The art of not playing games

[pocaracas]

Don't you just love waiting for your resources to build up?

Ever played Dune?

Nope.

Not seen that one before.

It's old... DOS old. But, for the time, it had all the eye candy available!
And it's quite a good book-based game. If you know Frank Herbert's Dune, you'll find many old acquaintances and the story will flow a bit like in the book.
Also, giving orders from a distance is actually part of the story and is something that develops with your character... unlike other "games" where your orders are transported by light-speed ghosts.

It's the first ever successful RTS, really. Pre-C&C.

Could you be thinking of Dune 2? That's the one that was the real precursor to C&C.
