What went so wrong? It had a great chance to fill a niche between Company of Heroes 2 and the engoodening of CoH3 yet it fell flat on its face.

Are the campaigns good at least?

shit balance
tiny scale
its not even the fun sort of shit balance where you have stuff that's just wildly powerful there's just the mechs being varying levels of useful and everything else being completely useless since they cant scratch mechs in the least while you're controlling like a third of an average CoH match's worth of units at the most
hence DoW4 will be shit

They clearly gave up on the campaign halfway through because they were concentrating way too hard on competitive balance. Stop trying to make RTSes that appeal to tourneyfags. The "best" ones weren't trying in the first place.

Appealing to single player fags is bount to fail because RTS is a multiplayer genre, and IH was the casualized diet coke version of CoH which does not interest the multiplayer hardcore crowd that actually buys games
>>

It was singleplayer focused, so it failed horribly like every other RTS in the past 20 years that fell for the singleplayer scam.

Every single RTS that had ever the slightest relevance did.
There are no counter examples.

They failed to nail the CoH infantry mechanics. They just made clunky mechs and then gave up trying to make everything work smoothly. Wasted potential.
