Why?

Do people want to play Warcraft 2? I have a lot of nostalgic memories of when I played it as a kid but unlike the other remastered old Blizzard games, it isn't very good by 21st century standards.

Honestly, just remaking it in the sc2 engine and I would have fun playing through the campaign again.

Someone is already remaking wc3 in the sc2 engine and the campaigns are a blast.

I would like to play a reimagining with only the two factions and not two many unit types. If they updated with modern QoL but kept the actual mechanics simple it would make a nice casual game.

But what do I know, I think that Anno on Wii is the best Anno.
