The gaming department @ Microsoft actually seems competent and focused on long term. One can always hope.
Playing on a progression server would have been the better call then
I mean I do. I have a 70 troll rogue and a 64 draenei spriest on TBC servers. I have just been enjoying this specific character and my warrior alt a lot and will be sad to see them go. Parking them on my TBC servers feels nicer. Its prolly just some sort of psychology thing. Im not the biggest fan of TBC past leveling which is why i pretty much main SoM now.
edit: azeroth leveling is pretty dead last time i checked and i absolutely despise boosting.
Many players, myself included, donāt like seasonal servers for this very reason. It is the reason I chose not to play SoM.
would you mind explaining why? not everyone is weird like me. plenty of people want to move on to wrath. Influxes of new players are always good for servers imo
I donāt want to roll a toon in an MMORPG that I know will be deleted in 12 months, hence seasonal servers are not for me. These players that want wotlk are either ignorant or were deceived: SoM is seasonal not progression.
Ah i see what you mean. I thought you were talking about something different. thatās understandable. I like the idea of fresh/seasonal bc i enjoy the process of leveling thru vanilla. Have honestly done it several times fresh but the ādeletionā is still a tough pill to swallow. I will go thru the same stages of grief next season, if that even happens, cheers!
NO. You can go to classic, and thatās being generous.
After Blizz soaks everyone for every cent they can and the players realize that the Classics arent relevant, new content, Im predicting Era will be the place to be. At the very least, way more active.
So having your seasonal toons end up there might not be the worst thing. Also, looking ahead, they will probably provide options for people to play all three expacs.
Finally, many Classic players have asked what will happen at the end of the Season of Mastery, and hereās the answer. When Season of Mastery concludes, youāll have the option to permanently transfer your character to an existing Classic Era realm in your region. This free service will become available for a limited time at the conclusion of the season. Going back on what you said from the start. Terrible change dont do it.
This did not age well
At the time it was not going to happen and accurate.
But Blizzard decided to backpedal and change their already stated plans.
Gloat if you like but I feel for Era folks.
Blizz could jump on this but not on further connections for people that have been asking longer than SoM has been active.
