Have you all seen this video? What do you think? is RTS doomed?



TL : DW - The focus of RTS devs should be on single player not multi-player as most RTS gamers class themselves as casual.
 
It's actually been a long time theory of mine that the silent majority when it comes to real-time strategy are just casual gamers who want a solid replayable campaign mode and that multi-player is a secondary consideration. That's certainly me! I'm a strange combination of really competitve and really bad at games! I much prefer to play a glorious campaign.
 
Personally, I do enjoy playing at my own pace and I see multiplayer as intense and competitive as well. And this can be too overwhelming for casual players.

Its a solid theory and one I agree with enitely. Single player games are the best games.
