Great video once again!

[@perafilozof]

Thank you kindly for the comment. I am glad you enjoyed it. Which game looks most promising to you?

[@Larkas]

My dude, I really appreciate the video and especially the links to their Steam pages, I've wishlisted quite a few. A bit of constructive criticism, though: you won't be copyright stricken by saying other games' names. It's nice to know that game A, B or C was inspired by games of yesteryear. It would be even nicer to know WHICH games they were inspired by.

[@perafilozof]

Hello and thank you for the comment and feedback. I am glad to know you have grown your wishlist with these games. As for naming the games these are inspired by, this was done like so in this particular video as I have been doing the exact opposite, what you asked me here, in about 20 previous similar video lists. I personally felt like I needed to change that routine a bit, I also got some comments from developers who don't particularly like their comes compared to old classics people only look at with pink glasses. And so their new games can never objectively measure up to those old ones. So in essence it is a balancing act of how much to compare new games to old to not go over the line and prevent players from trying out new games due to those not measuring up to old ones.

[@Larkas]

@@perafilozof Hmmm, makes sense. I’d recommend just not mentioning that so overtly, then, as it is it sounds a bit… how can I put it… unsatisfying?

[@perafilozof]

Got it. I will do it another way in the next video. Thank you very much for making the effort to explain your thoughts on this. I really appreciate it. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to get comments compared to views.

Man this once again makes me painfully aware how far the RTS genre has fallen. All these games look like one-person productions out of boredom at best. Guess the only serious RTS games coming anytime soon are Homeworld 3, which is out already but is said to be awfully short and not that great in general, Sins of a Solar Empire 2, which is basically just a graphical- and engine overhaul for the most part and that game from former Command & Conquer people, forgot the name, which unfortunately plays more like Red Alert 3 than Tiberium War, which is how every ground-based RTS should feel like. Well, space-based ones as well actually. Frustrating...
