As much as I hate to say it - Servers should have seasonal resets

That’s not logic. You need to offer an argument to expect a counterargument, and all you’ve done is repeated, over and over, that it “has to” happen because everyone should find the idea of unchanging servers horrifying.

Neither “silly” nor “wonky” is an argument. If you have anything other than “morepigs need change because they do!” I’d suggest you offer it.

You are definitely ignorant and crazy if you believe resetting servers is a good idea.

I personally think you are trolling at this point.

no one can be so dumb as to think everyone would be ready to reset in 2 years. If ever.

The next time Blizzard opens a fresh server they should have an auction for all the popular names.

“Frostitute: Bidding starts at $20 bucks.”

That’s nice. If you ever feel like offering an argument, feel free. Until you do, don’t complain that no one’s countering your nonexistent argument or treating your assertions with the respect you think they deserve.

Also, i dont think classic’s existence is to “preserve history”. It’s to go back to the version of the game that people love the most, i dont think anybody would be against 1.13 if it stayed in the spirit of classic, much like OSRS does. Classic doesnt have to be stuck in 1.12 for eternity, a lot of people would like to see new classic stuff after nax, again as long as it stays within vanillas design philosophy. I know i sure would

Naxx launched - June 20th 2006
TBC Pre-patch - December 5th 2006 (5 months 15 days after Naxx launched)
TBC Launch - January 16th 2007 (6 months 27 days after Naxx launched)

Why do so many people here think Classic will last forever and not become a bloated mess without any resets to keep the experience fresh?

I know MMO players get attached to their characters, but preserving Classic is the point here, and what will preserve Classic the absolute best way?

How can people not understand that if servers are just left to rot, that they will become a bloated mess? Gear wise, economy wise, player retention wise, etc. AGAIN, I don’t even like resets and starting over in MMOs either, but I just can’t see how Classic will survive in the LONG-TERM without it.

It would be nice if something like this wasn’t required, but I just can’t imagine how Classic will stay healthy without seasonal resets. If you can tell me why I am wrong in thinking that, let me know why I am wrong to think this.

are you just gonna keep repeating yourself to try to make people agree with your terrible idea?

I answered this already! people still like the Mona Lisa how many years later? Just because you can’t see it happening doesn’t make you right just ignorant of taste or how art is appreciated and consumed!

That analogy doesn’t make sense here at all.

What happens to raiding when everyone is geared out in full tier 3 after years of gear farming?

What happens to the economy when everyone has tons of gold after years of gold farming?

What happens to the classic experience when everyone has a max level character of every class?

What happens to the community when everyone has everything and everything starts losing its novelty?

I’m interested to know why you guys think that is going to be a better experience than having seasonal resets every 1 or 2 years.

I just can’t see how WoW Classic survives in the long-term without season resets.

No. Go back to retail.

so 1% of the population even set foot into naxx after 5 months and you are worried about saturation of t3 gear?

I think what may happen is essentially a large enough group of people will become geared such that getting a gear run will become trivially easy. In essence, once you hit 60 you’re basically done with the game. The amount of gold on the server should also continue to increase over time such that it deprecates.

We’re talking about a game that will never end potentially, in which case the servers will become unbalanced and break at some point. The question is just when that point will be.

After people are done with nax, theres 2 options:

1.13: New content post nax for classic, which is what i and im sure a majority of the playerbase wants

or

Burning Crusade: I’d prefer them make BC its own separate thing if they go that route because 1.13 would be far more interesting and in my opinion better for the game.

Read some of the replies to your post before you repeat your OP over and over again please

None of those options have anything to do with preserving Classic.

Adding new content to Classic is not preserving Classic.

Adding TBC servers has nothing to do with preserving Classic.

The vast majority of players never played in naxx, or raided much for that matter. why? because vanilla takes time to savor and tbc was sort of rushed out. Resets should never be a thing, fresh servers is a maybe.

I do think there should be a set of realms with regular resets. As long as those realms are clearly labeled before hand so anyone playing on them knows what they’re getting.

This is a large part of what I am talking about.

It seems people want something to live forever without thinking of the negative consequences of it living forever.

no one is stopping you from deleting your character every 2 years. go for it

Seasonal resets as a regular thing should not and should never be introduced to this game, ever.

A specific server (or pair of servers) dedicated to seasons and resets, on the other hand, would be hype af. I would gladly opt in to a specific realm that did this. That sounds like tons of fun. Just, please, not all of the game. Nobody thinks that’s a good idea.
