it was never alive tho

Sitting here, laughing and playing DoW 1.

Why did they keep with the dumb moba style shit?

>implying it didn't die on launch

I am amazed they didn't give official word on pulling the plug earlier. Just terrible. Also according to steamspy, it only sold up to 500k, less than half of Dow2 and Dow1.

>Have the guy who made Dark Crusade create a brand new Dawn of War game.
>It fails.

SOULSTORM >>>>> DARK CRUSADE
FUCKING CONFIRMED, GET FUCKED YOU DC IDIOTS!

Was half price on steam not even a month after it's release.

>never made a new Last Stand

i'll never not be mad about this

Jonathan Dowdsewell and Jonny Ebbert were involved in DC, not Phil Boulle. Or at least Phil wasn't in terms of a higher up position.

He was the guy responsible for the campaign, which is the only part of Dark Crusade anyone here has ever played.

>Blood Bowl outlives the Dawn of War Series

What a time to be alive.

Reminder that Relic is developing Age of Empires 4

Then that's just tragic cause besides Winter Assault, Dark Crusade was my favourite of the campaigns alongside Retribution with the Orks . Amazed how it went so downhill.

>Blood Bowl still exists
>Still no Blood Bowl 40k
Come on Games Workshop, make a Blood Bowl 40k vidya already!

I actually totally forgot about that.

Guy got high on the "reviving the RTS" horse. Massive fan of the armchair designs by Wayward Strategist and others like him.

I legitimately prefer Lord Borak the Despoiler over Abaddon the Despoiler.

RTS fans sure do hate RTS game, huh

The RTS games cannot ever be revived because they would have to be dumbed-down for pad controls.

>dow3
>rts
user...

People just wanted a regular RTS with many factions and Last Stand.

It's not really that hard.

thinking DotAcloneshit is RTS is like thinking capeshit is film

some of the oldest rts games were on consoles user.

>with many factions
>It's not really that hard.

How is it being 13 years old and comletely naive?

>it's not a Starcraft clone so it's not an RTS!
this is what I'm talking about.

Damn, so Age of Empire 4 is THAT massive of a project for Relic?

when are we getting a real sequel to broodwar? obviously this moba shit would never work

Nobody gives a fuck about balance. Just like Command and Conquer Generals wasn't balanced. Just poop out many different units.

Why did they give him the WC3 paladin animations?

get fucked 40k retards

>it's an RTS because I say so!
I could call Dark Souls a JRPG but that would be only slightly less stupid than calling DoW3 a RTS.

Offering 50% off to everyone via vouchers, less than a month after release, was when they should have called it a bad job

It's called Starcraft 2

totalbiscuit said that it was an rts.

>The sense that all was not well with Dawn of War 3 was heightened by the discovery that project lead Phillipe Boulle parted ways in September not just with DOW3, but with Relic as a whole
>mfw

Guy has jumped ship full throttle!

>Korean APM simulator
No thanks blizzshits

quality shit post

Really? Well fuck, then I rescind all my previous claims.

Fuck. I just wanted more story. 40K fan in a country with no tabletop community is suffering

>He went to Capcom Vancouver

Who's ready for dead rising 5 to surprise the world by somehow being shittier than 4?!

Canadians should be banned from making video games.

i mean he has a lot more subscribers than you do user

It'll be shit

Generals only had 3 factions and even less units than DoW3.

DoW1 also had less units in total, they were just spread out among 4 factions.

No RTS game came out with a bajillion factions and units, that's always only after a few expansions.

My mom said it wasn't.

it's a shit game but it's still an RTS anybody who says it's a moba or even moba-like is retarded.

>Nobody gives a fuck about balance. Just like Command and Conquer Generals wasn't balanced. Just poop out many different units.
You're a fucking idiot and speaking out your ass.

shut the fuck up you braindead retard, DoW3 is a fucking abomination. just because those mongoloids at relic tried to make a RTS (which it fails spectacularly at) doesn't mean RTS fans should buy it. it's a fucking trash game. nobody should ever buy a game just because it's of a specific genre (or tries to be)

your shitty ass bait and overall stupidity is making me irrationally angry, fucking kys

>I could call Dark Souls a JRPG but that would be only slightly less stupid
Are you fucking retarded? You can't just decide it's a WRPG because it's not turn based.

>it's not an RTS because I say so!
RTS fans have to be the most autistic fanbase there is. You own retard obsession with every game needing to be exactly like SC is what killed the genre.

Nobody played them back then. The Golden age is mostly PC-only games utilizing PC control scheme. Making an actual Age of Empires 4. A game that plays like the old games, but is more refined and upgraded would be impossible today because it would mean skipping on the multi-platform release.

it's basically the same as DOW1, stop fucking whining

ARPG, you nugget munching rim licker.

every game NOT being stacraft 1 killed the genre

it is a Starcraft clone, shit is tremendously similar

you dumb nigger, you could apply that extremely vague list of criteria to literally almost any RTS, fuck off

if it was a starcraft clone it might actually be popular/good you retard

>it's a shit game but it's still an RTS anybody who says it's a moba
Yeah, they're retarded it's not a Moba.
>even moba-like is retarded.
You should have stopped just a bit sooner and I wouldn't get to call you an idiot. being "like" something is not a concrete thing. It can practically mean anything short of being "exactly like" it. So anyone that says this, that has even a single mechanic unique to Mobas that is present in the game, can say it has become more "Moba-like" as in "it has been made more similar to X" that's the definition of "like" you're an idiot.

>list of criteria to literally almost any RTS
THAT'S BECAUSE THAT IS THE DEFINITION OF T HE GENRE YOU FUCKING REDDITOR

>nu-males defending bad games

It's moba like in the same way Dark Souls is an FPS-like. They both share a single trait.

Dark Souls is basically a JRPG, stop fucking whining

Consoles and influx of players in the 00's killed the genre. After Play Station 2 and later X-Box 360 made developing multi-platform games much more lucrative for western developers everyone who was previously focusing mostly on PC games had to make a jump.
FPS games survived without a scratch, turn-based strategies mostly didn't, pnp adventure games died, RTS died, isometric RPG died, action RPGs were ok. The entire reason HoMM series was sold to Jews at Ubisoft was because 3D0 never succeeded in moving to consoles despite their many attempts.

So what is their future now?

it IS a jrpg you fucking mongoloid, you level up and the game was made in japan

I love that people who supported this shitshow get fucked over, well deserved.

How is Dark Souls not a jRPG? It's an RPG from Japan.

Joining THQ in the dustbin.

it IS an RTS you fucking mongoloid, you build things and the game was made by relic

Currently playing DC as Guard. Top comfy.
DoW3 never happened. It was all a dream.

That was PR to make people keep buying.

Making AOE 4

How is the game being made by Relic relevant?

How is the game being made in Japan relevant?

they're a flop away from bankruptcy according to a butthurt due on glassdoor, surely it won't take more

J in JRPG stands for Japanese.

Remember the trailer?
Why are we still here, just to suffer?

>terminator armor capable of doing fucking summersaults and backflips
No remorse whatsoever.

R in RTS stands for Relic.

venerate the immortal emperor

It stands for Real

>i lost the argument so i'll just shitpost instead

No, pretty sure it's Relic. Give me 10 minutes to edit wikipedia and then check the RTS page.

Damn shame about DoW3, it really has potential and if its supported by expac it could become something good.

AoE4 is now their only hope. Any news about that recently?

Honestly, it was the art style that killed it.
There was a massive fucking disconnect in marketing. That first trailer had everyone hyped, then we got a game that LOOKED like a cartoonish MOBA.

If Dawn of War III looked ANYTHING like it's Trailer it would have done a lot better, but the super cartoonish art style pretty much killed all hype for it as soon as gameplay was shown. Arguably, it actually looks worse than DOWII.

totalbiscuit said that rts = real time strategy though

It's still Real Time Strategy - I've checked

>remove what makes Warhammer games popular
>no one likes it
??????????????????????

I said give me 10 minutes you chucklefuck. I can't edit the page in one minute. Fucks sake, you people demand too much.

Ah yes, the relic timed strategy.

Well, DoW3 certainly is a relic.

IT'S STILL REAL YOU FUCKBOI, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU EVEN DOING

>newfags who started playing rts with starcraft II
Relic invented relic time strategy games, it stands for Relic, deal with it nerds

FUCK YOU, I'M LEAVING THE PAGE AS IS JUST TO SPITE YOU.

what happened to relic? they used to be good

>So what is their future now?
EA

That video highlights there is room for a 40k FPS. With that level of intensity it would be 10/10.

>no Chaos
Didn't care for it when I heard about that. How the FUCK do you have a dawn of War game without chaos? They had the best lines
>WE NEED A NEW DRIVER
THIS ONE IS DEAD!
