First of all:
@InsaneMonster managed to Re-Reforge the campaign, there is no doubt about that.
Everyone who followed Reforged way back then was hyped. We were promised cinematics on far with modern expectations, some of us have hoped for extra characters or expansion of the lore.
Sadly we got very little of it, in fact only a few mission even had greatly improved cinematics. I don't feel the need to dab on Reforged any more, we all know what we got and what we wanted...
However, there are fans of the universe who are willing to give many hours of their free time to fulfil their own dreams and the dreams of others. So here we are, Re-Reforged, Exodus of the Horde.
I recommend anyone who owns Reforged to play this campaign, and assure that you will find your previously broken expectations met.
Cinematics - Immersion
One of the first things you'll see are exactly the level of cinematography that you have seen at BlizzCon trailer, if not better.
The camera is dynamic and close to the units, showing their lipsinc and high quality textures. There are also custom models here and there as well as unused Blizzard ones.
There is a lot of attention to detail in the cinematics. One of the first things I noticed is a grunt turning away and quickly back to Thrall when spoken to again after a pause.
This is such a small thing, yet very immersive behaviour. There is more background action in general, such as peons working, soldiers being wounded after a battles etc., etc.
More music and extra sounds are used in many occasions (armour clunking, steps etc.), this is yet again proving an overall higher quality to the cinematics.
Gameplay
You would have thought it's just a project that alters cutscenes, but that's not the case. While the first two missions are close to original (with some improvements), the rest is completely reimagined.
In fact, every mission on the islands feels completely new besides the story. Assets, terrain and atmosphere are more fitting. Map layout and gameplay is more engaging.
Hell, there is even a proper boss fight at some point, but I don't want to spoil too much for those who still haven't played though this gem.
5/5 is well deserved, there was clearly a lot of work, polishing and love put into this.
I do hope enough support will be provided for the project, because I really want to see as much of the campaign being Re-Reforged as possible!
