The only time they mentioned a museum was when the devs were first looking at doing classic and they jokingly said it belonged in a museum. People have twisted that small reference to a dev making a joke from an interview with ion. They have never once said classic is supposed to be a museum. I mean anyone who believes that with the changes we have had and out of control realm populations knows that’s not true.
Not true, show the quote.
In that article ion says “ It’s the origin of World of Warcraft’s story, and some of us said internally joking “it belongs to a museum.”
JOKING. He never seriously said classic was a museum piece and that it wouldn’t progress. Context matters.
