You're all actually playing watered down Retail WoW

Retail is not an easy game.

What on the earth are you smoking?

I have played both and retail is miles easier than classic.

I can literally run +10s with one hand while stuffing my face with cheetos

Hows smashing frostbolt to get that 99 parse in Classic working for ya.

As compared to MC where the only challenge is how close to 30 minutes you can clear the whole raid while binding every key to shadow bolt?

The most fun part of playing a MMORPG for me is the leveling experience & journey (& smaller-group dungeon content), so in that regard retail WoW is just a sad, soulless dumpster fire. Personally, I would rather be playing TBC Classic with the pre-nerf heroic dungeon content, but that will never happen.

Fun server during MoP

There’s nothing watered down about the wpvp which you can’t get in retail anymore.

[Soullessone-rattlegore]

CLassic Wow is like a pserver if the moderators did everything they can do destroy the replay-ability, and then said fck it, and handed the steering wheel to a toddler.

[Bigwillie-stalagg]

Uhhh considering classic came first I’m pretty sure retail is just a watered down version of classic bud but sure

lol

and you could make a very rational argument wow classic is just a watered down version of EQ

[Artea-rattlegore]

Retail is not an easy game.

Lolzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Vartok-herod]

I mean, we handed it to WK who was drunk all the time. That’s pretty much the same thing.

Edit: This is a joke, people!

More wisdom, kind bull. More, I demand it.

Classic is not Vanilla. Classic is literally just Retail without QOL. It is watered down, easy and makes no sense to play competitively.

The irony is how much this community attacks Retail when in reality they are just playing the same game with worse gameplay + content.

“Play competitively”

Also, the mere fact that you felt compelled to come to the classic forums to post this says a lot about you. A lot.

There’s something about seeing a level 31 gnome hunter in Dragonstalker’s that made me cringe pretty hard.

[Shieldmaster-myzrael]

Responding to the OP.

That’s nice, I’m sure you’re opinion carries great weight and there will soon be a mass exodus from Classic back to Retail because you know better than everyone else. I myself don’t know you, but I will certainly leave Classic just as soon as a certain very hot place we all know of, freezes over.

[Bozho-frostmourne]

If QOL means being forced to grind WQ and Islands, I’d rather wait 1 hour for my own mail.

Retail is not an easy game.

If you think Retail is not an easy game, you really need to get good.

[Memepewpew-stormrage]

Although it probably went right over your head, my point is not to trash Classic. I have over 30 days on my main. Played it a ton and had fun with it.

My point is the Classic community being totally delusional when talking about retail. They hate it and have no idea why (most of them.) and trust me, I’ve spoken to A LOT of people playing Classic atm.

Also, Classic is not the Vanilla experience, which is sincerely disappointing and will cause the game to go stale.
