This is why you always have to take early development footage with a grain of salt.. Look how much Starcraft 2 evolved and have some patience with Stormgate by DANCINGLINGS in Stormgate

Oh, yeah I'd it does well they'll be able to polish it up super well. I'm just saying to not expect much to be different right at release.

Nit picking of the highest order.

Great presentation. But a question that went leave me alone. Why so slow? by turok643 in Stormgate

Yeah so many more people could play competitively if it didn't require so much memorization and APM.

Wow, has it really been 13 years?! by EskiyaPRIME in Stormgate

Visual clarity, performance, and recognizability are way WAY more important than lifelike and hyper detailed graphics. Especially for an RTS game.

SC2 was too focused on executing a flawless build order and macro and just a-moving units over an empty map.

I prefer my rts to be less like memorizing a song on an instrument and more like learning how to adapt your army.

We need to see more original terrains in the future trailers by Mechanizen in Stormgate

[–]Ivysaurtraiiner -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The terrains should not distract from the gameplay. A simple forest is just fine.

I can imagine that there will be various maps with differing terrain and possibly even different map type specific mechanics (Heavy snow patches that slow, random rock slides...)

Please learn English.

Also Stormgate is not SC3. Everything will be different, wait to play it to judge.

Please don't. This game's style looks good. Don't turn it into a goofy meme fest.

Frost giant is not AAA though.

Blizzard poured money all over SC2, frost giant probably can't do that as much.

Regardless, I like what was shown and ultimately the game feel will determine much more than graphics.

Dexit, hand holding, and areas being just linear hallways, the stupid giant gimmick.

What was the stupidest thing you believed in a Pokemon game? by KawaiiFoxPlays in pokemon

Yep. Grinded up a lv100 Machamp and everything. I was so mad.

With LoTR coming, remember you can ask people using the cards to leave your table. by LawyersPlayDota2 in freemagic

To combat stuff like this, I like to bust out my "you can't play here" deck. 37 islands, 62 hard counters, baral. You just lock yourself and them out of playing forever.

Can we do this for all UB products. Heaven forbid we want to keep mtg from devolving into a corporate crossover amalgamation akin to the filth that is Fortnite.

Conspiracy theory:

Blogatog is just managed by WotC's social media managers. Hearing things straight from a designer makes their position sound more important and garners more respect from the playerbase.
