Only enjoyable for nostalgia's sake
I never played the originals back in the day and trying to pick them up now is impossible. These games stink compared to modern RPGs. I know it's not fair to judge them this way but when it's my time and I can choose playing say Dragon Age Origins, Skyrim, or even a dungeon crawler throwback like Legend of Grimrock vs these I'll chose the new games every time. The mechanics are just too difficult to understand. I had no idea how to equip stuff or do stuff without googling the action commands to type. Then I got in a dungeon and got completely lost and killed by a rat. That's fine for 1985 when you bust out pen and paper to draw a map cus your pc had like 4k of RAM or whatever, but in modern age I don't want to be bothered with such tedious things. There's also very little rpg stuff going on, not a lot of story or character progression. I guess this is like the skyrim of the 80s but it pales in comparison to modern games. It's kind of like holding a Model T up next to a Ford Fusion. The first is fun to look at and talk about and drive on sunday's for a bit but just mechanically inferior. Unfair comparison but true. (Note: I am in my 30s and love a lot of classic games. Master of Orion is one of my favorites and I did not play it until 2013 when I got it off Gog so I am not biased against all older games, just these ones)
