Blizzard recently released Starcraft: Remastered on the 20th anniversary of Starcraft (https://starcraft.com https://starcraft.com). Because much of the game balance relies on weird/buggy unit behavior, it was critical to keep the game code intact, so the developers only focused on a graphical, UI, and netcode refresh. It worked, and was successful, but it's been months since release and there are still huge bugs and general problems with everything they did touch.
