![]() Such an amazing game! People give C&C too much credit in my opinion. WarCraft was the true trend setter for RTS games.

![]() Well C&C was also just inspired by Dune II.

![]() ...and it's not like Dune 2 was 100% original either.

Back to Warcraft, the second and third never held the same "magic" for me as the very first one, in spite of the clear innovations they brought

![]() Yes I agree there, the first Warcraft was different than the following two parts in a way, it has a special stern atmosphere that Warcraft II and III don't, imo.

Warcraft actually didn't change much about this - despite Blizzard having a lot of fans, they really mostly just took other people's ideas, changed them a little, and made a killing. Blizzard's success lies in polishing up existing formulas - WoW ripped off Everquest for like 80% for example, credit which is rarely given sadly enough. In any case, Warcraft is a good game but it still had all the weaknesses Dune 2 had: where Dune 2 used slabs, Warcraft used roads. Warcaft's interface was rigid and slow too, you could only select one unit at a time, the story was rather simple and only divulged between missions, etc. In fact, in several places, it was a step backwards. |
