I don't think anyone ever said he was high MMR - just that he played a lot of the beta. Anyway his skill is irrelevant here - he's mostly talking about people's first impressions of the celestials, looks and lore, which feels a lot like protoss (even if they play basically nothing like them). He's not commenting negatively on gameplay in the video (actually, pretty much only positive things to say there, from what I remember).

His video title and people's impression is kind of click-baity and the assumption is he doesn't like the game, but I wouldn't say that's the case. The video had a lot of comments on Reddit also, and I saw it linked in the Discord.

Already bought my pre-purchase on steam + 2 gift to 2 friends.
Last I did something like this is DoW3 . Time to sit back and watch another RTS fails xD.

had some time to try celestials and yeah it doesnt play at all like it looks but at the same time it s...i dont know, boring? So slow, the zealot angel things are impossibly powerful early game though but the whole thing feels a bit clunky.

I guess this isnt for me, i already disliked the art style but the gameplay is jsut meh. I relaise i m probably not the target so back to BW we go, and waiting for civ 7 (though, not a RTS since it s turn based).

Hope y a ll have fun and this and DK s games are somewhat successful, but also i m not going to lose sleep over either of those taking players off BW anytime soon. It was nice to be in the alpha and beta and overall the atmosphere during testing was good, so kudos to that.

Didn't you say you were absolutely not interested a few weeks ago? Or maybe, I'm mixing up people. If you are that person, what has changed your mind?

Same for it feeling clunky, but it's the first implementing of those units into the game so I get it

As for boring, the macro for Celestial definitely is, but the strategic part has so much potential. When they said they wanted a race based around strategy and base building they definitely hit it. With a mobile main base and units that power up around structures, the potential for strategy is endless

Yeah I must say I am rather digging the Celestial music, somewhat jealous of all that gear the pros get to play around with!

Wow the music really is fantastic. The clip they uploaded of Klepacki's Infernal music is great as well

Bulgarian choirs make everything more epic and good. But I may be biased.

The first game I loaded in with Celestials I remember thinking whoa this is pretty neat. Reminds me of Interstellar at times...

Yes, that's me.

Just usual RTS idiot fan would donate some money regardless, but also whine to the MAX.

mainly, I would be upset if I am going for PRO, it feels really bad in that regard, but I am so old that's not really a factor, LOL. I mean, it can't be worse than Dawn of War 3, where I bought 6 copies, LOL.

Looks like not all T3 gonna be in this year.

Good way to build a second round for hype down the line, but how is the competitive scene going to work.

They should have put in more units for testing and get rid of the worse ones or shelf them till they are more balanced imo

mid game units in stormgate late game honestly isnt bad, its like watching bio vs hydra bane kind of. lots of attacks everywhere and skirmishes. Late game units have the problem of encouraging death balls so i dont hate the fact they are being delayed.

Personally, committing to 7 heroes and 6 maps for co-op by the end of 2024 makes me feel a lot better. It really was looking like FG wouldn't be able to come close to delivering on their grandiose aspirations, but that's a very good starting place for co-op enjoyers like myself.

In terms of 1v1/Esports, ionno. So far, the game looks to be pretty deep and skill-differentiated, but I don't think there's any case for it to be better than SC2. Even if Tier 3 makes the game a lot more interesting, I think we're headed toward parallel scenes rather than anything truly replacing SC2.
