Not only that, it's still active, including a competetive scene with regular livestreams and tournaments.

I did come across the competitive scene there about 2 years ago. Honestly I found it both fascinating and a bit disheartening. There was I happy with my occasional dad game where I was regularly beating the AI on one of the higher levels. Nope. Apparently still a noob after 25 years.

The speed and accuracy that they move and build at is astounding.

The new AI is astounding. I haven't played in a while but I never was able to beat the harder difficulties. Even at my sweatiest

sweatiest

First read: Sweetest

Second read: I hear you deep down

I guess this is not because of how good the "AI" is, but because it automatically gets note resources than any human player.

The rewritten ai doesn't cheat like the original! It's just amazing!

Never thought I'd say this but the personalities are great to. It's like a worlds fair of cool dudes who can do unbelievable shit
