    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. How can you remaster a game almost two DECADES later and somehow make it worse?
    I had high hopes for this remaster and I... honestly didnt even believe it was possible to screw up it so bad. (that arthas versus illidan cutscene made me cringe so hard)

    Set up an account just because of this game. Great character models, absolutely terrible everything else; Blizzard what on Earth were you thinking? Very disappointing.

    No cinematic cutscenes. Broken promises. No custom maps. And the list goes on.

    So much for Diablo 4

    Somewhat rushed and lackluster remaster, but not as bad as trolls would have you believe. Despite missed opportunities where terrain graphics, fps, ui, animations and battle sound effects... are concerned, still a welcome and much needed visual overhaul to the original. Hopefully future updates will fix some of the current issues.

    How do you take a complete game with the intent to remaster but you remove many many features. Everything that was promised that would be added like story, cut scenes are all nowhere to be found. The game has bugs out the wazoo and to top it all off YOU F$#&ED UP THE ORIGINAL GAME BT DOING THIS. Top 5 game if my entire life I'm not sure I can even go back and enjoy it anymore.

    After all the delays, one would have expected that Blizzard would at least take the time to polish it but in the end, Blizzard essentially sold this game with a fraudulent marketing campaign and did not deliver content that was advertised. Combine this with anti-consumer practices when it comes to custom maps, this game is a hard no-buy.

    Didnt get the update it deserved and actually subtracts from the original. The character models are nice, but nearly everything else is just odd looking. Plus with the way blactivision has decided to handle custom maps I'm not expecting anything super cool to pop up like with the old warcraft 3. Cant even make any anime custom games due to their new policies.

    I seem to be missing a large selection of content that was promised and unable to find it... Lag spikes are terrible and tbh playing the original feels more enjoyable but now the multiplayer is empty... Thanks Blizzard for nothing.

    I played Warcraft 3 as a child, and though Reforged has appealing aesthetics, it disappoints in almost every other way. Blizzard launched Reforged rife with bugs and rendered classic WC3 - that I had already paid for separately - inaccessible. Campaigns regularly swap to instant defeat. The Beta worked better than the launch client.

    Blizzard did not keep their promises. Unfinished game, and knowingly released it. People are rightfully mad.

    It’s insane as to why they would release the game in its current state. They removed support for the old game, which can no longer be played online. They didn’t deliver on any of the features they promised.

    Esto es un insulto a los fans, una estafa en todas sus palabras. Lo peor de todo es que el foco de consumidores para este juego va a la nostalgia y la fidelidad de los fans, y el resultado ha sido tan decepcionante, que no puedo mas que sentirme estafado.

    I've played WC3 in the past, a bunch of nostalgia when I bought it again 1 week ago. If it was like a patch to the original game, I mean, a gift, it would be OK. But I spent money for something that I thought it would be very different, and Blizzard showed up something very different at Blizzcon. The game is pretty the same, with minor changes.

    I didn’t jump on the preorder bandwagon and I’m glad I didn’t after reading and watching reviews online. This game deserved better. A game that defined a genre and this is the remaster we waited 2 years for?

    It's inferior in many ways. But... blizzard BANS people who help others to get refunds? Wow, that is really low. No wonder it has 0.6 score. Don't tell me that they didn't had enough time or money to make a proper remaster of this game.

    Newer seen remaster that is so much worse than original, even base game seems broken now. Many bugs in unit movement, path finding, sound glitches, graphic glitches, constant crashes etc. Memories of great game of 2003 are completely overwritten by this abomination. Worst thing is claisc game also is gone. Blizzard is gone as good game developers.

    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.
