It took 13 years for CZcams to recommend this to me.

I will silently wait here for all the people left with a broken soul after the HW3 disastrous campaign and it's writing to discover this one and ponder on what HW3 could have been without brainless writers and producers ruining it for the sake of the "message", DEI and other ruinous ideas that always do only contribute to the death of entire franchises. They had a Gem in their pockets, and now it is nothing but burned dust, scorched into nothingness just like the Kharak was. Rest in Peace, Homeworld. I will remember the good old days till I myself will turn into dust.

Let’s hope Homeworld 3 will turn out to be good

This song has a meditative and wonderous story, set in the endless wakes around a celestial achievement. I can hear the blips and beeps of the research ship, the crunchy, compressed, professional tones of my scout pilots. The dull scream of their fusion torch turning behind them. The Planet Kharak far beneath the Mothersip and Scaffold, whose colors are super aliased. The target probe combusts in orange puffs of heated gas, fading into the void and the scouts drag to a halt, chittering back into formation. The sound plays as much a part as the visuals creating the wonderous atmosphere (vacuusphere?) of Space. It's so rich in tone and story. Textural, it's hooked me like velcro.

Homeworld always made me feel like I was walking on the bones of giants. And cataclysm gave the giant's common cold.

Anyone know the name of the 1st track? Can't find it in the HW2 OST

I'm still not a fan of the final mission. One can't just send in uber-frustrating nuclear missile spewing starfish-like giant superweapons out of nowhere and with no explanation for an endgame like this.

Like Hecatomb, Alien: Engineers, and Command and Conquer: Tiberian Incursion, we sure got robbed. May HW3 cleanse the sins of HW2 when it comes out, hopefully well.

"Epsilon Base" from Deserts of Kharak, anyone? Say what I will about this game's overloaded story and noticeably different gameplay (and it not being Dust Wars), the music is still top notch.

If only there was a remaster of the soundtrack at the very least...

This should be a prequel to Homeworld 2

ARC raiders 😲?

So good to hear this story. Homeworld Lore deserves this. Thank you Michalsky0_0. Subbed, kind regards.

I bet they will release concert at and put it in the game

I've played the game many times, but truth be told, when I saw the title "Raiders of the Arc", I was expecting to hear John Williams music.

Hej można użyć jedynego z nagrań do mojego filmu ?😁

That may happen in HW3, what hasn't happened yet.

"You seek to trap us in a diseased galaxy!"

This is a cool video, I like the synch'd up transitions

So uh, this is kinda awkward. I wrote this plot back in 2005 for a mod called Dustwars. For anyone confused, it was meant as a prequel to an unused script for HW2 called HW Empires. I'm glad people like it though. This was a draft, I think I posted it on relicnews? Crazy.

This game is so ahead of its time. If it released this year for the first time, I would still think it was one of the best games released. No other game comes close in terms of how well made everything about this game was, from the story/lore, to the soundtrack, to the immersion and narrative, to the gameplay and designs. It’s truly the perfect game. Crazy to think it’s already been over 20 years...

Attention carrier Veer-Rak this is Kiith Somtaaw mining vessel Kuun-lan we have arrived in sector 112 and request targeting data..

Ah yes, my favorite game's story concept before they went with the rushed Vagyr story

Timelapse pierwsza klasa :) Mi jeszcze nie wychodzi stabilizacja. Mam jeden filmik timelapse na kanale

this fel similar to what they said will be in hw3 . you will have the galaxy map , you will use the gates and fight for hiigara

Homeworld always had the best soundtracks

calkiem niezle, jednak szkoda ze nie jest to pogrupowane i jest kilka ujac z jednego miasta w roznych czesciach filmiku

This is a cake walk...

Ogrom pracy, gratulujemy!

This is just a story for the dust wars mod surely? Uses loads of concept art from both games.

I believe someone from Gearbox saw this...

Where did you get this concept? Any links or files?

Well that thing actually has artwork very similar to the HW3 trailer...the gate network in particular! :-D

Well, I can see why it was scrapped then:\

"Losing stabilizer control" BOOM

Group 1 under attack. Rev all tubes, we're dumping

This game's story is as much of a masterpiece as the first Homeworld's story is. Homeworld 2 is not as good, gameplay and story wise

This video based on Homeworld2: Dustwars Total Conversion Mod story (written in mid-2007), which precedes original HW: Empire storyline, that has been sadly canceled in 2001. dustwars-story.blogspot.com/ And yes, it's many times more interesting than the prophecies and chosen one stuff from restarted HW2. I really hope that in the HW3 they will finally tell us the story of the brave 15-th squadron :)

Oh Caal-Shto....

Yo what are these songs? They slap

This sounds remarkable. Maybe it will be used for Homeworld 3?

Homeworld 3 has been announced and crowdfunded. maybe it will be placed in this dust wars period. Trailer: czcams.com/video/J675BQaIuQs/video.html CrowdFunding: www.fig.co/campaigns/homeworld3

genial muy bien 🇲🇽

I love these animatics. the sheer scale of, well, everything in the Homeworld universe is absolutely staggering, and I love the general aesthetic.

Warszawy nie da się nie kochać. Połączenie Warszawa+Lato a najlepiej jeszcze noc to jest najlepsze co jest na ziemi.

Homeworld is lowkey just as hardcore as WH40k. Seriously, everything in this game is just...big.

In terms of storytelling I see several problems here. There's too many unrelated events and no unifying storyline, a lack of conflict, an un-fired Chekhov's gun (the first enemies fleeing to Karos and *not* ressurecting some ancient Progenitor relic to take on Hiigara), the Protagonist's faction not being the underdog, too much politicking (not good for games), and even a 20-year time skip in the middle of the story (tells you the story is missing tempo). There's too much backstory compared to the gameplay plot (mentioned at the end) and it's barely even tangentially related. It's lacking the mystique of adventure and the uncovering of ancient artifacts among derelicts that features prominently among HW2 (and is one of its strongest points). For a truly tightly crafted story that would make an epic HW3 game I recommend the complete fanfic Wrath of the Gods (www.fanfiction.net/s/2336255/1/Homeworld2-Wrath-of-the-Gods) (not my story, though I have read it a few times). It has everything you'd want in a Homeworld game, plenty of callbacks to existing characters and factions, and amazing story beats.
