Was moving groups of Goliaths and Siege Tanks up a ramp always so painful? Save often and always, is the key when playing through the campaign. Also, there’s the finnicky AI pathfinding. Like for example, only being able to select and group a max of 12 units when trying to move your army. By not changing the core StarCraft mechanics, there were also a few not so positive “this is how I remember this” moments with StarCraft: Remastered. It’s been at least a decade or so since the Brood War CD lying around here somewhere was anywhere near an optical drive, so it goes without saying that firing up StarCraft: Remastered for the first time was an almost overwhelming nostalgic experience.īut, nostalgia can also be a funny thing.
Both as a single-player sci-fi story, and as an online multiplayer game where connecting to required a phone line and something that people used to call a “modem”. Yeah, this review comes from the perspective of someone who’s played a lot of StarCraft in the past. In the sense that it was always meant to look like this. With switching to the original low-res presentation causing your brain to reject what you see as some sort of falsehood. In fact, as the original came out so long ago the new and impressive HD visuals will instil an impressive sense of “this is how I remember this”. Featuring new high-definition art and animation, re-done voices and remastered music, StarCraft: Remastered doesn’t mess with the formula at all. With the release of StarCraft: Remastered, Blizzard is providing fans of the series and newcomers alike with the opportunity to relive, re-play, or simply play the classic game for the first time. When going online was still a relatively new thing.
And also, one of the most popular online multiplayer games for PC. With the subsequent release of the expansion, Brood War, StarCraft quickly became one of the most beloved releases in the RTS genre. A time when the real-time strategy genre was at the forefront of PC gaming. StarCraft, from Blizzard, was first released in 1998. There are only two ways to approach a remastered re-release of a classic game, either from the viewpoint of someone who has never played it before or from the perspective of someone that’s familiar with the original version.
