So, Halo Wars demo got released yesterday over Xbox Live, and well, it's a really big, "eh" for me. I am not the biggest RTS fan, but do enjoy Relic's work like Company of Heroes, or Dawn of War, and maybe some Age of Empires,
but it just feels, really shallow. Maybe it's just because they are trying to 'dumb it down' for console players, who people think are stupid, but here's a little advice Ensemble and any other game developers. Halo has a huge following, bigger than maybe any other game, everyone knows it. But people who play Halo, 99% of them will not play this game because it is, well, and RTS. So if you are going to make an RTS game, try to at least make one that people who are a fan of the genre, will actually enjoy playing.
Am I being a little harsh, or what did you guys think of the demo?
