And yet here you are once again, carrying on in the same vein, except now you are wall of no-ing those who actually played classic and prefer the earlier AV, which you have zero experience of.
Blizzards intention with this entire release is to please the largest amount of people as possible while simultaneously spending the least amount of money as possible. What they will accomplish is exactly what they have accomplished with retail, they will piss off more people than they please and the game will be a more stable private server where nothing is actually authentic to the vanilla experience.
Can’t wait for the entire “this is cool but this is what it was actually like in vanilla “ thing to happen
You are right about it being called classic. It isn’t called “this is 1.12 WoW”
Classic doesn’t have to be limited to a single patch version of vanilla. It can be a a mash up of the best versions of content as it is considered by the majority of the playerbase.
Its highly likely that part of the big holes in the recreation of the old data, involves the part of AV that was updated in every single patch in Vanilla. They likely dont even have the old terrain and would have to recreate it.
