    I was wondering why HW3 was “controversial” and apparently I didn’t realize:

    1. It’s been released.
    2. It’s worse than the first 2
    3. Because Gearbox is publishing it!

    Thanks Randy! Fucking grease weasel ruins another great franchise.

      One if my saddest game related moments this year: The release of Homeworld 3.

      This video sums it all up well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuonl50R6Eo

      Allow me to do this one more time:

      sigh

      RIP Homeworld 3… you could have been amazing.

        I didn’t realise it went so poorly. I was watching trailers thinking it looks awesome. No wonder it all just dropped off the map

    Good move, too bad it’s tied to an incredibly bad game that ruins the franchise. Thanks a fucking lot Randy you sleazeball. Never trust Gearbox with anything.
