    They completely abandonned it... Blizzard became the most corrupted and greedy company.

    A horror. You destroyed my childhood game. Outsourcing the game entirely to an Indonesian company is a shame. Everything is ugly, full of bugs. A massacre.

    Where to begin... The ToS was updated to claim ownership of any custom content that is developed via the WC3 Creator tool - this was an anti-community change to prevent another DOTA from happening and created an already contentious relationship with the custom developers. On top of this, the actual release removed pretty much all essential online tools for community building.Where to begin...

    Performance of the game was absolutely shocking, even on a rig that boasts a 3090 the FPS was less than desirable, apparently it can be fixed with some internal tweaking of the ini files but this shouldn't be required from an AAA studio. I understand why people refunded this game, I did it myself.

    I hope the game will receive the respect it deserves but it seems like it won't at this point.    … Expand

    Reforged ? More like Downgraded. A lot of bugs. Misleading, broken, and morally bankrupt, these words are what describes Blizzard and the games they currently produce. The internet will remember this, and other cases of corporate mismanagement.

    Simply pathetic what Blizzard has delivered there.
    They should take an example from Command & Conquer, which is worthy of a remake.

    Stealing everything from the custom game makers and making the older version unplayable? King is dead, long live the king.

    Варкрафт 3 - самая большая афера Близардов после перезапуска классических дополнений. Этот тот случай, когда можно использовать труды старых разработчиков(а именно создателей классического варкрафта 3 в 2004 году), накинуть на все катсцены новые модельки(за всю сюжетную кампанию изменена только миссия с луносветом) поставить то же аудио и просто выкатить игру как в далеком 2004.

Ни профиле(изначально), ни нормальной игротеки, которая не вылетала бы ни других нововведений или даже простого изменения баланса(единственное что немного поменяли артефакты за несколько месяцев после старта у нежити), игра не стоит своих денег, и даже если бы она была бесплатной в нее не играло бы больше людей ибо в связи с вымирающей эпохой стратегий большие боссы не решились провести нормальную маркетинговую работу. Поняв это а середине разработки они вообще сократили штаб вдове, что заставило оставшихся выпускать игры сырой и недоделанной. Что говорить, если игра 2004 года с гареной(по факту пиратской приложухой от обычных разрабов без больших денег) работает лучше, чем продукт компании-миллионника.Одно радует, близы решили не менять внешность, пол гендер и расу у классических героев, дабы не отбить желание на покупку у таких олдов-терпил как я, которые до последнего надеялись на нормальное обновление игры и возрождение той самой любимой компании детства как Близард. Грустно наблюдать как с процессом взросления, погибает столь любимая и перспективная компания… Expand

    you managed to **** up a 14 year old game. You falsely advertised features that are not in the game. You destroyed the community making custom maps. You also removed my ability to play frozen throne. You suck so hard.

    Good job

    This game got deservedly terrible reception but has since been fixed in every way that matters. There have been many balance changes to items/units that make the game significantly more fun to play - but most important is the overall feel of the game.

    It's hard to explain - but its like the code under the game has been vastly improve - battles feel much more like battles than they did in classic - its something best experienced personally in game.

    Anyway, Warcraft Reforged is great now - The Lawsuit fixed it somehow.    … Expand

    - So many bugs added due to Blizzard firing their original development team.
    - New Models are Textures are far flung from Warcraft original cartoony look and feel.
    - Game is overly unoptimized and takes so much space and RAM on PCs that can actually run it.
    - And for those that can only run the Classic version they are now unable due to the demanding nature of the Game.
    - It's overly expensive for its worth but delivers so little.
    - Blizzard removing the old iteration of the game and forces everyone to buy the Reforged (Classic was 10 USD, Reforged is at least 30 USD).

    This game could've been more, but sadly Blizzard is no longer the gaming giant it was before; and this is a prime example of its fall from grace.    … Expand

    Why did you do this? You denigrated a game that was beloved in the eyes of many and for what, a paltry profit and significant loss in reputation?

    Dear lord, what a sad little game, Blizzard. You ruined a 17 year old game completely so you could have the money and I hope now you can spend it on getting proper developers and doing some market research. Because you have all the grace of a reversing dump truck without any tyres on. So Blizzard return my money and get out of the market. You’re done. RIP Blizzard    … 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.
