    This game is nowhere near finish. Endless bugs, FPS drops and lack of promised features killed a once iconic game...

    Still can't play the original wc3 TFT after 5days. Blizzard doing nothing, no response at all. Give us the old Blizzard back. Stop making **** only for profit, and start making games for games!

    How do you make a game according to Blizzard Activation?

    Fire most of the staff and hand bonuses to the CEOs.

    Such wasted potential.

    Dude, I loved the original, specially modding it with a map maker tool and retexturing it
    But I'm not gonna buy the reforged because I don't wanna make mods with the new Politics, Blizzard has ALL the rights of your maps and mods, they ain't gonna give you credit but tell everyone is made by them, and sell it as DLC, without giving you any kind of monetary compensation

    They are gonna edit the map without your permission and basically if you tell it on the forums, you are gonna get permanently banned and sued, telling the creator to delete every single kind of social media he has.
    They are gonna ban any kind of support for the original creator, like Patrons and Kofee, not gonna let the creator EVEN WORK FOR THEM, EVEN IF THEY ARE TAKING THEIR MODS WITHOUT PERMISSION.
    I know they ain't gonna let us do mods with copyrighted content, like the old DBZ mods or Pokewar, but they haven't used to be a problem, because they never made it to Workshop but ModDB or Nexus or other pages
    I also have seen fake spam accounts from Blizzard employees throwing **** and hate messages to old community-knowledged modders, the real famous ones
    One of them had to delete any kind of social media AND EVEN HIS BUSSINESS MAIL, but at least, he has been seen very active in a game with a lot of modding content and even official support for modders, giving them a sort of monetary compensation, I think the game is called Ravenfield

    TL:DR - Blizzard is gonna take your work away without any kind of permission and **** with your modder life

    Edit: Also they ain't gonna let you update the mod, let's say that WC3R has been updated and the mod is not compatible with the new version, they ain't gonna let you update it, instead, they are. Gonna. LITERALLY. DELETE. THAT. MOD. Is gone!

    Please, if you are a Modder, DONT MAKE MODS FOR THIS GAME
    Instead, go help the modding community of Ravenfield, M&B Warband or GTA, you're always welcome!    … Expand

    Ни за что не покупайте данную игру, это просто плевок в душу фанатам.
    Сожалею, что сделал предзаказ сразу же после анонса, теперь не смогу вернуть деньги.

    This game is a joke. Not only did they not deliver what they promised all the time, I cannot even go back to playing the original Warcraft III. I'm done with Blizzard. I should've been earlier, when they showed their real face in the lights of the Blitzchung disqualification, but now I'm sick of it enough.

    Pure garbage.... reskinned models and cutscenes reduced to nothing, old or just flat out missing. Save you money. Blizzard has been garbage since Activision bought it.

    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

    This game is a total shame, full of bugs, in addition to the horrible decisions that blizzard made to delete the old warcraft and also to want to take the copyright of all mods, a disrespect to its consumers.

    I really don't understand how they made a remaster with less things than the 17 year old game their remastering.
    Side note they patched the 17 year old game to be as **** as this "remaster".
    Side note #2 I can no longer play the 17 year old game I own, thank you Blizzard very cool.

    Never ever pre purchase a game from Blizzard. I haven't thought that would happen to me. And if they will not refund it i will cancel other purchasing and never ever consider purchase from them anymore.

    I almost wonder if Activision forced blizzard to publish this before it was ready. It really is a shame. At the rate Activision/Blizzard is going we could see the end of an iconic company in the next few years.

    Buggy, worse than original, lied to in advertising, and just a massive, massive slap in the face to consumers.

    Well here you go, this is what happens when you rush a product. You can't even call the game completed. And you manage to **** people over who just want to play classic.

    I got banned for refund also. I can’t post my true feelings because metacritic will not allow it, in blizzards pocket. I’d rather get the coronavirus then play another blizzard game again.

    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.
