Will relic's DoW get them the reconition they deserve?

First off lemme tell u how i came across homeworld.
It was a cold rainy night.... (ghostly sounds)
and I was at Target, I really wanted a cool game for my computer, I looked around and saw Sim city 3000, man I wanted it soo much. Yet it was way over what I could afford so I bought a $20 game called "Homeworld". I later found out it was worth way more than the price and way better than SimCity.

The point I want to make is that HW was not as famous as it should've been and how close was I to not getting it in the first place.


But i think with many dedicate Warhammer 40k fans out there the'll start buyin the game, and they' ll tell there 40k friends and so on.

I hope it will put Relic into the list of game companies that " thier games advertise themselves" category. :guitar:

I disagree a little,HW got quite a bit of recognition.Contary to what other people think a half million copies is not too bad of a run.It only pales in comparision to the mainstream games out there like SC,which a game almost never seems to match.

And than there was the "revolutionized the RTS genre" thingy ;) .

*Hopefully* the 40k fanbase,which is a lot bigger than even I anticipated,will also buy future relic games based on their judgement of DoW.But we don't know anything about that yet! :)

what? MORE recognition for relic??

jeez, don't let the fact they have a habit of making insanely good games go to their heads :P

i think it will help sell games down the road for relic, i see this game doing very well..maybe not on the level of SC but i think it will hold its own against big name titles. wich will sell relics games based on there name alone like blizzard and so forth.
