One I always come back to is Planetary Annihilation.
Never felt like it really got off the ground, or maybe that’s as good as the precursors got too. But dang it I still find it fun to run through a little campaign thing, despite it getting super unbalanced in your favor as soon as you knock at one of the first ‘bosses’.
Suprised that they’re still updating and maintaining it, even to the point of adding mods in as ‘official’ content.
How can you go wrong with smashing planets into each other or just straight up death-staring your emeny into dust motes?
And then they were going to make Human Resources, which looked like wicked good fun. Perhaps in some alternate universe that panned out…
Any games you guys have that feel that way to you?
It has to be modded but the first two company of heroes games. Blitzkrieg mod or spearhead for 1 and 2 respectively just keeps a little more realism than base game but also has the game balanced.
My friend group (usually only on 2 though) goes back and play a handful of matches at least once a year if not more

I checked it out and wow. That looks pretty nifty. The aesthetics reminds me of Starcraft 2 but with Tau from Dawn of War. It’s sad that RTS genre isn’t that big of a genre to begin with.
