Come on, guys, let's be real for a moment.
Dune II?
Nobody argues the importance of that game. Or that it has that incredible oldschool charm.
But the clunkiness, the UI, the "flow" of the game... just
look at it.
Nobody would play a game with gameplay like that today for any reason other than nostalgia.
We played it back then because there was nothing better - and only few games from back then we still play today because there
still is nothing better (see the old XCOMs/OpenXCom, or AoE3, or the HD remakes of AoE2 & 1).
But I bet almost everyone would rather play the latest installment of C&C (as in the latest that didn't suck) than Dune II.
Or even Emperor: Battle For Dune to stay in universe
Of course, the poll said "your favorite", so nostalgia is valid here, too.
Just denying that nostalgia is the only reason some games get a vote in that list is pretty silly.
You have my permission to retard-vote me for this, though. I know the truth hurts.
