I would not describe myself as a pro gamer or expert (I fell in love with WC3 as I’m sure many people did when it was initially released) but “hard” difficulty is about as challenging as watching paint dry.
At this point I’m playing the game because of my love for the classic RoC and TFT, not because of shiny new models.
Serious question; Did anyone who loved or appreciated the classic actually manage and oversee the creation of reforged? Anyone who is/was a active player in the community would see from a mile away how downright damaging the decision was to remove so many features (such as tuning down the difficulty and removing custom campaigns to name a couple)
and then as if it couldn’t get worse, to force those downgrades (call it what you will, they are downgrades IMO) on everybody.
I think I would have paid you £30 - £50 to simply back away and leave the classic alone.
