    After hearing the news about how bad this game was I was trying to refund my purchase. I installed it but never ran it even once. I looked up how to refund the game and Blizzard is denying my refund. I am a long time Blizzard fan from the first Warcraft game. This is the final straw for me. Blizzard has tarnished its once great name.

    Warcraft 3 is amazing. Reforged doesn't improve on anything, adds lots of bugs and crashes, and removes features from the original game.

    They cut a lot of stuff from the OG, and just upscaled cutscenes, and f*up a lot of other stuf, also F U EULA now most of the fun CG's will die cus of it.

    Warcraft 3 defined my early teenage years, and after almost two decades of being a Blizzard fan I can't believe it's come to this. This lazy, half-baked, broken, outsourced, passionless remake of one of the greatest games of all time brings me nothing but immeasurable disappointment.

This lazy, half-baked, broken, outsourced, passionless remake of one of the greatest games of all time brings me nothing but immeasurable disappointment. Literally the only things they did right were add a filter for custom games and let you switch back to the original graphics. Features that aren't missing from TFT like auto tournaments, chat rooms, guilds, etc. are currently broken. To add insult to injury they broke the original TFT client and legacy battle.net. It launches the new far worse version of the game. Whatever name cache Blizzard had left should be dead and buried, it's all typical Activision shenanigans now. Expand

    I didn't even buy this game but its broken connectivity with my classic warcraft account. Blizzard, you were my favorite childhood developer...what happened to you to stray so far from your roots? With mess up after mess up after mess up...you've turned into my ex I hoped I'd never talk about.

    This was my first game ever as a 3-year old kid, and it was the game that got me interested in Warcraft and it’s lore for 14 years, and now seeing the game ruined and butchered in every single way, even deleting the old game that I grew up playing hurts my feeling a lot.

    I might as well throw in my two cents. I didn't even purchase Reforged, but the forced merging of the clients has effectively rendered my classic version useless. The amount of features gone are more than i care to count.

    Not only that, I'm experiencing getting a 30 GB or whatever download forced onto my hard drive, which according to rumors contains Reforged assets I can't even use as

    Or so I've been told. Yeah, that's not gonna work for me. How the critics can rate this complete and utter **** at 60-ish is beyond me.

    Probably the fastest I've refunded a game purchase, and one of the few games I've ever refunded. The amount of false advertising is phenomenal.

    Just a terrible remake of a game, there was some small updates to graphics and detail but overall removed the joy and customizing of what the original Warcraft 3 had.

    The worst "upgrade" ever made. In addition, they took away an old stable working client.

    Sinceramente un asco, estoy tan triste. Lo compre en la pre-venta tan hypeado y una mierda. Estoy tan deprimido, ni si quiera dan reembolso. Modelos casi animes estándar que ni siquiera los hizo Blizzard sino una compañía de malasia y nada más. Fatal, fatal. :(

    The biggest disappointment since that Peter Molyneux cube thing, biggest lie since "You'll Be Able To Find Other Players In No Man's Sky" and biggest breach of trust since the HK and Blitzchung. Its a new record. And its hard to beat Peter Molyneux at failing!

    A scam filled with lies and deceit to trick fans into buying. Blizzard should be fined millions for their tactics of lies and false promises to scam people.

    Sadly I am deeply disappointed with what they have done to this classic. I honestly shouldn’t be surprised though, even when it was announced through all my excitement I had a twinge of hesitation knowing how Blizz is not long a company that cares and puts effort in their game and has progressively gotten worse. That hesitation should have been fear. This game has turned out to be worseSadly I am deeply disappointed with what they have done to this classic. I honestly shouldn’t be surprised though, even when it was announced through all my excitement I had a twinge of hesitation knowing how Blizz is not long a company that cares and puts effort in their game and has progressively gotten worse. That hesitation should have been fear. This game has turned out to be worse than I could have imagined. WoW BFA is better and I absolutely hate what they did to the lore in that, but at least there was the idea they’re making new stuff up from scratch so something are gong to get messed up.

    They had the freaking game already completely made some 17 years ago, with a great story feeling feature complete. All anyone wanted was the game to be that but look a lot better with the cut scenes as showed off.

    What we got is a game from 17 some years ago with slightly upgraded graphics so it looks better but not in the ways that are important. You can zoom in and it’ll look great however you don’t play this game that way so it’s pointless.

    The cut scenes aren’t even close to what they showed off.

    And how do they cut out features from the original game and make it so you can only get them in the remaster?! And how are you missing features And animations in a the remaster that the original has?!

    This game is sadly one of laziness and should be passed on, and in the future all Blizz games should not be bought or preordered until it is proven to be worth the money. They have gotten to used to loyal fans just buying their stuff and need to remember that they have to actually put in the effort

    I didn't even buy Warcraft III: Reforged, but it's release still crippling my original Warcraft III. I want my Warcraft III rolled back to a patch that did NOT use the Reforged client. I don't care if that means dividing the online community.

    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.
