What bothers me the most about classic

The tanks that are heavily gated by mana and have to drink in between pulls most of the time? Might as well just tank as a warrior.

Sorry. This point still stands. I rather listen to people who work at and for Blizzard than some rando tater tot on the forums.

Well Classic is a lot more fun once you reach 50 plus. Once you start gaining all your talents and begin to get better gear it really shines. Many classes like Warrior are slow and warm up at higher levels. Like many of todays gamers some people did not have the attention span or the patience to finish what they started and missed out on a good time. I am not saying it is better because some agree it is and some say no.I know a fellow that hated classic. He told me many times he was about to quit. Then about level 48 he became addicted and started loving it. He plays an Enhance Shaman and he cannot get enough of it now that he has enough talents and better gear. That Windfury Proc fires him up!

So your point stands that you don’t have any proof to support your claims?

I guess just giving up and saying I’m right is an odd way to end our discussion, but it looks like you’ve finally accepted that the burden of proof is on you and that you aren’t able to support it.

Thanks I guess?

Oh I provided proof. Your only stance is “You’re wrong because I said so”. You haven’t provided anything to support your stance so I guess you not only have no proof but no point either. Sorry random #55062. Earnings call states the facts.

i can assure you, there are plenty of people who would prefer a library over a cinema.

not everyone is you.

Not actually, if there is legit news :wink:

I took a “wowcation”, when Red Dead Online Frontier Pursuits dropped around Oct 12, had a rollicking good time so far (Xbox One.) I’ve actually been away from Wow/the forums for a month!

But, seriously, if there is legit info where Blizzard posts a number regarding increased subscriptions/return subscriptions due to Classic:

Please post such info/citations.

Thank you !

If it is only “theory subbing”, from some third party sites, please even post that citation!

You keep retreating to that “oh darling” line, but I’m afraid it does nothing to strengthen your argument, darling.

Over 100 million people have come and gone from WoW. Does Classic even have 1% of that? How can you possibly make this claim? lmao.

Without any released numbers, no one knows how big a draw it really is. That said, if you can stand that toxic community, more power to you. It is almost hilarious how they tried to act like they were so welcoming and helpful prior to release. Just wander over and see how they respond to even the slightest hint of a whiff of an infinitesimally tiny complaint now.

Uh oh now you have done it. Somebody is going to link that stupid asmonfool video again. When more than likely he probably got a couple of his friends, or cultist followers to get on their cellphones, and act like some sort of videogame bigwigs to bump views on his youtube channel lol. And that info about Call of duty mobile was already on the internet, and he just threw that in there to make fun of it. I to believe everything I read, and hear on the interwebz, especially some wow addict streamer lol. I do hope this thread keeps going, because watching people at eachothers throats griping about classic, and retail is hilarious. The only thing that would be more entertaining is to get the nerd rager muh classic is better than retail, or muh retail is better than classic is to put them in a room together somewhere, and put a pc, or console system in the middle of that room, and watch them cat fight to see which videogame addict can get to that controller, or keyboard the fastest lol.

It actually became much less fun once i reached 60 and got profs to max and finished my pre BiS. Objetively there was nothing to do just weekly boring raids and a very unbalanced pvp.

Idk were you making a complaint to try to change the game to more like retail because I can see that happening if that’s the case

They don’t publish sub numbers but revenue or whatever is was was published. The month that classic came out there was nothing happening in retail and there was a large increase in revenue.
Maybe people suddenly resubbed for retail… It the logical thing happened and people came back for classic.
A blizzard employee is on the record saying 220% increase in sun numbers or whatever.

What else do you need? Fortunately facts don’t care if you believe in them or not they are still facts.

Was Blizzard specific about the percentage increase as actual subs or were they referring to time played metrics like MAUs? This would be a rather substantial difference.

Darling, just go to youtube and type in paladin tanking vanilla and your so called argument is debunked has been for 15 years. The fact is dear…a good player can tank on any of the tanking classes and out do a cookie cutter so so player.

Now be a dear and fetch me a cocktail.

Likewise. There are videos from Blizzard stating it’s their biggest sub growth. Unless you can provide proof that BFA outdid Classic in terms of sub growth you can take your emo My Chemical Romance named Demon Hunter and your illogical argument back to the trash heap where it belongs

Than BFA right now, probably. Its a crap expansion.
MoP and prior,however, is a blast to play.
I run new and existing characters up thru MOP every week just to avoid BFA.
I tried classic, its just too stinking sloggish for me, even though I like it better mechanically.

You’re aware that millenials were part of the player population back when the game launched, right? Some of them are in their 30s now.
