"get ready for a Classic Summer!"

Where is your American history. The Donner party is like the most famous act of people eating other people of all time.

I will be kiting him to stormwind on day 1 of being a 60 hunter.

I won’t get to play it because I have school… School and WoW don’t overlap well in my experience.

Pure jealousy. How sad it is to be so bitter about the game you love, that watching others be excited about theirs causes you strife.

Not even that… it’s them being bitter about other people being excited and hyped for a better version of the game they love.

Maybe this will not get deleted, but ive been playing Vanilla WoW recently on private,
and it is very fun. I never played the original, and now i get to see loch modan, stormwind before Cata, etc.

It is harder, slower, and more spontaneous group requiring than the super solo casual mode of my time in Legion and BFA.

I am a lowly lvl 12 priest, wanding my way through boars, spending time figuring out clues where to go, and enjoying no sharding…seeing the same people all day long.

Cities are not empty or spread thin. People are not flying so the PvP is at least on even ground. I look forward to my pvp rank. I look forward to mounts and knowing just how much worth it will be after the hours of running everywhere.

Mobs can be frustrating, but it makes you approach world PVE much like one giant open world dungeon of retail. My only gripe is that time to kill a pack vs. the time they respawn makes for sticky situations.

Plus, grinding through to the end of that dungeon and knowing you have to fight your way out HC style like in Phantasy Star or FF, gives you a real sense of fear and heightened situational awareness…always watch your back.

Hardly any hybrids, everyone has specific and extremely important roles. I love the skill trees. Reminds me of old D2.

I know the old world really well. Yet, now it feels massive and I’m visiting spots for grinding in a way that each area has a je ne sais quoi that does not exist in retail. I’m learning roads, homes, the names of NPCs, wheras retail is basically a drive by quest turn in hub.

Is it Shadowbringers?

Shadowbringers won’t be out yet in June (it’s July 2).

Grim Dawn: Forgotten Gods is end of March, which I’m planning to play, at least.

Ah, I thought it was June. I need to dust off my ffxiv sub again.

I have Grim Dawn, but never played it. Looks too much like Diablo/Path of Exile/Torchlight ETC. I don’t want to get invested in another ARPG :frowning:

It’s definitely the same genre as all of them. I think Grim Dawn is currently the best of the crop, but admittedly, I haven’t played Path of Exile for a while.

Only 87 days until “summer 2019”. Kinda late to have a meaningful beta to find and report bugs and then fix and retest said bugs. Are ya’ll going to have one of those faux betas for the purpose of generating hype or just skip the beta altogether?

If I recall correctly Vanilla WoW was pretty much a massive beta anyway, not having a beta and letting us work through all of those issues is part of what makes the Classic experience the true classic experience. :joy:

As a fellow Tally Resident, I second this. everything here is open to the public.

As far as the crazies, we receive a constant supply of crazy from all the other parts of the country, and world.

It is clear who they are talking to then, lol.

The micro-holiday calendar has a 3 month gap between July 31 and November 12, so it suggests that the release is planned for August. That would make the “classic summer” remark counterintuitive. Maybe it was pushed back already.
