The pitch video had me laughing out loud with a huge smile. Robot apocalypse vs. Old One apocalypse at launch with more apocalypses added later? Cool, this certainly is a new idea.

In case you're worried about Planetary Annihilation being abandoned, worry not, Human Resources is by a separate team at Uber.

They definitely have the experience to make a game like that.

It looks amazing.

Is Planetary Annihilation actually good though? It looks fun from the trailer but been getting mixed reviews saying there's not really much strategy to it. Also, is there a storyline or is it just skirmishes & multiplayer?

This one looks brilliant visually - very clean and you'd never mistake it for anything else!

No story-driven campaign for PA. Uber deemed it too expensive for an indie studio like themselves.The SP component is the (http://pamatches.com/wiki/game-types/galactic-war/) Galactic War mode.
