Hey - thank you for Dawn of War. My gateway drug into the long dark spiral of plastic and paint despair that is Warhammer 40k. Amazing game.

Hey - thank you for Dawn of War. My gateway drug into the long dark spiral of plastic and paint despair that is Warhammer 40k.
Amazing game.
- nailer 3y agoApparently Boltgun (new FPS) is a 40K game and has been getting rave reviews from FPS youTubers
- omgmajk 3y agoBoltgun is fantastic if you like Quake, it's pretty much what it is. A modern Quake in 2.5D/3D in the WH40K universe.
- izacus 3y agoWH40K: Mechanicus is an excellent modern Warhammer 40k game for people that need a strategy/tactic fix more than FPS :)
- SgtBastard 3y agoAnd the opening cinematic and soundtrack throughout the game absolutely slaps. “… but I am already saved.” shivers
- ragestorm 3y ago+1 for mechanicus. Sleeper game for me.
- deaddodo 3y agoDoW is probably one of the best modern "classic" RTSes. It distilled all of the classic mechanics (resource collection, army management, upgrading, etc) into just refined enough without dumbing things down. It's a shame it progressively got worse with each sequel (focusing more on RPG and MOBA elements).
- anthonypasq 3y agoi mean it really doesnt have much competition does it? the only other notable rts games within the last 15 years were Starcraft 2 and Age of Empires 4
- mrguyorama 3y agoThat you omit/do not know of Supreme Commander only makes it sadder.
- anthonypasq 3y agothis may pain you to hear this, but that game came out 16 years ago
- deaddodo 3y agoDawn of War came out almost 20 years ago. And there have been plenty of RTSes...the genre just lost it's mainstream appeal in general. In this very thread alone, four others have been mentioned.
