Anyone else upset that they are removing skeletons from the game?

We know them indeed. Which is why #nochanges is a thing. We don’t trust them anymore.

Throwing the baby out with the bathwater is never a smart solution.

Bring back the skeleton heaps!!!

There’s sooo many other things in life to worry about… No, this doesn’t concern me in the least. I’m just happy to have Classic!

It doesn’t bother me that much.

This is a pretty ironic comment, considering your name.

“More realistic” is irrelevant. It would be more realistic without dragons or magic…you’re conflating “realistic” with “authentic”.

It’s probably worth mentioning that those glorious mountains of bones at the gates of capitals and raid entrances were probably extremely rare on PVE realms…(RP was also PVE, right?).

I imagine a vast majority of pve-realm players don’t know what they’re missing.

Didn’t Omar say on the last classicast they looked specifically at this and found in the reference 1.12 they had already removed the long time skellies?

I think it is #nochanges but I was listening at work maybe I heard wrong.

Isn’t this kind of a petty thing? Seriously?

It was a “joke” by an unprofessional comedian. Yes it does seem “ironic” after considering both our names “Frostmouron”. Have a great day. :sunglasses:

Well now I feel like an idiot.

Touché!

You heard wrong. During TBC there were still piles of skeletons everywhere in pvp areas.

How do you PK a level 1 who uses an exploit to kill themselves in a city? Just wondering. LULW

Yup even as recent as MoP

It was mildly amusing to see them during tougher quests, but I find it hard to care.

So, you’re complainin’ about people complainin’, and define complainers as whiners, so you’re callin’ yourself a whiner too, because you are doin’ the same thing - complainin’? No offense, just callin’ it as I’m seein’ it.

I kinda feel these forums are here for us to express happiness ‘bout the game or somethin’ we’re not happy about. And you’re doin’ exactly that, just blamin’ others for doin’ the same thing you’re doin’ and callin’ them whiners for the very same thing you did. Mirror mirror.

I don’t care about it. However your question:

ANYONE ELSE UPSET THAT THEY ARE… X?

You can pretty much insert anything for X and someone is going to be upset about it.

Seemingly random change of something that was cool, for a weak reason. Really surprised quite frankly, they were so deadset on making as few as changes as possible, then slipped this one under the door at the last second. Wish they would reverse this.

So, you’re upset and complaining I’m complaining they’re complaining! A vicious cycle. Good thing we’re all free to express our feelings on posts and content here, including the unhappiness I have with whiners!

I too am excited to have a fake classic where all the fun memories of things I used to see in classic no longer exist.

Stumbling on skeletons and corpses of people that ragequit was a big part of the experience. You knew a big pvp battle happened here, or that there was a dangerous quest in the area and had to be careful. It was sort’ve like the messages you can see in DarkSouls but you had to put the clues together yourself.

Also it’s not just about crying about skeletons. It’s just yet another change forced on us adding a growing pile of nonsense that dilutes the real classic experience. For me that would be the modern reporting system being abused, in classic if someone was an ***hole you just had to put them on ignore. You couldn’t have 5 people right click them and silence their account. Or how when AV is released we’re getting the crappy dumbed down 1.12 version instead of the bigger one with all the NPCs and lootables.

Addon functionality is being revoked. That LFG addon was entirely possible for people to make back in classic if someone had the idea to do it. Or them removing addons that were part of the vanilla&BC experience, even lasting well into WotLK and watching Blizzard go back and make it impossible to use on classic servers.

At some point it’s just not classic anymore. You’re just playing an inferior version of the retail game with abilities that aren’t as fun and content that is less engaging with a bigger exp/gold grind to do anything in.

I think Bliz should have trolled the exploiters. So after you die, your corpse moves a random 20 yards. So you can’t get that name spelled out properly… That’s the way you deal with trolls.
