I have close to 50 games in my Steam library but none of them fight the bill for my recent cravings: RTS-Adventure games. Basically, I am talking about games like Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood, Commandos 2: Men of Courage, and Myth II: Soulblighter. If I distill out the stuff that I liked from these games, we get:

Fluid game-play, animations, and controls
Interesting stories (Myth II had an exceptional one)
A well-balance difficulty curve and non-linear solutions to problems. You can brute force through the problems them but it is a lot easier to experiment with different strategies to solve them


Basically I want a game that has a healthy mix of the 3 ingredients mentioned above and conforms to the following rules:

The core of the game (like Myth) must be single player
The game must be available on PC and without requiring spyware Origin. Steam is, obviously, accepted
Graphical fidelity is not a strict requirement, but please no 8-bit or pixel art. Robin Hood is pretty much the lower bound of what I reasonably expect


I know that I am being quite specific, but I hope it can help you guys come up with recommendations. Thanks, in advance!
