Economically I couldn't imagine a worse choice than MMORTS.

It compounds all of the challenges of a making a success out of a RTS. The massive skill gap. The cognitive load during a time where people attention spans are completely shot. A younger generation that doesn't play rts to begin with.

Then you have the classic issues for MMO's. The rapidly stagnating paths of actions. The difficulty of attaining and maintaining critical mass of players.

Strategy itself is hard to make than rpg, which means that new content is harder more expensive to make.

Really all the challenges are against it.

Design issue, not a technology issue.
MMOs are characterized by their persistent worlds where everyone can engage on their own terms. Logging in and out, maintaining individual progress apart from a collective, and having perfect control over your own unit(s), all don't gel with RTS game objectives.
With an RTS, you have a closed environment and an all-important time factor governing 2+ people trying to kill each other with their units.
You could make an MMO with an RTS control scheme, but not RTS progression. That's essentially just two WoW Warlocks fighting each other.
You could also make an RTS that tacks on MMO features, but whose persistent world is essentially an over-glorified lobby.
The best compromise here is really just a gsg.

Hi /vst/
I just finished playing my first game of Civ 5 as Greece. It was a vanilla beginner difficulty playthrough. Not much happened until the endgame, when my former close civ, Germany, started to become a jerk and attack my friends Egypt & France. I was hesitant to take their cities at first, but I had to teach them a lesson. The same for Persia as well, I even nuked their capital! All of this happened after the end of turn 400 in the endgame. Before that, I was aiming for a science victory, and I continued to aim for that, except that Germany and Persia had to waste my time.
Greek Alexander's UA is great, I mean, allying with City-States isn't hard, but being able to hold on to more gold and not spend as much to maintain your alliance with City-States is OP.
I could say less about the unique units, they were good for defeating barbarians, but other than that, I didn't use them as much.
Greece is overall a fun civ, but it isn't as grand as I thought it would be. Still cool though.
I like Civ 5's art and music, and I can't wait to play more games as other civs.

>can't even do anything about it because I settled 1 tile inland on a lake, so buying a galley is impossible
>barbarians pillage all 6 of my fishing boats
>well, at least I have my settler
>a city-state suzereined by Georgia steals my settler and nearly kills my exploring slinger the turn they declare war

Civ is for midwits and every game is basically the same numbers go up slop. And VII is just needlessly passive-aggressive about the number going up "the wrong way".
>>
>>2133521
WHAT GAME IS NOT FOR MIDWITS THEN?
>>
>>2133521
A number-go-up game for midwits would be one where the number goes up regardless of the players actions. In civ there's some decision-making and planning involved, which can affect your number-go-up gains, at worst making you fall behind of your competitors. Compare expanding in Civ5 to expanding in stellaris, for example.

The state of this sad, pathetic thread. One lone OPfag shitting up and just posting complete assblasted vitriol in response to legitimate criticism. The art style is probably the worst I've ever seen in a computer game. And the idea of randomly generated battles for an historic-styled game is just sad. Overall, it's a terrible idea coupled with awful execution, and the creator and his fans should feel bad.

Best you'll get are PVZ Gardenless and PVZ Universe
Former is a literal port from the ground up but with higher-fps animations and more content, i.e. some specific plant synergies, more plants, etc.
Latter is a ground-up fangame intended to eventually include all PVZ2 and Chinese worlds with plants from all of the different games, sort of an ultimate crossover game, but it's primarily modeled after PVZ2

That never happened, there were several spacefaring species and cultures that survived the Endless' wars and the Endless disappearing (they actually didn't), so what you're asking for is quite literally impossible/never happened, at least according to what little "lore" and timeline consistency exists within the Endless setting, as far as I'm aware.

I think the least noob friendly thing about the EAWX mods is that their UI is unintuitive to navigate because for a long time they couldn't change it much. A recent update to the game does now allow more substantive ui changes, but its going to take some months of dev time for that to be implemented. In the meantime be aware that a lot of game info is behind a bunch of buttons in the bottom left.

What are some annoying factions that make the game shit?
For me its Yuri in Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge.

You must attack them with the few long range weapons or they capture your units.
Their stupid Gatling tanks have wide range.
Their air defense is impenetrable.
You cannot sell their miners, although they can be built as a building.
Their commando unit can capture the strongest defenses from a distance.
