Given how many genres of games popped out of the Warcraft 3 ecosystem (dota, tower defenses, island troll tribes, survival games, rpgs, Pokémon-likes, board game likes, etc), it seems to me that Warcraft 3 is a perfect example of how much commonality exists between games that isn’t being exploited today — that it doesn’t require that much flexibility to support quite the variety.
