I never had a PC until WC3, I'd pop into my cousin's play every second I could get to play WC1 + 2. Once I had my own PC, I spent day and night playing and I was totally engross in the story. If anything, get it for the story, the choices you make and getting the girl. I'd always tried to ditch my wing man cause I wanted all the kills to myself. Great story, good game. Imagine my jealousy when my cousin showed up with WC4 when it was out.
