Actually, I really hated this part of "old content" so much. It was like... standing in capital city, yelling like an market place seller for (sometimes) hours and then, when your group is finally complete and you are a halfway to your desired dungeon (another 30 minutes) somebody decided to left. Only way how to avoid this unpleasant situation, was joining a guild. And you still can have THAT social experience. There is still big amount of great guilds or you can create one by yourself and invite bunch of people with the same opinion :)

I've been playing classic for the past month now, leveling mainly a healer and DPS. I find the tank shortage frustrating. However, I'd rather live with that than live with the toxic behavior that LFG generates. It literally destroys the community - there is zero incentive to be a nice human being, or to interact with your party members. In classic, sure you may wait an hour for a tank, but at least I know I'll see that guy again.

2013. But still, this is the hardest 180 Blizzard has ever done without any sort of genuine reasons as to why the reasons that made it "impossible" to do before are now suddenly possible. It's clear that all along, it's just been "If we do Classic servers, people that want to scratch the official WoW itch won't buy the new xpac". I guess numbers must be getting low enough that they're OK to bring that old piece of crap back for people to resub to for a month for novelty before bailing and getting back to the lives they built after they ditched Vanilla WoW.
@bobbleheadbob

@@pablointer7840 I think you are correct on a lot of things until you get to the end where you mention people bailing on the game. I think the reason the devs decided to go this route was because it became clear to them that they have a player base that will sub to classic content for years to come. With a smaller budget they can effectively retain an monthly revenue stream that was otherwise shrinking. I'm sure the number of players subbing for classic will drop off a lot in the first few months, but I'd also bet there's still several high pop servers in a year or two.

The original CEO and employees have all been replaced over time by people who had nothing to do with the original games Blizzard is known for. And that's why WoW has become so bad. It's a single player Godmode game with zero challenges. And the success of vanilla servers/WoW Classic proves just how delusional the New Guard at Blizzard is.

Daniel Scutaru, so... by your standards, having a debuff cap would also make sense? Because fuck shadow priest and affliction warlocks? You think a broken party finder system that nobody uses is desirable? You think being locked into one decision unless you pay, promoting min-maxing and not promoting trying out new things is a good thing? I like vanilla, but some of the features that exist in current WoW would make vanilla a better experience. Even something like the dungeon finder would be, just strip it of the teleport function and call it a day. Then there were other problems, such as the PvP gear. So, the PvP gear wasn't problematic at all. That was the problem. PvE gear outperformed PvP gear in PvP. We also had the fun and exciting experience of misses. This could of course be reduced through training weapon skills, to a certain extent. However, that's like the talents. It promoted using ONE weapon type and punished you for switching your weapon, and you'd go on for hours just trying to get that weapon skill up to a reasonable level. An addition. Remember crushing blows that essentially made you rely on RNG to get through some fights? Because I do. Vanilla was cool, but saying there were no problems is just a lie. Some people want improvement, some don't.
