WoW Classic is a threat to our community?
" EXACTLY. Having played Vanilla WoW back in the day, I don't think most people are going to stay with it. Too many conveniences that they have today which aren't available w/Vanilla (ie. no mounts, slow mounts, ground only even at high levels, no flying, no pet battles, insane amounts of grinding, raids that take a gabillion years to clear with very meager rewards etc etc) About the only thing Vanilla excelled at vs Today is in PvP. And that's mostly because WoW's current PvP is broken in about every way. Now Lost Ark, coming out next year; yeah...that could be a real threat.... WoW + Diablo + Anime = Dammmnnnn!

What is so hard about showing some respect to the games that made gaming big? To a company that put esports on the map? i don't get it. "[Removed by Support]". Yeah. So edgy, it is beyond me.
Meanwhile, a true giant like cdpr salutes Hearthstone, tips their hats to guerilla games and even mentioned a shiny little game like banner saga. True gamers around here. smh. The Sirus fight is a disgrace. Last edited by Matthew_GGG#0000 on Aug 21, 2019, 11:39:33 PM

" I was joking. Just joking. All I was doing in that comment was to spark some laughter. Don't take things so serious.

" that's what's going to happen. I've tried going back to some old games before because I would get that nostalgic feeling and it always wears off pretty quick. |

" It will have longevity until the naxx patch comes out than vanilla wow dies. I have seen it happen time and time again. The game is amazing still today, i advise you to give it a try. You have to remember to chase and catch your dreams, because if you don't, your imagination will live in empty spaces, and that's nowhere land.

Part of the community wants the old WoW classic experience with all its quirks like:
- way slower leveling experience (mounts at lvl 40,) - slower grinding, because less rep granted - less epics - longer and more annyoing dungeon experience (because there wwas no Dungeon Finder back then) - less solo friendly classes than todays retail version People get what they demanded. And those are likely to stay longer than the bandwagon jumpers, which only heard of Classic because of its recent hype & growing popularity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6UibPTTNSs Some streamers with past WoW experience like Alk,Quin,Raiz and Mathil will try it for sure. Masterpiece of 3.16 lore

Played vanilla WoW and loved it for it's time.
I think the main reason I won't be going back is it's just not going to be the same. No matter what they do they will not be able to replicate the community from Vanilla. Players are different now. |
