General Is the RTS genre "dying" or just evolving?

[quietoffensive]

I've been seeing people say RTS is dead again. Honestly, people have been saying that for years. To me, the genre isn't dying. It's just changing. The same way people stopped buying certain things but still spent money elsewhere. That is how gaming trends move around. The problem is that many players compare every new RTS to classics they grew up with and that's a tough battle to win. Maybe RTS is no longer the biggest genre in town, but I don't think it's dead.

People have been announcing RTS death longer than we think. The genre is not dead. It's just no longer the king of gaming. people moved to different styles, mobile games, survival games and all that. The audience is still there.
