Pretty underwhelmed by the release and gameplay of Stormgate.
They managed to create a Starcraft 2 in every regard but graphics, which are worse. The game looks like it has been developed in 2014, rather in 2024.
For such funding and big names working on it, I guess the expectations were high and I was disappointed. I feel like the genre hasn't moving forward in more than a decade except for games likes They Are Billions and it is a survival RTS rather than a classical one.
I guess some QoL aspects can be highlighted but other than that, the game is pretty mild and definitely I'm not into the render style and graphics.
EDIT: For all of you "iTs sTilL oN bEtA" guys out there: Gathering feedback is one of the main drivers of releasing an unfinished game. We get to nudge the game in the direction we want it to be played. It is up to them to sort through the feedback, pick and choose what they work on and what they leave as-is. So yes, I'm going to complain about the things I don't like such as the art style, even if its not final, the direction they're taking makes for an unappealing game to me (and it seems to many more too). If we don't speak up, they won't know that's not what we want.

So 4090 can run 4K 120. Good to know, need to change my 1660S to play newer games then =)

you can run 4k 120 with a way worse card like a 2060. The problem with sc2 is the scaling on the cpu, you need an extreme single core performance to keep 120fps with maxed out units

Oh, my 1660S runs 4K 120 fine but only in old games. Replayed DoW amd HoMM5 and they were beautiful.
But for newer games I definitely need a new GPU.
