    I guess this is nice for nostalgic value, but where is new, modern real time strategy games like this? It’s been a very long time since anything new existed.

      They all cashed out on MMOs, The Warcraft series completely died off when WoW went online.

      Company of Heroes 3?

        I wanted to but the reviews show it’s a train wreck.

      I’d recommend checking out Planetary Annihilation, Planetary Annihilation:Titans, Supreme Commander 1/2 and their mods

    While they remain mostly unchanged from the Origin version, it does include some updates to the map editors to make them work in 2024.

    See here for some comments from the producer that made it happen:

    They are all marked as Singleplayer. Is that just a mistake or did they strip out any multiplayer functionality?

    Also: will this require Origin?

      Caved and got the bundle.
      I installed Red Alert 2, it doesn’t need Origin. But at least on my Linux install the main menu is just a black screen. :(

      Seeing as a fair chunk of those games used IPX and GameSpy I am not shocked by the lack of multiplayer.

      Store page does not list Origin as a dependency, but I can’t know for certain

    Not to be confused with the Remastered Collection.

    OpenRA is better

    • richmondez@lemmy.world ⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      OpenRA is a game engine and the games built on it are mostly fan C&C like games that are skinned to look like the early actual C&C games. The engine can’t even play the original missions and mp maps.

        Indeed, but someone has recreated the original Red Alert and that’s really all I need.

      Is better than Red Alert? But is it better than Renegade?

        Red Alert

      • meco03211@lemmy.world ⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Possibly Red Alert? A popular branch of the CoC games.

    So is this using the newly lowered prices everybody was buzzing about yesterday?
