Never played the original Homeworld. But this Homeworld Remastered Collection video is going to make me a believer. In five nutrient-rich minutes, it gives me everything I need to know, from my origin story, to my save-a-species escort mission, to the fighters and capitals I'll be doing it with in real time.
Too many sci-fi strategy games paint with too broad of a brush, sacrificing soul for the sake of the sandbox. But I'm not getting that vibe from Homeworld. It's a big universe out there, but this is a very personal journey, despite the fact that your interface is all radar and third-person spaceship shots.
Homeworld Remastered Collection launches for PC on Wednesday (a slightly off day to hold a launch), February 25.
