    Blizzard she be ashamed of this. They hire out a 3rd party studio to “polish” what was an incredible game in its time… and make it unplayable. Then they say they will fix it and 2 years later it’s worse than it started.
    Blizzard died when Activision bought them out and the entire staff quit. They only care about cheap cash grabs now.

    I bought Warcraft 3 Reforged solely for the campaign. I played through the original campaign some 20 years ago when it was first released and wanted to re-experience it. The campaign is fun and the updated graphics were nice, but it was very, very buggy. The entire game kept crashing what felt like every other mission, and I needed to continuously "save" my progress every couple minutes inI bought Warcraft 3 Reforged solely for the campaign.

    Wracraft III: Refunded is probably the best way to describe this title. Fake promises and in the end the graphics is just weirdly ugly, weird UI. They broken what was good and didnt fix what needed a fix.

    Blizzard should be ashamed of that "remake". So sad to see that all they care about now is money... And the best part is that my refund request have been denied... Good job, guys! #cashgrab

    False advertising, promised features are not in game. There is no new cutscenes and the stratholme cutscene shown on the website, as well as in other promo materials doesn't exist.

Game barely works, (i can't currently get past 4th mission in human campaign, whenever i start the campaign, the mission just fails instantly).

    New models look cool, but the animations are horrible. The game works in 60fps, but the units move in 30fps or even less and there is stuttering as they move. Blizzard also removed multiple animations from multiple units, so for example when in original, an unit had two or three different attack animations, now they only have one single swing.

    Not enough they released unfinished product that's in the worse state than beta. They also managed to run the original game by merging the two games on all players. Therefore now people who don't even own reforged, will have their original game modified with reforged files, which means they will also lose animations etc from the original game they bought 18 years ago.

    This is the biggest scam in the gaming history, it's worse than Fallout 76.
    Do not buy this game, you have been warned.

    Lost for words.

All interest in this remaster or remake, I don't even know what it's supposed to be, was lost when I saw screenshots, which in my opinion looked bland/washed out compared to the original. No loss for me, I'd just be able to continue playing the original version, or so I thought.

    Release day comes out of the blue (I hadn't followed Reforge's development as it was off my radar entirely) the week I (and a mate) planned to revisit this game again and the day before I chose to install it again, I was miffed out at the ridiculous bloat (26gb) for such an old game but whatever, fine, finish the download and launch the game to see this stuttery opening cinematic, okay this ain't right, click start a new campaign to see what else has been changed which was followed by another stuttery mess of a cinematic, which I skipped and was now in-game. The game now completely freezes every 20 seconds or so and my units teleport when the +-1 second freeze subsides (my PC is capable of running the latest games at 2k resolution perfectly for reference so it's not a hardware issue, why I felt it necessary to disclose this for an ancient game, I'm not really sure). Reading through other posts, I see that plenty of other forced changes have made their way into this game which I STRONGLY disagree with.

    My luck that this update drops the week an old mate of mine and I were planning on revisiting WC 3, as we were going through old RTS games we played together back in the day. I'm giving this a 0 because I never asked for this, I didn't expect this to merge with the original game I paid for almost 20 years ago, rendering my legal copy I've had since I were a kid (Nearly 30 now) completely useless to me. I've seen a lot of bull in this industry but this is one of the most unethical/painful things I've witnessed from it yet, so I created this account to express my discontent with Blizzard and Activision, the former being one of my childhood heroes.

    I pray that they make the original version stand-alone, like it should be and for people that bought Reforged, I hope that they iron out all the issues you're having too. Disgusting.    … 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.
