Evidently Warcraft 3 Reforged is off to a very bad start.  As in "currently sitting at lower Metacritic user score than Fallout 76" bad.  It's a shame, I liked the old Warcraft RTS games.

Not too surprised by this. They made it sound like it was going to be an entirely new game, and just updated the graphics and made some small tweaks. They did a small scale" no man's sky," intentional or not.

You've also got this:

Customers are complaining about connectivity issues. They can’t reliably connect to custom matches. They can’t access custom campaigns that worked just fine previously. There’s no support for a competitive ladder. Making matters worse is the fact that there’s simply no going back; even if you install the original Warcraft 3, you’re still going to end up with the same issues once you connect to Blizzard’s online services because the infrastructure is now the same for both the old and the new versions of the game.

There’s yet another wrinkle to the story, as well. As USgamer points out, Blizzard has also updated some of its terms and conditions as it relates to custom game modes. It appears to be a defensive move to protect the company from losing out on the revenue generated by adaptations based on its work. You’ll recall that Dota began life as a fan-made custom map for Warcraft 3, and then transitioned into a multi-billion dollar genre all its own. The new language effectively means, as PC Gamer puts it, that all of your Warcraft 3: Reforged custom game modes belong to Blizzard, and that rubs the community the wrong way.
