Designers seem to forget that art styles then were as a result of technical limitations!!! They wanted to run those large simulations on limited memory and that’s the best style that could make it work. And somehow it clicked becuse at its core the gameplay loop was the goal.
The Review: "On an underlying design level, it's a thoughtful progression even from the flash and polish of Starcraft 2." The Evidence: ??? Bro you gotta substantiate these wild claims you're making.
Dead on arrival - this does nothing new for strategy veterans and literally nothing for beginners or new people. And that second part is a must have for any new RTS if it wants to survive
They said they are. Literally: "In terms of visuals, we will continue to make changes and improvements throughout Early Access and beyond, and you can expect to see more art improvements as we move towards 1.0. These changes will be across the board, including lighting, environments, ground textures, units, buildings, resources, UI, and more. We will update and improve some things while outright replace others."
@@mynameizmaineimis1880 Classic Tim Morten PR spin piece. They was said nothing definitively here. "We will continue to make changes" - like what? They do this with every single one of their blog posts or reddit comments. They make it intentionally vague so that the copers have something to hang onto while they keep siphoning off investor and supporter cash.
The devs said the character models used in the cinematics are ingame (viewed at a distance from above) and that the cinematic character models will be much more detailed
For every thing it has from SC2, there's an even more important one that it doesn't, and Stormgate has mostly been better off for it. Specially regarding hyper-mobility, AoE burst damage and unit clumping in deathballs. I'm looking forward to coop and 3v3 modes, since they don't seem to be an afterthought like they were in SC2.

Not at all sure there is as big a market for "competitve rts" as for a single player rts that can be played multiplayer. Age of Empires 4 failed as a single player game, which hurts its longevity and long-term sales.
Stormgate has a while to go. They would have benefited from pushing release back until the game was further developed. This puts a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths.
maybe if you can connecet mouse and keyboard to your phone and attach a bigger screen to it, so you can actually see stuff? Like what's your point? That the e-sports focused graphics, that are clearly chosen for readability, aren't to your liking?
Gameplay in every mode is Fantastic even in its unfinished state ! The devs just pushed to EA way too early - but they have already delivered great gameplay. High confidence all rough edges will be smoothed out in a year. Either way, I'm loving this as is now
Don’t forget guys this game is made by a litle studio, no way it will be better than Sc2 on start, but yeah they should make the look of unit better and more interesting .
We have to differentiate between hate and the desire for a game to improve though. The alternative would be people not caring at all, moving on and letting the game die
This community is really the worst. At first they were unwilling to ever demand improvements and changes from the SC2 devs to keep player interest. And now they've killed SC2, theyve pivoted hard into becoming endlessly critical.
Imagine Blizzard, but without the art team!
in this case its a lot of other things too, like the story, the lore and world building, the vibe, mission design, cinematics, sound design
without the voice actors too!
They all got fire my Microsoft leader that bought the entire Blizzard Co.
My question is, why not just keep playing StarCraft 2?
Because people want an actively supported game.
Because people are still boycotting Blizzard.
Why continue playing a game that Blizzard flat out abandoned?
@@NoExplosionsMcgeebc it is balanced RTS with a perfect story?

You already know what the score is
Hell yeah Se7En!!!!!! Lol
What score did they give Borderlands?
Yeah, exactly...
It has a little something for everyone
SC2 at home
haha damn it
WHAT IS THATT??! 10:45
lmao,the body proportion is fkd.
Nevermind that, look at the guy who's literally discount reinhardt
🤣@@sirgs5662
Nah IGN, no way you gave this a 7. Even for Early Access its incredible rough.
He seems like a pvp focused player and in that department it is easily a 7/10. For pve players it is disappointing for sure.
relax, gameplay is actually fun, but campaign makes me laugh
@@mrpipper7271 a lot of people say things like ''not fun only cheesing no strategy'' but still give a like to the game
LOL IGN gave Concord a 7 and it shut down recently, 7 is their bottom line
StarCraft Temu
This is the best description I’ve seen of this game
Huge disappointment from me, not even gonna hold a candle to WC3 or SC2 or Brood War in fact
What race did you play?
@@kgeo2686 Infernals but sadly every aspect just doesn't compare for me to the other 2
Worse design choice and art direction they could have possibly picked imo
Just like Mighty No. 9
Designers seem to forget that art styles then were as a result of technical limitations!!! They wanted to run those large simulations on limited memory and that’s the best style that could make it work. And somehow it clicked becuse at its core the gameplay loop was the goal.
They want the graphics to be playable by 90% of users. Can’t go much better without having to make the minimum requirements to be higher. My guess.
Worse? I'm not a big fan, but worse seems extreme.
2:55 called the game Starcraft lol
The Review: "On an underlying design level, it's a thoughtful progression even from the flash and polish of Starcraft 2."

we have actions figures in RTS
SC2 style game with: Creep camps, top bar, longer fights/more game swing, cool functionality like quick build etc.
Dead on arrival - this does nothing new for strategy veterans and literally nothing for beginners or new people. And that second part is a must have for any new RTS if it wants to survive
the 7 is just a troll at this point😂😂
You didn’t like it at all? What race did you play?
You guessed it. It's a 7
Lonely fella
Devs said that they are not changing the art. So keep on giving feedback as much as you want :D
Atleast they could make the Art Style a bit darker to make it a tolerable thing. This art style makes the game look bland and soulless.
They said they are. Literally:
"In terms of visuals, we will continue to make changes and improvements throughout Early Access and beyond, and you can expect to see more art improvements as we move towards 1.0.

You’re completely wrong but okay lol.
its just a bad game
Guys tell me do you think this game is going to revive the base builing RTS genre?
No nothing will. It's just the nature of the industry. Don't worry, I'm sad about it too
Unlikely
Its going to revive the RTS bullying genre. Shiet looks like mobile game
100% no
Zero chance.
Worst thing is: SC2 STILL LOOKS BETTER.
14 years later too.
So same score then Baldurs gate 3 early access, give me a break!
wow that is the most apples to orangiest comparision I've seen in a minute.

How did nobody catch that before posting?!😂
He was explaining how it was in SC and to say how Stormgate improved.
He was comparing the game to StarCraft, which felt like fighting your enemy with knives taped to a pole.

What a very huge disappointment from Frost Giant. Thanks to Sunspear games, RTS games will have a better chance at revival

Starcraft from Temu.
Stormgate... more like Temucraft
The reviewer sounds like he is about to fall asleep.
Generic and boring
How does anyone take this publication seriously? This game is a 5 at best.
Why do you say that?
Looking way better than a 5
5 out of 100 maybe.
You hated it? What race did you play?
@@kgeo2686everyone hates it
Chinese mobile games look better than this piece of crap

This game looks like it was cobbled together on weekends over summer break by some remedial high school kids.

I’ll reserve judgement till it’s finished.
How many of u nerds have even played the game before whining here?
Sewagegate
Yall were way too generous with this review and you know it
Disappointment! That’s all!
Everyone talking about world of warcraft, but nobody is talking about starcraft and red alert....
He speaks so slowly.
Gameplay in every mode is Fantastic even in its unfinished state ! The devs just pushed to EA way too early - but they have already delivered great gameplay. High confidence all rough edges will be smoothed out in a year. Either way, I'm loving this as is now
How’s the copium?
Awesome summary and review! Looking forward to people's reactions to playing the game tomorrow!!
Me too. I'll have my popcorn ready to go.
This literally is a 5 , they gave it a 7 because they can't be bothered giving it a real score.
1. you're using the word "literally" wrong
2. reviewers aren't obliged to mirror your exact opinion.
Would play alot if the AI had some difficulty.
Why not just ….. make Starcraft 3?
you get bore after an hour playing the game.
Yeaaa imma wait for tempest rising
Stormgate is just SC2 with shitty graphics, all the buildings and UI look the same...
IGN 7 means they basically hate the game. Above is they like. There are no other numbers.
Worst whiny voiced reviewer.
how is this a 7? a low 3 or 4
IGN must apologize to Black Myth Wukong!!!
IGN gave something a 7? So rare
It feels like Warcraft is a better comparison than StarCraft
Why does the reviewer sound like Joshua Moon from Kiwifarms
bud.... its early access..... be glad they added ANY single player mode stop bitching about it being a unfinished game when its UNFINISHED!
Bud they're out of money
7/10
17 mins in the game: 45/60 supplies. No tnx
WHAAAAA it's a me waluigi on the Atari 2600 (starts having a stroke)
Great readability, smooth gameplay, mainstream design and awesome interface! Already got 200 games in my pocket and climbing up the ladder!!
Tim Morten, is that you?
It’s a 7
*Legally Distinct* StarCraft.
Wow this looks boring
Stop using this person for review voiceovers

there is coop similar to starcrafts
