    Absolutely disgusted about what they have done, I didn't mind the new reforged version (for the most part) however being unable to use the old client and all maps belonging to Blizzard, losing 100's of hours of work, that's insane.

    I cannot believe how trash this game is and how blizzard could back stab its own loyal fan base. Graphics so terrible, there is literally no anti aliasing. The classic graphics were downgraded very much as well. Even worse the original game is gone! Shame on you blizzard.

    It's a worse version of the original game in almost every way. New graphics look terribly out of place, the game has lost much of it's charm. And that's about all the new things you get. Everything else was either not delivered as promised, or even removed from the original game. If you want to play a worse game than the original, I suppose you found the right game.

    The lies from blizzard, even just the supposed 4 hour cinematics thing, it's just too much. The company is disgusting and this game is a pillar of their filth.

    Nothing but lies. They lied about the features and then they lied about why they cut them. Blaming the fans for their "expectations" is a trash tier move blizzard.

    Way to continue garbage releases. Can't blame the studio contracted to make this, this pile of Blizzard slurry is all theirs to own up for.

    This was an absolute cash-grab from a degenerated, previously famous game producer.

    It's unplayable because of bugs and crashes. The graphics are just plastic and ugly. The character portraits look like the characters got heavily sedated and can barely move their face. The style was very poorly chosen. Everything is exaggerated making characters look like caricatures (example:    This was an absolute cash-grab from a degenerated, previously famous game producer.

    The style was very poorly chosen. Everything is exaggerated making characters look like caricatures (example: character wielding a hammer almost as big as him). It looks like a joke.

    Blizzard lied about what this will contain. No improved cinematic cut-scenes, no extra gameplay elements, no nothing. It was all a lie.

    The campaigns are now so easy you can easily beat them while semi-afk. It's like... what's the point of it all if it's so easy?

    Everything you now make (with your own ideas and hard work) in the wc3 engine is Blizzard's. This will prevent any good games ever being made again in wc3's custom game engine. If someone is confident that the stuff they make is good they won't put it in wc3 anymore.

    Also, you can no longer make custom game involving other franchises (if I want to make a Dragon Ball Z custom game for example.... well, It will be removed, no matter how good and fun it is).

    and, WORST OF ALL

    They ruined the original game, the one I bought in 2006.
    The amazing, original game lobby and b.net are gone. No more ladders, no more clan/race/etc channels, no more nothing.

    and this is only the tip of the iceberg, tons of more problems exist.

    I cannot even begin to fathom the mindset behind the entire dev team on days before and the day of releasing this product to consumers. In no way shape or form was this more than but an alpha test riddled with bugs and horrible decisions. I cannot recommend this not for a VERY long time.

    - Lots of old features missing

    Honestly, I didn't pre order the game, I bought it on release day and played through the campaign entirely at 4k res max settings, I have an RTX 2080 ti. I enjoyed my playthrough entirely and had smooth performance without any bugs nor did i see any reviews and formed my own opinion of the game. Its still WC3 I loved years ago but prettier.

    I didn't pay 40 dollars to be a QA tester for a 17 year old game. It's unthinkable that this could come out in such a broken state, and promising "future" updates is unacceptable.

    Wow, the backlash is something else. I must say, all of you guys who fanboy rage this game to the ground are something else.

    Let me start off by saying Blizz indeed made promises they didn't keep, and they should be ashamed of it. There is no excuse to remove many promised features from a highly anticipated game, and communicatie poorly about it. BUT I also have to say you guys are    Wow, the backlash is something else.

    BUT I also have to say you guys are severely overreacting. Why does giving a 0 give you guys so much pleasure? I really don't understand.

    The units and textures have been polished, and actually do look very good. The gameplay still stands, and to this day is still one of the best RTS experiences you can have on any platform.

    I cannot give the game a positive score, but I won't follow the blind fanboy rage and give it a 0 either. The problem with Metacritic score is you only dish out 0 and 10. Just look at the game for wat it is, a good revisitation of a classic game, which doesn't hold up to the promises made by the publisher.

    4/10 for the things that are good about it: story, campaign, graphical polish on units/buildings/tiles. Negative because of the lack in features and withheld promises.    … Expand

    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.
