To me it feels like it subverts the desire to build something, in the same way that e.g. porn subverts the desire for sex. You feel like you're making something, but at the end of the day you didn't actually make anything.

For me RTS games are like a drug. I can easily get lost in them and play for 10-15 hours straight due to how my brain is wired. That doesn’t mean I never play them, but I treat it with the same respect as a drug, and use them in moderation.
