Stormgate: Celestials Faction Hands-On Preview

Ойындар

StarCraft-inspired RTS Stormgate has just revealed a new playable faction: the Celestial Armada, who consist of angelic artificial forms inhabited by the souls of a hyper-advanced alien race. And as we found out, they play quite a bit differently from anything we've seen in an RTS like this so far. Previewed by Leana Hafer

    "They have an upgrade that grants them the Rollout ability, reminiscent of the droiedekas from Star Wars. They also explode upon death, dealing damage in a radius." But definitely not reminiscent of the Baneling from Starcraft 2.

    Gameplay is king but out of all possible races and themes for this game they picked blizzard known properties races. Kinda tired of the aesthetic of humans, shiny aliens/elves and demons/bugs.

    Stormgate is starting to feel like a it is a futuristic Diablo RTS with WarCraft 3's art style. However the team really needs to work on the unit and building designs for Celestials. It is quite uninspired and boring. The Celestials feel like they are the Purifiers Protoss Faction from StarCraft 2
