Blizzard promised static museum that will stop progressing in phase 6.
Why are they even considering moving is to tbc? I didn’t sign up for tbc, I believed blizzards promise of static museum.
I have 12 toons, nochanges please. Leave classic classic.
Zoomers want to zoom in tbc, they can do that on tbc servers.
They want you to quit your game (classic), and play theirs (tbc and other expansions).
No, they don’t. If you want to keep playing in the Old World at level 60 forever, you can do that even after BC launches. BC does not change the Old World to any meaningful extent. All the content is still there.
At worst, you could argue that the classes/races change slightly due to talent tree revamps and adjustments to racial abilities. But these tend to be minor shifts - most of the changes to talent trees are at the top, not the bottom and the racial changes are minor at best.
What you seem to be saying is that you don’t want to be left alone by all the players progressing to new content. But you’re going to be left behind no matter what and you can’t seriously suggest that the majority be forced to play the content you’d prefer to play when they don’t want to do so.
Don’t worry about it. They are going to continue to have classic only servers.
People think they’re going to progress realms, but I doubt that’s the case. It’ll be a big shake up, but there will be a home for everyone.
They’re not zoomers. They’re modern WoW slaves. Do you expect them to not exalt their king god? All that has come before is perfection that must not be tampered with … except as the dev angels decide, because theirs is also perfection. Yes, they pretend to want to stop at WotLK or Cata or WoD, but really they want to be force progressed until it remerges with the modern version. Crazy right? And the crazier thing is that A-B refuses to admit that what they want and what Classic WoW only players want is different. A-B brought Classic WoW (supposedly) for us, but they cater 100% to the modern WoW slaves instead. Try to figure that one out.
…there wont be anymore content to progress through, people wont want to run the same raid over and over and over again once they are fully geared…no point in queueing bgs or ranking…the game will rapidly become stale and empty, queues will be huge and the population gone…THERE IS A REASON WHY private servers kept lauching fresh servers and old ones died…
guilds will leave one by one…there will be ahrdly anyone wanting to raid and the pvp queues will be huge and /or not pop at all.(all fo this has happened countless times on private servers believing its gona be any diferent here is being delusional and inexperienced in wow/classic)
there will be ZERO incentive for a video gamer to login…(“oh but its about being social etc…etc”…you cna go be social on fresh servers or other games live the larje majority of the population…
Considering wow is a themepark mmo, the persistent world doesnt have any meaning honestly
Sure you can! I’ll tell you how: Classic is the ONLY way to play Old World Pre-Deathwing Destruction. Good luck trying to play the Old World Pre-Deathwing Destruction in the Standard Game 
You’re free to think that, but you’re just wrong 
Here’s mine from your link
“We don’t want to break any hearts.”
Clearly each and every one of us will get our hearts desire. Blizzard promised.
Based on my original guild’s roster for the new xpac, this is frighteningly accurate.
They did no such thing. At all.
At most they said they’d have classic with a museum analogy…
That could EASILY mean just providing periodic fresh p1 servers, while transitioning older ones into tbc.
Nope they actually did say that. You crazy tbc people are like anti reality now.
All they said was that classic would be a museum piece, and I’m sure there will always be a handful of locked phase 6 servers.
They haven’t said anything about their plans for TBC classic so it’s entirely possible they’ll be upgrading existing servers and leaving a handful of fresh vanilla servers.
Tbc would be no changes. No classic only servers would be no changes.
Blizzard promised static museum that will stop progressing in phase 6.
Lol no they didn’t.
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.
hoarding gold and resources isn’t “progression”, at least be honest about what you’re angry about.
Doesn’t look like he’s the one mad about anything. He’s one of the rational people who knows we’re going to progress to tbc.
I read the OP twice and still don’t know what he’s talking about.
Is he worried that characters will be forced onto TBC servers? Because we 100% know that’s not going to happen. There WILL be pre-tbc servers for as long as Blizzard hosts servers. That’s literally the one thing we know beyond any shadow of a doubt.
What an over dramatic post. You are not going to lose your progress on any of your classic characters. They will make a classic museum server you can transfer to and they will also release fresh classic servers as well. You will enjoy the best of both worlds. As for people like me, who solely played classic with the hopes of a TBC classic release, will be taking my characters through the dark portal. I don’t see why you are so hyperbolic about the situation. I understand you love classic, and it’s an absolutely amazing game, but the majority of people will be going through the Dark Portal on their characters, and when TBC is finished the majority of players will take the zeppelins and boats to Northrend. That is the most likely direction that blizzard will take as it appeases everyone and continues to give customers incentive to subscribe, re-subscribe, and maintain current subscriptions. It’s all about the $$$.
I feel like I need to wear a fedora just to read this.
I love wow as much as the next guy but yall are treating this like a civil rights movement.
Holy crap no one is deleting your identity. Just breathe
