RTS games generally aren't my thing, mostly because I'm not very good at them. But I loved the original Homeworld: Enemy AI was too easily exploited (although for me, that's a feature, not a bug) but the setting and presentation were magnificent—more than enough to make it one of the most unforgettable games I've ever played.
I'm not the only one who thinks so: PC Gamer's Fraser Brown, who very much is a strategy guy, said a few years ago that even after decades, Homeworld is still his "dream RTS." That's a pretty powerful recommendation.
