CarrionCrow: Honestly not sure yet. Loaded it up for a run soon, but haven't gotten to it.
Looks interesting, got it through a DRM-free Humble thing months ago.
Also, if you've got the same wallpaper, kudos to you for your choice in sweet Shadowrun images. -laughs-
Was going to mention this at some point - Noticed what you were looking at earlier while running through sale pages. Suggestion (if you have the coin, feel so inclined and won't get buried in duplicates, of course) - go for the 70 dollar franchise pack. It's what I'd run with if I didn't have bits and pieces of the whole thing.
DOW 1 is definitely worth it, even with the rehash fiesta that is Soulstorm.
Additional - shut up, brain. You saw what our desktop looks like. I have neither the time, the inclination, nor the sanity to do a full runthrough of Dark Crusade AGAIN.
Would love to, but the main problem is coin, duplicates, not so much, I only own the original DoW and DoW:DC.
Also, I'm not so keen on the multitude of DLC, most of which are skins.
That might sound strange coming from a WH40K fan, but I never got into the wargame itself, too expensive. But I fell in love with the over-the-top ridiculously grimdark (they coined the term), cranked up, not to 11, but to 23 setting.
Nowadays I think it has imploded under the weight of its own popularity and a-holes like
your spiritual liege breaking the codexes to benefit their favourite chapters. Well Rogue Trader was and will always be freaking awesome.
You know the surface of Chronus is ripe for another black crusade. Let Chaos swarm the planet and claim it for the ruinous powers.
