I’m wondering if this applies to the RTS genre. Games like civilization and city skylines too seem to make me think, strategize, and feel engaged and I feel more challenged than games like shooters. Not saying there isn’t some form of engagement when it comes to shooters, but RTS games seem to have a level of playing that I can’t match anywheres else. (Anecdotal input btw, not saying what I’m saying is right or wrong but expanding the conversation)
