Prequels are new movies, they don’t have to use yoda puppet.
If you are remastering Star Wars, no one wants to see CG Yoda in there.
If we are making a new Warcraft game, then yes we want new cutscenes. Warcraft 3 Reforged is NOT a new game.

Here is the problem with your argument
You personally want cutscenes, but you know you have no power to change anything. So instead of voicing your individual opinion, you say ‘People like cutscenes’ or ‘Everyone likes cutscenes’ to make your own opinion sound greater than your own voice.
But you are no representative here. You already know the majority have spoken on this matter. You know that ‘everyone’ does not like the new cutscenes.
It’s really up to you to decide to accept this truth or continue pretending that whatever you complain about will change anything. All you are doing is showing how much of a sore loser you are, how much of a manchild you choose to be.
Take some time to mature yourself and your thoughts. It’s not easy not getting what you expect, but you will find no solice here.

If you like something not because it objectivly good and better,but only because you grow up with it and prefer it to something new - that’s not an argument,that’s a psychology problem called Baby duck syndrome (Hope you know what it means,if not - I can explain)
And some purists are nothing more than a Baby Ducks
Ducks will always say that something from their past (No matter if it’s a kids show,book,videogame or movie) is automatically perfect and have no issues,while everything that came out lately is “Horrible! It Ruined everything from the original! It doesn’t look like what I used to so I’m gonna hate it!”
And only a real,true fan can say “Wow…This thing has problems I’ve never noticed before…I quess the new one is actually better in some way!”
If you want something objectively better, then Warcraft 3 isn’t for you.
- It is not a new game
- It is not an objectively modern game
- The gameplay has not been modernized whatsoever
- The lore is not being modernized or canonized to WoW standards
- The voices are the original
If you are going to be complaining about baby duck syndrome, you shouldn’t be in the baby duck forums waiting for the baby duck game. Wake up and smell the baby ducks.
Who goes to the baby duck farm to complain about the baby ducks? Do you really want to be that guy?

People need to be a Humans,Not a ducks,and wish this game only good things. Not a regression of what it was
We are wishing it good things. That’s why it isn’t being bombarded with needless changes.
There is a very clear proverb on this - If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
And it’s pretty clear from the some of the things that have changed, they are objectively bad changes. Look at the Hippogryph. I wish for good things and I do hope they revert this to the original design. That is a regression of what it was, and what it always should be.

The problem is - It is broken,a lot,accept it
The problem is - It is broken,a lot,accept it
Yes, so they should spend their time fixing things that are broken. Matchmaking, frame loss, net connectivity, custom games, animations, etc.
The original cutscenes are not broken. The original voicing is not broken.
Those do not need fixing. They should be spending their time on what is important - making the game playable and optimized.
It’s all that needs to be said here.

Name me few real arguments why lifeless machinimas aren’t broken way of storytelling?
Because ‘lifeless’ is an opinion and opinions can’t be broken.
You can tell a story with a single picture. That single picture could be considered ‘lifeless’, but its method of storytelling is not broken.
Did you play the original WC3? Did you not understand the story? If you couldn’t understand the story then that’s your own lack of understanding the medium. Just like if you looked at the Mona Lisa and said ‘so lifeless’, that is your opinion and not a case of having any lack of expression.
And if you did understand the story, then it’s not broken at all. If you are not satisfied with the medium, that is a different story - that is personal preference, and nothing about that implies anything is broken that needs fixing.

It is broken for a new audience - It makes no sence why the story should be told by two or three models with lifeless default animations instead of something emotional and modern.
I’ve played W3 and this way of cutscenes was good back in the day for a low poly models,but not for the Highly detailed HD models

I could show this game to my wife who has never played WC3, and she would understand the story just fine.

Understand,but don’t feel emotional connection.

Sure she would. The Arthas story is strong enough on its own to provide that emotional connection.
Many people already have that connection from playing the original, and it did not have good cutscenes, right?

Times Changed,The standarts are high. Not only models should be remastered,but also the way the story is told. Especially when this story is a part of something bigger,and needs to be one with it
If times change then why remake an old game?
Tell me, why is Warcraft 3 not on the SC2 engine with better pathing, with talent systems and new abilities from Heroes of the Storm, with new races and unlimited unit selection?
What part of Reforged is telling you this is a ‘Times change’ type of game? The new graphics?

Many people who grew up with this game and didn’t had better graphics
Having old cutscenes with OLD models is good
But new ones with old style is just…Horrible
