If some of the OG creators of WoW were still there, I’d love some servers that were dedicated to each expansion with an annual reset back to intro quest greens. The best parts of WoW are initial start and progression. Fucking AI could probably handle content unlocks at this point. Could be fun.

doubt it will be anytime soon, definitely has to be Classic+ though at this point

Surely they have enough data from SOD now to do it, but every iteration of classic has came out between september and october iirc at the earliest

For a release, sure. But I could definitely see a Classic+ announcement with no release date information around the time TBC Classic releases.

classic died after WOTLK, cataclysm + is just the WoW TLP server.

They tried to hide the failure a bit by releasing SOD and fresh start Classic2 at the same time they rolled to cata so that the hit to subs was obfuscated a bit but shit is dead.

I am curious to see how the MoP revisit will go with the benefit of hindsight from the player base knowing how shit WoD was.

Raiding, PVP and Reforging. It really was an amazing expansion.

I am still convinced they removed reforging to get people to play longer. Having an odd assortment of what doesnt seem to fit gear made perfect with stat changes was a fun game.

After I was done doing 34 dailies and multiple 5 man dungeons each day it became my favorite expansion.

Playing a Monk in MoP when everyone thought the class was bad due to retards, while it was actually cracked in half insane, was a blast.

We got server first Ra-den on our first pull because my Brewmaster couldn't even die to his enrages.

I still reminisce about my Brewmaster being in the top spot for DPS meters. So much so that it looked like a break down of military budgets across the world with my Brewmaster doing more DPS than the rest of the raid combined, lol. Really enjoyed the raids in MOP, too. In some kind of masochistic bullshit way, I enjoyed the farming dailies.

DPS were so butthurt over vengeance it was never going to last, but it definitely caused a big bump in people playing tanks in the queues.

I think I still have the special reforge/gem/enchant calculator the monk community had to code for Rune of Re-origination in order to make sure every stat was as even as possible with Mastery very slightly higher, to fire off the universe-destroying Tiger-Eye Brews.

I know it's been a while since it was released but I don't recall anyone ever thinking Monks were bad at any point. I thought it was well know they are overpowered and broken as fuck since inception.

Top end players knew Brewmaster was fantastic, but the general population thought they were terrible glass tanks due to playing with people who didn't properly manage stagger.

WW monk was a mystery to most people since it had a complete mechanical overhaul each major patch through MoP.

I am neither an alcoholic nor somebody's girlfriend so did not play Healer spec.

The MoP remix server was an absolute blast to me. Getting incremental power increases daily with no possible limit was game breakingly fun. They are working on a Legion one, and I'll definitely check it out.

It always bums me out that Legion basically decided at the end to the xpac to nix the only interesting WoW mechanic in over a decade (the artifact weapons). I get you need to have breathing room in new xpacs, but they really tossed aside what I thought was a really cool mechanic. But that's a shitload of expansions into the game; if Classic is only touching MoP soon, everyone has to slog through WoD (which while it started cool ended f'n poorly) before Legion gets put out, and that could be like 4+ years away.

Anyway.

WoD classic probably won't be bad. What sucked about WoD is it had 1 year of content stuck in like what a 2.5 year cycle? I look forward to the revisionism that comes out of people actually playing the damn thing.

With Cata and beyond being 1 year per expansion WoD will probably feel fucking great. The content in WoD was peak, like the raids were probably the best they ever released but we were stuck on them for too long. Only having to do each for 3 months will probably feel too short if anything with garrisons and dailies and shit.

WoD will feel a lot better if they allow you to unlock flying right away.

The no flying shit was terrible.

The only redeeming factor about WoD was becoming fabulously wealthy for like 15 minutes of mission table clicking on your alt army each day. I've been coasting off that hoard for years.
