I want this to be good, but I don't really have my hopes up.
it feels like this game will be as good, and as succesful, as all the modern reboots of popular premillennium movies
see: not very
This game is problematic.
It doesn't really mention it in the article. But the PC/Mac versions are 100% the same as the android/iphone versions. It's made in unity so it has a chance to be decent. But no matter how it ends up, I don't think it could ever be truly great considering that at its core, it's just a mobile MMO being ported to PC.
They are being supported by fox, so hopefully that means it's going to be better than the typical cheapo mobile game.

The same Fox that cancelled the flipping show in the first place?

I think you're desperately hoping it's going to be good.
FOX supported many game adaptations of their shows and I'm hard pressed to think of one that was good.
And just because it's on Unity doesn't automatically mean it'll be good either.

There was a PS2 BSG game a while back that was fun as hell

I'm not desperately hoping it'll be good. I do not expect it to be good, I doubt I'll play it for more than five minutes. Don't confuse my statements with desperation, expectation, or hope. There's no way this game will be amazing.
All I'm saying is that unity has the potential to be good. I'm not saying it automatically makes it good. And when I say good, I'm speaking relatively. As in relative to most mobile games. What I should be saying is that this game has the potential to not be god-awful filth. Not good as in it holds up to what a game of this genre should be.
And I've never played a FOX supported game before. My thinking was that since they are being backed by a big network, it probably means the devs will have to spend more than 5 minutes working on the game. And at the very least it wont be as terrible as the dime a dozen super cheap knockoff games plaguing the google play store.
