PvE is surpassed by PvP because of adrenaline. Thusly, MOBAs are surpassed by RTSs because of more and harder ramp up (risk) and PvP. MOBAs don't deserve 12M hours per day each, for example; what can be done to optimize fun in gaming? Is good development just making and advertising games better than others? (I know you would like to have a Pokemon action MMO.)At me. Post your opinions.

I know that few RTS have the few mechanics that would make them a good game, but why aren't you playing Supreme Commander FA? Play it through FAF, even if engymod is mediocre. Dual Gap is probably the best map to learn the game and each slot (air, land, sea, and eco).
A good MMO RTS would mog an arena MOBA.
>>722674519it’s a really stylish game, the acus stomping around are cool as shit, all the successors went with a crappy floaty stylized feel
>>722673624If you actually want to win in sweaty multiplayer games, you need to dedicate full time job worth of effort in your lifestyle to it. Without that effort, you're basically just an another bot for people who do dedicate it. I am not interested in being a bot.The problem is that I already have a job, and I get paid for it. Maybe I will play RTS or MOBA if I'm paid a full time job worth of salary for it.
>>722673624I think that people wondering if/how game science is objective should look up Self Determination Theory -- extrinsic vs intrinsic rewards. Extrinsic rewards -- getting things, like gacha -- is much less motivational and fulfilling than intrinsic rewards (pic).
>>722678196Intrinsic motivation is *so* good. Companies can still have infinite loot boxes (that can be traded) if the gameplay is good. Bonus points for a durability, gathering, crafting, and trading economy. (Make items tradeable for real money and take 10%, connecting the hardworking and the lucky with the rich.)
Post rare opinions.I think SupCom 2 is a good game and is really fun to watch. https://youtu.be/DfrMLw14XeM?si=_dCRdk1GDjX553hP
>>722681065it was entertaining enough for a console rts
>>722673624The only good RTS games are Pikmin 1, 2 and 3.
>>722674519I think StarCraft is vastly surpassed by FA. People aren't as familiar with aliens as they are Earth fantasy -- frigates, subs, destroyers, battlecruisers, battleships -- stuff they know and can imagine as fantasy-meets-reality. This is why I also think FA casting is so strong and entertaining. So much more is happening because it has land, sea, and air. Plus arty, tactical missiles, nukes, experimentals . . .
>>722683567supcom artillery is terrible compared to ta, should delete tac missiles from the game and buff artillery
