The Return of Classic wow

Thirini-blackhand · January 4, 2019, 6:51am

Guys… this is happening. We all shall be back in the game we once loved! These forums need to start showing that again I hope classic wow AND retail does rather well together, for the future of Warcraft. I cannot wait to make random friends again in the world of warcraft and work towards a goal that will feel greatly rewarding to me (not saying retail does not have this, I’m sure it does! But it just isn’t my taste other then arena.) If anyone equally as excited for classic (new to it or not!) And plans on playing horde, I’ll share my battle tag, Cheers!

the return of something that has never been?

how can classic be returning when it never happened yet?

Phront-moon-guard · January 4, 2019, 11:23am

Classic refers to WoW without expansions.

Vhok-misha · January 4, 2019, 11:26am

no, classic is the remake that’s coming soon, vanilla is wow without expansions

Phront-moon-guard · January 4, 2019, 12:25pm

They’ve been used interchangeably ever since the Classic project was announced.

Only by you, and others who never played Vanilla. The real vets have always referred to Vanilla WoW as just that, Vanilla. Classic is a term brought about by the multitude of PSs that spawned when retail began to tank, and carried over when Blizz announced this project. #NoChanges

Bruh I played the heck out of vanilla, but vanilla was always just a fan title. Classic works just as well.

Speedyfoof-thrall · January 4, 2019, 1:12pm

Never said you didn’t play Vanilla. I said it was a term used by you, and people who never played Vanilla. No need for you to self validate. As for the term, well, you’re just wrong.

Phront-moon-guard · January 4, 2019, 1:12pm

I’m definitely not wrong. You’re not the word police, homie.

Speedyfoof-thrall · January 4, 2019, 1:15pm

This is one of those common sense crimes, you know, like stealing, where the police don’t need to be involved. You’re just the criminal that claims he was committing the crime for the “betterment of his family”. either way, you’re still in the wrong.

What a bizarre thing to get your jimmies rustled over.

Speedyfoof-thrall · January 4, 2019, 1:21pm

Dry spells are a mother.

Amangina-hyjal · January 4, 2019, 1:26pm

Semantics! Get your semantics here! Can’t argue on the internet without semantics!

Tricksyhyena-arathor · January 4, 2019, 1:27pm

Well this thread devolved into useless pedantry quite quickly.

Cheers, OP, glad you’re excited as so many of us are. See you in game, although I’ll be red to you!

Speedyfoof-thrall · January 4, 2019, 1:27pm

What about butt scratchers? Can I get a butt scratcher here?

Vhok-misha · January 4, 2019, 1:27pm

if i order a fried egg and they bring me a sunny side up and say its still an egg they are technically correct but i’ll still be upset.

I was an original beta tester and still have the same account to prove it. In my opinion WoW died for me in Cataclysm. I now play on a private Wotlk Server and will not be returning to a subscription with Blizz until they go back to the drawing board and and give us a Classic WotLK Server and it would be nice if they released new content with the original world intact (NO CATACLYSM) as in WotLK version 3.3.5. I would be very interested if they came with new xpac avoiding Cataclysm and taking us down a new path and story line that keeps the original content and feel of the game in play.

Amangina-hyjal · January 4, 2019, 2:07pm

sunny side up is a fried egg.

Narya-kirin-tor · January 4, 2019, 2:20pm

I played original-Classic. I’ve never played a private server. I’ve never called a version of WoW “vanilla” in my life, and I don’t plan to start now; from what I’ve seen, Brack used it as a dismissive insult.
