      After WarCraft 3 Reforged Refunded ruined the game for everyone, it’s hard to want to try any others. Have you tried these remasters? I’m not planning on giving them money, but I am curious.

          Succinctly put. I feel like the original vision did not intend for them to look so cartoonish.

          Starcraft 1 remaster looked so much better, too. Was that done by the same team?

          god could they just do one thing right with this franchise? Thanks for falling on the sword for us, guess I’ll have to hold onto my pirated copy of OG Warcraft 3, since I can’t download the one I legally own.
