You're hyped for Classic, but what about it you don't like?

[Redecle]

Think the poll forgot to list flying.
In a fantasy world rpg if you cannot fly on a dragon, then it's not a fantasy world rpg.

Out of the things listed there's only really one, transmogrification.
Kind of the bread and butter of a role playing game. Who is your character and how does he look, the very essence of role playing.
If you're a professional fisherman you better look like it or a lumberjack or an escort or soldier or whatever instead of looking like the rainbow that is vanilla gearing.
Anything else is really just on the game based mechanics, how things work depends on the game.

In all honesty, classic should have been less about #nochanges and more about #makeroleplayinggreatagain putting the RP back in to the mmoRPg rather than being just another MMOG. There's not really anything role playing like when everyone is the same, a random adventurer killing mobs. Only difference to retail is there you're the known hero adventurer killing mobs.

Im not hyped for classic..

[Silver-Fox]

Hyped for Classic but I would have to say that my most missed feature will likely be Transmogrification. As my favorite Vanilla armor and weapon models, textures, etc. are fairly quickly replaced once you hit 60 but I definitely would not include it in classic for the sake of keeping the experience genuine of course.

[Zafire]

I kind of like quest markers. I don't mind reading quest text or anything, but sometimes it's REALLY obscure with the directions. I remember spending a lot of my time on thottbot looking up coordinates. Probably a vanilla mod for that, though.

[Saverem]

As someone planning on going Warrior that is Arms for PvP and Prot for PvE, the no dual spec thing is gonna hurt me.


And I personally don't mind 40 man raids, but I think it'll be bad for the game itself since it'll definitely cause many guilds to not raid at all due to lack of members.

[Kallor]

No aoe lot, no collections tab, missing any kind of group matching tool
Last one prob will be solved by some kind of addon

I hope they'd ban any such addons

[Frosteye]

Where's the "None of the above" option? Those are all part of the reason I'm playing Classic, why wouldn't I like those things?

[swdan]

I hope they'd ban any such addons

they wont as it not going against the rules. tho you may not use it

[Unholyground]

The only stupid thing is having a respec cost before level 60.

[Ielenia]

I'm a collector. If I were to play Classic, I'd say I'd miss the Collection tabs the most, but there isn't much in Classic to collect. I really don't miss the "gotta mine ores again and again until exhausting the node" thing, though.

[oland138]

The thing I dislike the most in classic is scaling.

It really sucks that pets have static damage at max level and there's no way to make them more powerful - aside from stuff like the Black Book.

I'd just love to see a vanilla where little things like that are changed.

But, I'm still #nochanges.

[Logwyn]

Transmog. I know why it's not a thing, why it's bad for Classic, why it's important to see people with better gear to better judge the size of their genitals, etc.
I just like mog.

Characters with the best gear will look like a patchwork of crap anyway. Someone decked out in a whole MC set isn't a "good" player either.

[Kyphael]

Just lack of flight paths and those God awful graphics for me. Even when I was playing back in Wrath leveling through old Azeroth, having to run everywhere sucked, and looking at those goofy human faces again will be groan-inducing.

[spdr]

I picked "no dual spec" but in reality what i dont like is the "respec cost".

I like to try different talents, as a customization nerd likes to do.

And you just cant in classic.

Or god forbid you click the wrong talent or out too many points in one. Gotta be paying attention.

[Alex86el]

just some visual things. nothing gamechanging related gameplay.

the lack of transmog that ruins immersion, and just reminds me i'm in a computer game. watching most people look almost identical.
and forces horde to prance around in fancy human/elf gear, or dwarves with lokdelar instead of a gun, etc...which isnt lore friendly.
that's the only thing i hated in vanilla, along with honor decay.
(if in, it would be seperate from retail, of course)

or at the very least i'd like a hide shoulders option -_-
like we got for head and cloak.

also,
no barber shop.
no model outlines on mouseover.
no AoE looting.
no instant mail.
no modern character models.
no modern graphics.

even though i dont play this, i think adding minipet battles (seperate from retail)
would give people something to do after naxx, or just between raids.

i'd like to see some old beta combos, like dwarf mage, troll warlock, etc.
it's not something gamechanging.

and i'd surely like some balancing on the racials...
but that would change gameplay... so i dont know.
some people like playing easy mode horde vanilla racials :P

and most of all.. the Honor decay.
such a sadistic mechanic.

[Daffan]

No group finder for 5-mans. I hated having to go back to a city and spam 'LF1M - Tank'. Finally find one. Go back to instance. That tank quits cause it's hard. Go back to city. Spam. Find another one. Get back to instance. Fail hard cause the new found tank sucked.

This was fixed in group finder. And to a lesser extent - having multiple specs you could change between easily. It was easier to just be the tank yourself than try to find someone.

Group finder with dungeons that require effort would be a nightmare. There's a reason Blizzard made the dungeons into 10 minute AoE fragfests, to suit LFD requirements.

[crakerjack]

I'm not looking forward to grinding all the bullshit outside of raids. That includes food, elixirs, potions, resistance gear etc. What I hated most about high end raiding wasn't that raids were difficult by any means, but you either had the gear/equipment for it or you didn't. It was the difference between surviving a mechanic or having it one shot you. Outside of that, I have no issues with classic.

[Sarkol]

Class balance. The fact that many specs, for all intents and purposes, are just broken bad in one or many aspects of the game, makes the prospect of playing less alluring. Knowing how the gaming community is in 2019, or just knowing that i'd like to not drag people down, playing classes that simply didn't work doesn't feel right.
