I haven’t seen the classic auction house in a while, I thought they put the retail auction house into classic? I genuinely believe the old auction house is objectively worse than the retail auction house in performance, ease of use and buying items you need in bulk without having to individually buy them. If anyone knows why it’s the old AH I’d love to know I could be misremembering but it’s a change I’d love to see.
No objective truth here, I think it’s the other way around. The “sort after bid/buyout functions” were added to the Classic AH. It might be this you’re remembering.
They did in Wrath Classic, but not in TBC Classic.
Unfortunately the devs are non-existent for Anniversary and we haven’t even seen the AH throttling improvements they made in TBC Classic this time around.
The interesting thing about “objective” truth or anything is that it is subjective to whatever the objectives are. Like, one could argue that class balance is “objectively bad” with the objective of having all classes have DPS output performance that is precisely the same, which is a subjective objective (as in, that’s someone’s preference).
Basically, whenever someone states something is objective, their framework for measuring it, and of course goals, should be questioned.
