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.

Meaby they should just put stormgate in sc2 arcade

[echostarling]

Stormgate is that "move on" girlfriend after a toxic relationship, but that Starcraft still looks so good we keep going back.

[yordank]

So sad that they didn't take risks. Creativity died somewhere in the planing process.

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).

I've been innactive in SC2 for a while, and honestly, this game does not look like its going to bring me back to RTS...

[alfonshasel]

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

Immortal gates of pyre is going to completely crush stormgate and it won't even be close.

[VNGAMINGTV]

its lackluster. i want to like it. hope they add more stuff

[JustDisc]

As soon as I played Celestial I started to fall in love. Find your race and put the time in to get better 👍

[DrLife]

Having a lot of fun with v 0.0.1 so far

[jangr]

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.

[kingmanansala]

Why this is like a cheap copy of Starcraft 2?

[tj]

I know everyone's trying to hype this game up and i wish the hype was real, but SC2 has it beat in every aspect even as it turns almost 15 years old

[KnowWhatTheyKnow]

I hope it’s successful but I’m really disappointed they went with the mobile-game art direction

[FourBit]

Honestly if this is the price for having a barely decent new RTS, its not worth it. eSports doing more harm to games than good lately.

[francis]

Gates of Pyre did a better Job at replicating StarCraft than Stormgate

[Netbug]

They turned corporate art into a game.

[christianblair]

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.

[alkrimiy]

I choose Vanguard from the purely esthetics perspective. It turns out their gameplay is also great.
