It’s a shame this game isn’t on GOG—its campaign alone is worth it. In my mind, this is the title that really launched eSports. I’m not sure how accurate that is, but I remember a time when only StarCraft and Counter-Strike tournaments seemed to be running. It’s a huge piece of gaming history.
I was lucky to have access to this game shortly after its release, despite always being a bigger fan of Command & Conquer, Starcraft is without a shadow of a doubt, one of the most important games I ever played.
Not fully understanding English at the time made it difficult to make heads or tails of all the story bits, but while it wasn't the first game that made me realize the full potential of storytelling in video games, it did make me hopeful for the future of the medium even at a young age.
I have some important memories of hosting LAN parties at my house, only having access to two PCs, organizing very basic tournaments with friends and family.
It sparked a competitive spirit in me that, for the next few years, pushed me to plan and organize events that are still vivid in my memory. These events helped me shape a strong social life, that marked my first steps into adulhood and also helped me understand what it means to be an adult.
Thanks Blizzard, hopefully one day we see you release this game on GOG and help more people keep this alive so more people can experience it!
Another game from the golden era of Blizzard that should've been here for a while. We know how important this game was for E-Sports, but the campaign is also worth it, i still remember and quote this game at times.
EN TARO TASSADAR!
It was an innocent age of pizza, PC games and LAN parties. Even hulking around the heavy CRTs was worth every drop of sweat. Set up, connect and go. And why did Blizzard kill the "you can join a hosted game without owning the game" feature? Those where the days
This game in its original form notbeing on GOG is tragic. It launched esports and consumed me and my friends in the 90s to play by lan party or even dailing up to eachother. It was one of the most enjoyable scifi settings of my teen years and I still meme quote units from it to this day at times.
Ohh I remember playing this with my father back when I was 8. None of us understood English, but we used to spend entire afternoons and evenings together trying to understand what the umpteenth mission was all about and how best to proceed in order to accomplish the objectives. This was back in 1998-1999 and if I have to bring back a memory, a piece of software that defined that era for me, this would probably be n. 2, after Half-Life, or Quake 2.
