A very good sequel worthy of the original
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Rather than follow the same formula as the original, the developers have struck out in a tangent while keeping the same basic graphics engine and look and feel of the earlier universe. This time you command a single underdog spacecraft, but with a serious amount of ongoing customization to the ship possible through continued research. The individual missions are more challenging than before as well, since the underdog status forces you to employ the "right" strategy or else. You can't just slug it out toe to toe using a superior force in most of the missions. It can be a bit frustrating from this standpoint if you get stuck for a solution. Hints would have been nice as an option for those times.
Stunning enhancement upon a stunning original
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Frankly, a sequel to a fantastic game tends to completely screw up the concepts of the original in the search for a quick buck.The design team of Homeworld: Cataclysm, however, earned every last buck that anyone has spent on this game.Stunning graphics (my non-gamer fiancee even likes to watch)! Outstanding sound! Even better gameplay!Everything the original has, Cataclysm has more of. The only thing that annoyed me was the voice acting of the female voice aboard the command ship; it was a bit wooden. Otherwise, it was feature film quality. I bought it a long while ago, and sometimes I like to play through it again, just for kicks.
