They did always get the cinematics right. I'm on the fence, though. While the first DoW and its expansions collectively make my favorite RTS of all time, I hated the second DoW.

I liked both.
I may have liked the second more.
Watching Davion Thule gatling gun a row of bad guys was awesome.

I will admit I didn't give it much of a chance. I bought it when it came out and was immediately disappointed with it. I think I played it for less than 5 hours. A few weeks back, for want of something new to play, I considered giving it another go. Now that I'm fairly distanced from play experience with the first game and I've broadened my horizons a bit (video game wise), maybe I'll like it a bit more.

I don't even remember DOW I.
The second had more rpg stylings I think, which I liked.

Oh look I still have DOW2.exe icon on my desktop

Yeah, 1 was more classic RTS (with less micromanagement, my least favorite thing about RTSs) and 2 was more individual squad based stuff. I liked the large scale Risk-like campaigns present in the latter expansions for 1.

The trailer is a goddamn piece of art. The gameplay looks... different. It's quite a change of tone from thew previous two games, as well as what I've seen of the Space Marine third-person shooter game. Not a huge fan of a guy front-flipping in terminator armour.

I definitely prefer the first game to the second, but it might be a bit of nostalgia. That being said, Dark Crusade was the best part about the first game. I'm a huge fan of Tau, and the Risk-like campaign was awesome.

I still haven't finished the campaign for the second one yet, as I never stopped doing the optional missions to get gear so I could be better prepared for the final mission. Funny how that works.

Yup!

I liked playing the Necrons.

I'm not in love with the animations I really think they need to slow down the buildings for the orks and need to change up the animations for the shoota Boyz or just the Boyz in general.

I have been playing DOW 1 with my friends since the 4th grade, it's what got us into tabletop gaming, and that would eventually lead me to this website via a curious google search for "lego tabletop wargames"

Any of you guys got into the closed beta? Open runs through 21 to 24 btw

No, I'll just wait.
Not sure if achievements or saved games are kept, so I wouldn't bother.
