Now that BG3 is here, the supremely talented ‘Dev Team’ has no real reason to stay engaged with the Classic Project. Their dream game now exists in BG3.
Again hard disagree. The death of Class roles due to Homogenization of Classes, Class design was terrible, Talent trees removed. It was when Retail started and Classic Era WoW ended.
They needed to build on Cata Talent trees and add depth to them while removing the forcing of players into builds.
Cata was the start of play the Devs way instead of players having agency and in MOP it went full into it.
Actually MoP was where all the classes were at their best.
As for talent trees, ill take the MoP talent system over the bland and boring talents we have to take to get to the talents we actually want.
You have Era, you will always be welcome there.
Like you said Cata was when the design shifts started not MoP. That said MoP was an improvement on Cata so in terms of the new design it was a step up and out of the post Wrath expansions it’s up there, legion being the only debatably better one.
The talent tree changes were a non issue, the reality is that most people just use a cookie cutter build anyways and most of tree is just fluff abilities like -.1 second cast time. Ironically you actually got to make more genuine choices with the MoP trees when there wasn’t an obvious best choice.
Right the bad design started in Cata with how they did talent trees and forcing you into a spec and in MoP they killed Class design and took away choice.
Nope the death of WoW
We are talking about Classic + and MoP isn’t really WoW or Classic. It’s a different game.
If we want Classic + then Cata would be a great expansion that has a lot of potential in story and lore as well as the old game still in tact. However Classic + can also be done in TBC/Wrath. Just not after Cata.
With all this said. I have zero faith the current Activision can pull off Classic + since they haven’t made a good game in nearly a decade. They need a new team and lead Devs.
MoP is WoW and when they rerelease it will be classic also. Im really not interested in your personal opinion of what defines the 2.
The fact of the matter is that MoP was a great expansion, top 3. Only thing Vanilla outclasses it with is levelling and MAYBE professions.
That isn’t going to happen. It’s debatable if they will even do Cata. They definitely aren’t doing MoP. There is no player base for it.
It definitely wasn’t haha. It was a controversial expansion that divided the player base.
Now you are trolling.
If TBC got a rerelease and had a playerbase then MoP not only deserves a rerelease but it will certainly have a playerbase. Classic+ is far far more of a pipedream than Cata Classic or MoP Classic
Not trolling at all. You self admittedly hardly even played MoP cause youre soft enough of an individual to dislike a game because of a race. Its hard to take any of your opinions seriously tbh
Don’t ever mention TBC and MoP together. First off there was a huge desire for TBC one of the best expansions and a huge improvement from the Classic game.
They won’t do it because people aren’t interested in it. MoP is the worst expansion and also a controversial one. It’s not going to have a player base lol. They aren’t going to make a Classic version of it.
Sorry but TBC is trash in comparison.
You are allowed to have that personal opinion you just won’t find many to agree with you. There is no draw or market for MoP Classic lol. It will never happen. Keep in mind that Cata Classic might not happen.
I swear you just troll most of these threads. 
The talent trees in MoP added choice.
For example I’m looking at the feral tree in wrath right now and there’s only about 6 talents there that genuinely add something new or change something in a meaningful way. And most of those are essentially mandatory. I actually had significantly more actual choice in MoP than I did in wrath or Cata.
I mean TBC got rushed in Classic because it was trash.
Really link me the Talent trees in MoP or right… They were removed 
Sorry but there wasn’t ANY choice in MoP just bad Dev decisions being crammed down our throats.
Let me help you.
When there’s an obvious best choice you don’t really have a choice.
You aren’t helping me. My original points stand true that I made and I’ve continued to back them up. MoP was trash and the death of WoW. The last WoW expansion was Cata. MoP was the birth of Retail.
Now I’ve said all I can and no reason to waste more time going round and round. Good day.
I know I’m not helping you, you don’t understand the difference between clicking a lot of times vs actually making choices.
Imagine thinking that any talent in vanilla or tbc for warlock was better than kil’jaedens cunning.
Imagine thinking that anything in vanilla or tbc for a druid beats out symbiosis
Imagine thinking that anything in vanilla or tbc for mage beats out alter time
All because youre upset a couple classes got an interrupt, heroism and speed burst
Dude is clueless
There’s already titan rune dungeons and the raids in wotlk give buffed loot classic+ has already started, it would be stupid for blizz to not continue classic so long as there’s a generation of players that fulfill the needs for at least 1 mega server.
Its more a question of what do you expect to see as the next thing they add to the classic experience. Given how many people who play classic don’t care about the story and just want to game, I see the reception to cataclysm being more positive than how the original lore following population received it. In terms of gameplay elements cataclysm and mop have significantly more replayability than the first 3 releases of wow.
Or whining about class homogenization starting in Cata or MoP without realizing that making more classes viable at more things was literally a trend started in the class revamps of vanilla and continued into TBC.
