Who here still loves a good RTS, city builder, grand strategy or 4X game, Arpgs?

I played them a lot in the 90's, nowadays I'm not interested in the build, destroy cycle anymore.

A good city builder can still be fun, although I spend way more time in the map editor than play cities in motion 2. Tropico got rather stale though, first 2 games were great, 3 great to be back with 49 hours play time with expansion and 4 was still good for another 50 hours. Tropico 5 however looked too much of the same.

I didn't care for the new sim city, online shenanigans and small maps. Civilization 5 was still fun for a couple plays, yet beyond Earth was only good for 1 play through, it didn't grab me. Bored of the destroy part. So I took up settlement building in Fallout 4 instead.

I had hoped rollercoaster tycoon world would be fun but it's looking like a disaster atm.
