Guys, whats up? Are you afraid or ,,hyped" on Reforged? Nobody seems to discuss anything, and game will be released from tomorrow!
AGGRESSIVE RELEASE IS COMING! or AGGRESSIVE REFUND! hahahaha!
@Venombite @MasterBlaster @deepstrasz tomorrow is day! Truth will be seen if this all was joke or something serious
Actually, tomorrow is not the day! The game doesn't come out till the 29th of January in Europe. The 28th of January is according to the LA time.
I actually haven't bought the game yet, I never pre order anything. But I'll buy it eventually after "the initial patching phase" what is roughly three weeks from now. I simply really like the game and the new graphic.
As do I have any hopes for Reforged, I'll just go out and say it, no I don't.
Why?
Well considering the recent events(*cough*BfA ending*cough*), I think it's really unrealistic to have any hopes for Reforged. Purists can complain all they want, but the fact is succesful WoW, means successful Warcraft 3, and vice versa. Without WoW, there is no Warcraft 3, and without Warcraft 3 there is no WoW. It's a fact. And seeing how the company is butchering WoW, how BfA patches kept getting significantly worse one after another (seriousely, how do you get from Daughter of the Sea, one of the best cinematics in game, top 5 easily, to a 24sec destruction of Mordor), and announcing the expansion that for the first time doesn't look promising at all, to me these are all signs that Blizzard simply doesn't care about this franchise anymore. BfA became the second worst expansion, sadly.
WoW Classic is not fairing any better, I heard it's loosing subscriptions daily.
Back in 2018 they had big plans for the project, but something went wrong. What?
- They weren't happy with the pre-order numbers.
- They didn't predict that the game will gross enough.
- They didn't think that the game has enough potential after release.
- They needed the team and budget for other projects.
Or most likely all of this combined. So they've basically abandoned the project.
Most probaly, after "the initial patching phase" the game will be officially put on maintainance mode, and they won't be touching it again, apart for e-sporting events, which I personally don't see being a success.
