Hyped for Broken Arrow and Manor Lord. Fingers crossed they can deliver. Ratten Reich seems interesting, too.

Broken arrow is warno

[@dracotey]

@@ketata13 broken arrow is nothing like warno like what

[@frankpurvis9189]

@@dracotey I just hope they put effort into the single player with actual unique objectives and make it replayable(ex: make it so i can change units before a mission instead of limiting it to skirmish that was my biggest complaint about steel division 2)

[@dracotey]

@@frankpurvis9189 i doubt it tbh, the demo mission was a few missions into the campaign and the mission wasnt that fun imo

[@ericmcquisten]

Manor Lords will either be the greatest game of 2024, or the greatest letdown. Fingers crossed its as great as Bannerlord, or even better

[@adamsevcik7708]

great as bannerlord? heheheheeeheheheheehheheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[@suprememasterkyo6400]

you are a good man

[@majorian4897]

Which ones will have the best mod support?

[@snowi9585]

I love that one of the factors for these new rts games being so intriguing and fun looking, is that the rts genre just isn't as profitable as the others so big companies don't bother to even produce fastfood type games for it. It's a win-win for us! Indie devs get to make a good game and we get to play it.

[@sevyn5933]

indie devs?

[@MrStensnask]

Am I the only one who misses RTS games with the same level of details as the CoH games? The details in those games still blow my mind. No other RTS games ever really come close in terms of destructability and animation.

[@Steamthrower1]

gates of hell probably closest to it

[@luisvillarroel3543]

This. Been playing it for the first time and gotta say it has way more detail over coh.

[@Thermonnuclear]

GOH is better now imo

[@maciejstan6379]

try blitzkrieg mod for coh1, bro u will see then @@Thermonnuclear

[@koltonriley5929]

Detaill? Bro play MOWAS2 with ROBZ Realism mod. NOTHING comes close to Men of War Assault Squad 2 with Robz Realism Mod from the Steam Workshop. It is the greatest RTS WW2 game. Tanks armour mimic War Thunder, you can control a whole squad of men, or individually, you can take control of tanks or men in 3rd person. There is cons, but it is the best I have ever played.

[@jrosa__]

Cant wait for Tempest Rising. CnC spiritual successor.

[@abcnt]

All us World in Conflict vets looking at Broken Arrow like we haven't eaten in 10 years

[@misiek_pmt]

Tempest Rising got me realy hyped up. It looks like Tiberium Wars which is my favourite from the whole series

[@RoadKamelot2nd]

I'm mostly looking forward to Dust Front. Really liked how Dawn of War - Dark Crusade's campaign was designed and Dust Front looks like it'll have a campaign similar to it. Here's hoping all 3 factions will be playable too.

[@NukeThemAllGame]

This is going to be a massive year for RTS genre!!! a big come back! I am making one as well, in a style of classic Z, KKnD and C&C red alert with a mix of they are billions and COH!

[@panzermuffin4611]

KKND. That's nostalgia right there.

[@nexusxmoon]

Great. Now I just need another 200 years of life to play all of these.

[@serhatnurikaya3443]

Ah, the good ol' days of RTS. Cossacks 3 really managed to revive that classic feel with modern polish. This video brings back memories, thanks for the nostalgia trip!

[@neofulcrum5013]

I always knew the future war of Terminator would work as an rts game. Rattenreich may be good too.

[@LaudyWoof]

RTS genre will go through a full blown revolution - BAR (Beyond All Reason) is going to be the next RTS overlord.

[@Zakatak360]

Still no Japanese faction in any WW2 RTS game, which is odd, because they played a HUGE role. Ratten Reich looks interesting though.

[@HiredFixer]

RTS games where you can lead and play as foot mobiles are really GOAT games

[@IslamistSocialist371]

Mount & Blade :Warband do that From 2010 and people don't like it because it looks like shit. But People love bannerlord, which literally almost a same game just remade

[@knightofwind2929]

man the days of good RTS games really are long passed

[@ratsherr4980]

What's missing here is an RTS from an indie studio from Germany called 2089 Space Divided with CC Vibes

[@starsailor751]

Really excited for manor lords, even wishlisted it on steam

[@Inferno912]

15,14 - yes for me. 9 - have to see gameplay first. 7 - great graphic and +for units idea, lol. 1 - if they do rich build and fights then yes I will play that game. I am missing Settlers or Knights & Merchants kind of game.

[@madDevilmonkey]

Sanctuary: Shattered Sun reminds me of Supreme Commander

[@Flutteragon]

Men of War always in my heart! Wonderful game!

[@squiggles5640]

"for people who love historical accuracy, here's a game with anthropomorphic rat people with guns"

[@ahnonymuz9921]

I love that broken arrow cant wait for it

[@roboman342]

Bought and beat Terminator because of this video. EXCELLENT game. I didn't even hear about this (no one did). Now I'm back to this video to see what else I should buy next. Thanks my man you rule. Edit: dammit....Tempest Rising and Ratten Reich arent out yet. Now wtf do I do.

[@davisglenatnhonyg.4123]

Broken Arrow is like the successor of World in COnflict. I hope it will be.

[@mrlorddoom3948]

The true successor though is Warno, they're former Eugen devs and they're going all on out with this project! Will be awesome too see where they take it.

[@Sn3k_G4ming]

Broken Arrow, Manor Lords, and Homeworld 3 are my top 3

[@mrlorddoom3948]

Hey that's my personal pick also! 😆

[@The13thRonin]

Ahahahaha. How'd Homeworld 3 work out for you?

[@Razgriz_01]

Broken Arrow is like a fusion of Wargames and World in Conflict, which I like. The demo was pretty good. Can't wait for it's release. Terminator Dark Fate Defiance was actually surprisingly good. Somewhat janky though. If you like games like Men of War, Call to Arms, or Syrian Warfare, you'll probably like it. Very punishing with it's resources though. Which I guess makes sense when you're trying to run an army in the post-apocalypse. Big downside is it being set in the Dark Fate timeline instead of the T1-T2 timelines. Luckily the devs tried their hardest on making it resemble more of the future war shown in Terminator 2, especially once you start equipping your forces with plasma weaponry and you're fighting machines at night within the ruins of a city. Homeworld 3. Massive disappointment. They at least got the surface details right. Art-style and sounds are pretty good and resemble Homeworld. Everything else is a big let down. They dropped the beautiful motion-painting aesthetic for the cinematics for some ugly CG graphics with weird animations. The story makes Homeworld 2 look like a masterpiece, and the unit-variety is severely lacking. In the campaign, you only get ONE type of corvette-class unit. In previous games, you had multiple. Maps in both single player and campaign are way too close-quarters for a space game. They were too reliant on the megaliths/space-terrain that it got in the way of gameplay. Haven't felt this down since Dawn of War 3.

[@Pizzerow]

Tempest Rising, God Sworn, Stormgate and Mannor lords, those are the four game I wanna try so bad, as a guy that always played C&C Red alert 2, Warcraft III and Starcraft II. These new games might be my new favorites!!

[@blitzgaming1621]

Not dust fronts bomber being pulled from a sci-fi short from like years ago XD

[@user-gy2pk3ec7n]

Broken Arrow. Is one RTS I look forward too! Thanks for sharing!

[@stark1987]

i konw there are games like this out there, but i never see it in games that look good, i want an experience system that carries over from game to game, i would love to see a game from a dev like eugene systems that would have a slow trickle of exp into your army as you use them, say for example after one game you had a rifle squad that survived one of those rifle men would get a promotion to a sgt, giving them a little more health or firepower in the next battle you played, i remember this in a tom clancy title called end war from 2009, fun as hell for that xp system i want but it was an over simplified game of rock paper scissors

[@Krazy6ix]

I remember ratten reich being developed back in 2022 and I had zero thoughts it would be actually being made into a real thing lol

[@alexisandrey2181]

Manor Lords demo, even if it focused only on city building was one of the best gaming experience I had, since a long time. Hope that the dev kept his word of making a game that HE enjoy first and not trying to content every one's wishes like other devs.

[@thekween9037]

Came here for broken arrow but left more hyped for Godsworn

[@haakonglindtvad5489]

So the best Tempest Rising is on number 15… should be number 1. 2.Zerospace . 3. Stormgate. 4 Aom retold. 5. Godsworn. So number 1 is a city builder with rts elements, do we even know how much of Rts we are gonna get in it? How a game we are not sure of how much rts it is be on number 1, above games we for 100% knows are rts games

[@rufeteminov7777]

Age of mythology 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

[@Chuck_vs._The_Comment_Section]

A new Stronghold that's finally really good again would be great! Preferably from a capable developer.

[@peterhowe547]

waiting patiently for AoM: Retold, Ratten Reich and Manor Lords

[@MysticalGesture]

Terminator Dark Fate RTS might be fun.

[@keithrichardson-dd1uo]

Awesome vid it would be nice if you let us know the platforms and release dates of each game

[@someasiandude4797]

Ratten Reich looks like it can let you be really micro heavy which for my tastes is great

[@bashlykenn]

More of this rts game pls happy new year!

[@parker31498]

There is not a single RTS that will ever be better than halo wars 2 and battle for middle earth. They made them so perfectly.

[@DobromirManchev]

Check out Falling Frontier, it's very promising!

[@Wally1967]

It wont be ready until 2025. :(

[@LuisFrontanilla]

what a list, awesome!

[@darkranger116]

I think the lay out of Stormgate and Zero Space is actually really cool. We're getting a new "warcraft 3" AND a new "starcraft 2" at the same time. I hope players end up enjoying both of them, i cant wait to see all the new factions and units from both games

[@Wotinkermation]

Broken Arrow and Sins of the solar empire are only games I'm waiting for

[@steam-SMOKEY]

Glad i came across your channel, some good ones to look forward to playing 😊 subbed 👍

[@KobY_00]

00:57 is there any type of game that is this huge scale strategy but on a slower scale that is more realistic, i tried a few of this type but they all are really fast paced

[@myorigaccisbroken]

I miss DORF RTS on your list :)

[@UnfilteredFnaf]

What about call to arms?

[@patienceetendurance7442]

Intro @0.07min is ManorLord ?

[@creeperawmanindonesia]

00:57 Wow 😮😍, the game like War Thunder on RTS style.

[@mr_unknown3000]

Dont forget Beyond All Reason. It's actively in Development and everybody can already play for free. (no free 2 play, just for free ^^) And it's massive...

[@ghrostad]

Not sure why you left out the new Ultimate General game...

[@kurisuchiinathecrocodile333]

Honestly suprised Infection Free Zone hasn't made it on the list

[@NeflitheGamer]

Tempest Rising, Zero Space, Dust Front, Godsworn and AOM retold! ❤

[@CTLN7]

Yo consider taking a look at Global Conflagration, sounds like it should be right up your alley. It's inspired by CnC with a new twist and sprinkled with realism.

[@Portawolf]

2024 will be another great RPG gaming year! The choice is huge! 😜

[@CaptNemo_]

wasn't REGIMENT original name on steam called world war something? but then the devs change it or was it broken arrow.

[@tomekk503]

Like join task force or General was such an epic rts srategy action game

[@nexor7809]

im very hyped for manor lords. I hope they will give the ability to choose your nation like kingdom of poland, francia, hre or england

[@LthL-JJ]

Maybe add release dates to each game? Would make the overview even better in my opinion.

[@SLAPERZZ1]

Command and conquer will always be my favourite rts or the lord of the rings version of it was insane
