I'm an rts fan, and while I started on homeworld (too stupid to get past 3rd level), blizzard has done me justice falling in love with the genre.

I got into the games in order of warcraft 3>>frozen throne>>starcraft 1>>starcraft 2. I'm so content with these games that even after playing a dozen others I could still just play bliz rts exclusively and still be content.

Older bliz fans may knock sc2 cause it doesnt have the mood or writing of the 1st game, but if you regard the gameplay, it's as fast and polished for it's time as the original was. I still havent played an rts after 2008 that has surpassed its mechanics and smooth gameplay, or half as competitive in multiplayer.

My gripes were when the game went online only. I remember playing bots to practice offline, then after time I went back and I could only play bots in online games I hosted by myself, such a backwards idea that takes an unnecessary toll on machines that would be fine offline.

The upside is recently they made the game free, which I used to get a few friends into the game, and their not great but they got good enough to play co op together for fun.

Never cared much for diablo or wow, so I didnt really care when those games got worse with bliz over time, I just care about their rts, and we'll have to see how warcraft3 remaster turns out but I'm still excited, but I am still concerned with how the whole online only experience has been going, sc1 certainly wont be any less enjoyable in decades to come based on how the servers are faring, single player is still pristine.

>inb4 warcraft 2 fans tell me my taste are shit because they refuse to admit sc1 is the gold standard of rts
