For a lot of reasons that had nothing to do with the game itself.
AH yes, classic andrews have the gall to say cata is not classic but then turn around and screech about classic+ lol. You cant make this stuff up

Cata wasnât fun and itâs revisionist history to claim that it was.
Cata Classic is an easy way to make sure nothing gets better. At least Classic + is a potentially better outcome. Both things have the same ending-- we can just leave when weâre done with it

Well no we donât see The thing that youâre missing yes cata was bad Back in the day But thatâs not to say everything was bad especially if you enjoyed pvp cata pvp was fun.
The world revamp thatâs opinion Hot take Give me cata Barons over vanilla barons any day of the millennia Vanilla baron sucks ya I said it Even people that love classic are normally one of two camps You love it or you hate it.
However either way Vanilla/ Classic,tbc,wrath Have played out nothing the way they have the first time around Not even remotely similar I might add To the point itâs even hard to call them the same game.
And thatâs assuming blizzard Doesnât decide to change anything I think thereâs a big argument to be had That whatever expansion they do going forward Is going to play out nothing the way it will the first time.
So no we donât know where the populations are going to be Or how itâs going to play out I would think if anything The start of wrath Proved that.
I mean if you donât want to play thatâs one thing But what iâm saying is donât judge something before it even comes out Because like it or not cata Will not play out the way it did the first time.
Why ? Simple its 2023 not 2012

Yes Iâm still waiting on you to provide Data. Iâve provided Data on my end.
Itâs not an opinion though. If you like Cata Iâm happy for you but it isnât popular. Itâs the same for liking a B rated movie. You can like it but that doesnât make it a good or popular movie.
Cata is that B rated movie. It has a very small cult following. If they waste time on Cata servers they will be dead just like the private ones. Iâm not sure how this doesnât make sense. There isnât some huge player base out there waiting to play Cata again. 
You say this but you could shut me up right now with even a tiny shred of evidence to support any of your silly claims. The fact is you canât because Cata isnât popular. We know this, Blizz know this, private servers know this. Itâs not a secret.
Classic + is the future of WoW. There is unlimited potential and Classic + is WoW 2 starting in the Classic Era of the game. New Classic + expansions with brand new story, classes, zones is what WoW needs. Retail isnât fixable and no one cares about expansions anymore. Classic + is that hard reboot for WoW.
As someone who loves Classic and realizes that Cata was the start of Retail I can also say what is stated above. I love WoW and for most the last WoW expansion was WotLK. Cata forward is a different game. It isnât WoW.
They should just put Retail on maintenance mode and focus on the future of WoW which is Classic +. You gotta call it at some point and Retail should of stopped making expansions awhile ago. It just doesnât work and hasnât worked in many years. You have to have a hard reset. You need WoW 2 akaâŚClassic +
This.
This comment is 100% accurate and irrefutable.
This thread should now close.

The only âclassicâ version of wow that has any sort of staying power is vanilla.
Wrath and TBC arent suited for perma-era-style servers
Arenât Wrath private servers some of the most successful? Vanilla is vanilla, but Wrath is a real sticking point for the community

nah I liked cata and would like to play it again
Iâm sorry you didnât like it, but others do so you shouldnât be gatekeeping fun from others.
But I would like blizzard to do perma fresh wrath servers eventually, would be nice.

Classic era is there for you to enjoy. Donât know what youâre whining about. Just play era till your eyes bleed, you and all the other 10,000 players.

Of course itâs the reason they did it. The reason we are all here. There is only Classic Era which ends at Wrath.
I donât know why people say this. Itâs actually immature and shows you are incapable of posting on the forums in a discussion.
YeaâŚI donât think you understand how many people play Classic. More people play Classic then Retail. Not many of them are gonna play Cata cause that is the start of Retail.
Classic + is the future of WoW.
Yes, please MAKE WLK GREAT FOREVER
Ahhhh cata, if it happens it happens. I donât see why they wonât keep servers for wrath tho, Cata was the last chapter of âClassicâ . We began with spanking Onyxia and ended it with clapping Death-Wing. Although if cata is really happening they should retcon everything they did with uldumâŚ
The only complaint I remember from Cataclysm was that some people found the heroics too hard at first and had to pay attention to the mechanics more closely. That shouldnât be a problem this many years later given that most of us are conditioned to the more complicated and nuanced dungeons that have come out since.
When Cataclysm Classic launches I suspect that most people will switch simply because they have grown bored of Wrath and are ready for different content. If WotLK servers were kept online I suspect theyâd grow very quiet quickly.

If their acquisition of Zenimax is any indication of things going forward in WoW that may not be the case. For example, over in Elder Scrolls Online Microsoft pushed Zenimax Online Studios to make some cash shop items, like mounts and costumes, available for in-game currency (endeavour points) we earn from doing dailies.
Overall, weâre pretty happy with Microsoftâs takeover of Elder Scrolls Online.
It is when half the raid speaks Spanish in discord and expects you to listen thru all of the Spanish and wait till they call something out in English.

You got anymore echo chamber buzz words for me bud?
You know what. You are right.
We should be able to walk up to a boss, right click them, then the loot tables comes up and we choose what loot we get. That would make the game infinitely better.
My bad for going against the grain. I forgot to eat my conform-tarts this morning.
