imageGreetings! We need your help!

This year we have SIX games (not including Star Control) that are being released or going into early access this year.

We want to make sure we highlight the coverage these titles get on the major game sites that would traditionally cover these titles.

Please comment below on any sites you think I’m missing that have substantial traffic that you think are likely to cover PC games as well as ones you would like us to talk to.

I second Quill18...probably one of the best 4X / Strategy youtubers.

Scott Manley plays a variety of space-oriented games:

Stickied this post and I'll be helping to update the post to keep up with the suggestions.

Wait, why did SpaceGameJunkie and SpaceSector both get added when we (eXplorminate) have more coverage of both your main games and are a 4X-centered site?

We also almost have 700 members in our Steam group. We have quite a few LP's of Sorcerer Koing and GC3 footage too.

It really sucks to be snubbed like that... 

Granted, we're in the middle of a website upgrade and a bit of content is missing, but we have covered your games much more so than just about any site, if not every other site.

I always enjoy it when any combination of quill18, arumba, mathasgames, northernlion, enterelysium baertaffy and Shenyrry2 play a multiplayer game together.

 

 

Also, some of those old SC2 casters like day[9] or huskystarcraft might be interested in some new life for some multiplayer action as well.  In particular I can totally see day[9] doing a 'day[9]'s day off'  of subscriber multiplayer battles of OTC.

 

Scott Manley is also awesome. Not sure if anything in that list is totally up his ally thou. maybe one or two games of OTC.

Relax friend. I am updating this post (helping Brad) while working on many other projects so this is a continual WIP.

I'm not upset, Island Dog, just passionate. This genre is my favorite by far and my group spends a lot of time and effort working on our site. It would just be nice to see that it's recognized, especially when you've included two websites that are obviously in the same "size" category and also because we do spend time covering your games when many others do not. 

 

I apologize if I came off in any other way.

As promised, I have made overview videos of SK and GC3, which people have seen, plural. Some of them weren't even spambots.

Really happy to see Shadow World is still in the game.

on Feb 11, 2015

Updated again.

on Feb 11, 2015

Just tell us about that game A already, ffs.

on Feb 11, 2015

Sounds good   I'll get Sorcerer King sometimes and maybe Galactic Civilizations III on a cheap sale when you can control battles more.

Offworld Trading Company sounds horribly boring 

 

 

Game [A] makes me hope for an RTS with atleast the same pace as Age of Mythology (it's still great except for the balance). You bought Ensemble Studios??

 

Game [B] makes me think of some TBS. Is there a difference between "worked on" and "helped make"?

Game [C] might be Fall from Heaven II

 

 

Timmaigh,

Hi dude   Saw your post on the Grey Goo forums. Nice to see you still like RTS

 

PS. I'm still gonna own you if you challenge me in CoH, DoW or DoW II 

on Feb 11, 2015

Hi Campaigner

nice to hear from you too. OFC i still like RTS. But i am not exactly happy with Grey Goo, feel sort of bland to me. Did you buy it too? If that ownage comment was aimed at me, then i am available to be owned at that game  

on Feb 11, 2015

Started filling in the slots with coverage, so if you see anything feel free to post if you think it should go up.  Sorry if it doesn't look "pretty", I'm trying to see how to best fit items in there.

on Feb 11, 2015

Game A, B, C... My wallet you jerks...

 

I will also second Scott Manley for a youtuber Brad. 


You got most the place I know....
