the problem with starcraft 2 is that the 'macro' is just following a checklist of what to build when at the exact second and maybe uhh scouting to see if they aer going to do an early rush or something. the thing i hate is that starcraft is fun if you play it like its supposed to be but then e-sports fags made it into this insane game where building your barracks a second late can be the difference between winning and losing. lol gently caress that.

you sound bad at rts games

2000 but yeah

i havent played it in years though. idk how it holds up as far as actual strategy, especially later in the game when high level charnel/pyro can pull out those crazy rear end machine gun guys who kill anything in an instant if not shielded and others can do similar things

i don't think you'd ever know by playing the single player game since the actual strategy elements only tend to emerge by playing against human opponents a lot

it is a really really good game though. earthworm james and pyro are my boys
