I would be wary of calling a game that doesn’t even exist yet a success. Will it be successful? Quite possibly. Will it wither as people realize their nostalgia can’t be satisfied? Also quite possible.

They should be able to coexist. Best case, incremental subs for blizzard drives the need for development. Likely case, some incremental subs but mainly a split between classic/retail.
Retailers likely see no difference outside of maybe emptier cities?
Classic probably jump back to retail during patch releases and blow through content and go back to classic. Which would be great for blizz metrics and would push them to continue down the classic progression path.
Or the nostalgia is not enough and retail just remains in its current glide path. Which is downward…

Bag space is not a petty issue though. Just because YOU find those particular QOL changes unimportant, does not mean others don’t
I still remember finally liberaring my bank storage after the appearance tab came out. I had close to 300g worth of soulbound items on my shaman alone that I was keeping for transmog purposes.
Again: unimportant to you doesn’t mean it’s bot important to someone else

I still would much rather see were Classic could go if they develop that. Before the Genie (FLYING) was ever let out of the bottle. I mean they wanted to more or less remove flying in the past so why not rewrite WoW’s history with Classic?
Believe me I like flying and I am not against having it but if the game was never developed for the need to have it in the first place I think I would be fine without it. Just as I am playing the Classic BETA right now. I just don’t miss it and I don’t feel the need for it.
Maybe I am one of the few or perhaps one of many but there is my opinion.
Man classic hasn’t even launched yet how can we call it a success so early?

Which wq do you like the most shorteye? If there’s a dynamic and challenging wq I haven’t found it. Would love to leverage your weeks of experience
Quests as a whole have never really been dynamic or challenging, so what exactly is your point?

Nostalgia will make the first few weeks huge for Classic. Even beyond that, I expect it will still retain a small hardcore of followers, mostly those who love endless grinds.
What success? Its just a closed beta. Yes, the streamers viewer numbers are good, but not any better than when bfa launched. Also, bfa is in a drought period waiting on the next update so what else are people gonna watch? I’m looking forward to playing it and hope it does well, but this is definitely a case of putting the cart before the horse.

Compared to BFA it’s not exactly hard to be successful

If and when it’s successful, like 6 months plus perhaps things may be looked at so far it’s nothing but a game on beta.
You guys keep saying this but I just don’t see it. I wish you would provide some proof other than some streamers trying to tell everyone it is bad.
Mer you’re coming in mid argument!!! But you’re right, there is literally no challenge in retail except for the few that take mythic raiding and deep m+ keys.
Classic provides challenge for everyone.

Retail is shallow
Classic isn’t
If retail was dead, there wouldn’t be classic.

I have no issue with Classic but the Classic fanboys are becoming a prime target for my hatred.

I disagree
People are mad cause they are jealous, why else would people be mad?
