I will silently wait here for all the people left with a broken soul after the HW3 disastrous campaign and it's writing to discover this one and ponder on what HW3 could have been without brainless writers and producers ruining it for the sake of the "message", DEI and other ruinous ideas that always do only contribute to the death of entire franchises. They had a Gem in their pockets, and now it is nothing but burned dust, scorched into nothingness just like the Kharak was. Rest in Peace, Homeworld. I will remember the good old days till I myself will turn into dust.
This song has a meditative and wonderous story, set in the endless wakes around a celestial achievement. I can hear the blips and beeps of the research ship, the crunchy, compressed, professional tones of my scout pilots. The dull scream of their fusion torch turning behind them. The Planet Kharak far beneath the Mothersip and Scaffold, whose colors are super aliased. The target probe combusts in orange puffs of heated gas, fading into the void and the scouts drag to a halt, chittering back into formation. The sound plays as much a part as the visuals creating the wonderous atmosphere (vacuusphere?) of Space. It's so rich in tone and story. Textural, it's hooked me like velcro.
I'm still not a fan of the final mission. One can't just send in uber-frustrating nuclear missile spewing starfish-like giant superweapons out of nowhere and with no explanation for an endgame like this.
Like Hecatomb, Alien: Engineers, and Command and Conquer: Tiberian Incursion, we sure got robbed. May HW3 cleanse the sins of HW2 when it comes out, hopefully well.
"Epsilon Base" from Deserts of Kharak, anyone? Say what I will about this game's overloaded story and noticeably different gameplay (and it not being Dust Wars), the music is still top notch.
So uh, this is kinda awkward. I wrote this plot back in 2005 for a mod called Dustwars. For anyone confused, it was meant as a prequel to an unused script for HW2 called HW Empires. I'm glad people like it though. This was a draft, I think I posted it on relicnews? Crazy.
This game is so ahead of its time. If it released this year for the first time, I would still think it was one of the best games released. No other game comes close in terms of how well made everything about this game was, from the story/lore, to the soundtrack, to the immersion and narrative, to the gameplay and designs. It’s truly the perfect game. Crazy to think it’s already been over 20 years...
być może wezmę to pod rozwagę przy okazji zrobienia remastera albo nowego odcinka, akurat w tym konkretnym przypadku ujęcia były ułożone w cyklach wschód/zachód Słońca :)
This video based on Homeworld2: Dustwars Total Conversion Mod story (written in mid-2007), which precedes original HW: Empire storyline, that has been sadly canceled in 2001. dustwars-story.blogspot.com/ And yes, it's many times more interesting than the prophecies and chosen one stuff from restarted HW2. I really hope that in the HW3 they will finally tell us the story of the brave 15-th squadron :)
Who knows, I wonder if this concept is still "theirs" but afterall this story is blown because we know it already ;) number "15" is still visible on recent concept arts so maybe 15th Fleet will be included in HW3 :) only time will tell
@@EhRandomGuy If I remember correctly this story was once published on Homeworld Shipyards but now this site is offline :( I don't have any buckup of this, sorry.
Homeworld 3 has been announced and crowdfunded. maybe it will be placed in this dust wars period. Trailer: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-J675BQaIuQs.html CrowdFunding: www.fig.co/campaigns/homeworld3
