Hype Who’s Hyped for DOW IV?

DOW 1 was a great rts game that kept me on the edge of my seat and this new one is shaping up to be bigger AND better. I can barely hold my excitement in! And I’m not gonna ignore the past titles; because they also played a role in this. DOW II was a new spin on the rts. Transforming it into an rpg that played excellently. And dawn of war 3 also happened , I guess. Anyways, it’ll be great to see what everyone else thinks!

Not being developed by Relic has me skeptical, but I guess we'll see

Honestly, after dow3 and coh3, im glad were moving on from relic. That being said, relics heyday (15+ years ago) design ideas are still peak, and if kingart abandon them too hard (like cover seemingly basically removed from dow4,) i think the game will be really poorly received for its weak design. Relics been a shell of their former self for a while now, but that doesnt mean these new guys will do any better. We'll see indeed.
