Concerning Warcraft

Okay I recently tweeted at Blizzard Entertainment about why the original two Warcraft games aren't available on their storefront at Battle.net and they tweeted back basically saying that it's "unfortunate" but III is on there and no that's not good enough for me.

I mean they've got World of Warcraft and its latest expansion coming out, Overwatch too and I just recently saw the Warcraft movie yesterday as of writing this and I loved it! But anyhoo they still have Diablo I and II, StarCraft, and Warcraft III in their Classics section but why is Warcraft I and II left to abandonware they should've rereleased the first two games to prepare the fans of this beloved franchise for the movie we've all been waiting for.

If I was working at Blizzard this would be my vision for not just a rerelease but a total remaster of both games: both games would be rebuild together as Warcraft The Beginning. This would include six campaigns(two from Orcs and Humans, two from Tides of Darkness, and two from Beyond the Dark Portal) and include all new cinematic sequences that Blizzard is famous for. Keep the gameplay the same as the originals but maybe make it in 2.5D graphics maybe even on par with Warcraft III but still keeping the topdown camera making this idea a prequel to III. Going back to graphics for a moment give the player the option of choosing to play the game in all three styles(I, II, & TB) and also making this available on PC, console, and mobile too.

Anyway these are my thoughts on what Blizzard should do with their games and what I'd do if I was there.

I hope you enjoyed reading and please make your opinion known down below I look forward to reading your comments.
