The entire concept was bizarre. All they needed to do was hire a team to bring the Warcraft 3 content into the Starcraft 2 engine, and leave the old game alone. Instead someone pitched "play them both at the same time" as if 2d and 3d games can work the same way like Starcraft remastered. I was pretty horrified when they announced it 1.5 years ago.
The new game was dragged down by the old software engine and deciding to keep cross play between a 2002 engine and a 2020 game. Stupid. I think they got misled by all the Crash Bandicoot type remasters into thinking this was a good idea.
