OMFG!! Let me start by telling you that I absolutely loath, despise, and hate RTS games with every bone in my body, that was at least until....Starcraft.
This game is an absolute blast to play which surprised the hell out of me. Diablo and its cluttered screen and other quirks turned me off to them type of games. My brother-in-law picked up a copy so I started watching him play. He got tired of me telling him what to do and bought me my own copy. LOL.
I looked at Galactic Civilizations 2 after I started playing this one but got immediatley turned of by its complexity of throwing in sim type of stuff. I like clicking on a building and telling it to research upgraded weapons and it having a small progress bar then poof its done. Im not crazy about the pressing turn four times to get it done.
Are there any other RTS games that are similiar and as fun as Starcraft that I dont know about? I like its simplicity which appears to be lacking in many of todays RTS's that seem to be getting more and more complex.
I have never played any type of game other then FPS's before this one.
