WarCraft III- Reign of Chaos Description:
WarCraft III: Reign of Chaos review: 5 stars (Game review) - When you get a new game, you will usually play or it for 3 days or if it's really good, maybe a month. However I think, Warcraft 3 can be one of the most addicting games of all. The only way you would not like this game is if you don't like challenging games or if you get bored easily. This game is an adventure; there are lots of battle's and violence. There is a whole story mode that can be won. The whole entire point of the game is to win battles and quests, the game is bloody, but not what you think. The blood looks very fake, so who ever is playing won't go crazy. You don't have to play Warcraft 1 or 2 to be able to play warcraft 3, it is your choice. The best part of the game I could play the whole entire game for a day if I could. I recommend this game for people to 11-20. 5 stars (This is one of the best strategy games EVER........) - Warcraft Three continues the old rivalry of Orks vs. Humans as the humans struggle to save their invaded lands from the Orkish Horde during Medival Times. Now that the last two invasions of the Orks are over, the Humans live for several years in peace, unaware that a massive invasion by a demonic force is just waiting for their chance to strike again.
This is where all the new and cool things in Warcraft 3, Reign of Chaos come into play......
We are now treated to two new races, both of whom get to fight the Orks and the Humans themselves, so basically it's just a big free for all. The other two races are the Undead [The most powerful group in the game besides maybe the Humans] and the Night Elves [The most resourceful group since they don't use up lumber at all]
While each race has their own strengths, they each have huge weaknesses. For example, the humans may have stronger buildings, but they take a huge amount of time building and upgrading. The Night Elves may have an abundance of lumber [As their peasants never cut down the trees] but in a small group of warriors they are relatively weak.
The Undead are extremely powerful, but you need to build their buildings on special converted groung named "Blight" which means you just can't place a building anywere and expect it to be constructed. And lastly the orks have really powerful land warriors, but their air force is lacking. I believe there is only one flying unit, all the other races have at least two, some even more.....
The main reason why Reign of Chaos is so different is the graphics and the food limit. The whole landscape is 3D material and you can zoom in and actually feel like you are looking at it from the ground perspective. In the first two Warcraft games you had an abundance of farms and troop numbers. In this game you are reduced to 90 food points. So about 3 groups of 12 units for your armies plus the peasants and you are done with your army....
But the reason I really like this game is the fact of the Heroes. Each race has their own. They are powerful leaders who can rally troops and give them extra protection as well as added damage strength when they attack. [Which can be useful in a battle] They are allowed to pick up items found all over the map. From items that heal your hero and your troops, to items that can raise the corpses of nearby skeletons and add to your army when it lookes like you are beaten. Some really cool things.
And lastly there are the creeps. Each map has some. From Harpies to Dragons, to Centaurs, to weird looking fish/frog creatures, to human bandits and rouge wizards, to giant spiders, to even trees that can attack and run after you. Plus Ogres and trolls which you can't control unless you
A. Posses them with your banshees if you are playing as Undead
or
B. Buying them at a mercenary camp. [For a hefty price though]
Be advised that this isn't even a FRACTION of what the new ideas are in this game. Each hero has their own spells with cool efects. There are multiple quests to level your Hero's experience points and make them more powerful, plus there is still the good old things such as ransacking a village and destroying your enemies. So many great things, one game that deserves your attention! 5 stars (Get this game, it is insanely awesome!!) - I love all video games especially PS2 games. I'm not usally attracted to computer games, but Warcraft is an exception. Fantasy games are the best and if you like them get this game! Ok, ok, the graphics could be better, but overall it is an awesome game! I always play battlenet non-stop for hours and hours! This game ROCKS!
