I know I’ll be in the minority, but I really enjoyed Homeworld Cataclysm the most. It didn’t have the fuel mechanic which made the original a bit tedious, and it had the much improved HUD. I recall the story pacing being great too. I’m not sure if it’s in this bundle though.
it's not - Homeworld Cataclysm is available on GOG as Homeworld Emergence. something about Blizzard trademarking Cataclysm -
"As for the new title, that's a precautionary move. "'Cataclysm' is now a registered trademark of Blizzard Entertainment, Inc., and the game has been renamed to avoid confusion," GOG said." - https://www.pcgamer.com/gog-brings-17-year-old-homeworld-expansion-cataclysm-back-from-the-dead/
I still need to play Cataclysm. I've heard only great things about it. Fun fact, you don't have to worry about fuel if you don't use strike craft. I'm probably outing myself as a bad player who gets his super-capitals into trouble but I recall multi-gun corvettes making a pretty effective screen.
