Instead of vast armies, this is all about handling a few small squads. Some things have changed, however, and mostly for the better, although some won't notice that from the beginning, like, for instance, the much lower unit cap, and how that's handled. Gather resources, build all sorts of structures, create an army, and fight. Note that, the bigger focus in story and lore is just one thing that Warcraft III feels different from its previous incarnations. Additionally, it's all too easy, therefore, unless a total newbie, be sure to select the hard difficulty setting. For starters, every time you enter a new chapter, and thus, follow a different race, the first couple of levels tend to be more tutorial-like than needed, instead of condensing more info in one to two maps. When it comes to the gameplay, however, it could be done a bit better. Unlike many a RTS that shoehorn a storyline just because they feel like they have to, this is a single player campaign that's worth revisiting, with a pacing that's worthy of applause, the developer's typical excellent voice-acting, and all sorts of interesting twists and turns at hand. …But it's the way a story is told that matters the most, and Blizzard's storytelling skill doesn't disappoint one bit, because simple or not, it will manage to keep you glued to your cheap, smelly, gaming seat. These can't get along because… video games, and thus, they must fight, fight, and then fight some more. Warcraft III adds two more races the agile and, surprisingly versatile, night elves, as well as the plague-turned-army of the undead, but the concept remains the same. Like with Diablo, The lore of the Warcraft franchise is far from original, as it's just another fantasy tale where brutish orcs meet steel-clad humans on the battlefield.
