Just beat Dawn of War. Holy shit it was good. Which of the sequels/expansions are worthwhile?
>>
Get Soulstorm then download the mod ultimate apocalypse. Make sure that the tyranids/daemon/daemonhunters packs are part of it.
>>
Get Dawn of War and all of it's expansions. Winter Assault has a hard as balls campaign, Dark Crusade has an interesting single player and Soulstorm has the best mods/multiplayer.

Dawn of War 2 may tickle your fancy as well if you care about the over the top nature more than the actual strategy. Oh, and never choose chaos you fucking heretic.

Soulstorm and then Dawn of War 2 + expansions. Don't bother with DoW3.

>Don't bother with DoW3.
Why?
>>
>>386729162
It's shit

>>386729219
Why?
>>
>>386729162
They tried to make something that would appeal to fans of 1, fans of 2 and bring in a wide new auidence. It fails at everything because the devs were trying to keep too many balls in the air.

Is it really that bad? I mean, even for a fan of w40k universe?
>>
>>386729459
>Is it really that bad?
No, but it's not good. Which is the problem because it's so bland there's no reason to put in any time playing it when you could just go back to DoW 1 or 2.

>dumbed down MOBA-inspired (their own words) game mechanics and modes
>campaign is a glorified multiplayer tutorial
>horrible art direction
>vastly inferior VA with many of the series' iconic characters not reprising their roles
>Relic attempting to pander to eSports when they can't balance a game to save their lives
>you can't even rotate the fucking camera like you could in 2004 in DoW1

Avoid at all costs
>>
>>386729459
If you are a fan of Orkz, no. They are the highlights of the game

If you are a fan of the universe in general, it will make your blood boil.
>>
>>386727739
This guys know what he's talking about:
>>386728257
2 is more of a tactics game with very minor rpg elements. It's still a very good game. Don't listen to the haters.
Never played 3 but it flopped hard and from all the videos and streams I watched it deserved to.
>>
>>386729552
What did they fuck up this time?
>>
>>386727739
>>386729631
Oh also 2 has Last stand which is a fun little coop last stand mode. You pick a character and fight against increasingly difficult waves, level up that character and get better gear.
>>
>>386729631
> a very good game
Nah.
not "very".
>>
>>386729459
>even for a fan of w40k universe?
Especially if you're fan of 40k universe. Campaign, writing etc is fucking retarded.
>>
>>386730140
Ackshully DoW2 is great.
>>
>>386727739
All of them but DoW3 as it is now.

Check back once you have played them all, it has a tiny chance to improve until then.
