- It wont be 'classic', but rather a new game
- New players wont be interested and will just play retail
- Vanilla players will reject it and stay on private servers
Plus many more obviously.
From day 1, outside of throwing the odd #NoChanges in a sarcastic and ironic way, i have said that Blizzard will make numerous changes to how vanilla was, but will drip feed them to the community, and present them in a way that the community will accept and even embrace them. "No way man, we will see it coming and reject the changes! #NoChanges!"
The changes are happening, some might be considered smaller (changes to animations, lighting, and graphics in general), some much larger (sharding confirmed for Classic). Now that it is obvious that Blizzard are making many changes from Vanilla into Classic, is the community pretty much just accepting it? Where do you sit with the change;
- Ignore them (no, those changes are not CONFIRMED, just a rumor)
- Justify them (Yeah but they HAD to make those changes and its only for launch!)
- Accept them (It wont ruin the game for me, so i dont mind)
- Embrace them (I think the changes are mostly for the good of the game)
But thats just my opinion, i would LOVE to hear your thoughts on the matter in the comments down below.
LETS JUST JUMP INTO IT.
