Supreme Commander 2 takes a more standard approach, with less micromanaging than most other RTS’. While the original Supreme Commander took a bold new direction with various changes to the RTS rulebook. But is Supreme Commander 2 more than virtual plastic soldiers in a digital castle? Also, sending in vast numbers of robots and watching pretty explosions is also a lot better than making machine gun sounds with your mouth and knocking over figures. But now, instead of playing with plastic soldiers, I’m playing with virtual soldiers against an enemy that can think for itself.
RTS’ appeal to the little kid in me that loved to build replica castles and make green and tan plastic army soldiers fight to take it over.
While I’m not a self-proclaimed real-time strategy nut, I do love to break the monotony of knifing my friends in the cerebral cortex and settle down for some good ol’ resource gathering, army buildin’ fun.
