I thought everything just went to the 4x formula and/or the micro/hero focused route. I actually wish there were more simplistic Warcraft 1/2 or C&C type games to come out, but I'll admit I haven't paid much attention to the genre for awhile, pretty much since StarCraft 2.
So do I. There are a few but these are indie projects and in turn their scope is smaller than even those 1990s games. I guess the closest thing is Five Nations which is currently on sale on Steam for under 10 Euro. It's like a slice of Starcraft 1 where they have taken only the missions with just flying units. At that price point I cannot complain but I'd also like a full price scifi RTS. Not a fan of AoE4 simply because of its "realistic" backdrop. I'm rooting for Tempest Rising after Stormgate was a severe let down.
