Build and manage mankind’s first mission across the universe! Create a sprawling facility underground, recruit a diverse group of specialists from around the globe and explore mysterious new worlds through the Exogate.
I don’t think it would be possible to make a tycoon/management game with an official Stargate license. The IP holders would want returns of such a size that would be unrealistic for the tycoon/management game genre. Although Two Point Studios have seen what seems like mainstream success.
I didn’t mean a tycoon game. I think a 3rd Person RPG will be the best option, but even a first person shooter can work with good story and mechanics. Or even a 3rd person action / adventure narrative game, something like Uncharted (as in similar genre).
Though, I won’t mind a tycoon game either. And if it can have voice acting by the SG-1 cast, that would be super cool too.
Not necessarily. There are examples of good games based on sci-fi franchises that aren’t riddled with shitty micro transactions. Starship Troopers: Extermination is a good example. It’s a base-building online cooperative FPS, and it’s actually a lot of fun. Surprisingly, even though you almost always play with strangers, (unless you have sixteen friends all ready to play) everyone has pretty good teamwork. I often see small groups sortie out in precise strikes into the bug horde to revive downed team mates.
The fact that this game exists, and is also being made by a smaller dev studio, never ceases to amaze me. This is a franchise that has produced several movies, video games, and related media. You wouldn’t expect the rights to something like this to be given to anyone but a big AAA publisher who can fork out a ton of money.

Now if only we can get a good, “real”, Stargate game.

Before you ask, the creators were threatened into oblivion. You MIGHT be able to find an installer out there somewhere.
Those sound effects!
Thanks for sharing.

That sounds nice but it’s owned by a giga corp so if it was created it would be garbage full of micro transitions.
Yeah, that is why I specifically mentioned “good”. I don’t want my wish to come true with garbage AAA game 😀
