It was a great idea to make units get progressively more annoyed with repeated clicks, but I was extremely disappointed to find that all the units of each faction sound exactly the same. The missions make an effort to vary their objectives a bit besides "kill everything", but it pretty much boils down to that, anyway. The game was also quite possibly the first to include the now-ubiquitous feature of clicking and dragging a box to select units, but the fact that the player must hold control to do so is just baffling. By modern standards, the fact that you're limited to groups of four is somewhat aggravating. The most concise description of the game would be "Was highly innovative at the time, but is woefully outdated by modern standards."Ĭompared to Dune 2, the fact that you can select multiple units at a time was a great innovation. I'm a little over halfway through both campaigns of Warcraft: Orcs and Humans, and I'm sorry to report that there is a very good reason no one talks about it anymore. Clearly this travesty must be rectified at once. Only a few missions in it struck me that I'd never played the first game in the series, and in fact knew basically nothing about it. Once or twice a year the stars align and demand that I relive those wonder-filled days, but this most recent time was different. I consider it my intro to "serious" gaming, and it's little exaggeration to say that it changed my life forever. I was around seven or eight when I dragged my mother to the store to buy a copy of Warcraft 2.
