BurnTheMind

Good afternoon, today for your review, I present to you my campaign called "Burn the Mind", where I abandoned the reworking of the plot and completely focused on playing only enemies.
There are five chapters.
You must go through a series of missions, each of which presents a new challenge and an opportunity to learn more about your locality and the reasons for your downfall.
There are two difficulties to choose from - Normal, Hard.
The ZIP file contains a version for the 1.26-1.31 version, as well as exclusively for Reforged.

Countdown to Extinction has no loading screen. The Sea Witch is a hero with no hero glow. It can simply be added: How to add Hero Glow without Modeling Overall, neat edit. Not too much replayability though. Approved. If you want more reviews, you...

This is like Wings of Liberty reversed. Quite enjoyable. I like that it was somewhat expanded from the base game and not just a plain copy-paste. In Chapter 2, I found an island with insane loot. Is that supposed to be there of left by accident? Also, that elemental attack is really annoying XD

This was very enjoyable to play I would love to see your take on the other campaigns. Cause you dont just flip who the player controls you add little things that mix the gameplay up a bit.

I did notice the Murloc Mage description says "ripple" instead of "Cripple"

Good afternoon, thanks for the feedback, in which chapter did you see this bug, and was it in version 1.26 or in Reforged? I would also like to hear from you if you would change or redo it. Thank you.

Last chapter where you train the murlocs is where I noticed it. As far as changing it I dont mind having cripple its a good spell

I enjoyed this one, it was pretty funny and I liked the reversed concept, wish we would've gotten some more like these. I only had one issue with the campaign and that was the difficulty. Even on normal, the micro missions felt...awful to try and beat at the very least, mostly due to that Spirit Link thingy where all of the AI's units share HP. And with how weak the provided units are, its...staggering to say the least. Also, descriptions of units should be updated and more fleshed out, the Murloc Mage in the last mission has "ripple" instead of Cripple in his description and the Footman and Rifleman (at least those I noticed) have rather eye-hurting descriptions, specifically the Rifleman. On the difficulty, its up to you how you handle it, but in my experience as a casual player, it was...not pleasant in some areas. The descriptions can be done better by either sectioning them (i.e writing the Rifleman just how Blizzard has him and then adding an organized text with his new ability and any bit of extra info you might want to add, not just clumping it all together as it looks bad and doesnt interest the player in reading it). Overall was a nice experience, I do hope you make more of these. 3/5!

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION
  • A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
  • A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
  • Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.

I just finished it, and I gotta say this is the campaign I've been looking for a long time. Playing a vanilla WC3 campaign as the opposing race is what I always wanted to try, and this here is the closest I'll ever get. I am seriously hoping more campaigns like this will come out in the future. I can already imagine myself playing first and second human mission as the Blackrock orcs who try to prevent Arthas from killing the orc leaders.
I ran into the bug in chapter 5 - after some time, the game started lagging massively, I could barely play the chapter. This really needs to be fixed. I am playing on 1.31 version of the game.

Please, write on the post whether its RPG or RTS..or Both
It is Exodus of the Horde but from a different perspective. It does have RTS maps where you build a base, but the RPG maps are different. Take the first map for example, instead of you directing Thrall from point A to point B, you have to stop him before he reaches Medivh. So yeah, it does have both RTS and RPG, it's just that RPG maps aren't what you are typically used to
