not awolnation

Devs want to get the point across that they've spent money on Homeworld and licencing the track they went with cost them more. That and they need something new(ish) to try and push the game's relevance in today's market.

*You don't watch the trailer in-game. Oh, and you're already a fan of the series, it's not made for you. Go watch the homeworld 1 story trailer they put out instead. :)

1. Not really the most hip music choice lol

2. I expect orchestra music in my game not houstons top 100 chart.

but...but adagio is timeless...awolnation in another 17yrs will be like ...wtf...did people like this crap ?

I understand the need to modernise, but i personally think they could have picked something better.

Talking of 'pure homeworld' as you were, I wonder if anyone's going to put a fan trailer to this:

It's a pity Gearbox didn't manage to licence it for the re-release.

It better be Adagio for Strings in game, ESPECIALLY for the third mission or I am gona be pissed.

edit: Oh, good it is. Was gona flip my ♥♥♥♥ otherwise since that song is so damn important to the game.

Really it isn't even worth complaining about. It is a trailer and it isn't like it is an injustice to the series, tbh I liked it, but I have to agree I prefer adagio for strings. It doesn't change my perspective on this game or Gearbox negatively in the least as it isn't like it is a feature of the game, just a song for a trailer.
