Are there any newish RTSs that are active? It seems like there's way more users for older ones.

- killerstorm 2y agoBest RTS for me, by far. 10x more playable than SC2.
- bloomingkales 2y agoWhy? SC2 is too physically exhausting for me. I like strategy, but I don’t like how it makes me micro at all.
- killerstorm 2y agoYeah, in SC2 I could not micro units at all. In BAR micro feels quite good: * the game pace is overall a bit slower * projectile weapons actually take time to land * many quality of life features, in particular, ability to give a whole group of units an order to get to specific positions by 'drawing' where you want them to be * a lot more options for static defense play * different options - surround, ranged attacks, kiting, AoE weapons vs evasion

- butler14 2y agoDoesn’t exactly answer your question, but I am hoping zerospace is the ‘next big thing’ / thing to reinvigorate the genre Recent steam demo is super, super fun It’s a shame aoe3 didn’t manage to pull over the sizable aoe2 audience and build upon it. That is basically the only major rts release in years. And it is really good but it was never going to be aoe2 and that’s not good enough for that hardcore player base.
