Warcraft

I was really into Blizzard's real-time strategy game Warcraft.  But went to role playing in World of Warcraft, they lost me.  I don't have time for that kind of gaming these days; I really like real time strategy.  Just playing the against-the-computer modules was fun enough; I never played much against other people.  I tried Starcraft but the visuals were too dark; I literally couldn't see anything.  I liked the bright visuals of warcraft.  Warcraft III is available as the continuation of the Warcraft real time strategy game but I don't really have time to check it out.  It probably has a lot of changes.  I wonder if it still plays like Warcraft II.
