Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak

I got it to see if the visuals hold up to the promise but not only that, I think the soundscape is also pretty interesting. As far as any RTS goes, it's notghing new, really. For now it draws me daily to spend some time with it in the evenings and I rather enjoy it. I got it on 90% off plus DLCs exept OST

Star War's Empire at war is easier to learn to play than this. Even in easy mode I get frustrated with the game.

I bought this game on Steam after release... don't really remember the bugs but I do remember that I thoroughly enjoyed this as a modern RTS. The story narrative and the overall feel of this game was captured from the original really well. I'd say for £5.99 on sale at the moment it's well worth the money

If you're a Homeworld fan, you already know what to expect; expect soundtrack, protecting supply lines and making a deathball to attack the enemy while microing your damaged units. It still the same Homeworld, just 2D now with a far more interactive carrier. Some say its short, it sort of is? it took me 10 hours to finish, but the story is tight, its cohesive and it flows well. I honestly would say adding 3-4 more hours to this would have felt like they were dragging out the story. The big difference the game has over the previous HW titles is that you can no longer hang around the battlefield to gather up all the resources before moving on to the next mission, so you will next to macro-manage your forces, resource gathering and making sure both are protected at the same time. Combat is where I think it could use refining and loses points; you have limited styles of units but each has special abilities so has the potential to be a micro-intensive game, but the game never really offers you the time nor the option to do so, and combat feels a bit repetitive by the late game, with the big cruisers dominating the field, thus removing the need for a number of smaller units.

Definitely has that Homeworld feel.
