    This truly was an apalling experience. To think that Blizzard would churn this behemoth of a turd through Battlenet is almost unreal.
    I wish I could say this reforged version was cancer, but at least cancer gets the job done.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ужасный релиз. Обещанный Reforged превратился на релизе в весьма посредственный Remastered. Кампания не переделана, озвучка испорчена, присутствует значительное количество багов, функциональность меню настроек так и осталась на уровне 2002 года, визуальная составляющая противоречива -- ухудшились узнаваемость юнитов и эффекты заклинаний, а у картоделов отняли стимул относиться к своим творениям так же старательно. Не вижу смысла рассматривать релиз как полноценную игру, поэтому буду сравнивать с оригиналом, при этом исходя из первоначальных обещаний близзард (ценник же не упал, а сохранился, значит, предполагается, что изначально заявленный продукт стоил бы столько же, сколько стоит этот сырой релиз). А сравнение с оригиналом дает провал по всем пунктам. Ни по одному показателю близзардам не удалось превзойти оригинальную игру. Наоборот, мы видим, что по всем позициям, кроме графики, качество игры резко упало. Это совершенно лицемерное отношение к сообществу и фанатской базе игры. 1 балл.… Expand

    The game was one of the things that was hyped to be the saviour of the RTS-genre.

However, as can be seen, the game pretty much fails at even tying it's shoelaces before it stumbles out the door straight into a dog **** in front of all the other kids waiting for you to get into the Magic School Bus.
    It's like the little brother looking at it's elder sibling's achievements and using said achievements to garner a reputation among the friends of the family but everyone realizes the whole schtick of the little tyke is akin to a fungus taking over the mind of an ant and ending a mockery of the being it once was.

    This extends to a lot of things, mostly the gameplay. The gameplay has mostly been kept in the same state it always was, no need to stray from the formula on that front. That being said, there's been tons of things that were unsalvageable during the delivery of this miscarriage of a game, mainly being various previous features being cut like clans, automated tournaments, chat room commands are broken, host bots got snapped, many servers were killed off and filtering regions is now a no-show. The game also crashes several times and various matchmaking issues
    exist, such as NO LADDER SUPPORT. No ladder support on a game that was popular because of that very thing, alongside custom maps that are now practically owned by Blizzard rather than you, and Blizzard gets to take all the credit too.

    The menus are very haphazard and unoptimized compared to the original, the free time HTML project of Chromium extended into an entire game menu rather than the placeholder experimental platform that it most likely originally represented. In the original the menus were very quick to do what they were supposed to do except in the rare instances where the game had to load a bunch of map info like in custom game selection or custom campaigns (WHICH REFORGED LACKS SUPPORT FOR!) while Reforged takes a second after pressing a button to even start moving, like you're connecting to a new website with every button press.
    Speaking of new, the game's changes to the storyline and cinematics, while not significant overall, very much annoyed an old-timer like me. It's not that I did not want any changes, far from it, the stuff they showed at Blizzcon in 2018 were brilliant looking and I very much enjoyed the new Arthas VS Illidan cinematic (I know there are some who didn't like it and I agree in some parts, it felt rather slow at points). It's just the changes that were made were so arbitrary and senseless as to seem like they were made just to be hip with the kids, not to mention help drive toy sales because MARKETING! And then there's stuff like Grommash Hellscream's name, originally being shortened to Grom by everyone except Mannoroth, being replaced in the audio files with a very abrupt "Hellscream" rather than the original line being left alone or maybe having his full name used occasionally. Get off his case dammit, the guy already doomed his entire race and owns up to it by the end of the original Reign of Chaos campaign, dropping his favourite nickname is like CJ getting called a busta. Especially by the one he calls "little brother". And to further elaborate on the abrupt part earlier, the voice lines were very visibly changed, as if it was a 5 minute hackjob in Audacity by the new intern with the buck tooth. At least Grom looks better than ever, which brings up my next point.

    The models, ironically the part that Blizzard did not make, were (And are) the strongest point of the release in the first place. However, even those are lacking in various areas, like previous attack animations either not correctly made or just missing entirely. In some areas they were not even utilized at all despite existing in the World Editor, it's like they ran out of time. What the **** were Blizzard doing the entire time, having a mini golf contest using solid gold golf-balls provided so generously by Daddy Activision while the sweatshop workers of Lemon Sky Studios got whipped in the building 5 blocks over so as to not ruin the view of the corporate overlords?

    Speaking of Activision, the PR surrounding the game has been absolutely awful, thanks in no small part to the decision to fire 800+ employees, most of them being from the PR department, so they've pretty much ended up saying what is exactly on the minds of the higher-ups about any setbacks. In the end, any positives Reforged has exist mainly because of the original, which now no longer exists due to the mandatory merged clients. Todd Howard, you're a bad man for making the "Broke Launch, Fix Later" culture that seems to be a constant in today's entertainment media. Oh and Kotick? your corporate wank dollars are in the mailbox, please report to the shareholders meeting in 30 minutes. And yes, you're still obligated to wear the latex suit, ball gag and collar, you know how they like that.    … Expand

    Лаги начинаются в главном меню. Вылеты из аккаунта бателнета каждые 30 секунд. Интерфейс не растягивается на весь экран, ощущение что был сделан для квадратных мониторов (4:3). Игра не поддерживает широкие мониторы и это в 2020 году. Анимация сделана ужасно как и новая озвучка. Не кому не рекомендую покупать это.    Очень некачественный за 1299 рублей.

    Not only does the new graphics look significantly worse and make it harder to make out what is happening they also somehow managed to break the old game. So even if you do not buy this game you will still suffer from it as they removed the old BNet and force you to merge your old installation of Warcraft 3 with the new Reforged version.

Then there is the refund problem. People were banned for helping others to get refunds for this game (It should be mentioned that Blizzard gave another explanation) and try to make refunding as hard as possible. Again look this up for yourself. They latter back-pedalled but it was to late. This is already the lowest rated game on Metacritic. Blizzard please don't become the next EA.

    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.
