1 You might as well go play turn based games instead of RTS games then. All video games in general require at least a bit of thinking no matter what genre unless it's a game where the goal is to stare at the fucking screen and twiddle your thumbs for a little bit. Let's use a popular example that I'm sure everyone knows, argues about, and probably hates. COD. COD is a twitch shooter that's not in any way a strategy game and the premise of the game is that you're a soldier and you need to shoot other soldiers because they want to do the same. If you literally don't think about any of your actions in the game and just run forward shooting straight into enemy lines, you'll die. On the other hand if you think about your tactics, when to pop out and shoot, when not to, where to flank from, you'll have a better chance of succeeding. The thing about real time strategy games is that they're REAL TIME. That means that you have to think on the go at the speed that the game is set at. It's also a strategy game meaning that it does indeed require more thinking than the average action game. If you're not capable of thinking on the go then real time strategy games are not for you. 1 You might as well go play turn based games instead of RTS games then.

Go play Civ 5, xcom, or even Silent Storm. I'm sure those are better suited to your prefference and they're quite fun.
