This is classic real-time strategy (RTS) stuff, and any fans of the genre who didn't play original Warcraft III when it was released all those years ago can jump into Reforged and find something to like. There are day and night cycles that affect unit viability and fog of war, adding further strategy. You still need to establish a home base, gather resources from nearby forests and gold mines, train economic and military units, upgrade buildings and unit tech, expand your borders, and ultimately scour enemies from the map. Warcraft III: Reforged is still Warcraft, albeit with some fresh graphics that are no doubt more attractive (and accessible) to newcomers. Longtime Warcraft III players already know what the game is all about, and the core gameplay thankfully hasn't changed. What went wrong? What went right? I played through the Warcraft III: Reforged campaigns and got wrecked in multiplayer matches to see where the game sits and why exactly so many people are so mad at what Blizzard has on offer here. Those following the story know that fans have review-bombed the Metacritic user score, pulling it down to a dismal 0.5 (out of 10) with more than 27,000 ratings. Whether you want to play is a different issue. Warcraft III: Reforged met its delayed release, and you can play it right now. The new character models, modernized graphics, and fresh cutscenes would certainly be worth the extra wait. No problem Blizzard's reputation for polish had to be protected. Intended to be released 2019, Blizzard announced a late-stage delay that pushed the release date to January 28, 2020. The aging but beloved games (including The Frozen Throne expansion) were together undergoing a relatively major overhaul.

When Warcraft III: Reforged was announced November 2018, more than 16 years after the release of Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, fans of the fabled series rejoiced.
