Age of Empires 2 is, I think, one of my favourites of all time. I have the whole series including AoE4 but I feel none of the others live up to AoE2. I do like AoE3 though. It stands out.
As for other RTS games I play religiously, the Anno series is first on my list because I love production chains and economic complexity that make it impossible to go from 0 to 100 within 10 minutes and conquer the world before having a civilisation to be proud of (I despise rushes). My favourite Anno game is Anno 1404. Others high up include similar games/series such as The Settlers (esp. Settlers II and III) but also Company of Heroes, Stronghold, Hearts of Iron and most recently: 0 AD.
The very first RTS game I played was the original Command & Conquer and it is what made me fall in love. I still play the series. I also played Warcraft a lot in the past and I definitely recommend it! Solid worldbuilding, I just prefer more historical settings nowadays.
Other games I play include Dungeon Keeper and Theme Hospital which really steer towards a different direction but are still quite fun. I'm also an avid The Sims-player (1, 2, and to a lesser extent, 3) and love city builders like Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic, the Tropico games, and Ostriv.
