A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

For me it's Chrono Trigger. I always want to play it. I want to show it to my children. I hope it will be regarded as a masterpiece for generations to come.

For me, the controls are probably the only outdated thing in StarCraft, which is why it was fixed in StarCraft II. Oh and probably the very 90s soundtracks and early CGI cutscenes.

Other than that, I personally think StarCraft is one of the best games of all time. The plot, voice acting, character and unit designs are absolutely timeless. StarCraft is one of very few games that I can confidently say I'm suck at, yet still enjoy playing, with cheats if necessary.

For those who want to try StarCraft but put off by the outdated gameplay, I suggest installing StarCraft II (now free) and also installing StarCraft Mass Recall which is the remake of original StarCraft and Brood War expansion in StarCraft II engine.
