    I was so hyped for this... growing up with the Warcraft franchise and playing Wc3 for hours upon hours, this release is all but a total let down.

    What an absolute fail by Blizzard. They continue to falsely advertise the game with the promise of remastered cutscenes that don't even exist. This edition somehow manages to be a DOWNGRADE of an 18 year old game. Custom campaigns, clans, and arranged teams have all been removed. There is also a new EULA that is highly restrictive towards custom maps. The worst part is that BlizzardWhat an absolute fail by Blizzard.

    What a horrible waste of everyone’s time. So much promised and nothing actually done. It really feels like they just had a guy sitting around for a year and then went oh crap we were suppose to launch that! Just go ahead and launch what ever we have. Don’t waste your money blizzard is dead!

    I made an account to say that I grew up with this game and was excited for Reforged and Blizzard up and ruined NOT ONLY Reforged but the regular, old 2002/2003 TFT version...

    After the **** they pulled with that Hearthstone tourney, I decided I was done buying Blizzard products. Didn't think I'd find myself refunding the last thing I ever bought from them. Goes to show you shouldn't preorder.

    Blizzard is salty about Dota 2. They don't want anyone to be able to put in work and get rewarded for their creativity in the future.

    Rather than fixing bugs, they kept adding new bugs with each new patch. Now the game is much more unstable. Custom maps that used to run fine now desync and crash more frequently. Their lack of QA is just so sad

    Broke the original while Activision-Blizzard collect money for literally nothing. After supporting blizzard for 16 years I'm done. I own every game they have pushed out, and atleast I had fun while they were fun. This company isn't trust worthy and hasn't been in a while.

    So, you're paying 30 dls for a downgraded graphics mod? huh...
    No music renovation, same cutscenes and cinematics, just a buggy unfinished game

    I have grew up with the old classic game. They announced this during Blizzcon 2018 and man I was so dam happy ! It was the closes thing to a Warcraft 4 which was what I really wanted. But when game finally launched, it was a complete dumpster on fire. Full of bugs, unfinished, what was promised during Blizzcon panel was not delivered, all just lies and disappointment.

Now since the world editor EULA was updated, all customs maps and game mods or any type of modifications is the intellectual property of Blizzard ! Custom games were the reason the old classic game still had players after so many years ! Apart from that they also ruined the old classic game by making it use the same systems as the Reforged. Jesus Christ who would though after 17 years your game would be suddenly ruined ! **** you Activision Blizzard ! I hope more people start leaving this degenerate and perverted company !… Expand

    TL;DR: If I can just play WC3 online without the fresh paint I'll just do that instead of pay $30ish for a texture pack.

    Nothing like the demo at Blizzcon nor the promise for minor WoW related changes to the story, no new missions, no new voice actors, no new UI or Option to turn on/off any " no new anything outside of Dalaran so far and oneb(?!?) new cinimatic I've seen at the start.

    This feels like lies to get me to buy a game I already own and can play online.

    (I don't care about competitive play. Custom games seem scrapped. Pathfinding is still bad, I was looking forward to the cleaner UI) I was looking forward to a real revamp, not just some skins. I can't bring myself to even finish the game.    … Expand

    I was a huge Warcraft 3 fan back in the days. I couldn't stop playing it. When custom maps appeared like TDs or Dota it was amazing for all the players. I literally made an account just so i can say how bad Wacraft 3 reforged actually is.

    First of all let's start with how the Blizzard trailer was shown in 2018..it was awesome. Look at the finished product and you are thinking..is this game actually released in 2020?
    Somehow i knew that the cinematic would not reflect how the game looks, because Blizzard always know how to make exceptional cinematics, but the end result is really bad in my opinion. Are you serious that this is Arthas here? He surely doesn't look like it.

    Second, what is up with the story? You are telling me that 18 years later, the story is worse than the original?

    And don't get me started with the custom maps nonsense that Blizzard added in the EULA.
    What Blizzard is saying is that, every work that somebody puts in to create awesome maps and mods for the community, that belongs to Blizzard? Forever?
    Hey, it's nice to have developers that you don't pay right? Nice thinking there Activision. How about you fire all your employees and start making games for free by using random people online.
    GREAT THINKING FOR THE COMMUNITY BLIZZARD, MY APPLAUSE, YOU REALLY SHOWED YOUR TRUE COLORS WITH THIS ONE.

    I have never refunded a game in my life, but this is my first one.

    With all the mistakes you have done Blizzard, you have lost a fan forever. Good luck    … Expand

    seventeen years on the same account. This is trash. Give us back warcraft 3. It pains me to not endorse this game that I have loved for so long. I hoped for many years this game would see a revival but this is not it. Absolute abysmal failure at best and complete theft at worst.

    Since Blzizard is deleting unfavorable comments and dislieks on its youtube channel I felt compelled to create and account on metacritic to properly review this game. After all the hype lasting for soem 2 years we are served unfinished product with merely replaced textures for 30 USD, that's a joke. It deserves -10 not even a 0. Shame on you activision.

    Misleading advertisment, i played the classic version and bought warcraft 3 reforged a few days ago. Reforged is missing a lot of the advertised and classic features, not sure how it is possible to have less game mechanics than the classic game. Also people who own the classic game are now forced to use the reforged version.

    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.
