RTS' were the perfect outlet for autistic behaviour for a young kid. I used to do things like cut down every tree on an island map in Warcraft 2 and make sure every island had a ring of towers around them along with max capacity armies being positioned strategically around the map, and had navies patrolling and shit. Nevermind that the enemy only consisted of a single building out in the middle of fucking nowhere. God damn I wish I still had that sort of creative energy.
I used to do a similar thing in starcraft. I remember a map in the terran campaign where you were on a big ass island in the middle and enemy was on smaller islands in each corner and they would constantly attack by air. My strat every time was to build a shit ton of turrets all around the edge of my island and then sit there, gather all the gas and minerals, get max army and only then slowly take out one enemy at a time. I think it usually took me like 3-4 hour to do that map. Great times. I don't think I'd have the patience any more.
also HOLY FUCKING 6 YEAR NECRO
