People are always moaning on other boards that this game is a rip off of Homeworld or Nexus, but what they do not seem to understand is that those games are old! Their still good but they can't expect us to sit playing them until the end of time, a new space strategy game was gonna come along eventually.
Yes there are definite similarities but when people start saying "oh its a total rip off I'm not going to get it" it really gets on my nerves.
People use Homeworld and Nexus as benchmarks to argue that SOASE is unoriginal, would they care to point me to another RT4X game?
Are we really THAT afraid of change?
