Why Total War WH40K reveal seemingly kills any hype towards Dawn of War 4?
>>
why did they skip 3 and release 4?
>>
nobody actually likes RTS
especially the janky shit DOW games that people only put up with because it was the only decent 40k game
>>

Gaben forbade the number 3

Not only is the total warhammer 40k going to play worse than DoW4 it's going to be sold piece meal to you in 50 $30 dlcs
>>
>>729359989
have you seen the state of Total Warhammer 3???? They keep saying "please small company please understand" while the game is riddled with bugs like invincible opened doors during sieges
>>
>>729359989
Because everything named "Dawn of War" that wasn't the first one turned out to be dogshit.
Hype levels for DoW4 were there purely out of desperation, like a somali kid being "hyped" for stale bread.
*Any* other 40K RTS has infinitely more chance to be better than DoW4, even something as meh as TW.

DoW 2 was great
>>
>>729359989
While there is no hype from me for dow4 until it is proven to be good due to the abominations that were 2 and 3 i wont be even touching 40k total war. They just dont match together. Dow was perfect. For the setting. Tw is slow glitchy and ass. It works only with melee and as little ranged as possible.
>>
think it has more to do with the fact Total War Warhammer is a bigger release and more recent, in other words you will probably see dicussion of DoW4 increase again when more major news comes out
>>
>>729361193
It was okay.
It also had jackshit in common with DoW1 gameplay, making it irrelevant as a sequel.

Huron is cool tho

In my case, I'm not hyped for DoW 4 because I have played the dev's previous RTS (Iron Harvest)

DoW4 only exists because GW demanded it exists
it's not game devs going "yeah we wanna make a sequel" it's GW going "we want a sequel to advertise the model kits"

it's corporate as fuck, everything is near identical to the designs of the plastic models, the dark angels are just there and they have their primarch with them despite the devs saying that gabriel angelos isn't in the game because he'd be too OP

the blood ravens are effectively getting overshadowed in their own game series because GW wants to push sales of dark angel models
>>
>>729359989
It is of mystery, sire. You connive for answer, you?

>overall nu-40k
The old DoW1 work at 3/4 on raw soul.
Modern 40k had like 5 layers of corporate "optimization" applied onto it since then, guarantying 0% soul.
