Gearbox apparently forcing Homeworld 3 devs to make the game more DEI compliant.

Shoutout to the random Brazilian dude named Kabrutus that basically uncovered DEI in gaming, all because Sweet Baby Inc attacked him for making a private steam group.

The people have spoken

Homeworld 3 is at 39% on Steam

ouch

Best review I saw was "I mean it isn't the absolute worst, but this isn't Homeworld"

Disappointing. Don't buy this game. Not worth the money.
Wait for it to be on 50% sale.
Buy the Homeworld Remastered instead. As of 2024 Summer Sale, it is us )5% off.

This is a dumb down version of Homeworld 2.

1. No hard points.
ALL Carriers and Battle Cruisers are the same.
Capital ships cannot be crippled - 0% damaged; 50% damaged, 90% damaged; it does not matter.

2. Scuttle and Retire (hidden context menu)
I found the scuttle and retire commands on accident while watching a Youtube video.
I have been sending ships to their demise whenever I want to change strategy and fleet composition.

3. Terrain is a gimmick you don't use.
It just messes up the move commands and the camera.

4. BAD overall Gameplay.
Run at full fleet capacity and you will see issues popping up.
- Trail blazing is very poor.
- Game interface is confusing - the Build and Launch interface does not map to selected unit.
- Formation is now a liability - ships are mindlessly forced into it.

5. meh Campaign
This game wants to be in ESports so badly that it neglects those who wants to casually play the game solo.

6. TOO MUCH cut scene - too much drama
Not to mention the game continues while you watch the drama.
So when the cut scene is over, strike craft obliteration procedure is also over.

I can go on and on ... but at this point it is just a waste of time.
