I mean, I would say this unironically.
I'll add that WC1 had fewer variances between factions. Orcs and Humans were almost identical. That made the game more akin to a real time digital chess than WC2, which made Orcs marginally more aggressive and Humans more defensive. I think WC2 is more fun because of the asymmetry, but that's purely a question of taste. I'm not going to begrudge someone who has a fondness for the original.
