unlabelledView post →In celebration of Homeworld 3's final update I wanted to re-share this documentary I was honored to participate in as part of the ramp-up to the game's launch. Homeworld is a special game and special franchise for me, and it was a joy to share why. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQHt...
unlabelledView post →Look last week I thought I had a bad idea for marketing Homeworld 3 that revolved around a musical "Bennie and S'Jets" trailer but I think it'd be better than releasing the game straight into witness protection.
unlabelledView post →Hey! I'm a game dev working on Homeworld 3 as a senior designer. I'm helping to make War Games, the cooperative, roguelite mode. Also I got to talk to press about it and that was super cool!
unlabelledView post →This game goes hard. The lore and story are FASCINATING to me. Bummer Homeworld 3 sucked... Long live Hiigara And remember Kharak.
unlabelledView post →A sneak peek at the PvE combat of Homeworld 3 from Heather Wald at Games Radar includes a few kind words about the original Homeworld. :) More than 20 years later, still very proud of the work I did to build that universe, and happy to see the franchise still getting love! #gamedev #narrativedesign
unlabelledView post →Mostly because I'm revisiting my Homeworld board game concept again, but also from contemplating the date of the IP in the aftermath of Homeworld 3.
unlabelledView post →Homeworld is the game that flicked the switch in my brain to learn how to make games myself. My first internship was even with Kerberos Productions, with much of the team that built Homeworld: Cataclysm. Today, Homeworld 3 goes live for the first public wave of players. I can’t wait to dive in!
unlabelledView post →THIS GAME GAVE ME NIGHTMARES AS A KID. As part of my quest to revisit all the Homeworld games before Homeworld 3 comes out next month, tonight, I'm streaming Homeworld: Cataclysm on my Twitch channel below! www.twitch.tv/docvivileandra #vtuber #envtuber #vtuberen #vsky

unlabelledView post →Homeworld 3 1.3 is out now! Tons of fixes and improvements (plus DLC, if that's your thing) and major enhancements for modders! Game is on-sale for 50% off too! youtu.be/cDq0RfdbF9M
unlabelledView post →Homeworld 3 came out on Friday if you bought the $80 bundle, but today it's down to the regular price of $60. It was great to play a new game in such a series I've loved for decades. Hell, the very first thing I ever wrote for PC Gamer in 2004 was a blurb about a Star Wars mod for Homeworld 2.
unlabelledView post →If your game demands Starcraft 2 esports player-level APM, I don't want it lmao (maybe a bit controversial as well, but I honestly think most RTSes live or die by their campaign more than their multiplayer - Homeworld 3 died an ignominious death because of its campaign, for example)
unlabelledView post →cgameawards.com/nominees#bes... Homeworld 3 Won Best Tech/Innovation award at the Canadian Game Awards! I'm so proud of the team and this a huge feather in my cap as well @bbigames.bsky.social @gearboxofficial.bsky.social #Homeworld3 @cgameworld.com
unlabelledView post →Sooo Homeworld 3 is a game I've waited 5 years since kickstarting and even longer since the last numbered game.. I'm deeply emotional about this space universe ever since it got me crying when I was 12.. It's a wonderful new dawn, to a new journey across the stars, I share with this screenshot. 🥺💛
unlabelledView post →Howdy folks! Figured first post on a new platform should probably be an introduction! I'm iain. I am a video game producer (currently Lead Producer on Homeworld 3 at Blackbird Interactive). I am also an avid photographer, and love shooting #landscapes, #Astrophotography, and #wildlifephotography.
unlabelledView post →It's here!!! Ran through the tutorial and a war game over my lunch break, but will probably be streaming the Campaign tonight once I get out from under work. #Homeworld3
unlabelledView post →So happy to finally be able to announce this: we're partnering with mod.io to provide in-game UGC for Homeworld 3 on day one. This has been a major focus of mine for a long time now, so really happy the news is out there!
unlabelledView post →Finally talked a group into a play of TTRPG Homeworld: Revelations and excited about it! Ever since my first shot at this I felt the game was very unsung. Cursed by a bad intro one-shot and co-release against the failed Homeworld 3. It does cool things and I've been wanting to run it again
unlabelledView post →show me a game that came out when you were 12 Homeworld, such a sci fi space opera masterpiece. 3d graphics, 3d strategy, I cried so hard at mission 3, first time a game's story shocked me and hit me that hard... Can it be May for Homeworld 3 yet?

unlabelledView post →If you REALLY like some genre, you'll probably pick up the game. However, I pay attention to Steam positives/negatives. If it's something I was looking forward to, such as Homeworld 3, and it got bad reviews, I typically skip buying it. Such a shame...
unlabelledView post →So, random question: Is anyone interested in a Homeworld 3 Steam Key? I still have an extra one, and none of my friends wanted it. I know the campaign is apparently kinda bad, but I think the game, mechanically, is supposed to still be amazing? If you like space RTS stuff. 🤷♂️
unlabelledView post →Ironically, the only reason I replayed Deserts of Kharak was to prepare for Homeworld 3. Whatta dud that game turned out to be. Too bad.
unlabelledView post →Watching Mandalore Gaming's review of Homeworld 3 and I'm so glad I skipped it. I don't even understand what they've done with this. Who is this game for? Does anyone like it? I'm just left more saddened than I was with Homeworld 2. What the flying fuck? #homeworld3 #mandaloregaming
unlabelledView post →Dove straight into Homeworld 3 PvP this morning and it’s WILD. Games are over in 15-20 minutes, large engagements start up super quickly, the map design forces you into mid to keep up on resourcing even on the larger maps, it’s looking like this game is going to be a lot of fun to cast. Excited.
unlabelledView post →I've been playing a lot of Homeworld 3 over the past couple of weeks! It's a fun game that does a great job providing tactical gameplay and some compelling characters, even if the narrative can feel uneven. www.windowscentral.com/gaming/pc-ga...

unlabelledView post →Been trying a few demos on Steam this week, stand out ones for me have been Breachway (similar to FTL), Solar Expanse (High Frontier as a videogame) and Pacific Drive (I don't even know!). Homeworld 3 is whatever, the one match I tried didn't even work so I stopped bothering.
unlabelledView post →So tired! Worked a lot today! I'm going to get some sleep... I'd like to hear more or know more about Homeworld 3. Has anyone played a beta, alpha or anything of sorts? Do you know if it's multiplayer is going to be good? I'm excited for that game! #vtuber #gaming
unlabelledView post →Homeworld 3 is such a pretty game. Just extremely frustrated that the games control scheme doesn't always work. Always feel like the camera can't zoom out far enough. Should probably try the newer control scheme, but then you loose all the hotbuttons from the classic scheme.
unlabelledView post →Thanks Chuck, much appreciated! Spaceships in VR always get a lot of my attention, even when other ports to PC from mobile do not. Here's hoping the game gets enough of an uplift to be worthy of a full playthrough. I'll be comparing it to UEVR for Homeworld 3 when I get the chance to play both.
unlabelledView post →Not enough of the games here are good enough to warrant the purchase. I like pacific drive, Zau, Cavern of Dreams, and Gravity Circuit; but the rest are origin keys and a game that is still a mess after it's latest update and now abandon by the devs (Homeworld 3),
unlabelledView post →Nope. Before Homeworld 3 I can't even remember the last time I paid full price for any game I own.... Backlog is too huge for FOMO.
unlabelledView post →The only multiplayer shooter game I was ever into was TF2, I was a pretty good engineer. So Marvel Rivals doesn't really keep my interest. Again it feels like I should be playing what is popular right now but I can't. Even when I was trying to get through Homeworld 3 I had more viewers but I can't
unlabelledView post →Well. I made the mistake of liking a game again. Loved Homeworld 3 and checked out the trailer for the new content and all I see are hate comments about how the game killed the franchise. :(
unlabelledView post →Blackbird Interactive has launched its swan song for #Homeworld3 today, including a massive free update and new DLC packs that add fleets to the War Games mode. I checked it all out and came away feeling like this is a solid curtain call for the game. www.shacknews.com/article/1423...
unlabelledView post →this is hard to watch... I loved Homeworld. We played it so much in multiplayer. It was the first real space-space strategy game with all 3 dimensions being relevant. Maybe I should finally get it and see for myself.... #homeworld #homeworld3 #gaming #games
unlabelledView post →That is cool! My bucket list is a AAA game with mocap! My first (and only) VA credit was with Homeworld 3, but it wasn't a named character or anything, not like with my film stuff. Recording in the studio is too much fun. This is awesome. Going to go check it out.
unlabelledView post →OK, #TTRPG folks, let's play a game: What are your top 3 dream licenses for a TTRPG you'd love to write? 1. Babylon 5. 2. Homeworld. 3. Farscape. (Yes I know all 3 had games, but I was unimpressed with any of them.)
unlabelledView post →So I just learned that Homeworld Mobile was shut down. Not gonna lie, I think it was a better game than Homeworld 3 when I saw the shitshow it became. So, why not someone come up with an upgrade system, and allow for the ships of the different factions be available as playable races in Homeworld 2?
unlabelledView post →Cryptmaster piece? Homeworld 3 art book? Kagurabachi? TF2 fixing their game (for now)?
unlabelledView post →I know that I had more people check out my streams and even chat when I played Homeworld 3 but it got so bad that I looked for any reason to change the game. I know that if I want to have eyes on me I should play newer games but most of them don't interest me or don't run for me. #streamerproblems
unlabelledView post →Early in Homeworld 3: "[Hyperspacing through a rock] shouldn't be possible!" Bitch, that was literally the plot of the last game.
unlabelledView post →Alright, lab rats, I think we're on track to finish the game tonight! I'm playing more Homeworld 3 on my Twitch channel below! www.twitch.tv/docvivileandra

unlabelledView post →I *almost* need a "thumb sideways" button but I can't give this game a thumbs up. Why should you listen to me? For background, I beta tested Homeworld for Relic back in '98-99. I've played every single PC Homeworld game. I've sunk *hundreds* of hours into playing vanilla Homeworld, Complex, and Every. Single. Star Trek mod that anyone has ever made for Homeworld and Homeworld: Remastered. That's to say: I adore love Homeworld/Homeworld 2. Over 25 years of PC gaming, they may be my all-time…
unlabelledView post →One of the greatest games series. Still would love to get a game of the TTRPG going someday. Also looking forward to Homeworld 3 of course. You'll lose me in May. Though I'm actually away for work for a few days on the 13th goddamnit.

unlabelledView post →Thanks to @natclayton.bsky.social I found out Homeworld 3 has a demo. Some thoughts after giving it a good go: - I appreciate that we have a lot of accessibility options on first boot but the UI desperately needs a scaling option as it's huge to the point of limiting the game view.

unlabelledView post →Wanna talk about the economics of dead games, this is what blind faith looks like. They're, wildly, still selling Homeworld 3 for ~$60 It's a multiplayer-leaning game with about 50-100 concurrent players max for 2 years.
unlabelledView post →The Homeworld series is old but gold. I would NOT bother with Homeworld 3 though, from what I have heard, Gearbox utterly dropped the ball and just made a frankly bad game.
unlabelledView post →And I’m aware Homeworld 3 exists I just… feel like it’s a mediocre game
unlabelledView post →I would suggest the Homeworld Series (except 3). It's got a great story, great music, gameplay is pretty interesting for an RTS that came out of 1999. Avoid Homeworld 3 though, it's an overpriced VERY generic feeling game that was abandoned by the devs.
unlabelledView post →I've also heard that Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak (which takes place on planet instead of in space) is also very good. Funny enough, it was made by the same team as Homeworld 3, before that game.
unlabelledView post →Blackbird Interactive has announced that following Homeworld 3, the real-time strategy Crossfire game, Crossfire: Legion, will be delisted from Steam on August 18. Active development will conclude as well as support for the game. Link - bit.ly/40sw58W #CrossfireLegion #Crossfire
