Shit. Supreme Commander 2 looks like Demigod.
The leaked screenshot may look cool, but look at the angle. It’s almost a Diablo-style view. That might not worry me on it’s own, since you can get fairly low-to-the-ground screenshots in Supreme anyway, but look at the map. It’s urban combat, with troops meeting at a chokepoint. Very tactical stuff, as opposed to strategic level.
Now, this may just be continued paranoia, but the trailer is a teaser, and it gets oddly detailed about the storyline– which nobody I know cares about. For SupCom 1, all you need to know is that there are 3 factions that have been warring for years, and you’re one of them.
I will grant you– StarCraft pulled off storyline pretty well, and even had some tactical missions in their single player campaigns. But Blizzard also didn’t release Demigod right before StarCraft, either.
