I know, I stated what I think should be done with SoD.
I know what they will do, though; the path of most profitable. Which will be to release TBC, Wrath, Cata, MoP, etc,etc but with the “SoD twist”, which even then, will just be tweaks to encounters (lol Deadmines raid??), tweaks to abilities (since we pretty much will have all the abilities that are added), and new crafting recipes.
Meanwhile, they’ll be tasked with re-releasing an expansion (probably be WoD at that point) and probably a new iteration of Hardcore (this time you can’t trade…but all crafted items are BoA; SELF-MADE!!). And/Or a “Classic Reforging of the Reforged” (now with Retail graphics!).
…welcome to the death throes of a company trying not to be dissolved after a buyout/merger.
Yep. Only happens in the Private Server scene…
