Liquidation RTS

Pulls you in from the get-go. Impressive mixture of old and new, nostalgia and innovation. Already a great game, can't wait to see it blossom in full release.

Insanely promising RTS, especially for us oldies who remember WC3 Ladder. This can only get better, I can tell.

I played warcraft II & III and starcraft I & II for years, dawn of war a bunch as well. This is a love letter to those games. It plays smoothly even though it's a work in progress. Have fun !

Good game but it needs more cooking.

fun gameplay, and I like how the story is presented in a timeline. I wish more info was availible from a wiki or game menu like a codex as to follow up on changes to the units and plan strategies but is definitely a matter of time for that

Its very similar to the old school RTS games, if you like Starcraft or Warcraft you will probably like this. As for the review someone left saying their GPU is overheating, my CPU peaked at 67c and GPU 62c while playing through the first 4 missions. Maybe an issue to be aware of if you are running older hardware.

I play every RTS that comes out no matter what and I started this with zero expectations and this is my favorite one imo since WC3/Starcraft, especially since it is early access with a solid foundation and not to mention, I am very impressed this is done by one guy.

So far I have played a few campaign missions and several skirmishes. Liquidation has that WC3 feel to it but with its own take on RTS. I like the simplicity of the resource gathering so you can focus on building up your army. I also enjoy being able to roam around the map clearing neutral camps to level up my heroes. Certain neutral camps will drop items to buff your hero stats or give you quick boosts. I haven't played enough to see how in depth those items are or their stat modifications. But so far, it has been fun. I have played as two different factions and each have two heroes from what I have seen. Unit upgrades seem to be where the differences between the factions really start to shine. The ones I have played both have melee and ranged options. But the weapon modifying upgrades can make the differences much more pronounced. I would like to see an option to have a random hero when starting a skirmish. Its possible this option exists and I missed it. I'd also like to see a map editor at some point (Dota 3 map?), which may also exist. Overall, this is a very solid EA title and I look forward to not only seeing where it goes, but playing it as it is right now. If you are a fan of RTS, this one is worth a try. It is worth the price even if you exclude the early discount. Edit: Im also running this on an old laptop and it seems to run well. It is also nice to have a game release where the audio isn't defaulted to maximum so you are deafened upon startup and have to click through so much to be able to turn things down.

Early impressions: I like it! Adding this here to boost those positive review numbers up, because it and the team deserve it! We love Lamia!
