Halo Wars 2 has been released and while some people have leapt at the chance to try it, others aren't so sure. Halo isn't generally an RTS series and Halo Wars itself wasn't loved much, so the sequel has some ground to cover. Also, RTS games and consoles aren't generally a match seen a lot.
Now a demo has been released for Windows 10 on the Microsoft Store so you can try before you commit money. It comes with both the opening mission of the single-player campaign as well as Blitz mode which combines a card game with RTS elements. It's strange but people who have bought the game seem to enjoy it.
Be warned though, if you decide to download the demo you'll need to have a chunk of memory free for it - 17GB. Chunky for a demo sure, but the full game just received a 10GB patch so the game itself is fairly large as well.
So give it a try if you're curious. Maybe you'll discover to your surprise that a console-RTS works fairly well after all.
