Warcraft III: Reforged Reviews
Fans of the original are clearly miffed but, if like me, you missed it the first time, or haven’t played in ages, Warcraft 3: Reforged is a game that simply must be played
All in all, playing multiplayer with everything available in Warcraft III: Reforged is a great experience. It's a smooth, attractive and altogether great experience for those who are wanting to see the game that started the DOTA craze as well as a game with one of the most thriving and energetic modding communities in the world.
Reforged is an uninspiring remaster, but Warcraft 3 itself is still a great game nearly two decades later.
Warcraft III Reforged is at least equal to itself and it is already something. Yes, its graphics engine fails to display a fluidity worthy of the finesse of its redesign. But the game mechanics, the storyboarding of the campaigns and augmented narration convince the player even more that he is facing one of the big names in the history of video games. If you are not a player who is looking to be sharp to enter esports, you will also have a great time online. Don't give in to blind bashing. Make your own opinion!

A successful update of a great game's presentation, but which removes a number of features that may leave old fans hurting.
In this state, the best way to describe Warcraft III: Reforged is "serviceable." Taken as a whole, just like the original, the remaster offers a great gameplay experience for newcomers, but there's not much here that would justify a purchase if you've already played the classic.
Warcraft III is still one of the best RTS ever made, yet this Reforged edition is just a lazy remaster. That's because many features are missing and the game is plagued by a significant amount of technical issues.

It grew the universe and helped define that high-fantasy art-style we've come to know of as “hey, that looks like a Blizzard game”.
An inexplicably careless remaster, where none of the changes are unequivocally for the better and the experience is brought down further by numerous bugs and missing features.
Warcraft III was a great game, but I struggle to find a reason to return to it in this form. Reforged has a laundry list of bugs, lack of polish, multiplayer options markedly amiss from the original offering, and uninspiring new assets
I brought up "the old Blizzard" in this review because this is a first time in a while (yes, even counting Diablo III at launch) that you can really sense a huge shift at the company in just about every sense. Warcraft III: Reforged is both the beginning and end of an era. It works to a degree thanks to the immense talent of the original Warcraft III creators and custom map fiends, but it doesn't quite feel like Blizzard, does it.
Warcraft III: Reforged is built upon such strong foundations, yet manages to be somewhat unremarkable in 2020, mired by technical hiccups and Blizzard's clumsy messaging.
Warcraft III: Reforged still delivers the same satisfying core gameplay and laudable campaigns, but Blizzard under-delivered on promises and removed features that made the original game something exceptional.
Warcraft III: Reforged is a much-needed remaster that's not quite complete.
Despite the fun that I’ve had playing Warcraft 3: Reforged and for how it has reminded me what an incredibly influential and brilliant game it is, there’s no way I could recommend anyone outside of the absolute hardcore Warcraft fanbase to purchase it.
Unfortunately, the finished product ended up being not much of an upgrade over the classic version of the game.
Lots of broken promises means this game doesn't worth buying just for Reforged makeup. But, if you haven't played Warcraft III before... then it's one hell of a game despite all annoying details.

The legendary Warcraft is back, more beautiful and atmospheric than ever. But also full of failings and controversy

Warcraft 3 Reforged was build on fandom of the original game and if you like original story you will be able to enjoy also this remaster. Wors thing about the game is not a game itself, but promises made before. Without these promises, game could be accepted by the community much better, as a kind of regular "HD patch".
