What's a game you loved that got a sequel you came to dislike? (hexbear.net)

For me it's Diablo II. Granted I've played my fair share of D2 since launch, and also recently on a private server with a comrade from hexbear, but I still feel like years later the game didn't grab me as much as D1 did.

Granted I don't hate D2, but for a game that I keep coming back to, D1 takes the prize.

I’d love to buy Reforged just for the fantastic-looking Warcraft 2 mod but I feel dirty paying any sort of money to reward that lousy attempt of a remake (and I don’t think it’s been cracked). Plus, I absolutely despise Battle dot net, so there’s that.

It's cracked. Tho there were no ql improvements, so it's somewhat clunky to play. The StarCraft remastered is also cracked. I did not know about the warcraft 2 mod, thanks.

Ah, not sure why I assumed otherwise.

And yeah, Chronicles of the Second War looks like a great modernization of the original, as someone who obsessed over Warcraft 2 back in the day. Human campaign is still under development though.

It did take a long time to get cracked, and the scene is not good right now. AnywY, thanks that looks cool.
