Stop Making Content Exclusive to Classic

I don’t want to play Classic. I played the game actively since vanilla. I did that content. I don’t care to play Cataclysm again either. Just let me have the owl pet on my main account.
What advantage could possible exist for making it exclusive to Cata classic? Stop this, please! It’s anti-fun design.

Just let people who play the live game have the things on our main collection. So weird that you guys do this lol.

It is kinda stupid how many unique pets, mount, and transmog they’ve gotten so far

Semantics pet peeve: “cosmetic items” aren’t “content,” they’re just items.

That being said… they’ve made slightly different variations of the mounts for other Classics… so why not do the same with the pets?

I remember the buyers’ remorse after grabbing the dark portal transmog off the store.

I have to agree that “promoting classic” in this way feels icky to me. I don’t want to dogpile I just wanted to throw in that OP isn’t a crazy person complaining for no reason. There’s a real concern here: The modern game with modern quality of life is WoW’s best foot forward, and classic is a nostalgia high for those that miss it. It’s not a viable game for those with modern requirements of their gaming experience.

There shouldn’t be classic exclusive anything, not content or cosmetics. We in the modern day with modern standards for quality of life shouldn’t be pitched at to play a decade+ old version of the game that, as of cataclysm classic, we can play on our “forever characters” in the main game.

No shade to people that love classic. You do you, and at the same time there shouldn’t be anything you get that modern wow players don’t get. Classic is not a viable mode to pitch to people that don’t have an interest in classic.

Just my opinion.

There was a transmog set for Cata Classic?

No one is disagreeing with the OP, though? I made a silly semantics portion of my post, but I think we all agree that if they do variations of the mounts for both, they can do the same with the pets! :smiley:

I guess it makes sense to have content that would’ve been added back in classic to classic servers.

Specially when it comes to the narrative.

I liked that Nelf showing discontent against joining the Alliance.

Thanks for your engagement, it bumps the post, even if contrarian for no reason.

Yes they have done this before, they’re doing it again. It’s annoying and should stop. That’s what this thread is about.

Thanks for not reading my post. Maybe try again? :point_down:

:dracthyr_shrug:

Yes. I know. I addressed that. Can you read it, please?

Yes. I know. I addressed that. Can you read it, please?

I even said it twice:

Yeah except if we had it back in the day our live accounts would have it now.

Stop splitting our collection tab among multiple classic expansions! It sucks.

Well, not really. Thanks to Cata updating everything, would’ve been removed or retconned.

But, yea, it’d make sense to add to retail servers as well, if possible.

ah more engagement, delicious. Thank you.

Yeah no the issue is that they’re making exclusive content for temporary servers, and not for our main, live accounts, where 16 years of collections are compiled, so no, a recolor won’t serve.

And you’ve made several edits to a post about yourself, when we’re trying to talk about the issue to deliver feedback to the devs. Recolors? You still aren’t understanding the core issue. And yes i read what you said the first time, and understand what you wrote.

Maybe try again? The engagement is helpful to keep the thread up top, even if it means baiting a narcissist.

I know what the issue is. I addressed the issue.

I also never said anything about a recolor.

I’ll refer you to the Wrath Classic mount and the BC Classic mount— both of which we got variations for Retail that look nearly identical. That is what I’m talking about. Make the Retail version of the pets the same, only with better graphics.

Edit to add the example I mean, because you can’t tell the difference between these mounts, the Retail version is just more crisp in graphics. No reason that they can’t do the same with the pets so that everyone gets the pets:

Yeah you should… because you’re being combative against someone who is agreeing with you.

Are you okay? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Ah. So you’re just not going to understand that I’m agreeing with your thread and instead just try to insult me for no reason.

Fine. Thread muted. Good riddance to this conversation.

Omedon is an understander.

Clearly the only solution is to delete retail.

Great you’ve blocked the thread so we won’t hear from you again, can’t wait, but you aren’t agreeing with me. You’ve quoted yourself over and over saying you think there should be variations for live server players as well. As in, recolors.
We aren’t saying the same thing. You don’t agree with me, you’re proposing something worse. You think you’re saying the same thing and it’s concerning.

Are you okay?

Hard agree.

Furthermore, weren’t Classic players complaining about the ‘classic experience’ being tainted with things like this?

SO true. It should just all be additionally available on retail, as that is the full, live game that most of us play, and where our main collections are.

It just needs to stop.
