It's been said a million times. Blizzard just got lucky with BW.
Lost vikings, Rock n Roll Racing, and Blackthorne were OK.
WC1 was suck.
WC2 and expansions were pretty cool, but the game was lacking a lot (mainly because it was sorta pre internet). And the game is still hugely imba and buggy.
Diablo 1 was ok. A bit slow and online lacked as well.
Diablo 2 was cool for a while, the expansion sort of made it absurd imho.
SC was sort of shitty, BW was sort of shitty until it got patched pretty great and then KESPA/ESPORTS took over the balance via maps and bugs and what not.
WC3 was ok. TFT was slightly better, but still the game was tired and didnt feel exactly right as an RTS. Pretty imba, too much luck, repetitive maps, etc.
WC1&2 were great.For their time.For myself after playing Dune 2 for hours on end (one unit selection at a time) it was good to be able to select 4 per time as in WC1.WC2 was technically even better and i played for hundreds of hours.Both great games for their time but i have not played either in over 15 years.
As for WC4, i don't see it happening anytime soon.It could seriously undermine this heroes of the storm MOBA thing since a huge % of WC3 players just did those customs and that would carry on to WC4 customs.Maybe in 5-6 years though.
