    It is with great reluctance that I have agreed to this calling.

    I love democracy. I love the Republic. The power you give me I will lay down when this crisis has abated.

    Please Blizzard, remember who you are. We need you to make this game as it deserves to be done as well, with all the dedication and investment! Please, remake this game again!

    This is an absolute disgrace and disaster. Not only does it not have the features that were (and still ARE!) promised on their official website, such as reworked cutscenes (that Blizzcon "Culling of Stratholme" trailer? A complete lie) or UI (the UI is the same as the old version), it also has less features overall than the classic version had on launch!

And if you happen to own the classic verison, if forcibly downgrades to Reforged (with Reforged's graphics being behind the paywall). Not only that, the game is also buggy, poorly balanced, the graphics are downgraded from the trailers (and they weren't exactly mind-blowing there either) and from the classic version as well! And even if you try the classic graphics mode, it still looks worse than the actual Warcraft 3 classic client!

    Blizzard, you had ONE job: give one of the best games of all time a fresh new coat of paint. Instead the only thing you painted is a target on your backs.

    Horrible game, not even in 2003 could you get this bad. Hilarious how they even failed to make a reskin of an old game but not competent enough to create features we had back 17 years ago! This company went from being the best to being trash in no time. The hilarious part is they are banning people for asking refund for the game or helping others getting refunds.

    A generous 1/10.... you spend £25+ for pretty much just upgraded models...
    On the official website the promotional video for the game that features rich story telling, new camera angles for in game cinematics etc.. You get NONE OF IT. Literally just a re-skin. the hole new 4 mins of new cinematics are so bad, the animations are just funny to watch not fluid at all.

    What a disappointment. This was purely a cash grab. They've also doubled down updating their policy claiming rights to every map you make and banning anything they deem to be copyright material. No more fan maps for tv shows and games. Their new model is to steal game ideas from aspiring children and game developers.

    The whole game is just a blanket covering the major terms and policies rewriting trying to scam players. Old bugs from original W3, bunch of new bugs, broken balanse, unfuffiled promises and almost non-existent re-texture - that's all you gonna find here. They even removed national localisation's voice acting. So in fact, this "reforged" version offers you less than original game.

    Blizzard stop doing it. Please do not! You broke my childhood. And even worse, because of the "new" game, you broke the old one. I am a member of the ru community. And what you did with the voice acting in the game is awful!

    Blizzard deployed the Hollywood set-pieces at blizzcon in 2018 to make the fans think that the blizzcon could be worse, then they proved them wrong retroactively by removing the set.

    Blizzard raped my childhood. Such a disappointing remake. Seriously, a remake after 15 years without changing the engine, 0 improvements on graphics other than resolution(and some models are just ugly as hell).

    I think everything has been said before me about this game. My score is based on the fact, that I can't even play the game on my high end gaming rig, because it is lagging constantly (5-10 FPS).
    Update: I modify my score from 2 to 4, because they gave me a refund.

    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.
