#dungeonsAndDragons and #realtimestrategy mixed into one in #Dragonshard
When I first played this game, it clearly gave me #Warcraft3 inspired elements. Unfortunately it did not have custom maps.
I do like that battles can take from both the ground and dungeons.

At "Amiga Games that Weren't" there is information and a preview version of "HiWar", a Red Alert clone that was later released as "Tridonis" on the PC.
Es gibt endlich ein neues Command & Conquer: Tempest Rising
Stand by for #Homeworld Classic test run...
OpenGL enabled... Adjust to highest possible resolution.
Pixelation within acceptable parameters...
All gameplay tests green.
We're clear to go.
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD.
Who would've thought that wanting to play #Homeworld1 Classic would be such a literal odyssey in space... (Courtesy of Gearbox who, if they already have to remaster HW1 in a wholly different engine, can't even sell a playable version of the classic game... 🙄)
Anyway, after much trial and error and some help from my friend @sebulon (shout-out to you 😉), I can FINALLY enjoy my beautiful retro starships in their full glory.
And thus, the REAL journey to the homeworld begins... 😌
(Was about to say "keelah se'lai" at the end until I remembered "oops, wrong game" - or is it?...)

I kind of miss RTS games with a great single player campaign. Personal gold standard are of course Homeworld, Starcraft and Warcraft III for me. Using the framework of realtime strategy to tell a story can make sense for a variety of stories, but - and I might be wrong with this - the last ones I can remember were, I don't know, perhaps Grey Goo and Halo Wars 2, who at least had a great presentation.
🇬🇧 Well, that was quick - apparently, I only need to wish for #Homeworld to be on sale for it to happen. 😂
Anyway, I treated myself to the HW Remastered Collection during #SteamSpringSale, so I'm probably going to start my journey into outer space soon! 😊
🇩🇪 Tja, das ging schnell - scheinbar brauch ich mir nur zu wünschen, dass Homeworld auf Rabatt ist, damit es wie auf Bestellung passiert. 😂
Jedenfalls hab ich mir die HW Remastered Collection im #Steam Spring Sale gegönnt, also werde ich wahrscheinlich bald zu meinem Abenteuer im Weltraum aufbrechen! 😊

🇬🇧 And that's it for #HomeworldDesertsOfKharak!
My first foray into the #Homeworld series, and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
It's a really good #RTS, although it took me some time to get used to some of the mechanics.
In any case, I'm looking forward to playing Homeworld 1 - eventually, as I haven't bought it yet. 😅
Till then, I think I will play around a bit in DoK’s Skirmish mode.
🇩🇪 Und das war's mit Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak!
Das erste Mal, dass ich mich an ein Spiel der Homeworld-Reihe gewagt habe, und ich habe es sehr genossen!
Es ist ein echt gutes RTS, obwohl ich einige Zeit gebraucht habe, um mich an einige Mechaniken zu gewöhnen.
Auf jeden Fall freue ich mich darauf, Homeworld 1 zu spielen - irgendwann in Zukunft, da ich es noch nicht gekauft habe. 😅
Bis dahin werde ich wohl noch ein wenig im Skirmish-Mode von DoK herumspielen.

'lifeschool' has started a new project: a real-time strategy game with some "Defender of the Crown" influences. The playing field in "King Arthur's Campaign" can be seen from a bird's eye view, the units are freely movable. The game is set in Roman times:
6. Homeworld (PC)
I'm awful with real-time strategy games, but I couldn't stop engaging with this game's immersive atmosphere. To this day, it has one of the coolest openings for a game I've seen! Much like "Markiplier", I think Space Is So Cool!

EDYN: The Interesting MMO Strategy Game With Potential
I got to play in the EDYN Alpha this weekend and have some thoughts on the game. I will be slightly lenient with my review because the game is still in development. That said, these will be my honest impressions.
If you’re looking for a way to upgrade your aesthetic, check out the new Epomaker RT65 mechanical keyboard, the Uhuru Gaming Mouse, or the EasySMX X15 controller. When you’re ready to start your blog on WordPress, sign up using my Affiliate Link!
I am happy to announce my newest sponsor, Game Nerdz. If you’re looking to buy any card games, board games, miniatures, and more, get it over at Game Nerdz using my affiliate links. Game Nerdz offers some fantastic pricing on anything you need, and it really helps me out.
What is EDYN?
EDYN is a unique MMO strategy game coming to Steam.
Build your empire against the ever changing backdrop as you compete for land and resources. Make your alliances, build your army, fortify your defenses, and do what ever you can to stay alive. How strong will your empire become?
Gameplay
EDYN is a massive strategy game where content is player driven. While there are NPCs to farm and expand against, the real fun is surviving against other player driven empires. The full game will allow players to build and upgrade bases, expand and colonize neighboring areas, make key alliances, and go to war with anyone who gets in your way. The alpha was missing a few key features like science and colonization, so I only go a taste of base building and combat.
Everything in EDYN works on a timer. Building, recruiting, and raiding all take time to do. The full game may have more animation, but the main loops seems to be waiting on timers as you try to build efficiently. Depending on the state of the world, it is beneficial and encouraged to make alliances to survive what could be an unforgiving landscape. The full version of the game will have challenges to complete and rankings to change as something for players to work towards.
Impressions
EDYN is an interesting take on the genre, but I fear it might be a bit too ambitious. Having player driven content, especially in a game as PVP reliant as EDYN, is a great idea, if there are players. Of all the times I logged into this game, I only saw people once. Granted, I keep weird gaming hours, but that shouldn’t matter for a game like this.
When people were online, I had fun talking to strangers and most of the community seemed friendly and eager to help newcomers. There was urgency to build my defenses, invade others, and attempt to forge alliances. When there were no people online, it felt like I was just waiting on timers.
The game does have potential, especially with some of the promised missing features, but I’d have to see their implementation first. The game might still be too niche since it only seems to cater to fans of a more IDLE form of RTS. Even then, unless it can pull in a decent population of players dedicated to driving the content, I don’t see this game seeing much success. I would check it out if you’re a fan of RTS and try to get into the alpha, otherwise I would wait for a more complete version of the game.
I enjoyed bits of the game, but lost interest when it seemed like I was the only one playing. I’ll have to see a more complete version for a more detailed review, but I am interested. The game does seem to have a few friendly and passionate players, a growing Discord channel, and dedicated devolpers tirelessly working on improving the game. Make sure you check out EDYN on Steam, and don’t forget to Wishlist!

Empire of Ants Isn’t the Epic Ant RTS you Think it is, but It’s not Bad
I was sent a free copy of Empire for Ants to review for my blog. While I am very grateful for the opportunity, I won’t let it sway my opinions. This will be my honest review.

What is Empire of Ants?
Empire of Ants is a unique 3rd person RTS out now on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC via Steam and Epic Games.
You are an industrious scout ant tasked with expanding the empire for your beloved queen. But this is no easy task, even for the mighty ant. Enemies lurk around every corner, and it is up to you to hold them back. Command your legions of ants and fight your way through the forest floor all in the name of the queen. Will you fulfill your role and successfully expand the mighty ant empire, or will you be another nameless drone lost in the cycle?
Gameplay
Players get to experience the world from a third person view of a mighty scouting ant. Players will complete quests and command legions of ants to gather resources, attack and defend against enemies, and expand the might ant empire. Players will essentially pick up missions, platform across the wilderness, and command units to attack enemies or gather resources.
Review
Empire of Ants does not work on the Steam Deck, at least not without some tinkering. This isn’t a deal breaker, but I would keep away if the Steam Deck is your main source of gaming.
When booting up Empire of Ants, players will be greeted with a beautiful world and design. The graphics and art in this game are beautiful, and I spent a lot of time on exploration because of it. The combat animation for the ants is pretty good, but there is some jank. Ants other insects will randomly fly out in every direction. Other than that, the sounds, the plants, and ants all look really good.
The game itself performs well, with a few performance issues that can be a bit hard to ignore. Sometimes the ant doesn’t move in the direction you want it because it starts climbing a random branch you didn’t notice, and other times the camera doesn’t respond how you need it to. It doesn’t make the game unplayable, but they do get in the way of the immersion.
The gameplay is where this game becomes a difficult sell. The game works well, but the loop is a little repetitive. If you’re looking for a competitive RTS about ants, you might get it from multiplayer, but you won’t get it from the story. The game feels a little easier than your traditional RTS, which is fine for the casual or kid, but not for the veteran looking to pad their library. I am terrible at RTS games and found this game too easy. A lot of the game does feel like an ant platformer, which is fine, but not what some people are looking for.
This game is cute, and has some cool ideas, but I would wait for a sale. I think the gameplay is a little too repetative to be worth the $40 and most people looking to play this as their RTS will be disappointed. Empire of Ants isn’t a bad game, it just doesn’t do enough to earn its price.
You can buy Empire of Ants on on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC via Steam and Epic Games for $39.99, but I would wait for a sale.

I would like say that it's great to play an RTS as the last one I played even remotely regularly was StarCraft 2 which, while good, was about 15 years ago lol.
It's nice to see the genre living on, despite the roadblocks that happened along the way. Hoping we see more of them. #rts #realtimestrategy
