Of course blizzard launcher has to be used to play the remaster, dude, it's 2018, otherwise the gaming experience wouldn't be right.

The problem with SC Remastered is more what they didn't change than what they changed. Basically, the Korean fanbase wanted nothing (except graphics) changed, so that's what they did. So the game still has the awful unit pathfinding and you can only select 12 units at a time. In addition, the animated unit portraits were somewhat SC2-ized in artstyle, so for example Zerrigan (both human and infested) looks like she did in SC2 rather than SC1.

Warcraft III already got an HD upgrade (res) patch not long ago.

Put me in the camp of "I'd rather Blizzard remaster/rerelease/rewhatever Diablo 1 and/or Warcraft 1+2".
The games are what they are and I see no reason to do anything other than scale the graphics. If they want to do more, then they might as well just make WC 4.
If they want to remove the limit, the right thing to do is to just make a new game where that's taken into account. I hate coming back to a game like Diablo II and finding out that they've nerfed all the fun bits out of it. A large part of the fun is getting so ridiculously powerful that you can take down entire armies single handed.
Obviously. Players aren't smart enough to know if they want to play singleplayer or multiplayer, so you better force them to play multiplayer and be online whenever playing.

Consider me hyped! A WC4 announcement that retcons WoW's lore would have been the best possible announcement, but I suppose this is the next best thing.
Hopefully we'll see a WC2 remaster somewhere down the line too.

Besides, I didn't like Warcraft 3 as much as I liked e.g. Starcraft.

Maybe they will give away the original for free like they did with Starcraft. I'd be content with that.

Everyone's talking about wanting D1,D2,W2 remastered instead. But how about remastering the Lost Vikings 1 & 2? That would be sweet!
Then again, those games are close to perfect as is.

I guess this makes it even more unlikely that Blizzards old classics will come to gog.com.

Yeah, and how Diablo 3 turned out to be too... I guess I simply am not Blizzard's target audience anymore, I am seeking a different kind of experience with my games that they'd like to offer. They are more interested into Korean and Chinese competitive online players at this point.
