    The store page blatantly lies to you - This is not a new game. This is a reskin of a game that came out 18 years ago that they are selling to you - With Less content - For 30 dollars. Bobby Kotick is going to run Activision-Blizzard into the ground.

    Not only is this game riddled with bugs, missing basic features and is actually a downgrade (for example custom games), the abusive move by blizzard of forcing everyone to use this new (and inferior) version has to be illegal. I've had the original since it came out and now I can't play what I paid for (twice)

    Not only did Blizzard release a reskinned, bug riddled excuse of a "remastering", they removed the framework for the old version so you can't even use it on the battle.net launcher anymore. Pathetic.

    How can a Blizzard ruin my favourite game of all time like that? Whats happening in the game industry right now? I feel so sad for the developers and artists who need to work hard for this harsh deadlines instead of giving them the time and resources they need to bring a proper game without unfulfilled lies upon release ...

    Game is just a blatant case of false advertising and scamming trusting fans. It's somehow a complete downgrade in every way from the original 17 year old game. Shameful from Activision-Blizzard.

    Some people that defend the game cannot understand that what happened is a fraud.

    Everyone bought this, expecting the game of BlizzCon 2018 Demo, instead what was delivered is the old game with different models and icons and a very very little work on it. This goes for the cinematics too, they just made a new cinematic for the trailer, while everything else was kept as it was. If

    If these were the plans don't give fake promises and fake demos. No one would be so disappointed, if we knew from the beginning what we are getting.

    The most ironic fact is the one month delay of release, to do what? Maybe a whole year nothing was done and the project was left for the last month. The game is just a model reskin and came out full of bugs, looks like more like a mod, than a "reforged" game, and all of these at the price of 30 Euros.
    It's not even worth the money.

    The Blizzard everyone loved is dead.

    All i can say is, I am contacting a class action lawyer, he will GOBBLE this garbage up, I feel so betrayed by the company that I love that at this point its very hard to even trust them anymore, as an avid fan of Blizzard Games, they just dont have the passion or the fire that they once had.

    Their Core Values

    1. Commit to Quality - This clearly is not being followed as this game was delivered to us as a buggy mess. What happened to delaying games so that they can be polished for release? That hasn't happened since what Wrath? We have all seen the quality in their games diminish over the years and this is the nail in the coffin.

    2. Every Voice Matters - Clearly we are not being heard, even though they say they are listening.

    3. Gameplay First - Well, we can throw this one right out the window wit this game because for one, you can't play the game, there is no game play. This value needs to be changed to Money First.

    4. Lead Responsibly - Blizzard WAS once a leader in the gaming industry, that is no longer the case, because they blame the consumer for what they put out, they dont take any responsibility for their actions at all, and when we hear the "We are Sorry" letters, we are issued bans for requesting refunds on a broken game that looks NOTHING like it did at Blizzcon. Blizzard needs to take responsibility for their actions which they have proven time and time again that they just simply, cant.

    Need I say more? This is not the Blizzard Entertainment that I use to know and love. This is Bobby Kotick basically saying, push the game unpolished, we'll fix it later. This doesn't cut it anymore Blizzard

    Greetings. I don't like to give flat out 0 score as developers deserve some credit, this is a special case and I feel heart broken to the point to make an account to write this review.

    What I like: They kept original voice lines and dialogue (so far) which seem to be quite nice, I love how they respected this aspect of the game which brings memories and nostalgia. I'd give them a 3 instead of 0 for this alone, but they truly deserve this.

    What I don't like: Multiple textures used in the game looks like washed out compared to the previous teaser videos.
    With the release of WC3 Reforged, they also changed WC3(original) forcing players to update.
    The inability (at least I could not find an option) to go back to old model and textures like they did on SC1.
    Most cutscenes I got to see are far from dramatic and some even feel light-hearted, specially the one for the Culling of Stratholme... It feels like they are taking Jaina to disneyland! Where is the dramatic scenario? Where did art direction go?
    What they are doing to UMS to avoid another icefrog/dota issue which drives modders away.

    But what truly breaks my heart is the removal of Samwise Didier's icon for reforged and replaced by somebody else.
    Samwise is one of the most important people for the company and for one of my favorite games, Warcraft 3, leaving his icon would be a good sign to respect his legacy, maybe they removed it on purpose to not harm his image.

    I love the game. The visuals are so good! I’m literally spending entire minutes looking at each model and animations. I can’t get over it, it looks great! Even campaign cinematics (Which were not entirely reforged but you can see some great tweaks here and there) feel awesome.

    Classic is available if you are able to afford 30 gb of space. Now everything is integrated and easy to access

    The graphical changes is nice and I have a blast playing online
    That said so many features that were promised to be there are absent as well as missing features that used to be there in the classic version. Even though I enjoy myself, I can't remove that sour feeling in my mouth of feeling like they did the absolute minimum possible just to make a quick buck out of the nostalgia.

Это не с подачи обосрите эту игру как только можно, в первую очередь обсирают не игру, а те руки через которые продукт прошёл.

    Фактически, "Reforged" представляет из себя дешёвый любительский мод. Мод, который продают за 30 долларов (1300 рублей в России)

    Единственное профессиональное нововведение - новая русская озвучка (и она не без минусов, конечно). Однако в английской версии всё оставили как есть, а уровень оригинальной озвучки - весьма низок.

    There should be an award for **** up a game from 18 years ago and being so much about "profit" that the game feels like it's been cut down halfway into the development. Riddled with poor performance, bugs and looking like Frankenstein with some parts looking good and some not, the game is a disgrace to Blizzard's legacy and proves just how far they have fallen.

It’s not like we were expecting Warcraft 4, just a remastered version of a most influential strategy game to this date.

    This game sometimes looks worse than 20 years old original and it was advertised by cutscenes that are not existing in release version. This "game" is huge pile of disrespect.

    Totally unacceptable quality of the game.
    * UI broken
    * Lags when creating custom games
    * No offline custom games
    Not Blizzard quality,

    Light have mercy on you Blizzard. Your betrayal has broken the fan's hearts. We would have purchased the game you promised us in a second and this is how you repay our loyalty?? Justice will be served!

    Absolutely disgusted with the clear false advertising of this game. I was excited as were many others to get to play this game in a completely updated way for the modern gaming era. What now appears to have happened is the bare minimum in terms of visual upgrades with updated models true (these apparently weren’t even done in house by blizzard) but all over overhauls left by the wayside.Absolutely disgusted with the clear false advertising of this game.

What now appears to have happened is the bare minimum in terms of visual upgrades with updated models true (these apparently weren’t even done in house by blizzard) but all over overhauls left by the wayside. Not only were the full cgi cutscenes that appeared to be promised not remade but the I game cutscenes have only had the models updated with no changed made to the overall direction (as was shown by blizzard). The clear disregard for people’s ability to a refund is also a joke, this is clearly not the same game we was all promised. Blizzard banning people’s accounts on the forums who are trying to help with refunds is also an absolute disgrace. I’m shocked at how far the company has fallen, I remember when I looked forward to Blizzard’s game announcements, but now I just think how little the company will actually deliver to what they tell us. I haven’t even mentioned the disregard for previous owners of wc3 and how they have been forced into this new infrastructure. Expand

    Where's my favourite Blizzard's "hand-painted" style like in Warcraft 3 Classic and WoW (models in Reforged look too realistic, game style is lost and there's no more this cartoony atmosphere in the game)?

    I only see a non-stylized high resolution textures without a soul and too detailed building models. Models of characters and animations look like developed for a cheap asian mobile

    I only see a non-stylized high resolution textures without a soul and too detailed building models. Models of characters and animations look like developed for a cheap asian mobile game, they look like plasticine.

    Where are shadows under trees where's ambient occlusion? Why trees and grass dont move because of wind? Why fog dont looks like volumetric object? Why a large majority of cut-scenes are static and there is no nothing happens with camera?

    Blizzard, take a look at Dota 2 it's how your Reforged should look in 2020: stylisation like in WoW ("hand-painted" colourfulness textures and hyperbolic models with no excessive details) + graphics based on new technologies (new advanced lightning system, light shafts, glow, shadows, fx-effects etc.).

    Do I need to explain you Blizzard about nuts and bolts of your own developed game stylization?

    I guess the game didn't developed by Blizzard. Old Warcraft 3 looks more better than Reforged (despite low poly models, low res. textures and outdated graphics engine) because of talented artists, game designers and modellers worked on classic game.

    It's easier to remake the game from scratch, following the canon of Blizzard's style than trying to patch the completely wrong game.

    It is the worst game ever made

    the game is a (poor) reskin that doesn't even have remotely close to all the working features of the original game, let alone the additional features that were promised. Also it runs poorly and probably can't hold 60 FPS in 2v2 even on state of the art hardware.

    UPD. Конченные уроды, инсталятор рефорджа также удаляет/обновляет обычный варкрафт 3 если он стоял в системе и поставить его назад нет никакой возможности. Таким образом старая игра официально полностью недоступна. Я желаю компании близзард улететь в трубу к чертовой матери за такой подход к игрокам. Уроды.

    Давний фанат варкрафта,
    Игру купил ожидая что графика будет улучшена и кастомки получат новую жизнь. Ничего из этого я не увидел. Модели стали детальнее, но из-за другой цветовой гаммы выглядят ужасно, а с новыми правилами касательно интеллектуальной собственности, где близзард имеют полные права на всё что сделано с помощью эдитора можно ожидать чего угодно.
    Одним словом я огорчен, ожидал что варкрафт получит новую жизнь, вместо этого получил официальное надгробие.

    It is not a "reforged" version of an old game. It's just the same product, maybe even worse, sold 30$.

    The game is chic, the company Blizzard great well done. The graphics were very good.
    Don 't listen to negative reviews, because they 're biased. All players were warned there would be no new story, it 's the same Warcraft 3, just very improved. Please don 't insult Blizzard, they 've done some crazy work. I am very happy. Excellent postscoring. Please, do not stop.

    Scummy Business practices, disabling Access to the original game (it does not matter if you bought the "remastered" game or not), not granting refunds and Missing Features make this probably the worst remaster in the history of gaming.

    My disappointment is such that I created an account on metacritic just to let the community knows:

    -No more battle.net platform as you used to know
    -No more ladder
    -No more profile with statistic
    -No more animated icon
    -20 fps with my gtx1080
    -buggy asf
    -units life bar as old as the game
    -minimap as old as the game
    -no reworked cutscenes (just the old one)

    The advertising done for this game included new cut scenes and features that are not even in the game. On top of that current features are removed and the only thing new are the major issues of bugs and difficulties in playing the game. This is not a nostalgia trip to the good old days but a slap across the face to remind you everything good you remembered does not exist anymore.

    I made a Metacritic account just to say that nobody should buy this game, it's a 30€ "remaster" with none of the new features promised, that a group of modders could have done better.
    The game has crashed multiple times for me, and is still full of bugs.
    STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME!

    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.
