HOMEWORLD 3

>shitbox
it's going to be shit, just like the remakes

THERE IS A GOD

oozing soul

That's exactly it, the way they jimmied the HW2 engine into HW1 really REALLY shot the game to shit when it came out, they did manage to "fix" it but it was too late by then.
Also the "remastered" cutscenes weren't that great. They got the VA work redone but it wasn't really properly mixed with the overall audio or ambient cutscene audio was missing.
I just hope to fuck this turns out well

Come on it wasn't that bad. My biggest issue with the game was how I felt that it was the nail in the coffin, they'd not be doing a real homeworld.

Kharak was unironically pretty good though user, it just wasn't Homeworld tier.

I don't understand. Gearbox is not fronting them the cash for development?

If you won't join, then die. There's no withdraw.

we will not be bound

This confused me as well. Since the goal is only $1 think they are mainly doing it for the marketing element think Divinity Original Sin 2 and a little extra cash up front.

Might be the Shenmue 3 gig? Use crowdfunding to gauge target market viability and then fund accordingly?

OK I loved deserts of Kharak, but the resource management in homeworld 1 remaster was a bit fucked. Id get wrecked becuase id not have enough resources or ships or something. I haven't played it in 3 years, so maybe I was doing something wrong. Any advice?

>original homeworld campaign

>no people on screen(except for 3 seconds of karan)
>no visible enemies, no pictures of villans, no intros with the great evil
>the only visible "character" in the game is the mothership itself
>every other character is just a voice
And even with this, Homeworld manages to get me invested in the story and characters infinitely times more than 99% of games, even current AAA games with milions in the bank. It absolutely blows my fucking mind that a game with no people on screen at any time makes me feel for these characters in a way i don't feel for almost no other character in any video game ever. How the fuck do you make a strategy game with a 20km metal banana and make people literally cry in mission 3 and have despair flashback when they hear a violing piece from 1936. How.

He is referring to the destruction of Kharak and the annihilation of the Kushan, you dumb idiots.

Deserts of Kharak didn't sell.

The goal was only $1. The reason they give is so that fans can give them feedback on the development, but it's clearly just an elaborate preorder

Attached: Concept_china_gate_far09.jpg (1024x576, 437K)

It's a good question. Storytelling in general is a lost art. It makes me sad to look at great games of the past, and how they each sucked you in, how each's sound, visuals, music, voice acting, or story had its own distinctive charm. You have to put it down to an unmotivated workforce, no-one will tune their respective work to perfection because no-one gives a shit about Cod 24, AssCreed 16, whatever. Its about quantity over quality. This and the fact that too much fidelity kills art.

so the main question - do we get the mothership

Agreed, in general I can't wait to see what the game looks like. Homeworld has aged really well but the envioments are a bit lacking. Got any of these arts in high res?

It's in a bunch of the concept art, so it would be weird if it wasn't

you start with a frigate and capture build it into a mothership its a semi open world story gated progression build to apocolyptic showdown with the bentusi that have been influencing races in order to farm there populations as slaves

>I loved deserts of Kharak
You're in a minority then. Great game ignored by people that didn't give it a chance do to not being set in space.

can we marry the mothership?

I mean if they cant even make an exciting trailer that looks fresh how the fuck can they make an interesting game.

You think Homeworld 3 will be Dust Wars 2.0?

For those that don't know Dust Wars was the original concept for Homeworld 2 but do to the publisher wanting something else it never happened.

Here's a video about it

No idea on that front. I only have the proper original design doc. Fun fact: originally, was supposed to be about Earth, the mother ship was a colony ship.

If we are to judge by the trailer the game is gonna be a blend rehash of the original, riding on nostalgia and still managing to disappoint.

>space opera
>not cheesy

It looks pretty janky as fuck in their alpha trailer, but it might improve. Got the writer of the original behind it though. So even if it looks like shit it might still have the same level of kino.

This. Deserts of Kharak is the soulful homeworld game.

call me crazy but i like the actual setting and story on homeworld much better

Oh totally, I think that making it just aliens and adding in the burning of the planet was a good call. The original design was also way more hardcore and simulationy. Cutting down on that was a good call too.

It's a VERY different style, but I like the original designers current project. A weird 4th wall breaking role playing series called CONSORTIUM. Has that same vagueness, but done slightly differently. You'll almost always find some contradictory information to something you hear/read and it keeps it all in perpetual question.

You now remember the gardens of Kadesh

Attached: There is no withdrawl from the garden.png (373x398, 211K)

That's how I feel. HWs imply a nomadic saga but DoK IS a nomadic saga. I hope they do more DoKs as a spin-off series.

I now remember that the remaster ruined this level because there's no fuel but they kept the fuel units

So the release date will be delayed over and over again then suddenly the game is moved from steam to epic launcher?

Well, I'm theoretically excited for a proper Homeworld game in space. I'd love to have another good one.

That being said, Q4 2022 is 3+ years away and this shit has the Gearbox taint, so I'm definitely not paying before this is out and not exclusive to one cancer shop or another.

Don't forget the fact that since it uses HW2 style ships, the multibeam frigates die to a stiff breeze and their weapons lose damage against armor of ships bigger than they are.

kharak was a desert shit hole I'm glad it's gone

EPIC WINS AGAIN BABY

What are they even gonna do to make an impactful story this time?

HW1: Reach the homeworld. A well crafted journey of return storyline that resonates with almost anyone.
Cataclysm: A more intimate underdog clan kino story that will never be surpassed, but the overall scope of which was not on the scale of a mainline series game.
HW2: Defend the homeworld against an ancient evil?(TM) by going into temporary exile. Not as memorable as the first 2 games.

Unless it's like a reboot or something I don't know what direction they could take it.

>prisoners did not survive interrogation

a great fucking detail that really makes the scene to me. Of course you're not going to let the fuckers who torched your world live, especially when they tell you they had legal precedent for their genocide of your race.

It used to be that I would have pledged way too much money to this the second I learned of it. I love Homeworld that much and have been waiting for the third since Gearbox bought the IP and gave it to BBI. But I think I'll have to wait until I see which PC store they release it on. 2.5 years is a long time for another, more cancerous, store to come along and buy an exclusivity agreement with Gearbox.

This came from one of the writers in the VTMB2 team.
>100% yes, we are absolutely concerned that some content in the game could be difficult for players living with trauma or a mental health issue. For the Malkavians we will make sure to describe to the player what they may experience when playing. But what may be difficult for us is making some of the systemic or scripted events turn on or off selectively. We are moving away from the 'fishmalk' portrayal for this iteration of Bloodlines, so we expect the Malkavians to be a much more unsettling or scary experience this time around.

>Rachel and I have discussed some ways to be kinder to players who might have PTSD issues in particular, and one of the things we are considering pitching to the team is a part of the accessibility menu where we outline the thematic content of each mission so that you can prepare yourself ahead of time for a particular mission, choose not to play a side mission that might involve some issues you feel uncomfortable about, or grab a friend or partner to play through certain content with you. What we may do is give players a run down in that menu of what to expect from Malkavian playthroughs so that you can make a more informed choice about whether you feel comfortable playing that way. That way, we are not changing the experience, but we are giving you space and time to consider when you'd like to continue.

>Does that sound like a good idea to you? This is all still being worked out of course, but we really care about it, and I hope that our game can be considerate in a way that works for you. I'd also love to talk to you over email about what you personally experience as difficult in games, it would be wonderful to know more about how to design a game from scratch for these issues, so we begin from the start to make the system work for you.

Oh you're just a rent free faggot okay, for a moment I thought there was some legit shit to be worried about.

I am told that reached the break-even.

It'll probably have a more personal Deserts style story focus. Instead of Fleet Command, it'll be Captain Kitth So&so, with his stardate logs.

If it is Epic exclusive, then Homeworld 3 would be forgotten forever. This will mark the real death of Homeworld franchise period.

Probably to show passage of time

No matter how loud you people cry, you'll still need to face the facts, most people don't care about storefront wars and will buy whatever they want, wherever its available or cheapest.

I doubt Epic will still be buying exclusives in 2022. At least I hope not.

You mean free since Epic buys all the copies anyways so people can pirate without a single care?

Mitsoda was not the the main writer for VTMB, he was part of a team, and we don't know how much of the content he helped with, I know the about two quests he helped, but I'm sure how much input he had on the overall setting, Jason D. Anderson and Leonard Boyarsky were far more important for the game since they were in lead positions.
For the soundtrack, unless he went back into drugs and poverty, I'm not if not going to be good as the fist one.
>Same look and feel
Hardly, the combat is literal trash, the system is basically Dishonered tier, and the fact that you play as a useless thin, it won't feel like the VTMB because B2 is using an entire different rule set for the world.
They are also cutting clans on release, Nossies and gangrels were removed, and they already have paid DLC planned.

I hope they will understand the consequence of accepting the Epic exclusive deal. Most of us will not buy HW3 cuz it is not on Steam, but we want to keep homeworld franchise alive. In addition, Epic already bought those copies. They should be cool with us pirating HW3.

I'd gladly buy it on GOG, speak for yourself. Just not on Mr. Swine's Sucker Swindling Shop.

>It was supposed to be Earth

I heard somewhere when they were first making it, Relic wanted to make a Battlestar Galactica game. So after getting a prototype together they went to NBC and said "Hey, can we get the licence?" and NBC was like "lol, no", and Relic went "Fuck you then, we'll make our own setting with blackjack and hookers."

It worked out well.

As best I know. nah. This is the initial (and story) section of the doc.

Earth, the near future, mankind has not yet left the confines of the Sol system: Astronomers using the hubble telescope detect an extremely large object heading directly for Earth. It has the size of a very large asteroid, yet it seems strangely....artificial. As the object hurdles towards Earth, the Earth World Government speeds up the production of the largest colony vessel ever created and rapidly begins plans to launch this vessel (with 2 billion colonists) along with a large support fleet before this object hits Earth. They also begin preparations to deal with the threat when it arrives.
Many years later, the object begins to slow down as it enters the Sol system. This fact alone causes Earth to enter a state of pandemonium, and the Earth Military gets ready to hit the object with the most powerful nuclear weapons available. It is at this time that the great expedition is launched.
The object comes to a complete stop when in orbit of Earth. With their fingers on the launch buttons, Earth Military Commanders watch the object carefully. It looks remarkably like an asteroid, but seems to have many artificial features, and is obviously a device of alien origin. Suddenly, the device begins to register a massive build up of energy.......The nuclear weapons are launched. Hundreds of missiles hit the object, which manage to break it up into thousands of large pieces. They fall to the Earth, causing massive destruction and mayhem. It is at this point that the fleet loses all contact with Earth.
The Fleet Commander can now only assume that he is now responsible for the very survival of humanity.

(As it will turn out at the end, that object was actually a massive communication device....an intergalactic “welcome wagon”, if you will. The build up of energy was nothing more then all of its systems coming on-line to begin its standard “Hello there” sequence...Because Earth immediately destroyed it, and sent a huge fleet of ships heading towards the Alien homeworld, a huge misunderstanding develops. The aliens think that they are under attack after their show of peace, and the humans beleive that THEY were the ones who were attacked. It will work out in the end, after the player has decimated all of the alien’s defences and is orbiting the alien homeworld. The aliens will surrender,and the misunderstanding will be resolved.)

Well, exactly, where where they??? Have them show up to lend support during a rough assault mission. Have a counter-attack mission against a Vaygr base where you have to escort the Kun-Laan in range, then they go off to protect Hiigara directly or whatever. Something is better than nothing!

post moar homeworld grills

The gameplay was too frenetic, coupled with the fucky camera and the controls felt gummy. I liked what was originally announced, a little slower paced with tactical meaningful battles. I own Deserts of Kharak, I've played through the campaign 3 times, I liked it. However I can see the problems it had and I kinda want to see what BBI would have made had the homeworld team not gotten involved.

If I want to do a first play through of homeworld 1 and 2 should I start with the remastered editions or the originals?

Attached: 1463781930368.gif (316x213, 2.77M)

remastered butchered homeworld 1 and made it basically homeworld 2. Play the originals and cataclysm.

Yeah, dayum shame. I remember playing the original all those years ago, I managed to keep 4 multibeam frigates all the way to the end, which probably is what won that one for me. And my first playthrough of the remaster was bugged, the AI during the final battle didn't work. So I just destroyed a parking lot and became glorious hero of revolution.

Be prepared for muh stronk wamyn overcoming the patriarchy.

There's lots of ways this can still suck. As a fellow Homeworldfag who used to listen to the soundtrack in my CD player, and read the original manual cover to cover multiple times, I even took that damn thing to China with me when I lived there for 5 years and it's falling apart but I still have it, that glorious silver and blue cover. Don't get too hyped.

HWRM looks much nicer but on release supposedly some HW1 ships weren't acting correctly or something, but that is apparently fixed now. I played HWRM without playing HW1 and was ignorant of any issues, played the campaign just fine and loved it, so take that as you will.

It had to do with how combat worked, and the changes mostly afflicted strike craft and their formations. One of the big changes is that in HW1, projectiles were tracked and inflicted damage if they hit an enemy. However in HW2's combat system, the projectiles were aesthetic and damage was a dice roll. Since HW1 Remastered utilized HW2's engine, it was impossible to fully recreate the same balance behavior as in HW1. Also they fucked up formations compared to HW1

The biggest crime is that in the original, you could play as the kushan ships or the taiidan ships in the campaign. You can't in the remaster. Fuckin taiidan were so sexy.

Hello Homeworldfriends. I've only played Kharak when it came out (and enjoyed it). What else of the series should I play? I imagine the original, but is the actual original the best version or is the remake better?

Just get the remaster play 1 remastered version it's good enough with the recent pathes. Play Cataclysm (GOG version) then 2.

Nice, I'll do that. Thanks.

I fucking hate when that big white ship start ramming your own ships.

hnggggggg

Do the recent patches actually fix the formation and pathing problems that it launched with? Gearbox dropped the fucking ball at launch - key features that made the game great were not properly reproduced.

Yes they spent two years patching this shit. The big thing for purists is fuel which I can't remember if it is in or not.

IS DESERTS OF KHARAK WORTH PLAYING BROS FUCK

The project is already funded.

Yes.

I dislike that Deserts made things more personal kind of like Cataclysm. Seeing glimpses of humanity through rigid protocol was one of the great things of the original.

Any time one of these companies makes a mobile game you know they don't give a flying fuck about the PC market, let alone making a good game. The only thing that matters to them is money.

So Deserts of Kharak was just not as good as HW because of the devs. This makes me feel even less optimistic.

Except Deserts was great and was only disliked by brainlets.

Gearbox only care about Memelands 3. They will drop some money on Homeworld 3. Just for good reputation.

Everyone's going to play Homeworld 1's remaster by shitbox and it is going to leave an awful lasting impression of the game simply due to shitbox's incompetence at """remastering""" it.

It wasn't a very good game

If you want to sell, you need more than nice VA's, artwork, and music. You need solid gameplay.

Seems to me the blackbird team is missing someone who actually understands what a fun game is.

Nevermind, just saw that you'll also get the original games if you buy the remastered.

It was boring and inferior to the original games. It clearly shows how the devs have lost their touch over the years.

The manual also really helps, as did the additional material from Deserts of Kharak that expanded on some of the manual lore. So many stories to tell in the little history on that desert world, let alone everything after they left. The world-building in this series is amazing.

AKA they are missing some few people from the original Homeworld devs, which is why this is destined to be another product ruined by Wokebox.

homeworld 1 remaster was more than 'a bit fucked up' in every single way

It shouldn't have even been included because it wasn't a remaster, it was a rape. They raped Homeworld 1 and put the skinned corpse into the "remaster".

Homeworld was dead by the time HW2 hit the scene

The series had good gameplay from HW to Cataclysm. Homeworld 2 destroyed everything about it that was any good at all, from the storyline to the gameplay.

I still to this day do not understand the praise HW2 gets. I honestly think people just mistake it for the first game or think it played the same without having actually touched it.

They never worked properly though. It was a bandaid to fix a colossal fuckup because the team doing the remaster was lazy and felt they could just asset drop HW1 ships into HW2's engine and call it a day.

>accuses everyone of being a gearbox shill
>sees Randy everywhere
>tries to deny his schizo tendencies
>demands arguments to counter his schizophremia
seek help my dude

The praise that HW2 gets is that it looks great for something that's only 1/4 of the game, an unfinished product. It's well-deserved praise. Too bad they couldn't finish it.

Learn to shill better.

I have mine sitting on my shelf

I think it will be something about the Progenitors, judging by the trailer. Maybe the hyperspace cores are decaying and they need to find Progenitor technology capable of replicating it?

If this game doesn't have some prog rock song written for the context of the story itself I ain't buying

Jesus Christ what the fuck is wrong with people? Are you seriously that triggered by a fucking video game? If you are and you have legit trauma in your life, stop playing video games and go to fucking counseling.
Judging by this and the recent White Wolf Vampire TTRPG books, this is going to be an SJW/tranny shit show.

Its fine I guess, I don't feel like shitting on another artist. I always held homeworld to a higher standard and something feels lackluster about the general art direction.

Bloodlines had a mediocre engine for melee, time constraints and contractual issues.
This can take its time and there's like half a dozen good engines out nowadays, so it's really inexcusable for what will be central content of the game.

This DLC stuff is just the cherry on the shit sundae

fuck off. self censoring is the death of art.

It lacks that spark of weirdness that homeworld had.
The new stuff looks too streamlined, HW often had clunky elements or ships being asymmetrical like the SkalTel, which made everything more exotic.
What we've seen of 3 so far is too generic, the fighters are streamlined symmetrical jets, the jumpgate looks generic etc

Do you guys not have phones?

I'm stealing your idea and making it my idea.

The gate looks exactly how it looks in old concept art

i think you might be a bit hasty in assuming things will suck based off of a few pieces of art and a short cinematic

Shills are fucking desperate trying to make this look good

>jews
Oozing stolen souls

It does look good, what are you on about?

I hope Baldur's Gate 3 and Homeworld 3 will be good at least. I think Baldur's Gate 3 has the best chance of being good due to the devs. I know some people don't like them and their way of writing sometimes but at least their games are fun and it's not like the storytelling is that terrible.

KUSHAN FUCKING SHITS NEED TO DIE
DIE DIE DIE DIE

div2 was actually pretty well-written for the majority of the game. Of course it could be better but it's not bad in any way.

div1 was a disaster.

White Wolf literally fired the entirety of people doing the recent garbage. Why are you people so misinformed?

I just hope that they use this song again.
youtube.com/watch?v=iJkoBNOPvjU

god damn, this song

the only credits i watched from start to finish only because of the song

HW2 is an alternative timeline.

I was talking about bloodlines, which, judging by what was shown so far, dev interviews and the already solidified plans for DLC will be a shitshow

ever wonder why it wasn't used back then?

From what I saw, the art direction is fine. That kharak desert game really did a good job matching the old HW1 style

The problem is the gameplay. Homeworld's gameplay has been in the shitter ever since HW2. They need to focus on that above everything else, and probably lay back on muh stronk wahmen shit and they're fine

It was too big to model in the old engine without serious performance issues from what I remember

I dunno, the concept art is some weird knobbly space corridor that's pretty cool and unmistakably homeworld, in the trailer it looks like the inside of a computer. Anyway, its dumb to read too much into the art direction on a cinematic trailer. I don't just want the same old shit either, these guys are capable of making fresh stuff and I wanna see it before giving them any money.

cool

It's what I see every time I see that image.

>Cutting down on that was a good call too
False but the game wouldn't have been made otherwise so I guess I'll agree anyway.

yes

Is it okay to play desert of kharak first as a relatively newcomer, since it's a prequel? I say relatively because I played both games for a few missions so I have some idea what it's about but I don't remember anything about the story.

based on this screengrab, i predict kiith s'jet, or at least karan, has gone rogue or will go rogue during the course of the campaign, which would probably mean we'd have to fight the mothership in some way.

Also if there's no reimagining of Karos Graveyard, they can fuck off.

I honestly hope not, she's sacrificed everything for her people, it wouldn't make sense for her to betray them.

play hw1/2 first, then dok. if you play dok it won't make that much of an impact and some cutscenes/things won't be "ohhh, so that's that" moments. If you REALLY care about the story, this is the proper order: HW1 Historical and Technical Briefing > HW1 > HW:C Manual > HW:C > HW2 Prelude To The End Of Times > HW2 > HW:DoK > Dust Wars docs

maybe something like "the council went full retard so it's time to take things into my own hands"?
OR - karan gone rogue, but you're playing as the mothership and have to fuck shit up so things get better or some such?

>Thoughts about DoK Expedition Guide?
if you can get it somewhere for free and read it then sure, it's great to compare this and hw1 points of view, but iirc it was sold as a separate dlc, so they can fuck off with selling lore shit that should already be in.

look up homeworld emergence on gog
they changed the name because cunts in blizzard trademarked "cataclysm"

bright crimson and dozens of poles

I was wondering if anyone has made any texture mods for it to make it look a little more up-to-date.

I played HW1RM, followed by DoK, recently.

It had fuel but literally only for the Gardens of Khadesh. Also ramming seemed to be completely out, collision damage only affected me in that bullshit asteroid mission. All my heavy corvettes died in the great asterocaust of mission #4. Formations worked fine too.

It's been too long since I played Classic, but wasn't even ammo tracked for strike craft?

I've got to say DoK surprised me, I enjoyed all the missions thoroughly except perhaps for the last one. I'm glad they combined resource controllers and support frigates into one glorious resource collecting, ship healing cruiser. It's just a shame that, at the end of the day, there's not that much variety in your units and no aerial combat from what I could see. I'm excited for this game, but story wise I hope like in HW1 and 2 characters are kept at a distance, whilst also giving all the individual ships their own commanders and some sort of experience level, like in DoK, even if it's purley text.
