Features of the FitGirl Repack for Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne

Part 5: Is It Legal? The Honest Answer

Let’s address the elephant in the room.

Community Stance: Most RTS players argue that since Blizzard abandoned the original client, preservation via repacks is ethically acceptable, provided you own a legitimate CD key from the past. But the Fitgirl repack does not check for this.

Our advice: If you love the game and want to support the developers, buy Warcraft III: Reforged on Battle.net (it’s often $10–$15). Then download the Fitgirl portable repack to actually play the classic version guilt-free, as you legally own a license to the software.
