    75% of the promised content is not delivered, the game runs worse than it's predecessor, the cutscenes they have shown prior to release are not in the game at all and the reforging both removed a bunch of features from the old client as well as KILL the old client entirely. Even if I get my game refunded, I can't play the orignal game I paid for.

    Old Blizzard is dead. Activision killed them.
    Don't buy unfinished, money-grabbing and falsely advertised crap.
    Let these Companies kill themselves. New and better Studios will take their place.
    These Money wh***s are disgusting

It really looks like an half assed mobile game, it's a remaster not a remake as they claimed. Not only did they release this poor excuse for a game, they releases a huge patch for warcraft 3 which removes/brakes tons of features and gamemodes. Other maps and gamemodes were banned due to copyright issues, this should not be a problem to begin with since we are talking about user made content. It wouldn't surprise me to discover that this happened due to the stake holders having business with the copyright holders referenced in that content. I would give it a 2 but at this point I'll give it a 0 for their poor treatment of their customers. If you want to do a good thing for the games industry don't support such a company.    … Expand

    Es ist unglaublich!
    Ich spiele seit vielen Jahren gelegentlich fun maps in wc3.
    Nun werde ich zu einem Zwangs downgrade gezwungen.

    Wow what a horrible remaster. My first 15 minutes consisted of not being able to play the prologue (mission would fail after pressing start) so I had to skip to the first campaign. Noticed the control scheme was the default arrow keys/move cursor to edge to move view. No problem, I'll just go reset my keybinds to WASD like I do for all RTS games I play...

    Nope. There is no option to rebind keys in the menu. You have to go into a text file in the game's folder and manually edit what keys you'd like to do. A game released in 2020 that is charging you $30 could not have added a simple keybind change option in the menus? A future game dev in their first year of schooling would be able to accomplish that feat.

    Blizzard is showing their true colors again here by putting in 0 effort to the content they produce and hoping everyone still plays along because of the nostalgia they have for this once great company. No one should be supporting this type of shoddy game development.    … Expand

    - Nothing new
    - False advertising
    - They own whatever you create
    - Shady tactics
    - Quick cash grab
    - Less features (No clans/ tournaments etc.)
    - Banning people who ask for refunds

    So essentially the same game, less features and they own your creations - For more money. What the actual ****

    Very disappointed with the release of the game. It is a real fraud. Thousands of people have made a pre-order of the game thinking it would be old' good game but with a cool breeze. But on the release date, we got the real crap...

    Absolute disgraceful turd from Blizzard. Shows top management doesn't give a crap, and project leader level is incompetent.
    The game is barely a bit better graphically, but is so poorly optimized that it ends up feeling worse than on the original version. It looks nothing like the pictures they showed.
    Custom games can't use any other IP anymore, so bye bye all cool LotR or    Absolute disgraceful turd from Blizzard. Shows top management doesn't give a crap, and project leader level is incompetent.

    If mgmt. still cared, they would publish an apology and commit to delivering a new, truly upgraded version for free in the next year or so.

    We were lied to. The trailer in the game's website has nothing to do with what you actually gets. It also removed several features the classic version had and did not include almost all of the features originally announced, some of which are still being advertised on its web page.

    i have owned warcraft 3 reign of chaos and the frozen throne for almost two decades and i cant play it with their features anymore and i have to put up with bugs they intruduced in reforged. I will not pay for reforged and i want to play wc3 the way it always has been. Pull it off from fron current Bnet. Bring it back to wgere it was.

    What a mess of a game, just to NAME A FEW: no competitive ladder, no proper multiplayer matchmaking, bugs, removal of features which were once in the original game, horrble UI full of bugs, no single player custom games, constant dropouts in multiplayer games, HD reskins don't match unit animation... etc etc and more!

    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.
