>>53545727You don't understand, it was the golden age of gaming for me, right above HL1 mods like Sven Co-Op, Brainbread, Zombie Panic, etc. I played Warcraft 3 a solid 10 years after TFT released with my buddies who I play games like Baro with today, we even had mapmaker friends, I even made Whiterun in DoBRP with guards that held voiceboxes with lines like "Let me guess, someone stole your sweetroll?" When your RP character would walk up and talk to them. I was part of the guild GoTE and the WC3Diplo community, we made and fixed many maps and held many tournaments, etc. But mostly me and my buddies went around trolling people all the time. I also played many of the custom campaigns, hosted on sites like WC3 Hive/Workshop
There has not been anything as good in gaming since for me, even with my love of TES, Dark Souls, etc.
