Im a huge fan of the Warcraft rts games but you are right. Especially the first Warcraft felt like an ancient game compared to the first C&C, the controls were horrific (no right clicking on resources to send peons to it lol).

Command & Conquer released 2 months before Warcraft 2.

No one is arguing which game came out first. I didn’t say C&C was the first game. I said C&C was the first one to nail the modern RTS format, and because of that I think Dune 2000 is a less irritating game to play from a modern perspective than Dune 2.

And I’m simply stating otherwise.
C&C came after Warcraft and released effectively alongside Warcraft 2 which I would personally argue was the best rts entry at the time.
