Not even close! Was an FPS but you're fighting fires. Even had a button for "check if surface is hot" to determine if there were fires on the opposite sides of a door/wall. It literally was simulating being the firefighter themselves not the entire systems and infrastructure.

The only time I hear "RTS IS DEAD!1!1!" is from Videos trying to be alarmist and ones like this. A Game being made for the Genre not happening for a single week isn't "dead Genre". Like... Bro... You want a dead Genre look at the one that Mimimi specialized in. RTS is one of the big three Genres, I almost wish it was dead just to make room for other Genres. Might've well be saying FPS is a "dead Genre".

The bigger problem with giving an RTS a story, aside from how nowadays you probably won't find as many good writers available is how a lot of the options for a campaign are either rehashing existing stories quite possibly literally if you're doing a history themed RTS or one of the old "actually there's a secret entity manipulating everything" plots that C&C had. Honestly I'd settle for a good campaign with a passable excuse plot for what you're doing. The first AOE had that even if it also tried to stomp your nuts flat with some of it's limited force missions.
They already did offscreen. That's why Thanquol was so pissed at the start. He's been plotting revenge on those two, Felix and Gottrek, for like 20 years and they had no fucking idea who he was.
The original Age of Empires 3 came out in 2005. And the remaster that did come out in 2020 gets an update, is played by fans for a day or two, then gets abandoned for a variety of reasons. Age of Empires 2 with its two remasters get more attention and player investment.
The Tarriff version is really funny.
