Truthfully, Warcraft 1 holds up better than I would have thought. As characteristic of Blizzard, it is a large jump forward in an infant genre, and it's a well-polished experience. The only real issue is that small, basic changes that in a few years would go on to be entirely standardized across the genre, are not present yet. Some other ones actually are, but that doesn't change the fact that the vast majority of modern players will struggle terribly just to perform basic actions.

You'd be surprised though, how much of Warcraft 3 is already present in Warcraft 1... and man, I think that's actually pretty impressive.
