id say ra2, tiberian sun, and tiberium wars are the big standouts here. ra3 is pretty good too but id put it a tier down. any single one of those games would be worth it for $9 (i bought tiberium wars for like $15 awhile ago lol) and then you just get a bunch of poo poo on top of it. crazy deal.

Yeah Tiberian Sun was cool. Lot of memories cementing the ground of my base to prevent hunter seeker drones

I never played Renegade either might be fun to fart around in too

I'd say it's unlikely because Jim the EA producer who made the HD version of the first games happen (and pushed to get the C&C stuff included in this drop of old EA games on Steam) is involved with a Star Wars strategy game at the moment.

If I recall the riven rape rpgs started off as mafia games which makes it even stranger

There were two different terrible RPGs. One was a Riven-based thing that ultimately involved torture at some point. The one that caused 99% of the QCS drama was some weird thing I forget the name of (Infinite Magic something-or-other?) that wasn't really related to Myst or anything else but involved a character building sexbots of other characters.

Whenever I played multiplayer tiberian sun my friend would always include a harvester full of tiberium in any wave he sent so even if I fended him off, now there's tiberium all up in my poo poo that prevents me from expanding

If they did they wouldn't have been able to get as loving stupid with time travel, so I can see why.

They're alternate timelines, technically. But yeah it woulda been cool as gently caress for Kane to show up in ra3 or something

I think the first expansion pack I ever got was Half Life Opposing Force. Which also kicked rear end and might be the only good thing Randy Pitchford has ever made

RA2's voxel style allows for some really cool designs in modern mods too for vehicles. Tremendous amount of awesome stuff out there. Def an all time great.

I heard one Red Alert game ends with Kane showing up as strange meteor showers start happening, though that might have been an unmade ending.

That game ruled because you could move your base somewhere else and the enemy AI was too rudimentary to figure it out, so they'd keep parking units where your base is supposed to be lmao

IIRC, early C&C is blatantly Dune II with a not-GI Joe reskin, with Tiberium instead of spice complete with the mobile harvesters.

I was never any good at them but the golden age of RTS was really great, they seemed to lend themselves to great epic stories with wild overacting. Mostly remembering Age of Empires being some fun edutainment.
