Yeah, I don`t really get this complaint. You say there are too many turn based games and literally only list one example. And on the real time side you also list one current example (SCII is still a current game, it still gets expansions and stuff).

And while we`re on the subject of strategy games... there simply isn`t many of them full stop. Turn based strategy (with the exception of Civ) was pretty much dead not too long ago, it`s only thanks to indies that it`s started to make a comeback, and is still very far from a mainstream genre. Although at the same time RTS has also made a bit of a comeback recently, although I`d argue there`s been many more big budget real time strategy games recently than turn based, Company of Heroes 2, Warhammer Total War, Grey Goo and Ashes of the Singularity for example. Don`t forget Halo Wars 2 and Dawn of War 3 are coming next year too, that`s a whole bunch of real time strategy games and turn based only has... Civ and indies?

 

Oh and when it comes to RPGs (which are a different genre to strategy games regardless of whether they are turn based or not) I get what you mean, there`s just so many turnbased JRPGs releasing lately such as;
Fallout 4
Dragon Age Inquisition
The Witcher 3
Skyrim Special Edition
The Division
Pillars of Eternity
Dying Light
Borderlands The Handsome Collection
Mass Effect Andromeda etc

 

While for genuine turn based JRPGs (should mentioned I`m not including strategy RPGs because not only are they a different genre anyway, imo they suck so... yeah) you`ve got... Hyperdimension Neptunia (except isn`t their latest game actually an action one anyway?), Pokemon S/M, Persona 5 and.... well that`s about it.

I don't think you'd ever get it at all nor agree with it. You both favor turn based games from what I've seen, so I'd never expect you to see it from my pov. I dislike what you like and you dislike what I like. We just differ in opinions and views at the end of the day.

No need to the sarcasm though.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
