The tragedy of Wildgate is that it might be too clever for its own good.
Although it's a hero shooter on its surface, Wildgate is really a competitive ship battler. As you race other players to gather resources and build a better spaceship, it feels like playing as a unit in a sci-fi RTS. It's no surprise that Wildgate's game director, Dustin Browder, was previously the lead designer on StarCraft 2.
