Warcraft 1 & 2 Remastered require new hardware, not showing

I purchased this to play on an older machine, and the hard requirement for Opengl 4.6 makes that impossible.

So I logged in on another machine and the remasters no longer show up in my games list. The experience of resolving this has been a complete headache. For example I had to wait for a patch just to get this news, which should have been advertised much better on the purchase screen, battle net client is not good at all as far as launchers go, and the security makes this entire endeavor hard.

Anyway, while typing this out I logged out and back in a couple times on both machines (which is also a pain) and finally they show up.

At the end of the day the art is absolutely terrible.

It feels like they paid a friend and didn’t actually look for the right artist. This seems to be a very common complaint. So I would recommend anybody either looking for a retrogame, or wanting to see the new art, not even bother. Not worth your money. They did not deliver on either promise.
