For me it's first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they're open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that's stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

Good RTSes. Last great one I played was Company of Heroes.

My favorite is still command and conquer generals lol. Not the best in the series but I loved it. Still play it every once in awhile.

Generals with Zero Hour is fantastic, and I actually think it's the best in the series. While I think Company of Heroes is better, it's still a very good game.

I've been playing Beyond All Reason, a free RTS that's like Supreme Commander or Total Annihilation. The game handles 8v8 team games quite well, I've never played on such large teams in a RTS game, it's fun.

I'll go check that out, but I recall I wasn't fond of the economy generation in Supreme Commander.

[-] Buttons@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

The economy is similar, but it's a little easier than sup com. Energy to metal converters are cheap and if you balance them right you wont waste metal or energy.

Thanks, if it's a little easier it might just be enough.

Used to play a lot of RTS, both single and multiplayer. The last one I bought was the new AoE game. It did scratch a bit of the itch, but on the whole was a letdown. Before that it was Iron Harvest, which was visually pleasing but clunky. I am still looking for an RTS I can really get lost in.

Any recommendations?

@Pantoffel supreme commander is my all time favorite and "beyond all reason" is a free game, developed by the community that shares some elements.

Thanks I'll give it a try!
