Stardock CEO Brad Wardell has announced that the company plans to offer their titles on Steam now that Impulse has been purchased by GameStop and they no longer have a conflict of interest with Valve's service.
From the review: "Like watching a hot new pitching prospect. Most of the time he is good, but every once in a while does something incredible. Worth picking up if you are a fan of 4X TBS fantasy. Otherwise, watch this space for the best new game of 2017."
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.
Stardock, developer of the popular 4X PC space strategy series Galactic Civilizations, completely restructured itself as the result of a flop in land-based fantasy strategy game in 2010. Now the company will attempt to redeem itself in the genre. The story profiles the company and includes interviews on what's changed and how it's affected the company.
Glad that the disaster that was the original Elemental didn't kill these guys.
WTF Stardock is out of Michigan....Hmm never knew that.
Good read though, and I look forward to their new game.
Started Playing Gal Civ 2 again the other day, eventually I'll get Gal Civ 3 once it's fully finished.
Solid game developer really.
* Another Fantasy-Strategy 4x games is always a nice welcome though.
Games like this you can play for YEARS and never get bored.
Seems like they got lucky with a big cash injection from the impulse sale and are now happily spending it on golden toilets and yoga classes for the office and staff, what could possibly go wrong. Seriously though I hope galciv 3 will be great because it really needs to be after elemental.
I had to do a double-take when I noticed Sins of a Solar Empire on steam last night.
