Why is convenience and quick game-play better?

The statement about alts, and the statement about you were separate. Thus the large chunk of empty space between them…

ESL?

A single reply, and the fact that even though they were separate: it could be a lead-on.

Unless you understand English.

Which English? There is more than one version of “English”.

Its better for them because they are entitled spoiled adults.
They say I am 80 years old now I want everything my way or I have a family and I am entitled not to play long because I have to spend time with them.

Very snobbish people, a game should remain the same game for ever like wc3 even though there have been updates changing the meta and so on.

An MMO can’t afford to do that.

Oh then why are we getting a remake of classic?
Because people like playing old.

You can get a version of the older version of the game the same forever, but you can’t keep the main version of the game the same forever.

Ok I wasn’t even talking about mmos I was talking about games in general like wc3.

Yes. Games in GENERAL. Which INCLUDES MMOs.

Oh really then why are we getting an older version then, oh wait its because people like older games, and expansions are for progression.

70% of the time: it’s nostalgia. It’s not that they like the older version of a game because its better than the current gameplay wise. They like it because their child version of them liked it.

OK, captain semantics dancer… You tell me the version of English where paragraphs are the same thought.

Well generally speaking that depends on what the ‘thought’ is. A hard rule of paragraphs is that they are a self-contained unit that covers a single point or idea. This can be done with a single sentence, but it is preferable by most educational institutions to have at least four sentences in a paragraph.

Of course, this means new thoughts and ideas must go into a separate paragraph. Preferably after acknowledging that the previous paragraph has ended by separating the two and connecting them with some words that segue into the next paragraph. This is to help give your paragraph a sense of continuity while supporting your new topic sentence. Purdue writing has a great explanation on paragraphs for those just getting into college.

classic will be niche

Pop culture. Everyone has ADD. Just look at the music-whens the last time you heard a good guitar solo in pop music (besides Little Waynes ripping god like solo)?

Except it’s not. It’s what happens every day while analysts are looking through market research, in every industry.

Not really, Classic is a side niche project and as such you don’t see any marketing or promotion, it’s a museum piece, as the developers put it. It’s going to be much smaller than the enthusiasts on this forum predict. What’s popular is going to generate more revenue.

While yes, developers are trying to use trends to determine what’s the next big thing, as you can see that terrible game Fortnite blew up quickly for battle royale, and that is the reason that everyone is trying to make the next big thing, while trying to capitalize on the current market and “throw their own twist on it” like Apex Legends did to become a massively popular game as well.

But, mechanically, there are many many MMO’s that are decent enough to play, as good as retail, like GW2, FFXIV, Rift, ESO, heck even Aion yet people aren’t playing them because WoW is the original and “no one does it better,” even though WoW retail is dying itself. And after years of playing, WoW is what people know, even retail. IMO FFXIV’s story puts it over retail as a good MMO to play. You don’t have these “untapped markets” of MMO players which you’re implying simply because a few thousand people post on some forums. They’d find another game in that genre to play if they were that invested.

I’m not worried about retail, came back to try it out in February and used tokens to continue but I’m really only here for Classic.

Because time is a commodity and today’s human being in the USA has been programmed since birth to be obsessed with efficiency.

Salient point. I think they tried too hard to make “one size fits all” instead of recognizing that they have very different audiences.
