Gear can last a whole expansion.

Have not played current WoW in 10 years
Vanilla, BC and WOTLK are the only WoW as far as I’m concerned.

a few parts last the whole xpc

And I would say that Vanilla/Classic, is actually the best of the 3, and its not remotely close.

Then why is classic a ghost town? Take me for instance, I have no desire to return to classic or even try SoM.

Are you saying I represent the smallest of demographics that prefer BC/Lich to classic?

Because we all just put in HUGE time on Classic, and moved on.

I cannot remember my /played at the end, but it was high. I played nothing else over the life of the game.

Then we finished it, and moved on to TBC which we thought, would be as good as it was.

Blizzard made sure it wasnt, and well my raids dropping people and left and right now because of the mishandling of the servers.

Wrath, is not good. People are going to be stunned at how bad it flops, if it even gets released at this rate.

SoM, is just Classic, but with extra Blizzard attention.

#nochanges, kept Classic good. Blizzard attention, is really a double edged sword.

But how do you account for me. I’m enjoying BC more than classic.

Maybe you tried to force enhance in Classic I don’t know.

All personal preference. I really enjoyed classic 60, and I am also enjoying tbc classic. However, there are some very serious and glaring problems with the game design of tbc. I think the raiding is better in tbc, I think the slowing down of PvP is good in tbc, but I also think PvP/PvE gearing separate is bad. I think resilience as a stat is bad for the game. I think the idea of arenas in a game balanced around large group play is bad because of how impossible it is to balance. I also think the rating system is bad because gear discrepancies between competitive play is just too large of a factor in who wins. Gear should matter little in a hyper competitive ranked game mode. This is why arenas never really took off and became a big thing. And the biggest flaw of all, tbc completely invalidates all of the old world. All of the zones in classic 60 we’re filled with people of all levels even in the end by the time I was in full naxx gear. All that is nul and void with the release of tbc. And then tbc is nul and void with the release of wrath. I think it was really badly designed from this perspective.

That being said, I do enjoy tbc for what it is.
