RTS recommendation (lemmy.world)

What beginner friendly RTS game can you recommend?

As a quick background, RTS is completely new to me. I spend majority of my time in FPS type games but want to branch out a bit and try out something different/new (to me).

Requirements:

  • Somewhat casual (if that’s possible)
  • Somewhat easy to learn
  • Relatively modern with decent graphics (something that looks nice)
  • Runs on Linux (of course) and Steam

Since some other good recommendations were already made, I'm gonna put something a bit different here: Tooth and Tail. It's not a classic RTS, and you can't really micro your units like in other RTS games, but it's fun and fast paced. Games only last 15-ish minutes at most and the gameplay is relatively simple. It's 2D so it probably also runs on anything from smart toaster to supercomputer.
