Homeworld: Emergence
Description
Homeworld: Emergence was originally released as "Homeworld: Cataclysm". "Cataclysm" is now a registered trademark of Blizzard Entertainment, Inc., and the game has been renamed to avoid confusion. Other than the subtitle change, the game is identical to the game released in 2000.
15 years ago, we were awakened from the cryo-trays. We had survived the journey to Hiigara, our lost homeworld. Then they told us that the planet we left behind had been destroyed. Our families... friends... everyone not on the mothership - killed. Destroyed by an enemy we never knew.
We realized there was nothing for us on Hiigara. No property, no rights, no future for the "Sleepers". So we returned to the stars, fully awake this time, to work and rebuild our lives.
It is ironic, then, that we are the ones to discover an alien capable of exterminating all life in the galaxy. And only we are in a position to destroy it.
Fifteen years after returning to their homeworld, a Hiigaran sect unwittingly releases an alien horror. Now it's up to you to commandeer the Kuun-Lan, a Hiigaran mining vessel, and transform it into a combat-ready mothership. Build and control a fleet of ships, research technologies, and harvest resources while you search for a way to eradicate the alien threat before it is too late.

Repeated crashes
As much as I love the game, my Win 10 refuses to process the game beyond the developer's trade mark intros. The system can't even explain why the game keeps glitching out...any chance for a hotfix?

Can't actually launch the campaign
Can't actually launch the campaign. While it installed and loads fine (Win10 + GTX 1070), once loaded, I have no mouse cursor on the main menu.

Game is a 6 out of 5, but install broken
I'm a huge Homeworld fan (Pride of Higara figurine, check). I have played this as well, and purchased it here on GoG in an attempt to move away from my Steam account. Install here is bad bad bad. I have the Homeworld Cataclysm CDs right here and install/play just fine. I purchased here (as with many products that you just want digital copies of) and crash after the splash screens. Support cares not that the game runs from the disk installs and recommends a bunch of busy work (classic canned stuff. "update graphics drivers", reinstall the game, download old directx versions, etc. AMAZING GAME, but beware of GoG galaxy install of this masterpiece.
