am I doing something wrong? when I launch wow classic I use the desktop icon that opens specifically era servers, click play and it launches me into not only not HC but a pve classic server. Why?
Same here 
Theres an option in the bnet launcher to select the gamemode you want to launch to. If you want doomhowl, set it to anniversary hardcore

I did that but it still takes me to anniversary pve or pvp. I think the game is bugged.
Make sure the DROP DOWN MENU is set to Anniversary Hardcore.
This happened to me until this week. I had it set to classic HC in the launcher but it would log me into the anniversary normal server at character creation.
This week it works and I go right to Doomhowl character select.
