Haegemonia Gold Edition

I adore Homeworld, and games like Nexus are also on my short list of favorites, so when I saw the GOG community's enthusiasm for Hegemonia I was eager to try it out. The gameplay is fine and enjoyable, but to put it simply, I cannot handle seeing Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars on the screen at the same time in what is supposed to be an actual view of actual space. I made it to mission 2, where it looked like Jupiter, Saturn, and their respective moons were going to collapse into each other at any second, before I had to give up. Given all the excellent games that get the scale of space right - Homeworld, Nexus, Independence War, just to name a few - I don't feel like there's much excuse for the games that get it wrong. The enormous scale is part of the wonder and joy of flying and fighting in space. (I hated Freelancer for this same reason, along with its horrible flight model.) As I was playing this game, it really just made me want to play Nexus and Homeworld again. Even Conquest: Frontier Wars would be preferable in terms of simple verisimilitude.

Hi! I very very love this game :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myGU7XSKflI&index=32&list=UU1B64daHOVmSz3LB8TUgX-Q This game is one of the best space RTS!

Haegemonia rates lowly due to being poorly designed. It has no tutorial or controls section in the options menu yet asks you to do numerous tasks and to read certain things such as unit formation. The game doesn't pause while you look for these options and has no clear indicator of where or how to do most missions (This is a problem as it's a 3D world where enemies can not be readily distinguished against the background) inevitably you lose a lot and as the game goes quite slowly it takes a long time to get going again. Realistically you have to spend a long time reading a manual... yes that's right the least exciting part of all gaming experiences is enforced on you. If you buy this be prepared to be disappointed. I wish gog did refunds. I'd ask for one
