Comment on Age of Empires designer believes RTS games need to finally evolve after decades of stagnation
ampersandrew@lemmy.world 1 week agoI’d be happy if they pandered more to controller players without removing the decision making in base building, like Halo Wars did. I always look to Cannon Brawl as an indication of what RTS can still be (by which I mean, not exactly like Cannon Brawl).

Have you checked Tooth and Tail? I don’t think it has base building, but is a very controller friendly RTS

I have. It does have base building, but it doesn’t really have choke points the way that StarCraft does. That doesn’t make it a deal-breaker, as I do enjoy that game. In fact, the way it has a controllable character that puts a controller-friendly speed limit on APM is something it has in common with Cannon Brawl.
