Take for example an early mission to the frozen planet Aurelia, which secretly resurfaced after thousands of years lost in the chain. Relic certainly played Infinity Ward’s influential strike-Em-up Chaos Rising’s campaign is filled with plays, script moments, and running at such a relentless pace that you fear it will end without it. Not only does it improve the diversity of missions (in my opinion, I can’t remember two missions), but it also adds layers of strategy and excitement, so much so that they forget to play an RTS and instead believe that they are involved in some kind of Warhammer. Honestly, after a while it became boring. Most of them followed one of two repetitive patterns: last action against the Tyranids/Orcs/Eldar or else get ready on a map and action a Boss at the end. My main problem with Dawn of War II was not this change in focus, but the glaring lack of variety in campaign missions. Others praised Relic for getting things done. Some have blasphemed Dawn of War II for not being an RTS and described it as a slightly more complex Diablo-style dungeon crawler.
Dawn of War II went a step further with the rationalization of the genre, almost completely leaving basic construction and resource gathering (it remained in multiplayer mode, but they got the impression that this was the matter by grinding their teeth). Prior to the release of Dawn of War II, World War II RTS Company of Heroes wowed PC gamers with its incredible graphics, fast-paced action and… surprise Horror… Clean gameplay. Relic Enjoyment with standalone Dawn of war II expansion Chaos Rising, dared, and the result is perhaps the best effort yet. This is a problem that has baffled RTS developers for years: how to create a compelling single-player campaign that is more than a glorified multiplayer training manual? So many games, even now, not even worth trying.
