery as much as I enjoyed the original games. Also, if you haven't look up "Homeworld: Vast Reaches". It's a VR spin-off for Meta Quest, which is probably the reason HW3 doesn't have VR support.
