Should I get this or homeworld?

[Grantorino]

I love space games I've only ever played mass effect and kerbal space program. I'm trying to decide if I should get this or Homeworld. I played CIV5 so I like those type of games.

I came from Civ 5 and now i have 2600 hours. Get it.

Homeworld is an old(but not quite ancient(yet)) mission based Real Time Strategy game where you command a fleet of space fairing vessels in a fully vertical and horizontal area of space.

Stellaris is a Sandbox Grand Strategy/Empire building game where you create an empire to expand your territory, interact with other empires, and maybe even win a game.

Do you like giving orders to individual members of a fleet and coordinate attacks while a battle rages on? Go with Homeworld.

Do you like creating an empire and helping it expand and survive within a politically imperfect galaxy? Go with Stellaris.

homeworld is great but once you do the story campaigns youre pretty much done with it. even if you like competitive RTS i bet the multiplayer for that died long ago. its 8 bucks atm though so i'd definately consider it. heck 8 bucks is the price for a cosmetic DLC in this game and it's definitely worth more then that. honestly for 8 bucks id recommend homeworld remastered to anyone with even a passing interest in space games.

this game is much closer to a civ5 style game and you'll likely get a lot of hours out of it.

i mean honestly id say get both and just skip some dlc for this game if you are on a budget.

Distant Worlds beats both Stellaris is and Homeworld. Although if multiplayer is in mind, get stellaris.

I just bought Homeworld Remastered Collection because I like RTS and sci-fi. Of course I have 320+ hours into Stellaris... I recommend Stellaris. Haven’t tried Homeworld just yet.

If you want a quality space 4x then go for Endless Space 2. Constant free DLC good community and dedicated devs.

Kinda curious about this. Why?

Homeworld is awesome but it´s a totally different genre.

Depends if someone wants action and micro-management or not. Also there is Battlefleet Gothic.
