No, because the game is itself broken. It has been broken since 2020 and remains broken. Here is video evidence of stuff this company WILL NEVER fix because they don’t freaking care compared to the userbase:
To even explain the problems above requires an attention span that would surpass the time corporate bosses would allow their underlings to even try to sit back and understand the code of the Warcraft 3 itself.
@Leviathan admitted in another thread, when I said they probably worked for Blizzard, that they actually worked as a contractor for a company affiliated with Blizzard so they don’t technically “work for Blizzard.” That’s the level of crap on this forum is that we have insiders here to tell us to just swallow and accept Reforged as the REPLACEMENT of the game and that we the players should go REINVENT the editor to maintain support for what we love AS IF that would fix the broken game itself.
Now, BlackSatyr I do not know if you write what you do here as a legitimate human or if you were a foreign trolling campaign to make me upset, but assuming you are the real thing you can see my struggle. I have been trying to see if I could make an open source emulator of what the Warcraft 3 once was – a computer program that uses their old art files and functions and feels almost the same – and it has been a long, long journey. Most of how this game was made is quickly becoming lost knowledge to the humans, like a form of book burning in ancient times. The people rich enough to care dont care because they can just use a modern game engine, and the people poor enough to enjoy the simplicity of the 2003 Frozen Throne editor where everything would “just work” are by definition the poor ones or the pressed for time ones so nobody is making what they want.
I don’t know how it gets any better. I don’t even know how to explain to anyone how my attempted game rewrite even works. Just publishing the code to try to free people isn’t enough because there isn’t anybody who would even want to read it, and I am not the best programmer in the world but just someone having fun who wishes Activision didn’t engage in the “book burning” of our game.
Leviathan and CaptainJack will probably respond and tell you to play Reforged. I mean, that’s fine, the versus mode seemed to work when I tried it the other night. But BlackSatyr if you are a real person and not a forum troll, and you are a old time World Editor user like me and you understand the sentiment I am trying to express, then I think you will know exactly how much attention to pay to the ever-present forum entities telling you to play Reforged because Reforged has gotten so good and polished.
