Why is Shitcraft still a thing?

Because asians decided that click speed was analagous to being good at a strategy game, and so decided to never improve the UI to maximize their required click speed

Never bothered to play SC2. Is it any better?

This. StarCraft was never about the strategy as with C&C, you could actually how EA was trying to win over the StarCraft crowd by making every new C&C game simpler and micro-dependent.

>>378773479
No, that's the sad part. 2 kept all the shitty interface decisions in 1, because bad interface = more hardcore game. Same philosophy that left us with dota 2.

>>378774943
What did you tke befoe posting that? And can I have some? It's sure to be some really string stuff.

Original C&C games are much more twitchy than the EA ones.
EA slowed the games down considerably to make them actually fun to play instead of the autistic mashfest to get split second bbuild orders down and dodge incoming fire with your mass of tanks.

Generals was still more micro-heavy and faster than Starcraft but it lessened the burden at the base and the third games were much more managable and closer to a decent pace like what you'd get in the singleplayer.

The only micro-dependent EA games are RA2 (which largely copied the old formula) and Generals (which is extremely front-loaded on combat micro but is the opposite of Starcraft which puts all the pressure on building up the economy so you can let a few swathes of units kick the dust and still be fine).

>>378777391
No, I'm not an idiot, why would I ever play C&C4?

And RA3 is at snail's pace compared even to AoE, let alone Starcraft or, God forbid, old C&C.

This is how old C&C plays when you're a shitter:

A good player would have been even faster and done in like 5 minutes. They are frantic and micro-intensive as all hell.

>There will never be an actual sequel to Disciples II
>Disciples III essentially killed the franchise

Even the few nice things DSIII presented didn't out-weight the level of bad things it had.
>>
>>378777963
So did I.

There is something incredibly appealing about being the absolute ruler and only hope of an entire nation and sending young, able-bodied men who had their entire lives ahead of them into certain death, send them to fight their neighbors they don't have any personal quarrels with and let them crush each others dreams or even have fun. Show them a side they didn't know about themselves. Slaughter civilians like they are insects under your shoes and kill and destroy the guy who wanted to kill and destroy YOU and slaughter YOUR civilians.

Is there anything better than this? Of course doing the murdering yourself in FPS games is awesome too.
>>
>>378772879
Because nostalgia duh.

Also:
>single handedly ruined RTS genre
Absolutely false. RTS genre was at its prime when SC came out and it had very little impact.

In TvP Zealots are used like Lings, to get up in the tanks' shit so that they get damaged by their own splash.

It's actually a pretty important structure. The fact you didn't use it doesn't mean anything.

>>378784650
Dude strategy is all about coming up with creative and unique strategies. Having ideas which are so original that nobody else had them and win because of your creativity.

It's not about who has the fastest fucking hands. Even a retard can memorize the fastest building order and simply build according to a standardized algorithm. What's the difference between "pro" koreans and AIs? There isn't any. This is why the genre is shit.

>>
>>378786249
>strategy is about creativity

Strategy is about getting the upper hand, prediction, and reacting to the opponent.
Even in the clickspam meta of starcraft, all of this is true. the one who reacts poorly or makes a bad play is at a major deficit, you aren't just going to speedclick your way out of a bad play , you have to know how to come back, and you have to have intel to plan your next move.

If it was all about speed, scouting wouldn't matter. The meta wouldn't ever change, you wouldn't have various build orders, it would just be 1 straight forward game game.
>>
>>378772879
Don't forget that they stole from both westwood and GW.

Starcraft's success was due to subhuman asians with shitty pcs could barely play anything else.

Blizzard have never made a good game, they only make 'pop' games, like some shitty boyband that sells really well but has no talent at all.
>>
>>378786249
>What's the difference between "pro" koreans and AIs? There isn't any.

You are deluded. Beating even the insane bots isn't difficult if you are halfway decent. Just try beating even the okay players on Bnet or ICCUP, and see how much of a difference there is between an AI and pro Koreans.

RTS games that target single player will probably be pausable like total war is. There are a couple of RTS games coming out from smaller studios that have a more traditional layout and control scheme compared to total war, but they both make a point of being able to pause to consider tactics and so on.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/373930/Sudden_Strike_4/

As two examples
Whether they'll be good or not remains to be seen, but it seems there's definitely a market for slower paced, SP focused RTS games, where people want the immediacy of normal RTS controls without feeling the stress of MP.
