IDK who they’re talking to, because they’re clearly not playing the game. HC is not just an era thing. It’s still being played in cata, right now. It also would make much more sense to have the server go into tbc if we’re keeping the current hc. I love fresh servers and it’s cool we’re getting one either way, but with this set up it’s less hype
HC tbc / wotlk are basically what I called classic + before we were talking about classic +. The few changes we get 1-60 actually make the game feel fun in different ways with the same level of challenge. hc wotlk death average was still 15.
Wotlk HC is peak wow imo. I know that because I actually play the game.
That was actuaælly quite a good expansion for no-deaths only thing really bad was the non-remade NPC hunters that could one-shot even a normal player with aimed shot.
We literally have one of those in Vanilla as well. Vaelstrasz in BWL puts a debuff on you that when it expires you die. The way you get around it is by opening portals before the fight starts and whoever gets the debuff clicks on a portal.
Personally, i think it could work, but Blizzard would have to do a lot of recoding due to a lot of 1 shot, instant kill mechanics. Some of which are unpreventable.
Do i feel like it would be an amazing experience going from 1-70 as hardcore? Yes, absolutely i do. Especially with tbc being one of my most favorite expansions.
Blizzard would essentially have to hire people and invest time, money, and hours to make HC tbv viable… which will never happen. Look at SoD… it could have been so successful if they didnt stretch 1 team so thin with so many projects.
you think you do but you don’t
lots of mechanics in TBC will just randomly kill you. and tons of people will be here whining and begging for changes. it’s not gonna happen.
