They've stated they're hiring a completely new team for this project, so nothing in the current game will be affected!Quiv wrote:I am in 10,000% agreement with this. I know the private servers had their own following, so I don't deny there is some demand for this. However I want Classic to come back and preserve that experience exactly (minus stuff like lag etc). Bring back all the grinds and lose all the quality of life stuff we have come so accustomed to. I just don't think its going to be near as popular (long term) as its being made to be. I'll lose a lot of respect if they compromise and keep stuff like BOA or collections etc. Get those bandages ready boys, we gotta heal during Razorgore again!Valnaaros wrote:Same. There are a lot of things that I do not like about Classic (having played since launch). I feel that as Classic servers get closer to launching and people start playing them, the rose-tinted glasses will fade away and they'll begin to see just how bad it was in a lot of ways.
What worries me is it is clearly a large endeavor, and I hope resources don't get taken from the main game in order to develop this.
(also I'm in agreement, I can't wait for people to realize how terrible it was and take off their rose-coloured glasses I'm not saying I won't play it but I know what to expect, I feel a lot of people don't remember how many QoL improvements we rely on now. I dabbled in one of the private servers once, just to see the old world again. It's a long, slow, dull drag to level and everything hurts and you feel powerless. It'll be a fun challenge that's for sure, but not something I'll want to spend a lot of time in.)
