Homeworld was the first RTS I ever played, and the game that got me to fall in love with playing RTS online forever. Every since Homeworld came out I was playing on the ladder, practicing, etc . . . played that all the way up until Homeworld 2 came out, and did the same until that ran it's course. Then, Relic came out with Dawn of War, so I jumped straight into that, and found out about competitive gaming. So in a very direct way, I owe everything I've ever done in pro gaming to Relic and Homeworld. It will be an extremely sad day if Relic goes under. I loved every single RTS Relic put out. I literally grew up playing those games. I played HW and HW2 every single day and night for my whole childhood, and when I graduated high school, I was still playing Relic games, practicing Dawn of War for 10 hours every day for WCG and the like. This is really, really bad news and I'm very saddened by it.

I find it hard to imagine a company such as Relic going into the gutter, I really hope THQ doesn't manage to go under and bring them with them in the fall. Now go make me a DoW3 that is a polished DoW1 without all the crap from DoW2!!! Also, make me Homeworld 3 now. Shut up and take my money if you do!

Eldar was fine. It was Ork, with all the building guns, you practically had to take the whole map before you could attack them. Bullcrap.

trying playing ig vs. eldar. dow balance was so fucked haha, so many free loss match-ups. epic fun game but you gotta think if only they had blizzard-esque resources..

but the best thing about orks was the burna bomb (delete). fuck that was a funny bug. definitely the best balance breaking bug in any game ever. ork mirror if it made it to t3 with free sluggas + burna bomb delete was sooooo funny. orks just in general were friggen hilarious mind you.

necrons were the least funny imbalance ever.

Dark Crusade wasn't that imbalanced. Unless u were playing at the top level, you could beat any race with any race.

you know times are desperate with THQ when re-releasing a slow moving 20+ year old arcade wrestling title on the iPad for like $5 becomes a press release.

Activision Blizzard should buy out THQ. Then Blizzard can have more RTS guys.
If I tell you the truth you'll vie for a lie. If I spilt my guts, it would make a mess we can't clean up. Say you'll never leave me 'cause I need you so much. I can't live with myself so stay with me tonight.

Wouldn't even be that bad of an idea to buy their good selling titles for a cheap price. If these great rts minds can work together imagine what could come out of it :o.

People remember Relic for DoW and CoH, and not HOMEWORLD?



^This is exactly what I thought when I read the OP.

Damn kids today don't know nothin' DoW was a good game, but Homeworld is an experience in itself. Also, anyone who says that Sins is the superior game clearly has never played Homeworld. What an ungodly amazing game it is.

I also think of THQ as the company beind the original Red Faction, which despite being a bit "on rails" was a supremely fun game and one of the better cross-platform FPSes ever made IMO; and it was done in an era where cross platform FPSes had a tendency to be terrible. I nor anyone I know ever played and of the poorly concieved sequels in the series though. Was a shame to see such a good game followed by such mediocre titles.

Warhammer 40k: Space Marine is also really fun so far. I got it during the steam sale a few weekends ago for $17, totally worth that, though I don't know that I would want to pay much more. Not terribly much depth but killing hundreds of orks with a chain sword is really fun.

Overall when I think about it, most of the PC games that THQ has published have all been pretty good, would be a real shame to see them go under.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.
