Sometimes I like to get high and play a bunch of Starcraft 64. Something about the chunky graphics and CRT vibes just puts me in a good headspace and makes the stress of the world melt away.

What RTS do you turn to when you are just vibing?

I love playing AOE2 team games at the moment. Though I'm not sure it's cozy. The closest thing to a cozy RTS I've ever played is probably Pikmin 4.

    Red Alert 2. Playing this game reminds me of my childhood bedroom in the attic, with the big beige tower and chunky CRT in a corner that is slightly too small for comfort. Much like the theme of the game itself, it's like traveling back to a time when we felt certain the good guys would always win in the end...

    Came to say Total Annihilation. Even Supreme Commander doesn't satisfy like Total Annihilation with all CPU players on a metal planet. Lining up 15 single shot Big Berthas each with their own fusion reactor...now that's Annihilation.

    One of two for me:

    Star Trek Armada or Warcraft 3. I never fail to have fun with either.
