One of the best OSTs ever to grace PCs. That's no lie. I listen to it to this day.

It's the reason why Warcraft 3 and beyond were so disappointing. They never reached the heights that II did.

Truth.

Add to that the grim orcs versus humans narrative instead of the kuumbaaya orcs from WC3 and they ample quantity of dark humor and you have one of the greatest RTS games of all time.

I hope kuumbaaya orcs becomes a new catchphrase.

It was the first pc game I purchased. Me and my brother were really hyped for this game and decided to buy it together. I loved everything about it : the graphics, the art style, the difficulty, the editor, the LAN against a veteran were I was utterly destroyed for only having played singleplayer, and of course the amazing soundtrack.

Warcraft III is overall a better RTS but this game still hold a special place in my heart. And now I hope for a Warcraft IV with less focus on heroes and the return of naval battles.

Oh man, YES, the level editor. Spent way too much time recording voice clips with a shitty desktop mic and pitching it down to make ogre voices.

I taught myself a bit of QBASIC in order to make up my own campaigns. I made a bunch of maps in the editor and named them random stuff like r39c3gh. You'd go through the amazing story I'd wrote, pick some basic choices, it would tell you what map to go play and how to get back to that point in the story to continue when you were done. And yep, totally recorded my awful voice for some units. I was pretty much the coolest kid around.

Where is my HD remaster of this Blizzard

Why do you bury me in torments?

I still have the Battle.net Edition. Wonder if it'll work on Win10? Might need to give it a try.
