Homeworld 2 - The Inspiration for Battle Star Galactica?

submitted by Farhad2000

1 decade 6 years 5 months 2 weeks ago

Homeworld 2 Intro movie along with Hyperspace core transfer cut scene made me think of certain relations to Battle Star Galactica? This is the plot of Homeworld 2 with some additions by me...

The game begins with the commissioning of a new Mothership, the Pride of Hiigara (The Battle Star is being decommissioned as a museum piece). After an emergency evacuation in the face of the Vaygr onslaught (The Cylons attacked the 13 colonies and only the Battle Star escaped).

The Mothership, which now represents the last hope of the Hiigaran people for continued life or independence, begins to take the war to the Vaygr (The Battlestar Galactica with the colony ships who escaped represent the last humans alive being countdown each episode).

The Bentusi (Mystics? Fleet Command?) inform them that their only hope is to find Balcora Gate (Eye of Jupiter? Path to Earth?), a location left by the Progenitors (Original humans?) and holding the keys to stopping either the Vaygr threat, the End Times, or both (Earth or ending Cyclon threat).
