Is there a famous company that is not interested in gaming these days? Seems that every company from any business will have a stake in gaming soon.
IN past it was all clear. You know that bakery is making bread, you know that pharmacy company is making medications, you know who was in charge for making games. Actually you know what company is dedicated to which product. Now, these days, everyone is stepping in everyone's business. And in a result, products decrease in quality. NETFLIX: REFORGED hahaha! It could happen actually.
Xiaomi and Huawei games confirmed.
Btw, i hope micro-blizzard finally do something about warcraft 3.
Ppl talk about warcraft 1,2 and 3 and Definitive AOE Edition
Let me tell to all of you a clear thing, here now and forever : It must be on a new engine . End of the story
Will that engine be made out of sc2,hots or whatever its easier to them, doesnt matter. So, seperate from classic forever.
Next thing, why new engine? Cause if you want game be regularly mantained with such an amount of content then it has to be modern
Also, with modern engine that doesnt limit art , monetizing like skins and other stuff, and in some future on that same definitive edition gmae maybe for 10 years you would have new expansion added where wc3 story ended.
Over the time the new game, that has (wc1,wc2,wc3 implemented on a new engine + new expansion) would become what we all know as Warcraft 4.
For quality product of definitive wc1,wc2,wc3 edition if you want them once in a row you would surely wait 5-7 years...
-----I am afraid even wc1,wc2,wc3 is a huge bite to be made once in a row , even i want it with all my heart

(its possible just...no faith after this reforged thing...)
So, the history teach us, step by step , small portion of bites and goal is accomplished with quality secured...
------------- But heres how i would do it, and secure sucsess -------------------
1.I would first make Warcraft 3 from scratch, pure HD high poly remaster (i would modify and repolish good reforged assets and code them for campaign use)
This is how community and customers would regain trust.
2. I would then go Lotr movie trick - cover wc2 and wc1 on same engine in following years
3.Within 7-10 years after that i would consider new expansions with lore where wc3 stoped, on that same engine we had wc1,2,3.
With a possible adding new system like open world mmo (probably with fog of war) - camera like diablo-wc3 if you got me (not like wow)
All of that on one client,1 engine having what we always had : ladder, campaign,custom campaign,custom games...And if game becomes sucsesfull we could even have blizzard mobas in it , who knows.
That would be warcraft 4 for me (a continuous developed game on 1 client,1 engine,continued lore,same art style - basically what wow intended).
Not like :Hey microsoft make me warcraft 4 right now xD
And ye, they would surely make alot of cash with endless possibilitys this game has xD
