As a lover of RTS games, I am cautiously excited. A friend and I were talking the other day and we came to a realization that might sound mundane. Some of the things we miss about older games (specifically RTS) is that balance is so much more important now that a lot of the time, character and uniqueness get lost. If things aren’t as close to perfectly balanced as possible, gamers get real angry. There were some truly unbalanced RTS games that were incredibly fun. Battle for Middle Earth had some great mechanics that were incredibly fun, but I don’t many would say those games were balanced lol

I think after Dawn of War III, caution is the key! But yes, this is certainly one to watch!
