    Didn't like TBC because I hated the aesthetic of Outland never could stand it. So I won't mind they skip to wotlk server I think even LFG isn't a bad tool imo I at least could play the game while waiting for group instead spamming trade chat in a capital. I wish they would implement group finder in vanilla so I could at least keep on questing while I wait for a invitation ofc without instance teleportation.

    How are Demons, Illidan, Kael'thas, Nagas and Kil'Jaeden side story? These are some of the main things in the Warcraft story.

    Yet another who has forgotten that WoW became as popular as it did in part BECAUSE it was the casual alternative to other MMOs like UO and Runescape.

    Wrath got me to level 72, and I quit for 2 months cause it was so incredible dull to level up. And this comes from a guy who loves leveling up in classic (and vanilla).

    Wrath was the downhill expansion, with freaking vehicle combat that felt like cancer to play with. The classes was still fun to play with, and raid was awesome, but something was lost in this expansion that we never got back.

    TBC is a big yes from me. It was such an amazing expansion in many ways, except flying. Now that I have been walking for days in classic, I realize how important this is for the pace of the game, how mentally different it is to play, and how relaxing it feels, yet rewarding.

    To be honest I already want a Classic Legion server. Legion might be my 3rd favourite expansion after TBC and WotLK :P

    They won't, Classic is already fading out. There simply is not enough player base that would go through all the old expansions to warrant the investment required.

    These cathching mechanics just escaleted with every new expansion.
    Hello, have you perused how much shit you have to do and gold to spend to get a full Dungeon set 2 upgrade? I wouldn't call that a catch up mechanic.

    If you can clear MC at 58, T0.5 is not worth it.

    Yeah, but the T0.5 is guaranteed for you, "farming" MC is not a viable gearing strat, with that low amount of items dropping per player. No, you cannot catch up with MC, it is absolutely unrealistic to hope for a reasonable gear income for that, even if you farmed 2 months straight.

    Sure, T0.5 might not be the best, but you will get it. All of it. And the fun thing is, while it is expensive, it is something you can save for and you will eventually grind the money for the required mats.

    The exact mechanic people asked for in BfA: working towards a guaranteed goal.

    If only farming MC, sure it will take longer. But there is also Onyxia and when T0.5 is out you can do ZG as well in terms of "casual" raids.

    If you have the time to finish T0.5 in a week, you are better of focusing on raiding.

    Doesn't really matter. The point is they have started with catch up mechanics before TBC. No matter how bad they were.

    It matters because T0.5 aren't ketchup gear. They are meant as a long term goal for people that don't want to or can't raid (although the last parts involves UBRS).

    While I never liked Outland/BC that much because leveling there was always a pain in the ass for me and I felt kind of disconnected to the lore, I am very glad that it happened because it most certainly gave the devs and art designers a chance to evolve, learn new things and experiment. And it is something that led the game where it is today (meaning visually, artistically and storywise).

    I am not really sure if WotLK would be so successful and popular if they jumped to Lich King and Northrend right after vanilla. WotLK was a big upgrade from vanilla not just in terms of aesthetics and the shaping of the world. And I don't think it would end up being equally as good as it was if BC has never happened.

    Also... Blood Elves. I mean they are the Danielle Staub of WoW but you can't deny they were a gamechanger.

    I didn't entirely understand the classic hype, but TBC was one of the best xpacs, skipping it makes no sense.

    I also thought WotLK was pretty bad with the exceptions of Ulduar and Icecrown, so rushing into it doesn't seem like a good idea either.

    I personally felt that way as well, but a lot of people did not, and while it did have some welfare level stuff, it did not do it nearly to the level of Wrath, so i was okay with conceding BC.
    We live in an era of "me versus them", an era where something is done that you don't like means you are personally attacked. People whine too much.

    Skip BC? Skip to what?

    And this:

    I hate to break it to everyone here, but wow classic being released does not in any way confirm or ensure the re-release of bc/wrath or any other legacy servers for that matter. At best it makes the possibility somewhat less unreal, but that's that. Stop jumping to conclusions, for your own sakes.

    "easy and casual mmo" was exactly what vanila was at the time wow was ALWAYS easy and casual...

    QUOTE from Blizz:
    "When new items are added to loot tables, you’re generally seeing a deliberate effort to provide catch-up gear and/or to provide new goals for players who had exhausted an existing reward structure. For example, in original WoW, items were added to give players a way to quickly prepare for Ahn’Qiraj without having to spend months in Molten Core and Blackwing Lair."

    Source: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wo...classic/160757

    This proves Blizz added items intedned as catch-up mechanic during vanilla. There were different sources than dungeon sets. For example reputations.

    I would love that *shrugs* but that is me I am sure some would hate that.
