    Someone sell me on Homeworld.

    I know it’s beloved, but it always just seemed like a much more fiddly 2D rts.

    I can’t recall the third dimension ever making a huge difference.

      In homeworld 2, it barely matters. It’s just a really good rts, with great visuals and a wonderful story.

      In homeworld 1, the 3D part totally matters in a lot of missions, and it’s really fun and cool.

      The appeal is “spaceships, space Middle East, cool music”

      Once you get good at it, the third dimension really opens up a lot of cool combat scenarios. But unless you really need a good RTS or love space or whatever it’s probably not worth getting good at.

      I for one loved the first one and liked the second and will probably play the hell out of this one.
