i hadn't looked at this before. because i just assumed it was something about "plans to begin planning wc4 scheduled for 2050"
But this looks really cool. By its self, the fact that they say they're gonna make campaigns makes me want to play it. cuz i freak'n love wc3 stories.
although i have a feeling fan made wc3 campaigns have the potential to be either awesome or really horribly terrible.

at first i thought it was clearly dead, cuz the "latest updates" cover was dated from 2012, but the twitter feed on the side was all current to the month/week, and all about things they were working on. so now im hopeful.

and since this is a sc2 game thats actually a wc3 game. i couldn't figure out where it should be filed, and just decided to put it in the worst place possible.

I see everyone is as excited about this as i am

honestly it doesnt look that great, just from the video i can see so many missing key ingredients to wc3, that i doubt theyll add, but i mean looks like it would be fun to play once or twice

I saw husky playing this a little while ago, im not motivated enough to find and post the video though.
It wasn't very exciting.

The redeming feture i had thought was going to be the campaign playthough, but ya know, its hard to make good story lines without cutscenes, and i good cutscenes are going to be really difficult to do without actual animated scenes or whatever blizzard uses.

Also, the models their using are kinda ugly, i think i liked wc3 models more than WoW models.
Which makes sense, since everything about wc3 has always been better than WoW.
