The game is a little bit different because you don't just win by crushing your opponent like you do in a 1v1 RTS. This game goes on.
I'd say the situation is more akin to a Free-for-All situation in a game like Age of Empires 2, where the winning strategy is generally to take control of key resources and suck them dry while fighting as little as possible. And then when you need to fight someone during a tech switch, you bury them with your accumulated bank.
- friendlybus 7y agoYeah well the discussion moves into the value of money in trying to win a tech race. Elon's Starlink broadband provider via very-near-earth satellites could be leveraged to provide a real-world advantage against google's internet dominance. If that conflict happened google would have to dump money into blue origin and would that be enough to counteract the advantage Starlink would have in dumping it's profits into getting more advantage? Idk, but just making the point

- friendlybus 7y agoFor sure, just making an example to show the pattern
