I love original books especially Lord of Clans and all stuff before story and universe went awry and i did play the original version of the campaign several years ago..., but why for all that is holy is it in HD mode?.... Reforged always looked hedious, like thos cheap "unreal engnie 5 concept" for 'X' game series, its disgusting to look at..

Its just grotesque and looks nothing like warcraft. I wish all those projects were in more drawn comic style that Warcraft was designed as, straight from Samwise's and Metzen's artwork and doodles as they read all the 90s comic books, not this...

I will never forgive Blizzard for doing this to the game and leaving it as such. If they done it right we wouldnt even have to split anything. It would just be og artstyle on "ultra settings"(War3HD models in SC2 were halfway there, some aspects of the models were quite meh tho like faces being all wrong, but atleast it tried to emulate og art and kept the animations).

I cant even play these, because i refuse to give Lizzard Entertainment my money for what they've done. I already had to bounce off several hd only custom maps, these just end up the same... and i wish i could, because under Reforged's profound ugliness and attempts to ...emulate it for whatever reason, are good ideas and map/mission design. I wish could, without having to endure 'HD modes' grotesque hediousness nor breaking my oath to never give blizzard another dime since 2018...
Edit: there is sd version burried in FAQ off a google, drive. Shouldnt it link to SD verion's hivepage?

I wouldn't go so far as to call Reforged ugly. I actually prefer it over SD now that I have gotten used to it, and there is much more you can do with it when it comes to terraining and cinematics. But I agree with your idea that the style should have been different. It could have been more comic style while still offering a lot of detail.

The SD version can still be found here: Lord of the Clans (Classic SD)

 

[Bitterman]

Well now, something to play once i finish fallout 4 and some battlezone 98 redux stuff.

 

[Jahjahbinks]

I actually read this book somehow. Have to play it now! Do you prefer the HD version experience? Given its an RPG, the visibility issues shouldnt be a concern.

 

[AlexBeketov]

after the reforging was released, I thought that the developers could make other companies that had previously been in other games on it, but the fans do not only faster but also better than the developers, eh Blizzard... So merge the game, thanks for your hard work. You're just great!

 

[Anaxie]

Wow

come a long way\

Wanna see the remake of last guardian now i must say.

@OutsiderXE

it's a long shot but have you tried tweeting this to Metzen of all people. This would probably excite him for a multitude of reasons.

I don't have Twitter. Maybe someone else can do it.

 

[RED BARON]

Absolutely amazing! This is the custom campaign that got me into making trying my hand at my own (still unreleased ). I might even start reforged to play it, though who knows if time permits. But absolutely excellent.

Thank you so much for both this and the original.

can't play crash first mission after showing clock
PS Maybe because of Quen Mod? or maybe because of macOS
