    I'm glad to see GOG standing by their mission statement. I want the Warcraft 1 and 2 bundle.

    Just subscribed. Since I have the original WarCraft III, that info was my trigger to finally buy first two games on GOG. Although I didn't know about the discount code, I do not regret these 50 PLN. I played them already and enjoyed them.

      I wish I had that kind of money, but sadly we need other things more so I won't be able to buy them.
      For the rest of you I wish you the best of time with Warcraft I & II and a Merry Christmas to all!

    Really well put together video that ends on a high note and leaves Blizz with something to think about. I already have the bundle over on GOG but it pains me to see them getting delisted regardless. That along with any sliver of hope for original W3+FT, Diablo2&LOD, Starcraft 1 or Blackthorne , Lost Vikings games etc ever released on GOG is now gone too.

    • @mickcraftgaming
      @mickcraftgaming  Месяц назад +1

      Thank you! I hope they take it into consideration. Unfortunately, this is probably a higher level type decision that the developers have little control over, so may be slower moving.
      Having the classic versions of WC3 and Diablo 2 on GOG would be amazing. Along with other classic Blizzard titles.

    The greed of Blizzard knows no bounds. They're mad that GOG has a better option than their remasters and can't handle the shame. I love the old WarCraft games, but the new Blizzard continues to disappoint.

      I think this is more about screws being turned and switches for monetization being flipped. Every money faucet must be enabled to start that Return on Investment, and this is the natural ramp-up it would have taken to analyze, hire, and implement 'remasters' for War1/2.
      For my part, the GoG edition of War2 is superior. However the QoL features already introduced in War1 Remaster make this the better choice for those looking to quickly blast through the gameplay and put it back on the virtual shelf. There's not a lot of reason to stick around with war1 no matter the version, compared to something like War2.

    Shame to see games getting pulled and delisted. We're already missing like 87% of old games because they're nowhere to be found to be purchased. Also, I still think you could do a playthrough of the Loria game here on your channel since it's basically Warcraft 2.5. Keep up the good work!
    I'd like the Warcraft I and II bundle, please.

    Just randomly spotted this video on Warcraft 3 Reddit. Thanks for bringing this thing to attention - I was putting off buying the bundle because I've never really experience the classics, but wanted to get around to them in the original form, without modern Blizz's slip ups (looking at you Reforged, even if they're working on you again).
    So thanks again for the video.

    Important thing to note with the GoG Warcraft Orcs & Humans is that you have the option to use General MIDI for your music needs, and thus can choose any number of MIDI devices such as real hardware sound modules like a Yamaha MU2000EX or Roland SC-55 to digital soundfonts like Arachno via VirtualMIDISynth.

    I still have my old discs of 1 and 2, but it is likely easier to rebuy to have a working version from GoG. And myself, I would prefer to get the GoG versions just to have the last original version since they updated War2. The new patch is nice, but having the old "final" version would be good. I'd like the Warcraft 1 & 2 bundle, and will still buy if not selected.

    • @ErikDvorak
      @ErikDvorak Месяц назад +1

      Nightdive tried that too and it resulted in quite a big backlash in the case of original Blade runner game (which has been returned back to the store since then). They are owned by Atari and try to get away now and then with the same shenanigans like any other corporation.

    • @mickcraftgaming
      @mickcraftgaming  Месяц назад

      GOG is a great spot to have it. I have Diablo there as well. I'm the same as you, still have the CDs but it's convenient to have the GOG launcher while also supporting their preservation efforts. I honestly kind of wish they just hired Nightdive to do these. Their Doom 64, Doom, Doom 2, Quake, and Quake 2 remasters are all truly top notch. I imagine the other work they've done is similar, I just haven't gotten around to testing it all out yet.
