Yeah, I agree with you :slight_smile:

62

if the same were to be done for tbc then we would have 4 populated servers and the opportunityfor a real era community to develop across expansions

I’d like to see that, but also a way to upgrade Classic Era to TBC Classic Era, if I wanted.

64

yeah like clone ur classic era character onto tbc era servers that could be great. they could just like snapshot ur character at the time of purchase then u could bring it over

65

Blizzard does not hate TBC Classic Alphasmoke; he just hates you.

Sorry, I watched Band of Brothers again over the weekend.

Crusade gets 0 realms while classic and wrath get far more than needed.

“Because tbc is dead and no one likes tbc. The people playing tbc classic are just waiting for wrath.”
-Classic is also dead but it still has all its realms. Your explanation doesn’t fit.

Its the least popular of the 3 when it has come to private servers over time.

I wouldn’t mind additional arena seasons though but I know there is already a really small community on the current realms I cant imagine how often you would see “Unavailable” when you Q’d on an era realm lol.

The whole thing is pretty kind-boggling. How much extra effort/time/money does it really take to keep these servers running? I mean Guild Wars 1 is still online for crying out loud.

I meant tbc era. I was referring to classic era. You cant have a seasonal realm without an era realm. Who would play on a seasonal realm if you knew your characters have no permanence?

Before 2019, the most popular non-official wow server was vanilla. Next was wotlk. Tbc, cata, mop or others were low pop less than a thousand.

Because tbc is dead and no one likes tbc. The people playing tbc classic are just waiting for wrath.

If we could open both clients (era + tbcc) at the same time. Era wouldnt be as “dead” and some would actually play on it. That I can only open one client is just a failure in itself.

Truth bomb right there

That is the entire point of the seasonal realm. Your character having no permanence and having to reset.

It is something that comes from games like PoE that reset you with the season.

EDIT:

Realistically seasonal realms would be better served on a version of WoW where achievements are cross-account. That way you get like a mount, title, pet, or some cosmetics for the previous seasons you participated in.

The merges made were done by timezone and PvE/PvP classification, yet not even this was followed through completely. For whatever reason the eastern pvp cluster was bisected. What’s more is that the chosen realm connections were formulated before prepatch. While I must give Blizzard credit for being proactive in anticipating the need for these merges, it likely would have been more prudent of them to observe the state of each realm’s population after tbcc launch and then gauge where the links aught to be made.

I don’t think 1 singular TBC server would hurt. The fact that they are not doing that tells me that they don’t plan on having permanently persisting realms for anything beyond vanilla.

Agreed, and that’s really not a promising thought.
