Anyone knows if it is actually good? After the Homeworld3 flop I am a bit hesitant to try.

It depends if they’ve updated it any. It was a trip of nostalgia having the original (or recreated with AI) voice actors. The gameplay was a lil wonky, and felt small and brief. The economy works differently than the mainline game. And the last to say is that there wasn’t a skirmish mode, only replay story missions.

So if they’ve updated it since it could be good. Otherwise it’s kinda mediocre and gotta go in with a different mindset to try to enjoy it.

And that’s just my two cents thanks for reading.

Hmm, I guess it depends on the price then. Thanks for the summary.
