    Bought it, downloaded it, saw the cut-scenes they claimed to have been "reforged" but was actually the same. It's basically the same engine and they squeezed in the 4K graphics they are so proud of which made the same 2002 engine choke.

    We wanted a remake, not a reskin.

    This sorry of an excuse of a game is the yet another example of Blizzard falling deeper into a constant and endless state of disappointing a once proud fan-base. It is both sad, yet not surprising somehow that their falling from Grace seems to be the default now, and unfortunately will be from this point on.

    Too much game time was used. Refunds are aimed more at mistakes or technical issues that prevent the game from even launching, so the time limits are very strict.

    That said, every game has its own requirements and demands on a PC. I definitely recommend reaching out to our Tech Support for assistance in troubleshooting the glitches that you're getting because there's a good chance that we can help fix them:    … Expand

    I am certainly not a person who reviews/give a opinion for a game because everyone has his own opinion/expectations, but after 6 hours of playing the 'Warcraft 3 reforged' campaign with lots of bugs/issues which many people stated before I had to create a metacritic account to write something about it how shocked I am about this product.

    I bought my first PC back in 2002 with Warcraft 3    I am certainly not a person who reviews/give a opinion for a game because everyone has his own opinion/expectations, but after 6 hours of playing the 'Warcraft 3 reforged' campaign with lots of bugs/issues which many people stated before I had to create a metacritic account to write something about it how shocked I am about this product.

    I bought my first PC back in 2002 with Warcraft 3 Reign of Chaos. This game was amazing, also the Frozen Throne Addon which was release 2003.

    I met so many nice people back in the days in Battle Net, we created a clan, We created lots of Maps with the World Editor which we played on LAN Parties, we played Ladder games so we had a lot of fun! Blizzard was the best company in the world in my opinion because you knew that when they release a game its not a beta game its a 1.0 Version not 0.8??? Version which is Warcraft 3 Reforged.

    I've never thought that it would be possible to ruin this experience with this disaster of a game, along without the possibility of not PLAYING THE CLASSIC GAME anymore! incredible! This feels like an 'out-of-season April's Fool joke' but it isnt! I feel so pissed about the Bugs ingame, the missing UI, the "Defeat" Problem when starting a mission in campaign and the performance. I feel like testing a software for 30 Euros as a beta tester(yes i am from Europe/Germany so sorry for my bad English ;) ).

    I will start to refund this game, despite it is said that if you click 'Start' in the Launcher you cannot refund the game anymore!

    They cant get away with that, everyone should know that Blizzard is not Blizzard anymore!

    So if you read this and u wanted to buy this game Dont do it! Maybe they will fix some problems in the next months but at this state you should not buy this game(wait for a sale maybe for 10 bugs).

    I give it a 0 because its still a beta and i cant give a critic to a game which isnt Version 1.0!

    Going forward, there are measures we must take. Wash your hands of Blizzard/Activision obvious money grabs. Mask up against their cunning promises and lies. Keep an eye out for more consumer oriented companies and funnel your nutrients/money to them. We should be promoting good behavior and vaccinating ourselves against the bad.

    Art Style: Vastly inferior to the original.
    Units Portraits: Worse than both SC2 (released:2010) and SC:R(2017). Have weird lightning and animations, very unpolished.
    Textures and Lightning: Bad for 2020 standards.
    Cutscenes: Let's not even talk about it. Just 1 new cutscene and looks like fanmade,    … Expand

    Made an account just for this. i almost bought the game within a heartbeat just for the experience of playing many old favorite custom maps with friends. Changed my mind thanks to Blizzard's new policies regarding custom maps and intellectual property. Guess it was futile to hope they would make a turn for the better after the HK censorship debacle.

    Players of the original game are forced to upgrade to the new client, which is borderline unplayable.
    Constant crashes and lag as well as desyncs in custom maps, and missing features (no ladder etc).
    The new Eula that gives blizz ownership over any custom content means this game will quickly become a ghost town. Missed opportunity from a company well past its prime.

    3 of 10 points for better modelgraphics (i like elves buildings - anyhow in multiplayer right now I prefer old graphics cause better visibility/contrast/performance) and the rerendered intro and upscaled.

    I am a mass German WarCraft 3 Player (2nd German Illidan - about 25k games overall) with semiprofessional history (Top10 Ladder in AT and RT several times) and even when i did not play several years I logged in with my mainaccount (all ICONS earned) every 3 months for 17,5 years!!!) so my achivements get not lost.
    If my Icons will get lost now (right now they are....!!#AaaaRGGH#!!, but Blizzard said, they will try to keep them as it is possible) i will make a really hard cut with my old love (best gaming forge of the old times) Blizzard.

    I payed over 4500€ until today for games, card packs and abos (and even much more for statues, fan stuff etc).
    After things with FREE Hong Kong, Diab. Immortal this REFORGED SCAM is too much - WarCraft 3 TFT is in my eyes the best game ever made (in sum of single- and multiplayer corresponding to the release time).
    I DEMAND very extensive rework/patches to this releases and I WANT MY hard earned Illidan, MAIEV, REXXAR, JAINA, SYLVANAS, ARCHIMOND Icons back (also the best atmosphere feature of B-NET, the good old automated tournaments!).

    P.S.: I hoped with a polished re-reales of this classical masterpiece a new player base would enter this legend and a fresh wind would blow through the realms - maybe even new tactics etc. coming.
    This chance was totally crashed ...
    There was a time, when release dates where determined by"WHEN IT'S DONE" and the games where created for players not for mass profit (on the long time side this is the same ... - cause you maybe lost me now ... it's too much) .

    Btw. FINALLY --> I got it refunded ...
    Money can be refunded, but faith can never be restored
    Hopefully Blizzard will learn from this and fix all the problems, polish the game to a maximum and add all the features and maybe now even more (as excuse!) than before.

    AND .... I WANT MY ICONS ....!!!

    P.S.: I keep upgrading this score, if Blizzard patches well!

Playing through the story, I stopped myself, whats the point? This adaption doesn't bring the game into 2020. At best it looks like it was made in 2010. It looks and feels like a cheap knockoff game to replicate the original. Makes sense considering the graphics were outsourced by a different company. Yup, the novelty wore off very quickly and I essentially payed $50 to play a crappier version of game I already had... Except... it’s not the same game, is it? It’s been culled of a lot of features and “updated” with promises that fell flat. Thanks for turning my favourite childhood game into a soulless cash grab.… Expand

    Blizzard's stance on the custom map community shows that they did not understand the appeal of wc3 was its custom games - by limiting the creative rights of map makers, they destroyed the only thing wc3 was good for.

I'm sure they will keep on updating the game until is playable but the least the could do is offering apologies and refund the people who is not willing to be a victim of a scam, because that is what an unfinished game sold as a final product is (not everyone has full internet access in the world to upgrade things every day you know? And even if they did releasing something not finished as ready it's extremely unethical, you could just sell it as beta until it gets to a stable state and no one would complain)

    Leaving that aside, everyone knows by now the problems this game has: not being the product that was promoted, having to start matches several times to be able to play (both offline campaign AND custom games), not having a ladder system, only remastering the intro video (seriously?) and basically deleting a lot of good features of the old game, wich by the way, you can't play anymore since this one replaced it. Oh, and blizzard owns any map you make now, wich probably means bye bye to any good custom map from now on, so that's pretty much dead now

    I really hope this game gets to a playable state soon, but even if it does I'm never buying a blizzard product again before it's release, not even a Warcraft IV (if it ever comes out), wich has been something that I wanted for years. I'l wait some months to see if what they are selling is playable

    Blizzard has addressed some of the complaints and criticism hurled its way, and has promised to work on many of these issues. Naturally, one must ask why the game was released in such a state, especially considering the negative attention the company has garnered over the past year with the reveal of Diablo Immortal and the Blizzard/China controversy.

    In the end it’s worth noting that when viewing a remake or remaster what needs to be taken into consideration is the source material, how it looks, feels, and plays. That is, in addition to the work carried out to recreate moments, update visuals, and change any of the presentation. To do otherwise would be silly, a terrible game with a wonderful remaster doesn’t warrant a high score. In the case of Warcraft III, the inverse to that is also true. So, what we end up with is something in-between. A classic reborn, in a package that doesn’t warrant all that much in the way of celebration.
