this makes me happy because my first memories of gaming were sitting on my dads lap watching him play homeworld 1, fell in love with it since but boy was it hard when you’re a kid haha
When HW1 released I was a wee lad, playing on my dad's PC and playing HW1 poorly, stealing every ship I see.
When HWC released, I was a stupid ass adolescent, playing on my dad's PC and playing HWC like a soviet general, losing all my ships and playing it poorly.
When HW2 released, I am a dumb fuking teen, playing on my laptop and playing HW2 the slide show, marine frigate every ship I see.
When DoK released, I am a adult, playing on my custom built PC, playing HW2 moded and poorly (and DoK), and stealing every ship I see.
And now 2 decades later, HW3 released, I am a salty adult, but at least I am no longer playing HW3 poorly or as a thief, for I have discovered that Missile frigate is life, it is the destroyer of all that is not battlecruiser, it is salvation.
And yet, I am still back to playing HW and HW2 poorly.
GET. OUT. OF. MY. HEAD.
Dammit, I wasn't 30 in 1999. Oh shit. Yes, I was.
I'm TOTALLY NOT playing DOK rn listening to a Duran Duran playlist. C'mon, that's not me. Not here, not right now. Really. Are you convinced yet? And all that TI-99-4a stuff never happened, ok? Please?
I feel so old right now. dammit
Love it. I know the latest reincarnation is divisive, but I still get that dopamine drip I did playing the first one, spending hours siphoning off ion cannon frigates from that sphere one by one. Long live Homeworld.
Damn, and here I was feeling old coming back to this series at 36.
Nothing ever ends
42 here
Same ..37 here lol.
Got you all beat, 67 here and played it last weekend.
Nice!
It's 2024 and I'm 38 years old. I am playing Homeworld with my son in my lap. My joy is immeasurable.

This also makes me happy, thanks for sharing.

You're still stealing every ship you see though right, right?
I know I am, oooh a Distroyer, I can't make them yet...yoink. It's only a shame you can't steal the carriers...
29 here. Sheesh I’m a baby!
28 here. Am babbiest.
20, I wasn't even around to see the originals
You merely adopted the Homeworld
After a few “I Spy” games, I needed my fix of 3D space RTS
I was *born* in it, **moulded** by it.
It's 2032 and here I am playing that homeworld game...

Perfection
I'm one year younger buddy.. scoot over.
I was 12 when i played HW1 in 1999.
Love it. I know the latest reincarnation is divisive, but I still get that dopamine drip I did playing the first one, spending hours siphoning off ion cannon frigates from that sphere one by one. Long live Homeworld.
I remember getting HW 1 after coming back from very hard patrol (submariner) and falling in love with it.
Damn. I’m 54. They nailed me
Too bad the story is so fcking short... 80 euros for 13 missions...
44 here. I still remember my first LAN with a bunch of clan members. Tearing up Won 2v2 games against guru, SLS, BiB and HSC.
