After the announcement of Warcraft 3 Reforged at Blizzcon 2018, Blizzard revealed minimum system requirements.
From VGC: "The president of Blizzard Entertainment has stated that there will be new information on Warcraft 3: Reforged in June.
The remaster of the 2002 strategy game was released on PC in January 2020 and attracted widespread criticism from its fanbase, resulting in it becoming the worst user-scored game ever on Metacritic at the time.
Blizzard promised in a blog post in May 2020 that it would be “working towards a roadmap” to fix the game’s issues, but just a few months later it stopped releasing updates."
Of course this has nothing to do with the Microsoft buyout being finalized.
No doubt microsoft has a team in there going through everything with a fine tooth comb to save/make every dollar this team was no doubt on the chopping block.
I mean all blizzard has done is ports/mobile games then overwatch 2....... would not be surprised microsoft was like ok what do you have and they are like oh oh were fixing this game look look.
Oh and of course they have overwatch 1 the game that had over 5 million active users a month then 3 yrs later everyone is like oh yeah that game is it still online?
I think over watch is pulling what 10-22k a month now in players? if that
The overwatch 2 twitch viewership disaster enough said there.
I'm hoping Microsoft can step in and force Blizzard to deliver what the early trailers promised.

Did you make sure that all the characters are wearing the right color hats? It’s a tricky thing to get right, and sometimes, it goes horribly wrong, hence the following list. These are the worst video game remakes of all time."
Remake or Remaster? I think the writer doesn't know the different between remake and remaster
I know that the Silent Hill HD "remaster" isn't the biggest offender on this list, but because I hold those games so dearly to my heart, the horrific end-product by an indifferent studio felt like a personal attack on some of the greatest "gaming years" of my life.
The SH HD Remaster I enjoyed I also had fun trophy hunting it for PS3. I know it has it's quirks that fans hate but I paid $30 for it on Ebay. The PS2 port is fetching around $150 so I saved myself $120 Canadian going the PS3 route I will grab SH3 on PS2 sometime. But I enjoyed the game specially since I have never played SH3 before SH2 I got free with a $10 Xbox I bought.
To the end of the earth all the way till eternity people will still get confused about REMASTER and REMAKE. Like episodes of the Twilight Zone. Forever and ever with no end
VGChartz's Brand J Wysocki: "Disappointing is a particularly interesting and subjective category. Although in truth it’s really not much, if any, less subjective than 'Best'. That segues nicely into something that warrants being addressed - as you look through some of our other Game of the Year articles, you may notice certain games appearing on those lists as well as this one. As counterintuitive (or even outright wrong) as that may seem, it speaks to the aforementioned subjectivity, as well as the diversity of our staff and audience.
Disappointment is correlated to expectations, and expectations are a product of any number of factors, most of which are idiosyncratic. Beyond that, there are so many variables in how each game is ultimately experienced and enjoyed. A quick and fitting example would be performance and other technical issues that may be unique to a particular platform."
Warcraft III: Reforged came out so early last year that I forgot it even came out in 2020.
Lol at TLOU2 being compared to the broken POS that is Cyberpunk for disappointing game of the year.
Those 2 don’t belong anywhere near each other
Its an opinion, but putting there TLOU2 is just stupid. Even if you dont like the story, it wasnt one of the most disapointing games of 2020. Of course that for everybody that wanted another pink story..., but in that reality the story makes perfect sense. Sooner or later you will pay the price of what you did. This was the only game last year able to move me in terms of emotions. beside that, it got next gen graphics and runs without problems on PS4 (OG). Just crazy.
The Last Of Us 2 had Great, Graphics, Gameplay, Sound design (for the most part) and almost glitch free. But that story was so garbage it almost negates all the positives of the game. Even with being able to skip cut scenes the game is a drag to playthrough again. The Narrative of the game is a FAIL. Everything else is pretty good though.
Oh so this really is just a remaster? These specs seem really low to me.
