For example, Vigor, the main character during humans campaign, looks exactly like ol' man Arthas.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Unfortunately, Rising Kingdoms doesn't offer anything beyond colourful graphics and a gameplay system clearly inspired by warcraft 3.
9 of 99 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
On the other hand, I don't think the voice acting or the music has aged poorly.
7 of 99 sampled reviews raised it
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
Sure, there's a pretty cool fan-made patch available, but since it's mostly about the balance (which was pretty bad in the mint version), skirmishes and multiplayer, let's... just say that it's pretty hard to enjoy the campaigns here.
