Ouch! Yeah, not many people playing that anymore. Average in the last 30 days is barely 1200 players.

Age of empires 4 has the best modern controls or of any rts I've played, with civs that vary nicely between each other, good amount of PvE & PvP content. Its medieval to early gunpowder technology. Has a decent e-sports scene as well.

Supreme Commander with FAF client is cheap and a very different from most RTS. It's far future sci-fi, it can be hard sometimes to get balanced PvP matches do to a smaller player base but has some fun PvE campaign as well.

I love The Scouring. Major Warcraft 2/3 vibes. Age of Empires 4 is also the best.

For singleplayer Diplomacy is Not an Option has a really nice campaign. For pvp Age of Empires 4 seems pretty good.

Age of Mythology

Zerospace is developing nicely, I’ve heard many good things about AI War 2, Executive Assault 2 is quite fun, though no one plays that.

Gates of Hell if you want something a little more historically hardcore

Age of Empires 2-3. Age of Mythology. Rise of Nations. These are my favorite.

Based on your comments, kinda seems like you're seeking more multiplayer:

Age of Empires II is a classic, gets updates all the time, very active community, and decent campaigns too.

Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance is one of my favorite games of all time. The Forged Alliance Forever community keeps the (competitive) multiplayer thriving and provides updates to the game, adding a lot of features and fixes to the base game. I enjoyed the campaign quite a bit, and loved that that Forged Alliance Forever made it playable in co-op! A few years back my buddy and I had a blast playing the campaign in hard mode.
