A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

In the context of the leaked Warcraft II remake, do you still trust Blizzard to produce good games? (lemmy.cafe)

I've long stopped caring about them, really. From what I've heard, the Diablo 2 remaster was pretty good, so it's likely that Warcraft 2 might actually be a good remaster, too. It's not like they're promising a whole world of stuff like they did with Warcraft 3 Refunded.

Me? I ain't buying it. BRL buying power is shit 🇧🇷 🏴‍☠️

Broodwar remaster was also good. If they faithfully uprez the graphics, fix severe bugs, and do nothing else then there's hope. The 2D remasters have a good track record so far.

That said, had anyone played WC2 recently? It's pretty rough. It's fun for nostalgia sake and if you're into the lore of Warcraft or the history of RTS, but it doesn't hold up like Broodwar still does.

Yeah like what’s actually the point? WC2 is not a game that holds up today compared to where the genre has gone.
