There’s no rpg left in the current game. It appeals more to the instant gratification and Facebook generation than the crowd that played wow vanilla originally.
Not only will wow classic be wildly successful but it WILL be the death sentence for BFA. BFA population is already plummeting at a rate no expansion has previously seen. Splitting the player base between wow classic and current poopy wow will decimate BfA population beyond repair.
As to those doubting wow classics longevity... I argue it will have more. You will always have to beat A to get to B. B to C. Etc all the way through naxx. 99% of players will never reach that but there’s a clear path of progression with an ending to it.
Unlike current wow where everyone is always at step 1 patch by patch to keep up with conten, and it has the opposite effect as intended and gives less content to do than ever.
A good rpg is structured in a way that you have to build yourself up through the steps and levels. Current wow lacks that depth. Classic wow, even with an ending, has it in spades in a way BFA can never match.
Cool if you wanna stay in BfA, but here’s one mythic tank who can’t wait to go back to classic full time
