I’ve wanted this game ever since I finished watching the video in two minutes time.

You will be wiped from existence instantly once your past self dies.

so if I go back in time and kill myself, what happens, because my future self wouldn’t exist yet so once doing so there would be no possible way that I could have killed myself having not existed yet.

Has anyone noticed the Related Videos tab? There’s quite a lot of “documentaries” about people who claim to have travelled through time.
I put “documentaries” in speech marks because in a few minutes it won’t have happened, but after that it did.
Holy shit. o_O

Very interesting idea. I wonder how will it look in the end. And sadly I don’t have the 30$ required to pre-order

Its abit complicated , because if an AI goes into the past , destroys the factory that made your army , then wont your army not exist? Or if you send them back in time , then they manage to destroy the enemy fleet , but the fleet manages to destroy the factory at the same time , then wont that mean your units get destroyed , because they were never made , and their units never destroyed? Im looking forward to the mechanics of this game.
And multi-player? I …
And multi-player? I expect a race to be the first to kill the other team’s parents, of course.
Its very …
Its very frustrating to read such discounts of important innovation. The RTS concept of warring units isn’t new and neither are 3D graphics. War games have been around for a very long time. What is the theme of Chess, after all? Here they invent the tech example future games may use for a less violent or educational theme with rich graphics. These accomplishments with temporal travel are enough by far.
wow this game looks …
wow this game looks amazing… I’ve played some mind blowing games in my time… but this video alone has just made my head feel like it has physically popped

This does seem very interesting. I wonder how mp will work in the “real world” Deffiitely curious about a campaign.
evidentally I have a extremely perverted mind cuz after Gackt explained why creampuffs were perverted… I totally understood xD
