Afaik, it's just a translation of the main campaign over to the improvements of the later expansions. What that entails, however, is a mystery, but I doubt it's a complete overhaul or redoing of the missions.Mayhap with less base-building and more party-adventuring? One can dream, after all.
All of Spellforce 3 is worth buying. Maybe all of Spellforce period, but that's more contentious. 3 is easily the best of the lot, even if a bit more standard than the others. As for who gets what, we don't know. At least I don't see any info in the trailer.
So the base game is worth buying, and buyers will get a free upgrade on Steam to the Reforged version?
Are all the expansions worth buying too?
It's actually more akin to Warcraft 3 than to Dawn of War. I wouldn't say it's dumbed down, not any more than Spellforce 2 was already. I'd say the RPG part is better in 3. Spellforce 3 actually tried to have a competitive scene and some fairly serious tournaments were held, but I don't know if that went anywhere. The RTS mechanics aren't as fleshed out as in Warcraft 3, so that part is mushy and not very well realized. People here like it because it's an expansive RPG with 3 loooong campaigns, surprisingly well-written companions, gorgeous graphics (seriously, these are the prettiest 3D maps I've ever seen), it's a prequel to a cult classic and you get excited by how well they've implemented previous famous characters and races, and it's not terrible gameplay-wise.
They confirmed that this Reforged version is basically the polish and new mechanics of the lastest expansions ported back to game 1.
Think about playing Warhammer 1 (Spellforce 3) vs playing Warhammer 1 faction in Warhammer 2 (Spellforce 3 Reforced)
It is aHmm so they are finally fulfilling their promise, being waiting for that.
Haven't play the newest orc expansion yet, maybe will play it when the reforged version comes out.
My pc is too shit to play Spellforce 3, may be I'll upgrade it in spring and check it out by then.
Sure, tell me about it.LOL You don't need any new powerful RTX GPUs to play SP3 on highest settings. It runs perfectly fine on any mid end machines.
Is this a reference to Warcraft 3: Reforged? Spellforce 3 will get Reforced update on December 7th, coincide with console release:
A bit unrelated, but the next project from Spellforce dev is a Top-Down ARPG name Minerva.
Here hoping it is a fantasy game based on Greece myth, this kind of setting is criminally underused imo.
