Did anyone here ever play Endwar?

I was thinking about how it was very much a product of its time in terms of narrative: peak oil,European federation (they did predict brexit in a roundabout way) and some hilarious shit like beaching a cargo ship filled with tanks in a very silly amphibious assault. I think the tutorial level was literally invading The Hague.

The voice system was really cool, you could play the game entirely by voice and really felt like you were a commander.

It had all of the typical Clancy brain worms, but moving to a big picture of small battlefields it really allowed tacticool vibes to shine without getting bogged down too much. At the end of the day, yelling at your artillery to stop firing because you forgot where to before calling in the orbital drop infantry is way more immersive than just pressing buttons (in my opinion at least).

Interested in hearing your thoughts on RTS as a genre or Clancy games and their :brainworms:
