ProdigalFrogThe First Dune Game 32 Years Later: An LGR Retrospective
CitizenKongI know the second is the groundbreaking one, but I always had a soft spot for this one.

If you ask me, the original Command and Conquer (same developers, Westwood) is the actual genesis of the modern RTS, and Dune 2000 is built on the Command and Conquer engine and is this significantly less clunky and irritating to actually play.
And it’s got John Rhys-Davies in the cutscenes. You can’t really go wrong there.
I mean … Warcraft Orcs & Humans came out before c&c
Warcraft, especially the first one, was quite archiac compared to C&C.
Im a huge fan of the Warcraft rts games but you are right. Especially the first Warcraft felt like an ancient game compared to the first C&C, the controls were horrific (no right clicking on resources to send peons to it lol).
