The game doesn't stop by pleasing the visual sense it pleases aurally as well. There are even nebulous background textures, so that space isn't always the same boring mix of "black with white spots." Planets, asteroids, ancient space debris you'll see it all in the various levels of Homeworld. Everything - from the massive explosions to the ion trails coming from your tiny fighters - looks fantastic.
The game's 3D textures all look magnificent, and are rather colorful (you can choose your ships' "base" color and secondary "stripe" color). With complete camera rotation and zooming at the player's fingertips, the gorgeous screenshot options are endless. If there's still anyone out there who judges games simply by their graphics, that person will want to pick up Homeworld immediately. This sounds like a dumb-downed approach, but it all adds up to a more cerebral experience with a greater emphasis on strategy and tactics. Since most ships are identical for both sides, you don't have to worry about thinking of the names or types of the enemy ships you only need to concentrate on what is effective against them. In the end, however, this works well, as you can pick your race based on these few exclusivities, and at the same time be familiar with all of your ships and the ships of your opponents. On a related note, the races themselves are identical, save for a few exclusive ships per side. The way the game plays out, it would be perfect for two parallel storylines, as the Kushans soon attack the Taiidans (or vise versa depending upon which is chosen by the player). While the campaign itself is immensely enjoyable, challenging, and will be remembered for a plot that ranks with the likes of StarCraft and Myth, it also exactly the same for both the Kushans and the Taiidans, the two playable races of the game. This brings up the only real complaint with Homeworld's single-player game. The player must use the capabilities of the massive Mothership, its alien technology, and his own wits to find the people's true "homeworld." The Mothership takes 60 years to build, but as the game begins it has finally been finished.
This discovery brought the people together to build a giant Mothership, which will use the artifact as a map to seek out the true home planet.
These people are descended from aliens, who were somehow transported long ago, to this world they now think of as home. In the uninhabitable desert, an ancient artifact was recovered that led to a startling revelation: the people inhabiting the planet are not native to it. The game starts with a stylistic, black-and-white cut-scene that explains the back-story, about a race of people that live on the planet Kharak. It is not only beautiful, but epic in scope, easy to play, a joy to hear, and overall, an experience like no other. To put it bluntly, Homeworld is a revolutionary real-time strategy game.
