This is similar to the KillSwitch vs Gears of War when it comes to the cover-shooter thing. While unfair, I believe the cultural impact is the only thing that counts. People like me might obsess over this and that thing and how brilliant, fresh, future-looking, innovative, new and the what-not...

Steam-exclusive? What the hell? I hope they got that wrong...

Yeah, that is pretty impressive. I know it is out-of-scope for the WC4 Remake, but what does the tech do for WC3's playstation videos (best quality we have)?

How could they? It is basically a DOSBOX wrapper and nothing else. But yeah, they are imprecise. Tried a gamepad and a joystick but it was even worse.

Yeah, but the controls suck, I want my good old Mac Version be ported or something. Would pay money but alas, it is no use. Would do it myself if assets and source code would be available (and usable), but no luck there either.

If only we would get Super Wing Commander to run, it remains glorious.

Yeah, I am pretty sure it was one.

this is supported by facts, the box office revenue was way weaker for Ep9

However, Freespace was explicitly written with the you are a small, irrelevant part in a giant war machine idea in mind. And it works well, at least in the well-written sequel, where the game really shines. Rookie One on the other hand is terrible, an actual character with voice, face and...

I can get behind that. Problem is, it is still a far cry from good-old-Star-Trek. Currently re-watching Voyager for the n-th time in parallel to this show and its a night-and-day difference. Yeah, sure, 25 years of TV between that and the new Picard but the old stuff remains engaging...

That is exactly the fundamental question, why is the frequency of a contrived/constructed plot with holes higher in modern writing? Remember how Game of Thrones shifted when they ran out of books? One of the interesting examples in recent years was the Warcraft-Movie. By most objective metrics...

Still reeling from the Fiasco that Episode 9 was, I am. Frustration about how modern Star Wars, widespread it is.

Okay, the necklace and stuff. Let's talk about that: First, obviously "fractal neuronic cloning", surely a very complex concept, are symbolized by TWO RINGS and obivously it has to be neuronic cloning. Not marriage, not mathematical circle- or set-intersection (Venn Diagram), not worlds/planets...

Ops, my bad... typo fixed :)

It's weak, unfortunately 😟. It looks like 2009 Star Trek, moves like 2009 Star Trek, sounds like 2009 Star Trek. To be expected, Star Trek is still in the hands of the people responsible for that, HOWEVER there is Patrick Stewart. It is simply a joy to watch this person playing this part. The...

But many of its mechanics were better. Plenty of stuff in WC3/4 was just "there" without any real benefit, like the power distribution. Plainly, it is just not really necessary to even engage in that gameplay mechanic.

Yeah, great work people. Honestly, all three highlighted projects here are utterly brilliant!

Yeah right, totally forgot. GO READ THE X-WING NOVELS before someone decides to ruin this stuff as well by remaking parts of it in the new canon. Great books and since Star Wars is WW2 in space just like Wing Commander, you will find a lot of similarities. Pilots in Figher Squadrons going on...
