There you go. I countered all your points. Do you have any other reasons? I have a feeling it would be hard for you to come up with anything else until Madseason releases a new video.
Maybe for one time in your life have thoughts of your own.
The fact: Classic was financially successful, doubling wow’s subscriber count in the financial quarter of 2019 that classic wow released in. This is documented through their recorded earnings call.
The opinion: This shows that there is a large demand for a version of WoW that differs significantly from retail. What differentiates retail from classic are the multitude of changes that have been made over the years that have altered the game in a direction of accessibility, instant gratifications, appealing to all types of players and increased monetisation. The boost falls under several of those categories, therefore it is in direct contradiction to the initial purpose and appeal of the wow classic product.
The opinion is not THE fact, but the fact, in part, substantiates the opinion.
Give me #s proving that boosts will be detrimental to the experience. Give me hard facts showing your proof. Otherwise i can pull the same crap like this.
Based on the success we saw of a classic wow mode with changes implemented it stands to reason that more changes would also be successful. Changes like boosts.
See? i can claim my opinion based on fact is a fact too. Doesnt make your statement a fact
This thread is a copy of a thread I wrote on the EU forums that was posted a month before madseason’s video. My opinions are mine and mine alone.
Ironically, I’ve heard this repeated so many times that it is no longer original. Maybe you should try your own stuff.
Very arrogant to assume considering you didn’t even give me time to respond. I’m getting to it.
Yes, I don’t have the link at hand but you can easily go and look at the earnings call from the financial quarter that classic wow released in during 2019. There’s also many videos covering the topic. One from bellular springs to mind.
Why else would there be a need to have 2 different versions of the game? If they were the same, they would not both need to exist. That’s a logical fact.
But they were gone before they caused damage to the game’s internal systems and/or were reduced in number to what they would have been if there had been a boost in classic.
I would disagree with this. While yes at the start of Classic more of their player base played Classic. As soon as Classic was about a year old and Shadowlands came out, most of it shifted to Shadowlands. People are just playing what’s new. Same thing will happen with TBC launch and w/e the new retail expansion is.
How are you disagreeing with it. I never said larger demand, I said large demand and the point was that there is a demand for something DIFFERENT to retail. That’s the primary claim.
We’ve already been over this. You forcing me to repeat this is pure facetiousness. Tourists will exist in both, but due to boosting, there will be more tourists and they will have a greater and more negative impact on the game than they did in classic.
who says every or even most tourists capped?
but did those changes go in direct opposition to the original vision for the game WHILST ALSO contradicting the original market appeal of the wow classic product.
