While discussing retail and classic I had a speculative idea... Imagine an alternate reality where BFA and SL have unfolded exactly as they have, because that wouldn't change, but an alternate reality where classic wow/classic TBC doesn't/never exist.
Would SL be rushing 9.1 out faster without TBC to fall on? Would we be talking about pulling the plug on WoW entirely without classic WoW/Classic TBC sub #'s propping up BFA and now SL like a WoW version of weekend at bernie's raid?
How dire would things in the WoW community feel today if classic WoW didn't exist? Because i don't see any love for SL outside of this forum, even talieson was streaming FF14 instead of WoW recently and preach was too.
Things in SL are no doubt really bad currently, we all know why, but how bad would things seem without classic existing?
Personally, i feel like Ion and a lot of the upper team would be out of a job and they'd be taking WoW into maintenance mode with 10.0
