Yay?
I mean were people desperately chomping at the bit for a 20 year old game to be sold somewhere else?
I guess it helps keep the old games legacy alive, as GOG is the place for retro-esque stuff. But i doubt this is anything too significant.

The thing is this is the first time Blizzard done such a thing in a long while, because they tend to hold their games very exclusively to themselves.CritialGaming said:
And its announced they are gonna sell Warcraft 1 and 2 on GOG as well.
And mabye the more important games like Diablo 2 and its expansion Lords of Destruction. Starcraft 1 and its expansion Brood War. And Warcraft 3 and its expansion the Frozen Throne.
And Diablo 1 was not sold anywhere else, not even from Blizzard's own stores, unless you buy a Disc.
Yeah it must have to do with them not wanting to adapt the Battle.net service to the old games. So they put them on GOG instead.
I doubt you'll see a Starcraft though because that has been remastered on B-Net.
It seems like they are opening up their old games (without remaster potential or plans) to GOG. Which is fine. I just don't think it'll end up being as big of a deal as people think. Great for those who wanna play the old games again.

Diablo 2 doesn't have a remaster at the moment. So mabye we will see that on GOG?CritialGaming said:
Sure, assuming a remaster isn't planned. But since they didn't already announce it i feel like we might see a diablo 2 remaster announcement this year at blizzcon or Gamescom. Which I would much rather have.Samtemdo8 said:
That too, but they might also remaster D2 in the meantime to keep people satisfied. Even if they announce D4 it wont be out until at LEAST 2021-22Samtemdo8 said:
I never liked the first game very much. Playing it after 2 it felt like several thousand steps back.
I know. But I still find the game simple enough to beat it in the end.Johnny Novgorod said:
But goddamn. You attack with every click of the mouse you do.
The slow as fuck walking speed since the character can't run.
TBH, I liked D1 more than D2. For me, D3>D1>D2.
On the other hand, what has me most interested in all this is the prospect of Warcraft II. Warcraft I's aged like milk, but WC2? Well, maybe not "fine wine," but at least it's still drinkable.

I never even made it past "Aaaah, fresh meat!". Digging myself deeper and deeper into those dungeons was so boring. Do you ever go to another location or is it just burying deeper within the same dungeon?Samtemdo8 said:
Few points:Johnny Novgorod said:
-Don't go straight to the Butcher. Skip him, clear out a few lower levels, then go back.
-It's all the one dungeon, in as much that the game space consists of Tristram and the levels of the cathedral. However, the levels shift over time, from the cathedral/catacombs, to the caves, to Hell. The shifts come with the environmental changes you'd expect, along with increases in difficulty.

Didn't Blizzard literally already give that away for free before the remaster launched? Why put it on gog for people to buy you can get it for free form Blizzard directly?Samtemdo8 said:
