Homeworld Remastered Collection

it is old school fun head to head

I love it. I bought this collection thinking about Homeworld 3 (I never played a Homeworld game back in the day). The campaign is awesome, the graphical improvement is amazing and totally worthy today. The narrative is the best part, especially in Homeworld 1. This collection is the best of the entire saga. After looking the reviews, I think Homeworld 3 can wait.

Somewhat of a learning curve, but not by much. Really fun RTS!

Un cauchemar de QoL ce jeu. Plus une bataille contre la caméra que contre l'adversaire à ce point. Le dézoom qui ne transitionne pas vers la vue macro, les icones des unités qui apparaissent quand elles veulent, les alertes inutiles car non précises. Je n'ai pas vu en quoi la composante Z est un plus en terme de combat.

Classic game polished to perfection.

I was extremely excited to experience the Homeworld saga. After the 1st learning curve run ending in overpowering enemy forces on level 4 I did not know how to play around as a newbie, I went for run 2. This is since you keep your fleet and progress between missions, thus planning run 2 to focus on the long run. 2nd run I was docking interceptors for repairs and ran into crashes 3 times in mission 2 due to incorrect automatic docking wayponts. Alright, I thought, I'll just designate to dock with the mothership for repairs. I managed to gather a sizeable fleet for mission 3 [spoiler] of 16 [/spoiler] [spoiler] by salvaging the corvettes sent by the carrier on mission 2 [/spoiler], starting mission 3 with 3x times as big a fleet as the 1st run, feeling quite satisfied. Now, instead of facing 3 frigates bombarding the mission critical cryo pods (start of mission, UI has not loaded yet), I am facing 10+ frigates, misison fails within 2 minutes and I am just sitting here with the fleet at the ready and my jaw dropped. I hate this degree of brainless difficulty scripting and I can only assume playing efficiently through the remaining missions would similarly punish an efficient gameplay. Thanks but thanks no, this is not fun. Maybe Homeworld 2 within the remaster will be better, I'll just watch a playthrough for the story of the 1st one and call it day... Or the 2nd too, unfortunately I am beyond asking for a refund.
