Three Age of Empires, Starcraft and Warcraft pros face common prejudices about their favourite games.

As a warm-up for the final of the Digitec Playground Cup Vol. 11 with Age of Empires 2, we’ve collected some hard-hitting opinions on the most popular real-time strategy (RTS) games Age of Empires, Starcraft and Warcraft.

Is RTS really a dead genre? Are Starcraft players stuck in 2010? Is pathfinding in Age of Empires 2 still buggy after 20 years?

More RTS action at its best

In addition to the Playground finale, Digitec will also be present at Herofest. Visit our booth and game against us, test new hardware or do some tinkering. Check out this article for more information:

My love of video games was unleashed at the tender age of five by the original Gameboy. Over the years, it's grown in leaps and bounds.
