$35 to clone your character to BC and still be on classic? lol. What a money grab should have been included and free imo not that i have issues with money but alot of other people may have.
Then $70 for a deluxe edition that dont even have that much in it and the price is more then the shadowlands special edition when it launched.
Still im probably going to try BC atleast that and wrath was when wow was its best imo.

Do you hear the voices too?
Casual? I mean you need at least 5 days /played if you are fairly efficient. Now imagine mobs being rare because everyone leveling so you have to compete. I mean sure - spend 8hrs a day or you are casual. Pretty much either you play like a world first raider or otherwise you are casual.
Even if you were extra efficient, do it in 3 days /played spending 4 hours a day every day for two weeks or else you are casual xD
This could be so easily avoided. By providing fresh TBC Classic servers where the boost can't be used you have solved the problem. Those who don't like the idea of the boost and would like to play on a server where everything feels new and fresh would be able to do so. All the others who don't care or want to use the boost are able to do so on the other servers.
Such an easy and inexpensive way for Blizzard to avoid the problem altogether. Why they don't do this is beyond me.
Love how they call retail the modern game. I wonder what's so modern about it.
Oh, Blizzard actually Said it was during Blizzcon. They said One of their biggest mistake in original TBC was to split the players from their Friends, with having to lvl up from 1 when everyone else go to outlands.
They "fixed" it now by releasing draenei and belfs with prepatch.
To except atleast One month of prepatch (that would Still be lot shorter than original prepatch) when they made this statement isnt Odd in any way.
They totalt screw everyone that actually play the game as designed instead of spamming LF BOOST.
Free would not be a good idea.
handling that traffic and loads of new servers out of control, so a fee makes sense.
But 35 is probably 3 times over what it needed to be...

By fresh you mean all from scratch? that makes no sense. BC was always an expansion to vanilla content.

There was 0 time back in BC to level up.
Besides, what is the rush? 2 weeks with the Xp nerfs will easily get anyone with limited play time on level 40/50.
2 weeks that you might be behind then or so.. that makes 0 difference if BC is there for a couple of years or so.
How does being able to buy extra stuff with real money make the game better for anyone?
Which could have been fine, if they hadn't previously announced exactly the opposite just 2 months ago.

Nothing is optional. Either way you have to pay if you want to snapshot a character for vanilla and play bc as a player that also likes bc. whats optional about this? It's 2021. hilarious, how easy it is to make the palyerbase throw money at them on old software. and btw, here we dont have the excuse of "lost development files and need to reverse engineer blaze blaze" and other funky explanations.

What a constructive take. Everyone is certainly going to respect you for that. People don't like when they company they have been a loyal client of is selling out like a hooker on the corner.
There is one mount and two toys worth of content for a price of AAA title game. I know they have to make some money from it, but really?
35£ for a clone? What the fuck.
None of those things are "gamechanging" but fuck me it stinks like EA. It's just being dissapointed. Classic had a good launch with no BS like this.

You must be willingly ignorant to not understand why people don't like that. Being willfully ignorant only tells me one thing about you.
Doesn't the XP nerf kick in after level 20 or did I read that wrong from past patches? So much for faster leveling if everyone who rerolls will be stuck.
"If you are what you HAVE and you lose what you have, what then are you? But if you are what you ARE and you lose what you have, no man controls your destiny".
Ah yes, a loyal customer whom, despite 10 years of services NOT being free, spends the time they say they don’t have to level bitching about their services on forums.
It’s not free for them, why would you ever expect it to be free for you? That’s just not how it works.
Will it cost them $35 to run a series of scripts/data copies? Of course not. They’re greedy. And have been for a long, long time.
1. the snapshot is free, if you want to play that snapshot it costs money, you always have the choice, play one, or the other, or pay to play both.
2. didnt know service space was free and infinite.
the 35$ price is odscene, but making people pay for it is perfectly normal.

there is TONS of stuff in tbc that makes leveling in classic insanely easy, but 2 of the larger ones is that
1- at level 20 exp to level is nerfed
3- at level 30 exp from quests is increased
but here

.... by letting people buy extra stuff with real money if they want to?
