It has ex Starcraft people on it and looks like it has the backing of Riot Games? @_@

Guys behind Frost Giant worked on games like SC2 and WC3 before, so imo it can't be even compared to Day9 working on a game. Those guys actually made the best RTS games ever created, it's hard not get your hopes up on this one. | ||

It could be good if they look to sc2 for inspiration ! StarCraft was the first real esports and that game had resources at specific places and maps were made for natural progress in expanding the economy. Having commentatirs and an active scene helped making standard terms and phrases. It is possible that StarCraft was the origin of these terms, but it is highly likely that SC popularized them. However, they are not unique to SC. Any RTS with resources spread in a similar way use these terms as well. | ||

SC2 has the perfect balance of macro and micro. If too little macro it becomes shallow like WC3. If too little micro it becomes too similar to Age of Empires, which although being a great game, is not as masterpiece like SC2. | ||

You haven't played or watched aoe2 very much if you think it has too little micro. | ||

I just see that you have no idea about AoE when you said too little micro, let me laugh at your comment lol. | ||
