wait, so, two separate games, but to play the one, you will have to have the other installed, launch the same application, and you can not choose to pay for each game separately… sure, makes sense to me.

It might not be necessary to “have the other installed”, just to say. The Blizzard launcher will run the WOW Client, but just as an account with BfA and an account without BfA have subtle differences, WOW: Classic likely will. (When we played it as part of the BlizzCon virtual ticket, the splash screen was Classic, the version number was 1.13 instead of the modern client / WOW version. It’s not just log in and have it phase to a Classic world.)

NOTE: I don’t see that anyone linked to Ythisen’s actual response - so here:

Please reconsider your stance on retail/classic reward linking

This is something interesting but nothing decided or concrete on it. I would try to seperate in your mind retail and classic. Something you buy on retail shouldn’t give you something in Classic, or vice versa. The philosophy is pretty rock solid that they are separate gameplay wise. If you obtained the original CE pets you used those/can still use those in the live game you obtained it for. It is an interesting thought though, that to some that did have it, that was a part of their classic ex…

EDIT: And a little later in the same thread:

Please reconsider your stance on retail/classic reward linking

Honestly, I would have the expectation that you won’t get them in Classic just because you already own them. That license was to have them in the current game, which you still do. I can’t 100% say it will or won’t but it’s less than likely, meaning it’s not really something to argue about on the forums. Assume Retail and Classic are two separate games entirely (apart from the sub granting access to both) unless we announce otherwise.
