Damn. I remember learning about Warcraft III because I found some sort of gameguide about it at a thrift store and bought it. I read that shit religiously, was covinced it was better than WOW (yes, I knew what WOW was but not anything that came before) and eventually convinced my parents to pool enough money to buy it. I don’t even want to think the ungodly amount of hours I must’ve put into that game lol. Good times.
How blizzard fucked it up is beyond me.
I remember taking the wav files from
Warcraft 2 and setting them up as the sounds on my computer. When the opening sound to windows was “I’m alive!” I was pretty sure I was a hacker.
Best ARPG that defined the genre along with debatable the best multiplayer RTS. Yes Starcraft is great bit 4 unique races and everything about them was amazing. Miss it.
Imagine being a company eager to own another highly successful company and once you own them you think, “Sure, they’re having hits way better than any I’ve ever done, but I know better how to make them make money.”
Oh, Bobby. You didn’t leave any trace of Blizzard at all.
EVERYBODY IN THIS THREAD WHO IS FEELING NOSTALGIC FOR D2 SHOULD PLAY PROJECT DIABLO 2 IT IS SO SO SO GOOD AND A NEW SEASON JUST DROPPED THANKS FOR COMING TO MY TED YELL.
Warcraft II was better
Diablo 2 was good for the time period it was released in but it has since been surpassed by other games, mostly Grim Dawn.
10,000% agree
StarCraft is better than both
That was before the dark times… before the empire
Some would disagree with you but to each his/her own.
Wowowow what a blast from the past, ill never forget living in the custom games of warcraft 3
I have memories of Diablo 2 on disc, and memories of Diablo 2 from being downloaded. Man, the disc memories are awesome.
The Diablo franchise peaked at D2, it all went to shit after.
smart move scratching out those cd key codes

I remember playing Frozen Throne for hours on hours y’all. That online mini game lobby was just too fun
Throw in StarCraft and you got the three best games ever made
I feel like every Diablo 2 cd case has a crack in it.
Holy fuck that brought back memeorys i forgot existed i used to play the shit out of frozen throne 3 when i was like 7
I still play the custom games from war3
Stay a while and listen.
The first time I ever seriously roleplayed, like truly becoming a character, was on StarCraft’s roleplaying server. It was so much fun.

“I’m moving.”
“WHAT IS IT NOW?!”
Frostmourne hungers!

I just installed my old copies of WarCraft 3 and The Frozen Throne on my brand-new laptop. So good, don’t need the Blizzard client or anything.

Back in the day, when Bobby Kotick was still residing in hell.
Theyre not even the greatest in their own genre.
Back when Blizzard was the greatest developer in the world. They were incredible back then.
Man do I miss this blizzard
Just add StarCraft for the trifecta of awesomeness. So many hours on those games. Damnit, now I want a PC again.
I played wc3 so much that I recognized it as an unhealthy addiction in middle school and snapped the disc so I couldn’t play it anymore.
Then I bought another disc
Back when everything blizzard touched turned to gold
nope
You even have the cracked case edition of D2 like so many of us. Truly a masterpiece.
that’s not Rollercoaster Tycoon
Put also BroodWar in there!

WC3 custom games was a toy chest of endless fun
There hasn’t been a gaming outlet like it since. They tried with dota2, and granted that did give us AutoChess… but still.
WC3 custom games are unrivaled.
Back when blizzard made good games.
There’s Blizzard, and then there’s Activision-Blizzard.
