    I think this is a joke, a cash grab attempt from Blizzard. I was not promised what was shown, things are not working in game and I have no choice but to update my old Warcraft3 now I'm stuck with both broken game, classic and reforged. I didnt even have a choice. I couldnt even refund. So much for a "reforged"

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Cut scenes have terrible quality. This game is more of a downgrade. There's also bugs when playing. The finish product is terrible. DO NOT BUY. Expand

    Well folks, unfortunately, this is not an out of season April jokes.
    Reforged just doesn’t look as good as it was promised. While the graphics are upgraded, cutscenes don’t feature the cinematic camera work that was previously advertised. You can see the comparison between the 2018 version that was playable at BlizzCon with the launch.

    I don’t even have to say anything. They took the best game ever made ( a fine 5 star turf and turf 7 course meal) and reduced it to stale McDonald’s.

    Time after time Blizzard is delivering us products or patches who are rushed / incomplete / or just seem to have a complete lack of motivation behind it. I would almost say stop paying for your Blizzard products until they step back up in the game of being a REAL game developer. Gamer's

    Game made by a company which is against human rights, supports fascist/communist regime.
    Oh the game? Lazy job done. With that budget they could've added more, reworked the graphics and everything. This is just a remaster, no effort cash grab.

    I'm not sure what Blizzard did with all the extra time it got by delaying the release. The final version is filled with bugs, was clearly not ran through a QA department, absolutely horrendous from a performance perspective, replaces the existing game with this new version and just all around stinks. To top it off, Blizzard's purchase system does not allow for refunds if you've "playedI'm not sure what Blizzard did with all the extra time it got by delaying the release.

    Oh, there's a memory leak in the main campaign to boot - so you have to exit and restart after every map anyway. Fantastic. Not to mention that Blizzard has been absolutely silent on the whole thing; definitely not worth the money. To see them create such a monstrosity from what was a masterwork of source material is just... sad.

    How they can continue to advertise this game using footage that ISN'T EVEN IN THE GAME is unbelievable. Bugs are one thing, network problems another, but wholly missing advertised features, cutscenes, and animations is beyond the pale.

    Blizzard should downright be ashamed of themselves. This isn't the company that made Warcraft 3. It's just a rotting corpse being reanimated by Activision.

    Bait and switch marketing campaign. Showed a completely different game in their marketing materials, delivered a complete disaster. On top of that, the original game has lost critical features in the process, forcing old users to purchase Reforged for the removed feature-set from the original game (such as Shadows in-game for example).

    The hype was gone in about 2 hours. The whole year of looking forward to the game and actually playing it gone. Dreams shattered. Beta was okay, sometimes buggy but somehow it was okay to swallow it, It was beta after all and every small tweak I just blew with "it's beta". Which comes to my summary. How is the """"""""""""""final"""""""""""""""""" version of the game any different from the beta besides added campaings? Well it has more bugs, you cant join lobbies, the campaingns are unavailable.

    I believe the game will get better in time, but for the sheer boldness of releasing this piece of trash it is a straight zero. Eventhough i have never given zero before, this absolute joke which tried to "steal" money from guys who wanted a nostalgia. Actiblizzard, burn in hell

    False advertisement during Blizzcon 2018, totally broke, slowness. They also broke the original game at the same time.
    Less features than the original Wc3, only remastered graphics (however cinematics are exactly the same). And if you liked making your own custom games, Blizzard now own them.

    The first thing that I want to point out is that I am very unhappy about the Critic reviews. They focus on Warcraft III more than they should instead of focusing on the false advertisement that is Warcraft III: Reforged.

    Warcraft III (RoC and TFT) have their respective scores and reviews and if you want to talk about them do it there however, giving Reforged praise because "It's still Warcraft III"? that is basically saying "Hey, good job! You didn't delete your game, gold star!". Reforge is NOT Warcraft III, it is more akin to a mod. You don't praise the original DotA because it was using Warcraft III Models, terrain, ect. You praise DotA for being a unique concept executed well and using those resources from the base game in a new and innovative way.

    And what did Reforge "reconstruct" that was so valuable? the models? or are you talking about the classic client that no longer exists, or the reconstruction of the forums by banning people? and how the hell does a review that lists ONE GOOD THING HAVE A 75 FOR A SCORE? ESPECIALLY when that ONE good thing is what they DIDN'T change...

    These critics really irritate me, worried more about their jobs and getting paid then the truth and the respect for the game. If any critic reviews this like they have and have played the original Warcraft III, then shame on you. You have let all of us, and yourself, down.

    Remember that apology they gave at Blizzcon 2019? How they 'Didn't live up to their high standards'? Is this their "High Standards"? Is this bringing the world together, or is it epic entertainment? Speaking of which there is a beautiful comment on that video...

    "Our wallets took a hit so we're going to throw out a cheap apology rather than change business practices. And since you're all stupid it'll work."

    Honestly I do feel stupid. I feel stupid that I gave Blizzard the hope that they could revive my favorite game, bring back what gave me YEARS of REAL Epic Entertainment. The game that created a Genre while commanding its own. Now what? Instead of inspiring the next generation to create the next Genre they are inspiring generations to leave them because they threaten to remove your rights if you have a single productive thought.

    As much as I want to keep going I will end this here before more critics start to post some stupid crap about how "It's still Warcraft III" because they don't have the integrity to tell the truth and fight for what we were promised, or at the very least the things we should have (like our rights).

    Blizzard komm auf n Discord Nuketown 1vs1, das geht so nicht.

    Ich war einst stolzer Besitzer der Classicgames, doch Papa Blizzard, dachte sich :" Brudi, Mashalla, so geht das nicht mehr " und entschied sich daher, mir meine Spiele wegzunehmen und zwangsweiße auf Reforged abzudaten.
    Was nun zuerst positiv klingt, lässt schnell nach, wenn man von dem Update bis auf die Tatsache, dass mir meine Erweiterung weggenommen wurde, es keine Ladder mehr gibt und der Multiplayer genauso viel Spaß macht wie eine Zahnop ohne Betäubung und Facharzt in einer Vertragswerkstatt, nichts hat, keinerlei Mehrwert.

    Die neue Soundausgabe, klingt als ob man einer Gruppe von jugendlichen Theateranfängern eine kleine Rolle im großen Unternehmen Activision Blizzard gegeben hätte.

    Also zusammengefasst:
    Pros:
    - Die Introsequenz ist neu - Doppel-Piece
    - Die Charaktermodelle sind auch ganz okay (auch wenn ich die als Klassikspieler ja nicht habe, Schade)

    Contras:
    - Was ein widerlicher Rip-off
    - Keine Ladder (Soll nachgepatcht werden, StarCraft Remastered lässt grüßen, immer noch kein 2vs2 Modus)
    - Wo ist Frozen Throne hin?
    - Keine Ladder ( Ja ich weiß Doppelaufzählung, aber ist ja bei einem kompetetiven RTS-Game mit 20 Jahren Liga, egal, braucht ja keiner)
    - Kein Onlineprofil
    - Keine Statistiken( Wer braucht schon ne Winrate, wenn er sich ja auch auf Mundpropaganda verlassen kann, um den Clan "Shadows of darkness" beizutreten) "Natürlich, habe ich eine 70% WR
    - Keinerlei merkliche Verbesserung
    - Für alle Nostalgiker unter euch, ihr müsst/dürft die Hotkeys auch weiterhin über eine .txt Datei bearbeiten, wie damals im Jahr 2000 #Retro
    - Die "SPECIAL" -Edition für satte 10€ mehr, damit man diverse Skins für andere Blizzard bekommt hahaha, weil Blizzard möchte ja nicht, dass ihr WC3 spielt, spielt doch lieber Hearthstone mit eurem coolen, neuen Kartenrücken

    Also alles in allem die Punkteberechnung:
    Klassik WC3 hätte bei mir ne 8/10
    Jetzt +1 für die Grafik
    =9
    - Contras
    =9

    Entspricht 0 Punkten
    Fazit: Ihr wolt Betatester für 30€ sein, na dann rein in den Aal. Ansonsten spielt lieber Star Craft 2 , das ist sogar FreePlay.

    I'am playing W3:TFT all these years, love it, never have any issue with it. And now I'am NOT.
    Just becouse some marketing vvh0re consider I now need a "REFORGED" version, what suck ALL THE WAY (Constantly crashes, lagging in frigin MENU!!!, broken custom maps). Why not allow older version stay where it is. That beyond understanding! (Imagine you never can play StarCraft without SC2)

    Pure false advertisement. Not what was promised to us and the way blizzard went about releasing this game without clarifying beforehand is purely evil. Whatever respect I once had for this great company long ago has died with this release. Shame on you blizzard.

    This was my most anticipated game of 2019. The promised Blizzard made at the 2018 Blizzcon promised more than just a remaster. They promised 4 hours of remastered cutscenes, even showing one during Blizzcon 2018. They promised new voice acting and campaign elements that linked Warcraft 3 to World of Warcraft. We were shown and promised a new UI.

    Did we get this? No. Nope. Nada. Do not

We were shown and promised a new UI.

    Did we get this? No. Nope. Nada. Do not buy. Avoid this game like the plague.

    Somewhere along the line, Blizzard decided to scrap these promises and kept very tight lipped about it. These highly liked promises that were shown are not in the game we got, despite some of these shown off previously.

    The game is now a much shallower version of the game we were promised. Yes, there are new models. These models that were outsourced to a Malaysian company that worked on the Starcraft remaster. So if another company is responsible for these models, what they hell is Blizzard responsible for here?

    -One recreated cutscene. Not the '4 hours' of remastered cutscenes that was promised.
    -No new UI
    -No new voice acting
    -No new story and campaign elements (The wikipedia entry has the gall to blame fan feedback for this)
    -a bug filled game, including a bug that 'auto fails' campaign missions.
    - A creation tool /custom game mode, where Blizzard owns any intellectual and moral rights to anything that fans create. Blizzard does not need to even credit the creator.

    How this game was released in this state is beyond me. What happened that all of these promised features were scrapped? The 'old' Blizzard would never have allowed a game to launch in this state. The old 'Blizzard polish' is missing and this is the worst game they have released.

    J Allen Brack. Hang your head in shame. Your predecessor Mike Morheim would never have allowed this.

    I'm seeking a refund.

    Warcraft 3 itself is a 10/10 game. But it is a game I've owned for years. Blizzard made me pay money to downgrade my experience of the game, and there's no way back to the game that I love.

    3- Why does this have LESS feature then the original.

    Not to mention the outrageous fiasco of copyrights for custom games! You will not see any of those you greedy fools, you've successfully castrated your own game! No more new custom maps (which were the bread and butter of the community) unless someone abolishes his claims to his own work(!!) so Blizzard can grab the cash with zero (0) compensation to the hard working individual.

    Summing up: Early launch with tons of issues (Framedrops, Bugs, Client performance)
    Advertising one thing and selling another: False promises for content, cut scenes, and more. Tying the content-creators' hands with new EULA. Refund fiasco with multiple rejections. I hope this game tanks hard and you get what you deserve for failing such a huge fanbase one more time. DON'T BUY THIS GAME. REFUND AT ONCE IF YOU DID.

    As for the game itself, it isn't much other than a "newer" looking version of the original game, and in many ways it is inferior. There are no clans. There is no LAN. There are no profiles. There are no ladders. There are no chat commands. There are rampant bugs. Custom campaigns are currently absent. Custom content is now the exclusive property of Blizzard. The list goes on. There is literally no reason to play this game over the original unless you like the new visual design which, for most, isn't even an objective improvement.

    This is the first hard pass of the year. Let the utter failure of this game serve as a lesson to those who still think pre-ordering is an okay practice. You are helping cases like this proliferate. Stop it. And stop supporting Blizzard.

    I couldn't start the campaign. Couldn't play custom games. There's no ladder and matchmaking wasn't even working. Menu is broken and some features don't work. The only thing I could do in the game was stare at the main menu and chat with other disappointed players in the global chat.

    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.

    If you set your expectations a little lower, then Warcraft 3: Reforged is a game worth of your time and money. Sadly, for many of us out there, we were expecting a little more.
