This comment section probably won’t remember me, but maybe someone scrolling needs this. A few months ago I hit a wall. Nothing made sense. I bought Manifest and Receive by Eva Hartley after seeing it here on yt. I had no expectations. But chapter by chapter, it broke something open in me. Not motivation — momentum. Wishing that for you too.✨

If you're reading this right now, I just want to say; I'm rooting for you. We’re strangers, but that doesn’t mean I don’t care. I know what it’s like to feel like you're pushing a boulder uphill. I felt that way until I picked up Manifest and Receive by Eva Hartley I can’t explain it perfectly, but it changed my whole perspective. After checking it out on youtube and reading it things have been flowing—money, peace, confidence. maybe this is your moment too. Stay open. Wishing you more than you ever imagined✨

omg i thought i was the only one struggling with manifesting 😩 i tried everything.. journaling, scripting, vision boards but nothing really shifted. then i heard about Manifest and Receive by Eva Hartley on a podcast and gave it a shot and it literally cracked me open. things are flowing in a way they never did before.😭😭 if you’ve been stuck, it might just flip everything for you too 💖

Honestly, it breaks my heart how Manifest and Receive by Eva Hartley isn’t getting the attention it deserves. This book changed me. I saw the channel on youtube and my mind was blown. People need to wake up to this. Things have been flowing. money, peace, confidence. Maybe this is your moment too.

This vid is clickbait lies. Several of the games are turned-based strategy. Which are very much NOT RTS. Don't watch!!

It is really irritating that the time stamps don't just say the name of the games.

these are not rts

Favatar

Before making a list about RTS… maybe look at what is historically considered to be part of an RTS genre and what is not. City builders, Sneak games etc are NOT RTS

Favatar

Bruh Turn based is not Real time. What the hell.

None of these games involve: Tempest Rising. An actual RTS game.

I don't think this is a look at RTS, this is more to the strategy genre, which rts falls under, but you have a broad showcase on strategy games. You showed tactical strategy games, turn base strat, rpg strategy, tower defence and sim games, grand strategy and so on. I think the only rts you talked about was age of mythology. Maybe change the title from rts to strategy.
