Why does nobody know how to make an rts? Why is it always starcraft over and over and over. Why not make a total annihilation clone? A company of heroes clone? An age of empires or empire earth clone? Command and conquer? No. The rts gamers yearn for ranked ladder. We must espurt again it’ll definitely work this time.

SHUT UP ABOUT BLIZZARD SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT THE FUCK UP THEIR GAMES ARE SHIT SHUTUP SHUTTUUUPPPP matt-jokerfied

RTS is by far my most favourite genre and dawn of war was absolute crack for me how is nobody able to make 1 good release?

Halo wars 2 is an unsung diamond its campaign is better than mainline halo

I don't think we actually disagree at all. I was basically complaining about how Stormgate is "modern" SC2, a game built solely around "balance" for competitive level play and not at all interested in making a game that is actually fun to play at all. And like you said, that appeals to no one, because people who like to play SC2 will just continue to play that, and people who don't like SC2 won't want to play an SC2 clone.

Me every time I see someone contort the reason why Gundam Evo failed having absolutely nothing to do with just borrowing Overwatch's homework and barely changing much if anything at all. Like I literally got a "But it's a better balanced Overwatch" from people defending it.
