The Jabberer

 I've been on a bit of a sci-fi kick and real-time strategy kick lately, and as I've been meaning to play Homeworld for ages, I figured I'd buy the prequel on sale, even though prequels aren't typically recommended for newcomers. The reason for this is that typically prequels generally require or recommend prior knowledge of the franchise's plot (even if that seems bizarre). That being said, Deserts of Kharak doesn't fall into that pitfall, and as someone who hasn't played Homeworld , you will miss nothing if you play this admittedly somewhat short but solid singleplayer campaign prior to the first game. I had a lot of fun with this one, and apart from its short length with high price tag, the game is a very enjoyable tactical strategy game. While the first and second game are based in space and utilize 3D movement, Deserts of Kharak is a bit of a step backward, taking place on the desert planet of Kharak. Air combat is limited to 3 varieties of attack ru
