Scott Sharkey: "Which leaves me in the position of calling this a highly-recommended C game. Right now, you'll be getting a kind-of-alright single player game with the promise of a potentially great multiplayer experience at some point in the future. Personally, I'm looking forward to playing more when that shining day arrives, at which point I'll be re-reviewing the thing. If you're interested in throwing down cash for a beta and maybe getting in some practice before things get smoothed out, go ahead and bump that score up a letter grade. Anybody else should find something else to do until then."
Stardock, one of the the longest running indie developers in the video game industry, has launched an intergalactic RTS Steam sale to end all RTS Steam sales.
That's a lot of RTS games... time I just don't have! Like I need my backlog to get any bigger!
Ya it's a pretty decent sale but The Taken King, MGSV, Fallout 4 soon... too many games.
Here’s how a StarCraft mod helped to shape the future of gaming.
I still haven't found a MOBA I can get into. Did LoL for awhile, but it was such a slow grind in terms of ranking up and getting money. DOTA 2 just scares me. Infinite Crisis was alright, but I lost interest in it pretty quickly.
Why does Dota 2 scare you? Just wondering because imo its a fairly accessible game especially if you get some friends together to play with you. Also if you are just scared of sucking dont be, just have fun and ignore those who flame because if they are flaming then they probably suck too and are just trying to blame you for any of their mistakes. So just download it AND HAVE FUN!
"From mod to sensation" to over-saturation.
i dont like how all these companys are now trying to make mobas, the markets already been taken by lol and dota.
they should come up with something new instead of just copying.
GamesBeat recently compared the most popular multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) titles such as League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth, and Dota 2 to each other, but many other games in the genre are also worth checking out. Inside you’ll find a selection of MOBAs from the past, present, and future and the unique elements they have to offer.
Hmm...
Stardock's 'Gamer's Bill of Rights'
"# Gamers shall have the right to demand that games be released in a finished state."
Woah, that's a massive difference. First reviewer gives a c and another an A plus?... wow, editorial reviewing is pathetic. I have no clue how these nerds became so powerful using reviews to determine what games will sell well or not - madness.
It's so sad that they start reviewing this game now. It got pirated to death before it was released and this lead to server problems. It's not even Stardock's fault.
Pirates pretty much ruined this game's reputation. That's quite unfortunate, because I bought it and it's EXTREMELY awesome.
