Some first impressions of Warcraft 3, with the promise for a real review in a couple of days, popped up at Gamers Hell. They gave it an 8.5 score with this to sum it up:So, what has Blizzard done, here? Streamlining combat to a smaller force, making heroes an important part of the game, rebalancing the system for a more enjoyable gameplay experience. This is all well and good. I love the game. It's just plain fun. But in all honesty, Blizzard has failed. There is no innovation. Basically a brighty polished version of the original, Warcraft III is an evolutionary step, not a revolutionary one. Its still the same old formula, and I am a bit disappointed. |
