Classic's success will forever change retail for the better

you don’t know that, they don’t post numbers anymore.

The only thing you have is a guess.

Which is pretty concerning on its own in my opinion.

More like old food. Even most streamers that played in classic admit they’ll eventually get bored of it as they’ve already done it. I played in classic and have no desire to commit to it. Only dabbling in it on occasion.

Its pretty safe bet that quite a few are excited for it otherwise Blizzard would not be sinking so much into it. Its getting more buzz then anything in BFA

Your a funny person i have zero interest in classic and same with the millions staying with WoW BFA.

There was massive forum hype for BfA, there was massive forum hype for Warlords, there’s been hype for any number of MMOs that were gonna kill WoW…

I mean, really, even just the hype for Warlords should be enough to demonstrate that you can’t trust these things.

I doubnt its that high any more. My guess is North America is only about 600k

ask the investors in this company what they think

They are people just like us… they put on their pants one leg at a time just like you do.

What Mechanics?

Thats most likely right.

The only thing devs might learn from Classic is the importance of a meaningful leveling experience.

Just lol if anyone thinks people will stick around for its “raid or die” drip feed loot system other than a niche audience.

ROFLMAO “millions” yeah so Blizzard is just waisting time on Classic because so very few are interested. You must be terrified that Classic is going to kill retail

That doesn’t make sense.

Subs are down, no one is playing, but they make all their money from the cash shop?

How does that make sense?

Oh wait it doesn’t

Most investors have no clue about the games really , all they want to hear is brand new games .

Lol its a little early to be calling Classic an overwhelming success but ok. How about we wait til the game is actually live.

Thats a oxymoron same game different time line and classic is funding my retail wow making that irrelevent.

I honestly want all the vanilla cult to go away, try that game again and realize how it was all about nostalgia.

Would retail be better if so much time wasn’t spent on classic?

i was being generous by saying up to 2 mil.

realistically its probably around 1 mil active subs
