Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion is the latest standalone expansion to the real-time space RTS 4X hybrid game: the RT4X! No worries you don't like the setting as your favorite one is already an overhaul mod that turns it all into Halo, Mass Effect, Star Wars, or something more obscure.

Sins of a Solar Empire on GOG - gog.la/SpaceModPlatform THE LIST - docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_K3ziSxT9zcUUGCddS4sF1uNJTWHSbOwB1CQX2Rx4Uo I have plans to do a standalone video for only ONE Sins mod so far, as I don't want to fall too deep into that rabbit hole.

Hey there! Thank you so much for the video (really caught me off guard since I subscribed for the Mystery of the Druids video LOL)! We're working very hard on SINS2, the amount of passion that is going into SINS2 is insane. A lot of the team is made up of SINS1 modders/super fans. We're also working hard to make sure the game is as mod friendly as possible, and we CONSTANTLY discuss whether or not things are lore friendly (even as the VFX artist). audio concern is noted ;)

Have you guys thought about adding support for campaigns even if you don't intend to make one of your own? Something like Warcraft 3 where you could create custom campaigns. That way you open the way for even more fan content without being forced to devote a ton of resources into making your own campaign.

Oh god no, you showed our iconoclast destroyer. I was one of two or three people that made the attempt at the battlefleet gothic mod. It was very much a high school and early college project, and it burned out when we did, which I think is a shame. The models got pretty decent and because I tried an experiment in gameplay that didn't pan out and burned out when it didn't work out well, which feels like a waste. That said, if anyone's curious about modding the game or that mod, I can answer questions.

Man this one brings back a ton of memories. One of my favorites: My older brother had a friend who had an external hard drive full of pirated/cracked games and we would constantly get groups together to do LAN parties. This was one we frequented a LOT. I’ll never forget this one free for all match. we didn’t see one of our friends for a majority of the match. Slowly over time the match was getting more and more laggy, which was kind of normal for how much stuff was going on, and then all of a sudden the game starts slowing down a LOT. One of us starts dying laughing and tells us to come look. We all go over to his screen, and just see a massive unending red colored blob jumping towards his systems. turns out buddy who was MIA had found some nice pocket where he was left to his own devices and just quietly did research and upped his pop cap until he capped it out entirely with scouts. Game ended up turning into a PowerPoint slideshow and we thought it was the funniest thing. I vividly remember laughing so hard I started crying. Games after that naturally turned into a “who could bring the game to a screaming halt via scouts” competition. Miss the hell out of those days, thanks for bringing back some nostalgia. :’)

Sins was my favorite grand strategy game in college because my only "gaming machine" was a crappy 4 year old laptop the school gave me for free because of my major. It couldn't run skyrim over 5fps, but it ran Sins smooth as butter even with hundreds of ships on screen. Because the developers built its engine from absolute scratch and knew what they were doing. Its a freaking technological marvel.

None of our hardware could ever keep up with any campaign lasting longer than six hours without almost snails pace timelag. Add to that the frequent desyncs in multiplayer. This game was years ahead of the technology that had to carry it and still managed to be fantastic. And yet despite all those issues, my friends and I still kept coming back to it, which really is a testament to it's outstanding quality. We have high hopes for the sequel.

This game series has been in my "Steam Sale" backlog for a while. Due to having little time to play games at the time, and how everyone I know talk about how complex it was, it was shelved for a while because I didn't want to learn a new game. This video has convinced me to give it a serious look now.

A RTS game... Not expect that. Large thanks!!! I have 2 games in my childhood about galaxy strategy stuff, that I played: Sins of a Solar Empire, and.... Sword of the Starts.... Sword of the Starts - basically is the opposite of Sins of a Solar Empire: it is very hard to understand, but still is very fun to play. You can take a look if interested. Also, I want to recommend 2 old RTS, "Starcraft like" in which you also could be interested (because they are still good): 1. Universe at War: Earth Assault (year 2007) 2. Earth 2160 (year 2005) Again, thanks for the video! Keep up the good work!

My friends and I started playing this game in more recent years, about 2019 and forwards, and it had been such a blast. It still holds up as a great basic but highly in depth RTS that I love playing. Unfortunately haven't been able to get back into it, but maybe someday. My favorite faction is Vasari Loyalist, the voice actors did a great job conveying their vibe and ferocity of an alien race doomed to travel the stars.

Wait a sec, did I hear music from Action 52 in there somewhere!? Anyway, great vid. I like your calm, yet engaging style of narration (and your jokes). Consider yourself subscribed to!

I remember looking at the box and reading it in the store and thinking to myself "That sounds too good to be true" but bought it anyways, and it was not only all that was promised, but much, much more. A favourite for many years and I still play its mods to this day. Absolute masterpiece of a game.

No waaay, dude! I was just thinking about this classic the other day. It was the one game me and my younger brother truly enjoyed playing together. I still have the main theme stuck in my head (and you know which awesome part I'm talking about). Thank you for bringing awareness to something that I consider rather unappreciated.

Been waiting for this. One of my favorite RTS of all time. Any desire to do a Supreme Commander video? I've always thought of them as a duality. Sins looks extremely complicated but is actually super smooth and easy to pick up, while SupCom looks pretty simple (albeit huge) but is actually a rabbit hole of depth. And also has great mods.

The best example for VA work in this game is the Advent Loyalist Titan. I can feel the wrinkles in actor's face when give an attack order... "They will join us! OR DIE!!!"

I still have the orginal bookelet that came with the game and the amount of information given to each ship despite all of them being somewhat the same throughout the faction was incredible. So glad you did a reveiw of this game.I still go back to it ocasionally.

Dang it Mandalore, I watched all your videos! xD Wish I watched your videos sooner. Keep on, keeping on! You’re doing a great job and I’ve not only enjoyed your videos, but bought a few of the games you recommended… and a few you didn’t… don’t ask.
