    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.

    Although I rarely give anything a zero score but it has to be the first time for something.

    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.

    I'd love to ask the Blizzard team, how much do they disrespect their previous amazing and old team members that created this amazing game, just to ruin it completely in a matter of time for nothing more than just MONEY.
    I played Warcraft 3 as a kid and loved it.
    Heard of Warcraft 3 Reforged and I was so hyped that I could fall in love with the game from my childhood once again.

    My entire friend group was excited for this for over a year only to get a unfinished mess that even ruined the classic game for those who didn't buy it.

    I'm not as mad as im disappointed :(

    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.

    No Blizzard just no we will not stand for this garbage! The gaming industry needs to wake up this is bot how you make a remake, if you want to learn how go on over to Capcom or Sqaure Enix and see what they're doing. They're making REAL GAMES, UNLIKE BLIZZARD!

    Big disappointment. Did not delivered what was promised and it is bug fest of a game. Barely anything has been improved. Same cutscenes, same UI and bad models animations. Just... What a mess.

    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.    … Expand

    I just created this account to review this. I won't repeat the problems what are already wrote down a bunch of times. I didn't make this account to join the Hate-Hype wagon, I did it because I care, about this game, about my childhood, and now I have to see what Blizzard did to my boy.... oh boy.... I can't describe how disappointed I am... I just want the old Blizzard back...

    Outsourcing? Really? On your flag-ship franchise?

    Why didn't Blizzard take the time to polish this. I can't believe even the score screens don't show any detail other than 3 metrics. No graphs, no time-breakdown for when resources/kills occurred. This is even the smallest complaint compared to what other people have already complained about in such great detail.

    I will never pre-order a blizzard product again.    … Expand

    it's fine that the new remake is bad, but why force us to play with and destroy the original? I don't want to download 20 gigs of extra files and forced to play this trash. I literally made an account to rate this garbage. blizzard is dead, gg.

    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.

    Nothing that was said and promised has been made. All false hope for the game itself, can't even request a refund. Played the beta never touched the live version of the game. I'm so utterly disappointed in Activision Blizzard atm.

    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.
