I mean none of the games did good compared to their original counterparts…
Like vanilla wow is trash nowadays… The only redeeming aspect of vanilla is the world PVP.
Every raid is a joke it’s literally just Target dummies that most of you still find too hard.
You’re saying the player base got better but I don’t believe that.
Most of the people on this forum are trash at the game
Vanilla wow is trash? That’s why you as well as me and everyone else all over these forums are discussing it? 20 years after it’s initial release.
Mmos are inherently supposed to be social games. Inconvenience creates a need to interact. Conveniences gut the social elements .
Dual spec, rfd, flying, megaservers, ect.
Most modern mmos do not actually qualify as an mmo by the traditional design doctrine.
I said the only saving grace it has is the world PVP which is the only reason I’m playing it…
I also loved how you ignored everything else
You’re going to lose 90% of players once TBC drops, wonder why? Cuz vanilla is so good?
Kinda fax.
Will HUNKS be bringing out the big guns wsg team this fresh?
No they won’t.
That’s the plan
I actually think the complainers are too dense to know you can’t change spec in combat.
You apparently also change out of your PVP spec to holy fire me in a holy spec
Very true. All of the inconveniences and time sinks are what actually create a social-feeling game. Having the boat pull up at Menethil at 2AM and having a dozen folks jump off the boat and another dozen file onto it is so unique. Having to wait around, wander around, be inefficient, compete or cooperate for mobs. It makes you notice others and rely on them, forming little friendships or rivalries. At the end of the day, this is what makes classic great. The content and 20yo zones — the nostalgia aspect — is actually a much smaller reason why classic is successful imo. If they released retail content but made the game slow and sometimes painful again, I’d jump back into retail in a heartbeat for new content. But the instaqueue, no-speaking groups, anonymous nature of retail makes it soulless.
Dual spec hardly impacts that element of the game. If a change diminishes cooperation, competitiveness, or social necessity, then it should be reconsidered. But otherwise I have zero problem tweaking and changing classic to make it a living, breathing game. I don’t want to play in a museum.
These happen in classic as well.
Yah and everyone knows giving more people freedom to play different roles is just a terrible thing for the community. In vanilla everyone just loved being locked into 1 specific role and having to spend countless amounts of gold just to swap specs for 1 boss fights or a few bgs. You nailed it. It’s so vanilla to be miserable. Get out of here with that nonsense. You #nochanges crowd are so odd. Y’all choose the dumbest things to be upset about blizzard not changing but then the things that actually ruin classic y’all seem to keep quiet about.
You are right. Vanilla is meant to be inconvenient
All of us making such a commotion regarding this topic are NOT completely against dual spec. Maybe for Era yes of course but not for these Anniversary realms as I do think there are benefits to having dual spec. in Vanilla. What we ARE against is how it is implented where you don’t need to visit a city/resting area, inn, or your trainer in order to change to your other spec. If you don’t understand why this is a bad thing please refer to my explanation on this forum post:
My comment is number 178/179. Thanks.
Well, that ship has sailed – Dual Spec is here and you “I LIKE DUAL SPEC BUT I WANT USING IT TO BE MORE INCONVENIENT” clowncars lost this #SomeChanges debate.
Who’s worried about world first in a 20 year old game? Lmao
It literally has 0 effect on the difficulty, playability, or any other factor in the game. All it does is encourage people to play different specs. It also brings in players to very dead classic servers, which id imagine y’all would encourage. This isn’t game breaking changes. It won’t ruin classic and it won’t even change it in the slightest, outside of providing some comfortability for players to the different specs.
If you want to try more specs, then farm more gold. It wasnt even hard. But entitlement is how we got retail anyway.
Sure. Yeah. I mean cool. Whatever you say dude!
retail started in cata towards the end of wrath it became retail-lite
