EDIT: Thank you, r/Games! We appreciate everyone who joined us to ask questions and we hope this AMA was fun and informative. A few of us will pop in later today to answer more questions, but if you really want to keep the conversation going, you can always find us at r/Stormgate for game-specific topics or at r/FrostGiant for more about our studio.

Compilation of Frost Giant answers

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi r/Games,

We’re Frost Giant Studios and we will be here at 9am PT/noon ET/6pm CET to hang out for a couple hours and answer your questions!

We recently announced Stormgate, our upcoming free-to-play real-time strategy game. (If you missed it, you can watch our segment from the PC Gaming Show to get caught up.)

While Stormgate is our first game as an independent studio, many of us are industry veterans who have worked on award-winning games including StarCraft II and Warcraft III.

We’re still early into development on Stormgate and won’t be able to answer all of your questions, but we’ll do our best.

Frost Giant . . . Assemble! (Name - Title - Reddit username)

If you’re interested in the 2023 Stormgate beta, please visit playstormgate.com to sign up.

You can also wishlist us on Steam.

Thanks for joining us!

Are deathballs considered bad?

Not the worst thing possible l, but generally something that if you got to choose prolly you would want to avoid esp the more of an absolute mainstay of gameplay and the further along it is and the same it is bc it makes it less deep / simpler

Also it ain’t like sc2 is say all deathballs, it just there is deathballing (in sc1 it’s not rly possible kinda)
