Anyone finding the game not starting
Download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable files from the Microsoft website (2015, 2013, 2012) both x86 and x64. The game should boot up just fine after that. I'm not sure if you need all of them but i haven't tried one at a time. The game is fun once you get it going.

Good game, but not as good as Homeworld.
Deserts of Kharak is the sequel/prequel to the first Homeworld, and since this game ist set on land, the combat and actiity takes place in a 2D plane. Gameplay is similar to Ground control, and it's good. Graphics are nice, sound and music are well done, the inability to remap controls was an annoyance, but check the forums for a fix. The maps are however a bit small, and it doesn't take much time to finish the missions, which makes the game too short imo. Buy it on sale, you won't be disappointed.

RTS noob managed to beat it and have fun
I always liked the idea of RTS games, but was never able to enjoy them because they're stressful, there's too much multitasking involved and it's not always obvious what you did wrong. If you're like me, you may like H:DoK. If you're an old fan of the genre, maybe trust other reviewers instead. I consider the original Homeworld a masterpiece (at least the parts I managed to see before giving up) and this preserves much of the original's atmosphere without being as difficult to control since it's in 2D. It was the first RTS I didn't give up on half-way and managed to beat. The atmosphere and storyteling is effective and it looks beautiful. The campaign felt just stressful enough, without being overwhelming for me. Micromanaging your units helps greatly, but is mostly unnecessary. In fact, it becomes less and less necessary over time and my main criticism is that the final two missions were a complete cakewalk amassing effectively infinite resources and a large artillery group with battlecruisers to protect them and scout out their targets. Most other people's criticism seems to be centered on three things: game being too easy, AI being dumb and there being no active pause. The difficulty didn't bother me and I actually liked the way normal felt, except for the final missions. I did feel stressed occasionally, but not too much after I figured out how the game works. I didn't feel like the AI was dumb, but I'm a newbie. They did try to bait me and their ranged units did try to keep distance so it felt smart enough to me. As for the active pause, the devs added it in a patch but I don't recommend it. I tried playing like that, but it completely ruined the experience for me. Then I restarted the campaign without using it and preferred it that way. So in conclusion, get it for the atmosphere and the story. Don't be afraid if you're not a fan of the genre. If you're a veteran, it'll be a cakewalk and you may not like the gameplay.

Kharak - 1110 KDS
Planète Kharak, la coalition prépare une expédition dans le Grand Désert à l'aide du vaisseau-mère Kapisi commandé par la scientifique Rachel S'jet, afin de trouver l'anomalie primaire, l'objet Jaraci, qui serait la clé de la survie face à la désertification de Kharak. Mais Khagaan, du Kiith galsien, serviteur du puissant K'Had Sajuuk, considère que la diplomatie a échoué car la coalition envahie leurs terres en plus d'avoir violé par le passé, le premier commandement de son créateur en allant dans l'espace et déclare alors la guerre. Jeu de stratégie qui propose une campagne solo de 13 missions, un mode multijoueur et un mode escarmouche solo sur 16 cartes allant jusqu'à 6 participants, avec 4 factions, mais les Sobans et Khaanephens ne sont disponibles qu'en DLC payants. Pour mon périple: +Désert varié et magnifique, direction artistique impeccable +Visuellement solide +Bruitages géniaux +Mentions spéciales aux explosions +Musiques parfaites +Mise en scène cinématographique fort réussie +Campagne passionnante +Doublages (VOST) +Cette ambiance ! +Dynamique +Unités assez variées +Conservations grades/unités pendant toute la campagne +Les croiseurs ! +Les nombreuses améliorations d'unités +La capture d'ennemis +Missiles de croisière ! BOOUM ! +Les reliques +Orientation Kapisi=blindage/défense/armement/portée +Défense du plateau de Khashar ! +Bataille contre les vaisseaux-mère K'Had Revanche et K'had Sunder ! +Le vaisseau Amiral Gaalsien +Mission final réussie +Environ 11-12h de jeu pour la campagne en difficulté normal +Transition avec Homeworld Remastered ≈Gameplay classique ≈Fin expéditive -Optimisation très mauvaise=chutes importantes de performances en bataille (Unity) -Mappage touches bloqué (hors fichier de jeu) -Quelques bugs d'ennemis/pathfinding Quel plaisir cette campagne ! Les problèmes d'optimisation gâchent un peu l'expérience finale, mais le reste est vraiment de qualité. C'est beau, contenu et durée de vie tout à fait correct, un solide jeu :)

Not really worth the price
If you have played the first and second games, then this may be a very interesting prequel game. If you haven't played before, it's not recommended to start with this. The plot of the story cannot be said to be boring, it can only be said to be relatively plain. The combat aspect is indeed very interesting, but it is only limited to this. The process takes about 11 hours, and it is recommended to purchase at a discount.
