    Blizzard, you used to be a game developer who made wonderful and thought out games planned out intricately for the community on way less of a budget then now. Your games launched messy but at least they were quickly fixed. You couldn't get a re-skin right? This game is a buggy mess of lazy programming, misleading from its actual product.

Your games launched messy but at least they were quickly fixed. You couldn't get a re-skin right? This game is a buggy mess of lazy programming, misleading from its actual product. It serves as an example that people only grow more and more aggravated from this practice. This, along with the refusal to many refunds, gives us a good idea of what you become. If ANY blizzard staff are reading this, you should not be proud of this game. This was a failure in all counts, including the profit you so much sought out. Expand

    Reforged saved my life. It taught me everything. I was depressed, drank too much, didn't have a job, in and out of rehab, my wife left me and even took our dog fred . I thought i hit rock bottom. I didn't think anything could be worse. Then I played Reforged.

    Reforged saved my life. It taught me everything. I was depressed, drank too much, didn't have a job, in and out of rehab, my wife left me and even took our dog fred . I thought i hit rock bottom. I didn't think anything could be worse. Then I played Reforged.

    I realized what rock bottom truly looked like, and man, it just scared me... Was this really the route I was going to go in my life. I sat back, thought, and then I decided. I decided right then and there, that no, this was NOT going to be my life.

    Since the release, I've gone back to college, I have a great job, my wife and Fred is back home, I'm not drinking, life is just great. It's all thanks to Reforged for steering me back on the right path. For that, I'll never be able to thank you enough. All I can do for now is give you a zero, because if you weren't a zero, you never would have been my hero

    PS: my wife is pregnant.........it's a BOY!!!!

    It seems that kiddie-diddling on the Lolita Express does not lead to good game design. Mr. Kotick should resign and keep his hands away from our Children and Intellectual Property

    False advertising.
    Cancerous anti-creative terms of use.
    Disappointing delivery.
    Refusing to grant refunds.
    Banning people for helping others to get their refunds.

    This is so Activision that it hurts to see. But Blizzard...
    You were wizards back in the day. You made legendary games. You made such epic experiences.
    Look how far you've fallen under Activision's BS.

    This is the textbook definition of false advertising, and what makes it worse is that its still being false advertised 3 days after released..... 4 hours of reforged cinematics? more like 2 minutes and a stale fight scene AT THE END OF THE GAME.

Everything else is the same RTS still camera shots as they were 15+ years ago. If this was a standalone game just coming to market then the bugs and poor performance from everything from the gameplay to the damn main menu.... Abysmal. They are giving us a mega-microtransaction and selling it as a massively new and improved game. Blizzard you have become the very thing you strived not to be. Reflect on this failure as you lose more and more credibility. The WoW community has been complaining about your poor decisions for years and you've slowly spread those poor decisions throughout the rest of your IPs. Now we are back where we started. YOU'VE CORRUPTED EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR ONCE GREAT COMPANY FOR CORPORATE GREED. Disgusting. "No king rules forever, only greed* is eternal' - Yogg Soron. Quite a fitting ending to a once great company.

To make matters worse, Blizzcon 2018 was just a big fat lie. So many of the features they showcased is nowhere to be found in the release according to various sources on the internet. My general anger is in Activision and how their greed has spread rot and decay inside of Blizzard, destroying the games and community we used to love. This is a problem which affect all of Blizzards titles where they releases as half-complete, content-poor disappointments for full price. I used to worship blizzard since 9 years back, and now it feels tedious to even start their blizzard launcher since their games feels sad and boring. Expand

    Blizzard you have turned into a disgrace and a joke in the industry. You should be ashamed of yourselves. You are nothing but a bunch of disconnected, money-hungry suits that no longer cares about the players of your games. You've turned your backs on the dedicated fans that have been playing your games for over a decade. Despicable.

    This really is upsetting, This game should be pulled from sale and put back in development for at least another year to deliver on the promises that got people to pre-order this **** to begin with.
    not having re worked Cinematics completely deflated me, however Blizzard never stated that they would be remade so i guess that's fine.
    However whats not fine is the promised hours of remade

    not having re worked Cinematics completely deflated me, however Blizzard never stated that they would be remade so i guess that's fine.
    However whats not fine is the promised hours of remade in game cut-scenes, like the ones shown at Blizzcon of The Culling of Strathholm (which is still being used as part of the marketing to this day), but they decided to backtrack on that promise and not tell anyone.
    The animation cut-scene of the Arthas and Illidan fight is laughable, such stiff animations and models that look like toys,..............honestly this entire situation Pisses me off to No End.

    Warcraft 3 is without question one of the greats and influential games ever made and is one of (if not THE) Flag ship game and The release of REFORGED (REFUNDED).........just makes it seem like they didn't give a **** about it...................sad sad times............

    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.
