Really? The campaign in TFT was pretty awful, the multiplayer is really the only reason a lot of people played the game.

Strangely, I've been thinking of WC3 lately, I might have to hop on ladder later and play some games.... (if I can remember how to play O.O)
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Saying it was awful is a bit harsh though don't you think? I played it through without getting the feeling of grinding until the next story segment, which made it enjoyable for me. I hope you don't run into lossbots on the ladder

Me either, but if I go onto ICCup I'm going to get destroyed. Also I don't feel like installing the ICCup client.

I'd prefer WC4 to be more like WC2 in all honesty.
Y'know sometimes people ask me y'know like "What's your religion and stuff?" And I'm like "y' know it's like RTS." Uh, and they're like, "What's that?" And I'm like, "Y'know it's kinda like, kinda like Buddism."

Personally I'd see atmosphere or art style similar to WC2. If you ever thought about it, the storylines for WC3 seemed somewhat dark, but they never felt dark like in WC2. I don't know, whatever muse that Blizzard was using in the 90's (Warcraft, Diablo, and Starcraft) seemed darker than it is today. While they have gotten MUCH better at designing single player levels, there's a more subtle shift away from something I can't quite put my finger on.

That and they need to start adding more cutscenes back in. We used to get one every 4 missions, now its one at the very end of the campaign. I'd settle for several lower quality ones for cost sakes, but they really helped build the atmosphere as you played the game.

The graphics haven't aged well, but that intro has been burned into my mind.

Ah, and I miss the old narrator

But I would love to see a Warcraft IV in any event. Warcraft 2 introduced me to Blizzard games and I've finally played through WC3. I never played those games multiplayer, but I legitimately enjoyed the campaigns of both.

I think there's this huge karmic balance in the sky. For every one of Acitivision's cash-cow sequel releases, a Blizzard sequel gets delayed by "soon". :/

I was kind of young to properly have enjoyed WC3 but it was nonetheless a good time and we wouldn't have Dota etc without it. WC3 was a monumental game and I hope WC4 can be so as well.

Honestly, the lore was pretty skewered when WoW took over the story telling portion of the franchise. It like doesn't even make sense anymore. Pandarens? What next? Flying space marines? I'd love to have Blizzard just take the lore from WoW, redact it so all that nonsense is removed and then develop WC4 for a better canon experience.

The WC3 single-player is fucking amazing. I'd do the same.

The SC2 single-player makes me cry at how much lost potential there is. Goddammit, Blizzard. Whyyyyy?


Absolutely. Though Gheed raises a valid point.

I think ultimately the reason WC4 will never exist is because they screwed up and forgot this was the age of simplification, thus DoTA and MOBAs happened and so WC4 never will

I hope I'm wrong.

Edit: Also, this:

I think that Blizzard really was shocked and unprepared for how popular WoW was, and they just got completely sucked into concentrating on it. Now they have a team working on SC2, and Diablo3 (i guess small teams since everything takes so long), when they are finished with these projects I wouldn't be surprised if they made WC4. I just think it is awesome that they decided to finally get back to the kind of games they used to make before WoW. I mean, even if they decided to make a new MMO, it wouldn't have the same impact on the business as it did before because they already have the infrastructure in place. I played WC3 when it first came out (I still have the game), but only single player because tbh back in the day not everyone had internets available to them and online play was not a common thing like it is now. Maybe I will give WC3 online a try sometime, it seems like there are some people who still play it.

Edit: Nobody cares about the lore. They can make it in a alternative reality universe as far as I am concerned.
