i was really holding out hope for a long time but it's clear that reforged is a big stinky doo doo at this point and i'm pretty sure blizzard will soon or has already abandoned doing anything with this other than a 1 time cash grab (that they hosed up real bad)

chaosapiant posted:So what's the current state of affairs with WC3 Reforged? I loved the original and am thinking of picking it up. I understand it's super underwhelming compared to what was promised, but all I want is the original game sharpened up a bit and otherwise left alone. Is it that, or is it a supremely broken version of a game that was already fixed? There's nothing redeeming about Reforged so far but they added native widescreen to WCIII in 2018 so if you haven't played in a while just patch or like me buy Reforged and only play classic settings.

I still don't know how it works. I bought Warcraft 3 many years ago, am I allowed to play my video game or do I need to buy Reforged for some reason?

if you have a roc and/or tft war3 key associated with your bnet account, you can download and play reforged through the launcher (on classic graphics only)

chaosapiant posted:That's fair. I'm just looking to relive the Chaos/Throne campaigns really because I'm old and suck at multiplayer. But the campaigns were loving awesome and I loved how of all Blizzard's RTS, W3 was the easiest (for me at least) game to micro with the smaller control groups and some units having auto-powers. It's got the same number of units per control group as BW and 3 more than WC2

I think what he's trying to say is that the unit counts in typical melee War3 are smaller. 20 minutes into a broodwar game as zerg (or the other races too, really) you will have tons more control groups to move around compared to the same amount of time into a game as any Race in war3.

So, the HD graphic work in Reforged is quite terrible and aside from the myriad other complaints from WC3 fans it's the most obvious and glaring issue. Like the work is bad enough that on the orc UI you can't tell the difference between buildings the peon can make. So it really highlights how good and thoughtful the original art design was when you see how slapped together Reforged is. The unit portraits are pretty much without exception embarrassing.

Yeah an endgame army in WC3 is like two full control groups.

Hey y'all remember when Starcraft Remastered went off without a hitch? I keep feeling like the reason Reforged was a disaster is that WC3 is by far Blizzard's most ambitious game to that point, maybe ever, and has like five million more art assets than their previous 2D games to look after. For the same reasons, I think a Diablo 2 remaster would do OK. Now if only the company were better.

The Wiggly Wizard posted:The Starcraft remaster looks like a lovely mobile game I mean, considering that most remasters are basically just improved/remade assets overlaid on top of the already existing engine and graphics I don't really know much more can be done short of remaking the whole game from the ground up. I feel like 2D/sprite based remasters are the ones that tend to be least impressive overall. At least things have improved in contrast to years ago when "HD" versions of games were first being released where they would just throw some kind of Photoshop smoothing feature over the artwork and call it HD.

The look just never appealed to me. I think seeing a trailer with high def cartoon mutalisks juttering around in the old frame rate looked cheap. I think they had a cool opportunity to make some beautiful pixel art and maybe make the animations more articulated.

what do you guys think of the Starcraft Cartooned remaster? I kind of want to get it because it reminds me of Newgrounds era flash movies/games. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMEh4f1psYY I haven't replayed the original Starcraft campaigns in years, and I don't know if I would want to do it Reforged or Cartooned.

Are there any sort of channels where people watch replays of bad players for WC3 or BW? I've been watching a lot of low elo legends for aoe2 and it's basically just someone who knows the game well watching really really really bad players and the baffling things they do and it's really funny and sometimes even educational. I don't know if either of the blizz games are the type that lend themselves well to this sort of thing but if anyone knows, I'm down to watch.

If I could buy Cartooned and not also Remastered, I'd get Cartooned. But as Blizzard is run by lovely loving assholes, I will have to satisfy myself with Carbot's animations (which are fun and also the punchlines are funny).
