That game has a lot of potential and good underlying mechanics, I guess I would have got bored of it but we've been able to mod it in new ways in the past couple of years. If you are a PBEM or live game type you could join the discord and play heavily modded multiplayer.Most games lose their appeal eventually and most games age poorly too. Not many I still would want to play after years/decades. The saddest for me is Age of Wonders, I used to play that over and over for many years. It never got boring for me because I used to like the comfy repetition and I got to try new stuff sometimes. It all had a sense of wonder -.- about it which was mostly because the maps seemed huge and I was such a noob that it took me forever to go through them. So I'd play that map for days until it was done and loved it. But when I play now it all feels so small and such a waste of time. There's not that much to do and not much in the game, most of what you are doing is chores of clicking ok on 20 things each turn. If you speeded it all up and cut out all the crap it would be 2 minutes. It just totally lost all interest to me suddenly. The battles are the best bit and for that I may as well play KOTC or something which is better and more focused on it. I also feel like my love for it in the past stopped me from questioning all the stuff that sucks about it. Now I see so much wrong with I rather just play something else.
anyway does anyone have any tips to have any kind of fun back of games you already enjoyed and completed?

Actually Diablo 1 is not a game that threats players like that. It's just a very simplified dungeon-crawler / roguelike-ish game. What you have in mind are Diablo 2 and everything that came after it that copied its formula.When I was 13 years old I played Diablo and was like "Yeah, edginess, demons, a Scottish blacksmith, this all so original and cool!" while nowadays I just think all Diablo style games suck because they are shit games that treat players like mice on a wheel.
I just fell in love with an easily accessible game
Have you looked at the Groll maps? https://aow.heavengames.com/downloads/lister.php?category=single&author=Groll
Hmmm...for me AoW is one those games that I actually enjoy more now than when I last played it heavily 15 years ago. And I don't even play MP. But there's lots of user-made maps of high quality.

Played too much, seen too much, every iteration of game mechanics have already been experienced.
