You mean like updating unit selection in Warcraft 2; it is limited to ~9 units per control group from what I remember.

Orks and humans had no multi select ๐Ÿ™ƒ apparently they're adding that in though which might make it playable.

I remember trying to replay Dune 2 a few years ago.

The lack of many QoL/UX refinements made it really difficult to play.

There are open source engine rebuilds for Dune 2 that offer lots of QoL/UX refinements so it is really great to play but at the same time those changes make the game way to easy.

Dune 2 was designed and balanced with the limitations in mind and removing them utterly breaks the difficulty.

[โ€“] Agent_Karyo@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Did not know about this about the open source engine rebuild. Will have to try them the next time I feel like playing Dune 2.

I don't mind the easier difficulty. ๐Ÿ˜€

There exist a few but I personally had the best results with Dune Legacy: https://sourceforge.net/projects/dunelegacy/
