I’ve been gone for a while. Is Classic still alive?

its been taken over by bots and they control all the nodes in high level zones and the auction house, people buy gold and then give it back by buying all the consumes the bots farmed. pretty vicious cycle

You’ll find a lot of upset people on the forums, but the game is absolutely still alive and well

This isn’t every server or even the majority of servers.

Azuresong is pretty active, alliance side. Not sure of Horde.

Same as when classic first launched. At least on my server. Not much has changed. Queues went away. Bravo to Blizz for fixing that issue.

Judging from your avatar I would say your from the future not the past. Tell us what its like. We are all dying to know.

Depends on your definition of dead, if you think the bulk of the population raid logging is dead, then yeah, it’s dead.

So alive that when buffs drop they might expire before you can move again without getting dced.

I’m On Fairbanks It’s bot infested the whole world is Farmed 24/7 not a resource to be found. i still love the game been playing since vanilla launch. Its just depressing when you want to do professions. I would say the only available resource is leather.

There’s been a recent need for guild merging to keep raiding 40 mans as the overall population lowers slightly, at least on my server, but the game is still very much alive.

Stormwind is full every night on Grobb.

I recently went back to a character I had played in September/October of 2019, on Kurinnaxx, when Faerlina had long queues, and I had to wait hours to get log in.

It’s a mid-pop server, but I’ve found a really great guild, and it seems pretty easy to find groups of people. Unlike the higher pop servers, you tend to consistently run into the same people. I’m not sure if that’s why everyone seems so friendly and helpful, but I’ve been liking it a lot.

Faerlina is also pretty good though, imo… but I don’t tend to run into the same people over and over, like I do on Kurinnaxx. I’m actually planning to focus on gearing up for, and raiding Naxx on Kurinnaxx atm.

My Pally is on Fairbanks. I leveled there during phase 2, and really liked it, but as soon as transferred opened up, a lot of my friends (and guild) transferred off, and I went back to my Horde toons.
