In SC is very distinct a marine, a zergling and a zealot. As other units. In Stormgate everything looks like a brute from the distance. I go the feeling the art director spend a lot of time zooming in each model rather than creating for the size they appear in the gameplay.
This... I don't hate on the game but when I see the models outside the game they look quite good, then ingame it is awful since most things looks almost the same, I hope they fix it later. The game at least seems good and the story kind of interesting, however as said before the art direction is still bothering me in many situations. I already paid for the game and I still like SC2 way more.
You cant compare sc2 to Diablo Diablo is a game for p2win players and rpg Sc2 is the only rts that has eSports even after shutting the development of the game Stormgate will be a good game if money goes into it and devs update the game Every game will be perfect if you just support it both from consumers and devs team@@jackadam9348
I was checking out the Immortal Gates of Pyre beta last week and it's just SO MUCH BETTER than the current iteration of Stormgate man. Stormgate just doesn't do anything different, the 3 races are basically just copying the homework from SC2 without making it obvious (it is obvious).
For me that game has the same problem as Stormgate, the models of everything are very hard to distinguish. But 3 different races has the most potential to keep it fresh, as everyone hated mirror matchups in SC2.
@@Leonhart_93 I liked the fact that they aren't just straight up Terran clone x Zerg clone x Protoss clone. Also I like how they went with a mix between SC/WC style of completely unique races and the AoE style where one race can have minor difference in their units/tech tree depending on the chosen heroes. In the long run they can have more match up variety in the game with more heroes, while you know for a fact that Stormgate is gonna stuck at 3 races (or whatever number they have at launch) forever. I wouldn't comment on the art style/direction when both games are still in beta.
7:21 so true, everything looks the same and I have no idea what's going on. Same for the buildings, they have no distinct look to me. Somehow the art in total looks...disjointed? Like they have thrown together maps from one game, units from a second, buildings from a third and sprinkled random assets on top
@VNGAMINGTV not all units are in, only some t3 were added yet (none for infernal actually) and they just added something like 30 upgrades all around. More will come for sure. Keep in mind that this will be a live game, not one where we get one expansion every 2 years and only one or twice. There is a good chance that the unit pool will rotate regularly to keep gameplay alive and fresh.
I have been playing SC2 since release and this doesn't look appealing to me at all. I just don't like the art style and the raced don't click either. I am more excited about AOM:Retold.
They have been for years, the entire reason Dawn of War 3 and halo wars 2 were such let downs almost a decade ago was because they tried to cater entirely to Esports crowds
Don't go soft on this lackluster overhyped disappointment. It is not a ''small dev team'' with little budget. They raised a total of $41 million, it's been in development since 2020, and it is made by supposedly RTS veteran devs (remember how they overused the ''made by ex SC and WC devs'' in their marketing?) that should already know what they are doing.
I couldn't hold on and bought early access the game is great and has a great future ahead of it. There are no major bugs, gameplay is smooth, big battles are not confusing, everything is understandable. I like the simplicity, the battles take a lot longer than in SC2, macro is a big thing. So far I had fun with the game even at the early access and I like it a lot. I think it can refresh the whole genre im pretty sure. Game is hard and challenging.
Problem is that SC2 doesn't have a lot of future and it's been slowly dying ever since Blizzard abandoned it years ago. We need RTS games that are currently developed and expanded.
@@Leonhart_93People have been claiming SC2 is dying for about a decade. It’s not going to die until an actual better RTS is made that can replace it. StormGate isn’t doing that.
@@timparks9833 Well it's not booming. It's slowly losing players, and the population is aging. It will look like SC1 in a few years, with only the dedicated players left. It's not like it will be completely dead, but it won't be in a position to take charge into expanding the popularity of the RTS genre.
@@Leonhart_93That’s fair. It’s just never going away until a new game can replace it. It does still get balance patches, but Blizzard doesn’t do them anymore, it’s done by a committee of pro SC2 players. The numbers of players has stayed pretty steady in the past years, with it actually seeing a rise in activity in the past year, from people getting interested in RTS games again with StormGate, but than going back to SC2 since it’s better.
@@timparks9833 Most don't stay playing SC2, because they get ladder anxiety due to the extreme fast pace of the game. Much less if it's their first RTS game, it takes years to become good. The vast majority of those that watch these games admit they haven't played in a very long time, or at all. This is the reason why AoE2 has consistently higher and higher player base according to steam stats, it has a pace very accomodating for total beginners. And also because they constantly update it to keep it fresh.
I think people need to give their criticism, but don't get mad yet. Wait for the response from devs. If the devs change things for the better, praise them heavily. If they do not make good changes, then get mad
Macro panel Roll back Buddy bot Seasonal model Automatic worker management. A team game mode with its own dedicated balance and game design (not yet implemented)
Because there is basically nothing truly innovative within it - at least from what was shown till this point. It is basically a bastard child of Warcraft 3 and SC2. Now, don't get me wrong, this alone is not a bad thing, but the self-proclaimed "next gen RTS" should probably be something more than another copycat with no identity of its own. The closest thing to innovation is automation of worker units but even that is such an incremental change over standard that calling it an "innovation" is downright insulting. Buddy Bot is basically a sophisticated build-order macro in terms of functionality. Macro Panel that allows to build without selecting a worker is basically a feature lifted from various colony sims. Roll Back is a net code, and it is present in fighting games. Beyond that, it looks like the same old dance of SC2 mixed with some WC3 - so block the ramps, kill some creeps and prepare for turbo intense macro requiring monkey reflexes instead of actual strategising.
COD, Battlefield, FIFA, and many other games haven't had any major innovations for years, yet people still keep playing the new releases 🤷. On the other hand, strategy games that innovate, like BAR and Mechabellum, don't have a large player base. You're just complaining for the sake of complaining now.
Its more like what Frostgiant wanted to do while in Blizzard, but mommy Blizz said f*** off cause RTS is not making enough money. These devs literally made Wc3 & Sc2, they are more than welcome to reference thier previous works, its the old Blizzard caring & love for RTS they want to preserve after all
@@LaCroix05 COD, Battlefield and FIFA do not have stupidly high and competitive barrier of entry in multiplayer - RTS games do. Even in largely multiplayer titles, like Age of Empires 2, Company of Heores 2 or Dawn of War 2 - between 5 to 20% people touched the multiplayer AT ALL. Even fewer play it on regular basis. Speaking of innovation - what is innovative in BAR? It is basically a Total Annihilation/Supreme Commander clone. I don't know about Mechabellum, first time I even hear about it.
@@DrLife121It’s definitely not free. Have you seen their pricing plan? If they plan to have as much content as SC2, than it’s going to cost around $400 and take about 33 years to complete. This is before micro-transactions costs even come into play, so if you want any sort of micro-transactions, plan on spending much more than $400 for this game. This is all information that was given to backers. It’s going to be one of the most cash-grab games of all time. Right up there with Diablo Immortal.
@@EsportsStoryteller Unfortunately it feels as warcraft, sad to say it's big downgrade in RTS genre. I did hope it would be my new favourite game, but ...
SC1 remaster has better graphics than this game. it is already 2024 and your graphics is still this bad? SC2 has been released for many years but its graphics is a million times better than this.
@@LaCroix05 dude csgo even updated thier graphics not so long ago. Graphics is the 1st thing we see so it will always be our 1st impression if we like it or not
@@likom9813 Nah that's just your kind that live in very small world and mindset. Gameplay, story, and bgm is the first thing that we rate these days. Graphic IS JUST impression. Because people will still play the game even if it got pixelated graphic like minecraft or roblox. If people only rate with graphic, only 4090 owner will be able to play game 🤷
SG doesn't deserve so much craptalk, it's a cool game that has some potential. But... I don't see how this game in it's current state is supposed to compete with any other good rts games. Being just cool is not enough in such genre. It doesn't have much uniqueness in mechanics, it's not even remotely close to Starcraft's incredibly smooth gameplay, and as a cherry on top it's still looks and sounds like a cheap mobile garbage. Although the game surely will be heavily improved over time, I don't think I'll want to spend a lot time on it any time soon.
Its early access is not a reason to defend the game. The long history of companies hiding behind early access should be enough example on why to be skeptical.
if they are not ready then they should not let players play because everyone has opinion. graphics alone which is the only thing i see right now it is very trash
@@likom9813 If you are not ready then simply don't play. No need to trash talk it. You don't like developer to force things to you, and now you are forcing your opinion to developer.
More like your child like mind is garbage. You can’t get past the graphics and a few weird models, but the core game is awesome. It’s a game you have to put time in, but your attention span is probably used to games that are all flash and no depth. Give it some time, they are continuously improving it and it keeps getting better and better
Nah, that is a brutal hyperbole, don’t be like that, it makes you seem dumb. It is not a very good game, from what I have seen. Definitely not "garbage".
It’s 5/10, it can get better though. I’m just not sure it’s my cup of tea when it comes to the actual fights, but maybe I should watch a few more games.
@@JustDiscisn't the whole point of the game to appeal to a wider audience and try to attract new players to the game? Might as well call this game dead since it's player base is just a bunch of sc2 players.
Let's bring in some positivity in the comments. Art might not be your cup of tea. That is understandable and acceptable. Just a quick reminder that LoL used to look like hot garbage when it was in beta and it's still one of the most successful game ever. Give it a try, once you're playing and enjoying the gameplay you won't be thinking about the art all that much. Basic gameplay is solid and will provide a solid foundation for years to come. Things like maps and balance will improve and change. Not all units are out, map editor will come out and the community will be able to work on great maps (sc2 early maps had issues as well... it took time) The various game mode planned will provide entertainment for pretty much anyone. You can enjoy campaign (and at some point campaign in coop too, for free for your friends), coop maps, introduce the game to your kids and less experienced friends with the buddy bot that you can progressively turn off. There will be custom mods when the editor is out. If you're not convinced then just press pause, go play something else until the game actually hits release (reminder that this is just early access of an unfinished game, whether you like that business model or not) and try it again then. The team is committed to make it into a great experience and they have been listening to the community.
I appreciate your call to optimism. However, I think you're missing the mark on why people are turned off so badly right now. It's not just the artstyle, it's the entire creative direction. The units and campaign are an awkward mashup of previous Blizzard games. Many of them are insultingly unoriginal. They have even gone out of their way to do it. B.O.B's didn't need to have a three letter acronym and say "in the rear with the gear", but they do. The magmadon didn't need an imp riding it like a kodo, but it does. Amara didn't need to hold her pistols like Tracer and have the same blink sound and visual effect, but she does. The campaign didn't need to copy-paste the first mission and the entire plot from WC3, but it does. There are so many examples of this everywhere. And the overall game design is just bland. I remember when they introduced Vanguard, and I counted 6 total movement speed changing abilities right off the gate. And they soon after equalized all sight range values on all units, just to make it even clearer that they don't want to deviate and explore fundamental RTS mechanics.
Bit weird to rank by "difficulty" in a game where no one can play any of the races perfectly. If one were actually easier that would manifest as dominance on ladder (the balance will swing wildly one way and then the other multiple times during early access). The game is as difficult as your opponent's skill level, and every faction has more micro than any human can perfect. Let's nip this tired old "terran hardest race" nonsense in the bud right here. Stutter step ain't that hard.

Basic gameplay is solid and will provide a solid foundation for years to come. Things like maps and balance will improve and change. Not all units are out, map editor will come out and the community will be able to work on great maps (sc2 early maps had issues as well... it took time)
The various game mode planned will provide entertainment for pretty much anyone. You can enjoy campaign (and at some point campaign in coop too, for free for your friends), coop maps, introduce the game to your kids and less experienced friends with the buddy bot that you can progressively turn off. There will be custom mods when the editor is out.
If you're not convinced then just press pause, go play something else until the game actually hits release (reminder that this is just early access of an unfinished game, whether you like that business model or not) and try it again then. The team is committed to make it into a great experience and they have been listening to the community.
I appreciate your call to optimism. However, I think you're missing the mark on why people are turned off so badly right now.
It's not just the artstyle, it's the entire creative direction. The units and campaign are an awkward mashup of previous Blizzard games. Many of them are insultingly unoriginal. They have even gone out of their way to do it. B.O.B's didn't need to have a three letter acronym and say "in the rear with the gear", but they do. The magmadon didn't need an imp riding it like a kodo, but it does. Amara didn't need to hold her pistols like Tracer and have the same blink sound and visual effect, but she does. The campaign didn't need to copy-paste the first mission and the entire plot from WC3, but it does. There are so many examples of this everywhere.
And the overall game design is just bland. I remember when they introduced Vanguard, and I counted 6 total movement speed changing abilities right off the gate. And they soon after equalized all sight range values on all units, just to make it even clearer that they don't want to deviate and explore fundamental RTS mechanics.
I prefer reality
@derpyhooves7349 It's mostly the art direction right now. I don't expect perfect balance when it's on the 0.0.1 version.
Bit weird to rank by "difficulty" in a game where no one can play any of the races perfectly. If one were actually easier that would manifest as dominance on ladder (the balance will swing wildly one way and then the other multiple times during early access). The game is as difficult as your opponent's skill level, and every faction has more micro than any human can perfect. Let's nip this tired old "terran hardest race" nonsense in the bud right here. Stutter step ain't that hard.
As I remember with a release of every RTS people are struggling to differentiate units. So it's a matter of time will it become easier
I don’t agree with this. I’ve never played an RTS besides StormGate where I couldn’t tell the units apart.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
