Homeworld: Emergence

You guys are amazing! Everyone thought the source code for Cataclysm was lost, even Gearbox itself. And you somehow managed to get it anyways. I'm eternally grateful for this, and now I can just hope for a remaster of it. Praise aside, this game is amazing, improves on the original Homeworld in many ways. Buy it.

Well people, who know me, also know, that i am a sucker for EVERYTHING Homeworld! It is HANDS DOWN my favourite series and Cataclysm/Emergence is no exception. While it wasn't developed by Relic Entertainment (the initial creators of Homeworld) it really shines in its unique way. While Homeworld was kind of slow paced, trying to tell an epic story, Cataclysm is something i can only describe as a "Horror RTS"! Yes, i mean that in a serious way! Okay it may not be a Silent Hill, or something of that caliber, it still is the scariest RTS i know. The story is so dense and tight, you'd need a chainsaw to cut the tension sometimes. Just a GREAT RTS overall and a MUST BUY! One downside is there however. The OST is VERY heavily compressed. Just how everything was back then and on top of that, the game REALLY lacks in texture quality on some of the Beast-ships. I don't know, but it seems like they had to rush it. Other than that: AWESOME game! I am SO happy, that you can find it now on GoG! Thank you very much for this gem ^^

If I had to order all these games, I would put Cataclysm/Emergence at the top, with Homeworld 1 next and 2 at the bottom. This was, quite simply, the best of the series, with much more emotional voice acting, more indepth missions that weren't just "shoot down every enemy", awesome soundtracks, better in-game graphics (pseudo lens flares, more active backgrounds to simulate space) and the list goes on. You have to get this and play it! :D

one of my favourite games, back in days. I would be very happy if the game is extended by some languages. I bought it, but my Enlish is not the best. Greetings from Germany
