Woefully under marketed, Savage: Resurrection (S:R) was released in 2016 to little fanfare. There was an excellent OP made here by Chomp8645 which I will quote below. S:R in essence is a FPS / RTS hybrid game. Two teams take the field, choosing between the factions of Beasts or the Humans. Each faction has its own tech tree, units, weapons, special abilities, etc. ( There's a whole storyline, I won't get into it here) The thing which makes S:R unique is that each team also has one commander who has a top-down RTS style view, and oversees all base building, resource gathering, technology/unit/weapon upgrades, and general strategy for the team's assaults and defenses. The game has languished over time, probably due to the fact that S2 games failed to market it. Like at all. It's actually a very decent game which ran smoothly (once you got in-game) and looks good - and was fun for the few weeks that people played. The real cool thing is that S:R is 100% FREE TO PLAY RIGHT NOW Are any goons interested in trying to organize some games? AI commander and bots to flesh out the teams are available, so even 8-10 goons would be enough to have a small match. The steamcharts are depressing to look at, but there do seem to be a handful of pubbies left who play. Post here and if we get enough interest, let's play some Savage.

Wow I had no idea they put out another Savage. I remember having LAN parties with the original game, it was pretty innovative at the time.

The mechanics and units are near identical. Some of the melee times are a bit different (i.e. the Savage doesn't have one big blade of doom, I think he Dual wields now) But yeah, this is the reason it hasn't done very well - nobody has heard of it!
