I’m old, but if you want to describe the graphics of the original Warcraft 1 & 2 that is a pretty fitting description.

It does seem a little disingenuous to not include any comparison images in the article. From the looks of it I’d say it’s pretty close to the original. Warcraft didn’t really get its modern distinguishing style before Warcraft 3. I’d be more curious about whether or not they kept the maximum unit selection at 4… which at least was 3 more than in dune 2, but probably not a great fit for 2024.

They increased the unit selection limit to 12.
