    It's a disaster. For me the campaign is absolute master piece and cornerstone od Warcraft. When they announced the Culling trailer on Blizzcon 2018, along with making some subtle changes to make Jaina and Sylvanas and maybe some other characters a little bit more prominent, I was beyond delighted.

    Instead we got almost the same cutscenes as 18 years ago. Granted, some ARE improved like    It's a disaster. For me the campaign is absolute master piece and cornerstone od Warcraft.

    Instead we got almost the same cutscenes as 18 years ago. Granted, some ARE improved like the Arthas claiming Frostmourne, but most are not, and even those a little bit improved fell short of what was promised. For me, the Culling style (from the trailer) would have been like a whole New experience. What we get is just the same with better graphics, a few cosmetic changes to disguise the fact that they had done almost nothing, and a ton od Bugs and stripped features.

    The only way forward I can see is for Blizzard to urgently remedy all the technical problems, restore features, AND make the cutscenes that were promised. I don't care if it takes a month, two or half a Year but they MUST be done. Blizzard has the audacity to still advertise the game with Culling trailer from Blizzcon 2018 at this very moment.

    I mean they can stil salvage the situation, but it requires them to step forward, admit they screwed this up and actually deliver what was promised and made people buy this game in the first place. Of course fixing all the technical problems goes without saying.    … Expand

    18 years ago I played my first WC3 game.
    During that 18 years a lot had happened... I graduated from university, got married, got two children.

    18 years had pass and I was still playing WC3. Now with my son.

    An now Reforged had happen.
    Well, what can I say...

    We got new skins. That's good, probably.

    The bad? Everything else.
    - Menu lags.
    - Menu looks ugly on 21:9 monitors
    - FPS is 1/5 of the classic mode.
    - Visual style is just not right. Every individual model is good, but it's extremely hard to distinguish unit during big fights. And overall graphics style is just ugly.
    - Campaign was not updated. OK, It's understandable that people may want old story unchanged. What is not understandable, why Blizzard didn't change every single cinematic like they did for Blizzcon demo.
    - Bugs are everywhere. Game crashes, lags, issues with connection to custom games.
    - Classic mode, the last hope, looks just worse than 18 years ago. Literally, they made graphics worse.
    - ROC campaign is gone. Now it's just TFT balance.

    A complete disappointment.
    The only thing the blizzard can do with this game is to call this release "public beta" and deliver real "Reforge". In 2021.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game had so much potential but it looks like corporate greed once again got the better of blizzard. Blizzard was one of the best gaming companies that ever existed and seeing them delay this game not once but twice just for it to be released without the content they promised at blizzcon. Not only has blizzard achieved something that no other company has ever done by introducing the policy that gives them ownership of all content created in the custom community but they also have ruined the custom game/map community and it is sad to see blizzard in such a state. Dont buy this game because this will only send a positive message to blizzard rather than sending a message that will make them regret releasing an unfinished project, boycott this crap and refuse to buy future blizz products because they dont even respect their customers enough to give them refunds and are even banning users on the blizz forums trying to help others get refunds and refuse to comply with Australian consumer laws. **** man this game makes me feel sad and the current state of blizzard makes.me feel depressed, dont buy this product unless they introduce some major fixes.… Expand

    Yet another Blizzard's miscarriage.
    This game has been released from beta too early. In my opinion, it is fault of brain-dead managers from Activision Blizzard, who are responsible for this project and who just wanted to grab cash from W3 fans.
    Which is more, the classic versions are gone.
    Also, f**k neutral critics reviews. Should have destroyed this game with a solid 0 - 30 metascore.

    Only that in the case of Warcraft 3: "Refunded", they did not run out of source material, because they literally created the original game. The reason WHY I bought this was, because I hoped for upgraded graphics ingame as well as new cinematics and a better UI etc.

    Blizzard already let me down HARD with Diablo 3 and the matchmaking in Heroes of the storm is a disaster. No wonder there is no more support because most players are not masochists that like the torture of grinding through weeks or months of gaming to get to the rank they should actually be playing in.
    Hearthstone is honestly the only decent game worth playing right now, SC2 can be played for custom maps like desert strike at best unless you are a die-hard fan And when they announced reforged, I thought the fans would get an UPGRADED WC3 experience.

    Instead they only upgraded their greed by a factor of 10 by basically claiming the rights to custom maps so other studios or devs could not make a game like DOTA (which came from a wc3 custom map).

    Graphics are not what was promised
    Performance is terrible
    Campain has bugs (e.g. you load the campaing and get INSTA-lose when the loading screen is done and can't do anything about it)
    User Interface is garbage
    And I honestly just tested it for 2-3 hours so far. I am sure if I stuck to playing it more, my list of flaws would be way way longer.
    I do not expect this from a multi-billion dollar company that had several YEARS of development time for the game.

    I have seen solo indy developers that can do more alone in their mom's basement, than the development team of this company did with their staff in all those years.

    I guess they are all just paid for drinking coffee and playing hacky sack because CLEARLY there is no such thing as a QA department.

    Well who knows, maybe it was optimized for playing on phones.

    Reforged was supposed to be a remaster, but surprisingly not only did it fail in every aspect other than visual upgrades (some of which was blatantly lied about), it managed to tarnish the original game as well. If you somehow managed to get the game to work without getting black screen, instant defeat or having connectivity issues, good for you.

That should be enough to keep you from spending your hard earned cash on a product which doesn't live up to its marketing, and actually breakes other products by only existing.

    After 17 years of playing wc3 it has never been in such a bad state not even during the late 2010's before the remaster was announced and the custom map community was in decline as many of its users grew up and could no longer play as much as they used to. The reforged has some good traits however flashy visuals do no come close to making up for what was lost.

    Blizzard is dead. Has been a great run but at this point it is clear that their investors have claimed complete control (creative and not) and it shows.

It really looks like an half assed mobile game, it's a remaster not a remake as they claimed. Not only did they release this poor excuse for a game, they releases a huge patch for warcraft 3 which removes/brakes tons of features and gamemodes. Other maps and gamemodes were banned due to copyright issues, this should not be a problem to begin with since we are talking about user made content. It wouldn't surprise me to discover that this happened due to the stake holders having business with the copyright holders referenced in that content. I would give it a 2 but at this point I'll give it a 0 for their poor treatment of their customers. If you want to do a good thing for the games industry don't support such a company… Expand

    The new trend of releasing unfinished games... Blizzard has been fully consumed by activision. This game is unfinished laggy and not optimised. You cant create custom maps bc all custom maps are property of blizz.

    I'm not another person just zero bombing to bandwagon like some of the other people here are, this is a genuinely bad game. Its a stripped version of the old warcraft 3. They actually managed to ruin an old game by stripping off features.

    They couldn't even properly remaster an old game.

    The classic bait and switch. or, lie to consumers.

    Warcraft III: Reforged is NOT a "stunning reimagining" , nor is It is "a remake in the truest sense," -- it's a remake in ZERO sense. NOTHING is re-made. some ghetto d3 looking models are mapped over characters, creating pathing and graphics issues. There is no "through visual overhaul", with no "Reimagined Visuals" as Blizzard claims.    The classic bait and switch. or, lie to consumers.

Some poorly designed water graphics effects and that's it. ".....with over four hours of reshot cutscenes and updated voice-overs", same same.

    This whole project just reeks of greed and a quick cash in, proven by the fact that any custom games is the undisuputable property of Blizzard **** and co. You really think they would've let another DOTA flourish from the community and they wouldn't be at the forefront of that dollar waterfall?

    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.
