    Please Blizzard, remember who you are. We need you to make this game as it deserves to be done as well, with all the dedication and investment! Please, remake this game again!

And if you happen to own the classic verison, if forcibly downgrades to Reforged (with Reforged's graphics being behind the paywall). Not only that, the game is also buggy, poorly balanced, the graphics are downgraded from the trailers (and they weren't exactly mind-blowing there either) and from the classic version as well! And even if you try the classic graphics mode, it still looks worse than the actual Warcraft 3 classic client!

    Blizzard, you had ONE job: give one of the best games of all time a fresh new coat of paint. Instead the only thing you painted is a target on your backs.
    Reap the consequences.

    Horrible game, not even in 2003 could you get this bad. Hilarious how they even failed to make a reskin of an old game but not competent enough to create features we had back 17 years ago! This company went from being the best to being trash in no time. The hilarious part is they are banning people for asking refund for the game or helping others getting refunds.

    What a disappointment. This was purely a cash grab. They've also doubled down updating their policy claiming rights to every map you make and banning anything they deem to be copyright material. No more fan maps for tv shows and games. Their new model is to steal game ideas from aspiring children and game developers.

    The whole game is just a blanket covering the major terms and policies rewriting trying to scam players. Old bugs from original W3, bunch of new bugs, broken balanse, unfuffiled promises and almost non-existent re-texture - that's all you gonna find here. They even removed national localisation's voice acting. So in fact, this "reforged" version offers you less than original game.

The blizzard of the past wouldve rather gone bankrupt than release a title such as this in this state. Now it's just a chinese money grabbing joke.

    I wish it was a product created with thought and care. Instead it's a result of false marketing, little faith in success and extremely low budget. The best and the only new part of this edition is the models, and ironically they were outsourced.

    Blizzard should haven't given promises which they couldn't handle, if it was advertised with less ambitious ideas - the outcome would be different.

    A personal review from someone that played every Blizzard RTS from Starcraft. I didn't pay too much attention to what was promised about the campaign and I think any problems with cutscenes and such have been discussed enough by now. Trying to share my perspective on this game.

    I pre-ordered WC3:R shortly after it's announcement 2018 because I loved Starcraft as a child and naturally progressed to WC3 when it released back in the day. I really looked forward to this as I LOVE RTS and it's competitive side. I've been looking for my RTS laddering fix for a long time.
    Sadly the remake of Starcraft was a huge failure in my book and didn't revitalize the scene. A major problem for me was how the ladder was set up. It was literally like Brood Wars - a 1v1 ladder with only the most basic stats. Games are more fun with friends though and I even convinced some friends that wanted to play 2v2 ladder with me. I'm a good RTS player because I spent thousands of hours practicing. None of my real life friends come close and aren't interested in playing 1v1s with me. Getting stomped is no fun and it's no fun for me either. Somehow I expected a remake to provide improvement on that side - a league system like present in SCII for example. Many of the games problems aren't fixed to this day.

    The beta already offered a first glance at WC3:R when I played it in early December 19. I struggled to even get into a game due to a lot of bugs but the games I got into I actually enjoyed. A shocking moment was when I tried to team up with a friend and it wouldn't work whatsoever. I credited it to the non-working Battle.net-friends implementation and tried to keep my hopes up. I even wrote a lengthy post on the official forums pointing out problems, hoping for a delayed release to fix everything and them not repeating the mistakes they made with their Starcraft remaster.

    When I saw they postponed the release I was VERY hopeful they got the message and this will actually be the big thing we waited for. Sadly, it isn't. To my disappointment I had to see that even functionalities that we already had in the original game were removed.
    For example:
    There’s no competitive ladder right now. You read that right - the very company that ignited the passion for RTS esports in so many gamers released the remake of their amazing game without a competitive ladder! There’s also no profiles or tournaments like there were in the original game

    I really didn’t have any expectations for anything singleplayer related and I’d have been fine even if they kept the old ladder system. I mean I really hoped for the introduction of a division-like system and quality of life functionalities like reconnecting to your games. Maybe even live-spectating would have been a cool idea.

    The sad reality is that they removed one of THE key aspects from the game (speaking about competitive ladder). This game is far worse compared to the game it was supposed to remaster and I just can’t wrap my head around how you could **** up both the Starcraft and Warcraft remaster. I mean the game already was brilliant, there wasn’t much to do besides graphic overhaul, bringing existing systems more in line with nowadays industry standards and maybe adding basic quality of life features as the cherry on top.
    Unless they add a good iteration of a ranked competitive play soon, and I’m talking a matter of days here, this game is dead on arrival. I’ve seen how they handled Starcraft and if there’s nothing done about it now it’s not gonna be fixed even in a year from now.

    Giving it 1/10 just because the game plays good when it actually works, just like the classic version of the game. Everything else about it is a cluster****. If you are trying to decide whether to buy or not please read up if the thing you care about is actually in the game right now. If you are about competitive play like I am don’t bother right now.

    Warcraft 3 rebirth graphics mod, does most better with the art/colour and more personality then some flat HD colorless models. To be fair it gets some right in the graphical department and some models are def better then wc3 classic and rebirth. But alot is worse then even classical, let alone rebirth.

    Now I know of the false advertising practices and the outsourcing of the graphics.

    Not only that, I lost all the save, I was not warned, a complete disregard for the audience.

    Riddled with bug that should have been caught by QA. The promised "improved" cinematics are nowhere near what they showed to promote the game. Bait and switch at its best.

    Warcraft 3 was my childhood game, when the trailer for reforged released i screamed like a little girl in anticipation, I could not believe it, they were remaking one of my favorite video games of all time.

I got into the hype and pre ordered and waited for 2 years, literally counting the days so i could replay the campaign and play those amazing custom games in HD and improved animations and so forth. Sadly, all we got was a HD texture pack with none of the promised features. This is blatant false advertising and Blizzard should shut the game down and release it again but do it good this time. I refunded my purchase because of this, the game is buggy and unfinished and just a big of a mess as fallout 76 was when it was released. Shame on you Blizzard. Expand

    No redone cut-scenes, no improved UI, no adjusted plot to current lore state. Not Reforged, just redrawn, re-voiced. Overall this one seems like piece of false advertisement from Blizzcon 2018.
    Classic Warcraft 3 client is gone, new one seems better but some functionality like clans is lost.
    I doubt Blizzard fix this failure, but hope a bit though.

    Somehow they managed to completely butcher a great game. Literally all they had to do with update character models, UI, and textures to high res. Instead they managed to break the map editor, make the UI ugly compared to the original, completely ruin the atmosphere of the original game, break the campaign, make the b.net chat rooms feel like garbage, change the portrait rewards intoSomehow they managed to completely butcher a great game.

They strung us along for 2 years of setbacks just to give us a product that is actually worse than the original. Not even the gameplay feels right. Units get stuck, spells will randomly fail to hit, because of the unit collision feeling different it also feels imbalanced just based on that. I played many many many hours of the original and this just almost feels like a cheap knockoff done by an independent studio. 0/10 do not recommend. Expand

    If I had looked at this game, and somebody told me it was done by a modder in his off time I would’ve believed it, no questions asked. Now, this being created by a company with over 20 years in the industry… I have nothing but questions.

    I could start talking about the state of the “reforged” models, which look unpolished to say the least, or go about how those animations looked

    I could start talking about the state of the “reforged” models, which look unpolished to say the least, or go about how those animations looked chopped, and even if your game says that it’s running at high FPS, you have to constantly double check it because your eyes tell you that you are not seeing more than 20 FPS… But going over all of that would turn this review into an essay.

    The performance, the bugs, the mutilation of the classic client and a clear step backwards tells an incomplete story that I for sure will wait until in a few years we see the documentary of “Warcraft III: Reforged. What went wrong?” to try to understand all the choices that led to the savage obliteration of a classic game. Releasing this even for free would be an insult.

Not to mention that none of the CGI cinematics were reworked simply upressed and colour corrected. This is essentially an HD texture repack for 30$ and they still have the audacity to display the promised changes upon launch that were promised initially in the warcraft official page. They should be sued for blatantly lying to the consumers and feeding off on the nostalgia. This is a cashgrab plain and simple and I hope blizzard either reinvest resources and fix the game and apologise to the community. Expand

    This is neither a preserved classic, nor a port for it to the year 2020.
    The graphics are kind of OK. But that is pretty much all it achieved because even feature wise it is a big downgrade.
    Controls are as clumsy and limited as in the original.

    My first review, I made this account just for this. Because I have been nearly crying these days.

    I don't know if someone reads this but, here I go. Hello, Blizzard. Your games have been with me since, LITERALLY the beginning of my 'gaming' life. The first game I ever played was the first Starcraft on my old computer. And I have bought and played EVERY single game of yours since then.

The first game I ever played was the first Starcraft on my old computer. And I have bought and played EVERY single game of yours since then. From that Starcraft to Overwatch, and all the games in between, even bought stuff on the F2P (now P2W) games.

    And now you ruined my favourite one. You didn't only launch a game which is CLEARLY not finished, with BUGS, 90% copy-pasted and charge us 30€ for it. You REMOVED the access to the original game. I had friends there, MANY FRIENDS, I kept playing with them after 5-10 years. The community was still VERY ALIVE, even new maps being launched. You removed the best thing I kept from my childhood, you took away from me a game that was with me since I started playing when I was 3 years old.

    You have always been my favourite developer/publisher, Blizzard. And Warcraft III was, is, and will forever be my favourite game.

    And you know what? Blizzard is still my favourite developer. BLIZZARD, not A¢t¥v¥$ion B£¥$$ard. You are just like EA. No. WORSE than EA. I will never EVER spend a single € on your games. Never again.

    I hope you end up declaring bankruptcy, and some guys with an indie small studio make a decent tribute to the original Warcraft III.

    WTF with the Blizzard taking all the rights from custom modes? Why would someone build any custom mode with the chance to go viral but to win nothing? Other than that the cut scenes feel like garbage. This doesn't feel like a reforge just a re-launch to win more money, but this is what has been moving companies more money and less quality in the end that IS what matters.

    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.
