These guys just tested Wow Classic + for a few days are we saved?

meanwhile the dev teams are very colorful and diverse

2 white guys, 2 mexicans, 1 asian

Just ditch wow already.
Theyve already shown they dont care about your opinion, or a game that isnt shit, with all the gay tranny shit theyre pushing.
End your subscription and play something else.

So classic+ will just be regular vanilla with QoL for the first year or something, and then instead of the dark portal the players instead do other shit in Azeroth? Blizzard won't be able to make that good, come on now

SoD was fun but it proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that nuBlizz has no fucking idea what made vanilla special because they surgically removed every single one of those unique things and replaced them with retail game design
and since classic is flooded with retail tourists, they all clapped and shidded and farded and claimed it was "the best version of wow ever made"
>>
>>738482281
>>738482049
I quit SoD at level 19 when I saw a global chat message like "LFM deadmines need 1 priest healer" like holy shit this level of minmaxing just making me sick.
If I could I would make all GMs just ban all the minmaxers.
You're not inviting a ret pala, only a warr? Banned

>>738482049
For me, half the appeal of vanilla is that it has "roughness" to it. There's weird, janky design. It's broken and unbalanced but in a fun and interesting way. Vanilla is a mess, but a fun and interesting mess, hence why we're still playing it over 20 years later.

With SoD, the devs have shown that they would rather sand down all of the roughness of the game and give us a very streamlined and "balanced" game, just like retail, so I can only assume that any theoretical "classic+" from this dev team is going to be the same. Every single phase of SoD pushed it further and further and further away from vanilla. They had so many chances to course-correct, but instead just continuously made the game more and more like retail.

this didn't happen, more specs were just viable as dps, and new niches were created as well

this didn't happen. tier sets were very powerful and you wanted a mix of them as you progressed through raids, and specific items were strong in Classic were still strong and you still wanted them

Well after they were relevant

>dude retail sucks, blizzard is incompetent and ruined the game, none of the people who made wow are even there anymore
>OH MY GODS A WHOLESOME CLASSIC PLUS MADE BY BLIZZARD? SIGN ME THE HECK UP THIS IS SO HYPE
These are the same people that were AND STILL ARE unable to handle regular, normal classic with no changes. Classic launch was a huge disaster with servers dying and instantly becoming one-sided, RMT being rampant, bots are everywhere, with a completely fucked up economy. Servers were WORSE than private servers at handling large scale events with tons of people in one place, and layering caused tons of problems. The only thing they managed to fix was the fucked up server balance, both vanilla and tbc anniversary have been completely assraped by cheaters with the entire community just giving up and accepting it. If you honestly think that the company that can't handle maintaining an old version of the game will be able to make a new version of the game without fucking it up, you are delusional. Classic+ is 100% guaranteed to be absolute fucking garbage. Classes will be homogenized. There will be wow token, which people will defend because it "solves the gold buying problem", a problem that only exists due to blizzard's incompetence. Things will be streamlined. And the worst part of all of this is that shit-eating blizzdrones will defend all of it.

streamers that play games are not good play testers or content developers in video games, as made readily apparent in diablo2 ROTW expansion. streamers' only goal is maximizing the amount of content they can get out of a game for their own personal RoI and engagement. this is potentially divergent from a normal player whose primary concerns are "fun" and, in this MMO scenario, socialization.

Nu-WoWies will look at this picture of Blizzard centering wannabe ecelebs saying retarded shit while having their fanboys funnel gear and gold to them and decide, "Oh yes, the future of this organic, humble Classic+ adventurekino I've been wanting for over a decade is in good hands."

Streamer shit aside, how do you think Blizzard are going to handle classic+? It's obviously not going to be a rip of TurtleWoW.
Or a better question, how do you think they are going to fuck it up?

>>738486731
Its going to have fun shit in it initially because of how much blizz spends on stuff when its being worked on.
After release, the content will become worse and worse, probably catering to raidtrannies and turning the game into retail with old graphics
>>
>>738486731
>how do you think Blizzard are going to handle classic+?
just another form of retail
>>
>>738486731
It will be retail-lite. Aggrend and the Classic dev team cant help themselves.
>>
>>738479753
So streamers fucked up whatever allure classic+ had by making it all about them and forcing everything to revolve around them
And now Blizzard is turning to them to ask how they should make classic+
That's hilarious
>>
>>738486731
The latest in a long line of private server styled experiments that Retail fails to take lessons from and Classic's team inevitably ignores in favor of aping Retail
>>
>>738479753
I can't wait for Classic+ to just be about adding Crusader Strike to Paladins, then the game being fucked from that, then everything changing and being redone to balance around Crusader Strike existing for Paladins, because the playerbase forgot that vanilla focused more on class design than spec design
>>
>>738486731
they'll just every new thing gimmicky and loot driven because they can't actually design new dungeons and questlines that fit in and are good
>>
>>738479753
no clue whos the 4th guy but all those other faggots are directly responsible for the game being dogshit and the community behaving the way they do
>>
>>738487197
this is exactly what happened on turtle.

They need to permanently ban these retards so we don't have to listen to their retarded takes about wow.

Wait, what? They're splitting WoW into a THIRD product line that nobody will play after a couple weeks? Time for Blizzard to admit defeat and shut the whole thing down.

So new content, so they can just stack fury warriors and clear in 10 mins, AGAIN?
