    Warcraft III: Reforged - now with lowest user metacritic score of all time

    It depends on what was broken. Atm, it's possible to make a campaign and play through it normally (as attested by Chronicles of the Second War). There are quite a lot of bugs, though, but I'm not sure which are due to the campaign or the game itself.

    Warcraft III: Reforged - now with lowest user metacritic score of all time

    The first 3 missions of both factions are the tutorial maps which end in like 10 minutes, so they don't count. It's universally acknowledged that the WC2 campaign suffers heavily from its naval focus.

    Warcraft III: Reforged - now with lowest user metacritic score of all time

    The majority of WC2's and its expansion's campaign maps are heavily water-based, requiring a lot of tedious ferrying of troops around and building a fleet beforehand to destroy ships and shipyards.

    Warcraft III: Reforged - now with lowest user metacritic score of all time

    I meant Chronicles of the Second War has a focus on naval combat because the underlying foundation is still WC2. But yeah, don't buy Reforged ever under any circumstances.

    Guild Wars 1

    They might be planning something for the 20th anniversary. It still has many fans too because it's a good game. Shocking, I know. There is nothing like it and there won't be in the foreseeable future.

    Tomb Raider I-III Remastered from Aspyr - for real this time

    If they think they'll be forerunners, that ship has already sailed, the forerunners were in the 70s and 80s, not 2024.

    Tomb Raider I-III Remastered from Aspyr - for real this time

    Marketing specialists have told them this will get them more money in the long run, they aren't doing it out of the goodness of their hearts or true belief in the cause.

    Warcraft III: Reforged - now with lowest user metacritic score of all time

    I had some Chronicles of the Second War gameplay play in the background out of curiosity while doing other stuff and it isn't a straight-up remake of WC2, it has a bunch of stuff added, along with lengthy cinematics that are well done for a mod. I'm not ever going to buy Reforged to play it...

    Guild Wars 1

    Almost all damage types respect armor (exceptions are holy and shadow). However, skills which don't have an assigned damage type ignore it by default, look at the handful of Necro skills which don't have assigned damage types that do the same thing. My "evidence" of this being unintended...

    Tomb Raider I-III Remastered from Aspyr - for real this time

    TR3 doesn't have a lot of human enemies, but it does stretch the definition of tomb even more than 2 did. Out of the original trilogy, I like 1 the most, then 3, then 2 (particularly because of the overwhelming amount of human enemies). As for The Last Revelation and Chronicles, some people say...

    Tomb Raider I-III Remastered from Aspyr - for real this time

    What does the alphabet mafia have to do with this?

    Guild Wars 1

    Yeah, they just need their damage type assigned.

    Age of Mythology: Retold

    The original fell flat in the gameplay department, they know this and probably want to change that.

    Guild Wars 1

    Mesmers have 2 things that make them op - fast casting and armor-ignoring damage. Fast casting is super good in general, so a party of 8 primary mesmers is going to do better than a mixed bag of primary casters whose special attributes are overall meh. And *all* mesmer skills ignore armor, which...
