Soon, we're going to need a Classic version of WoW Classic for people who are nostalgic for older versions of Classic.
Honestly think they should have stopped at Wrath of the Lich King, that was the last one with a lot of nostalgia for, and that's coming from someone who played a lot of Cataclysm.
So are they planning to gradually re-releasing all expansions in ‘classics’ mode now?
The expansion that got me to quit WoW xD
What did you hate about it? I throught it was excellent
I remember hating the permanent change to the landscape and the oversimplification when it came to difficulty. Those were a couple of the reasons I remember the most, but there were a few other things that turned me off from the game after that expansion that I can’t remember off the top of my head. Which I didn’t mind too much because StarCraft II kept me busy for a long while after that lol
I throught going back to the OG landscape was great. The best part of WoW is the original continents. It brought the population back into it rather than being phazed out onto an island no one cares about. The amount of City raids i saw in Cata was one key factor i loved seeing. Its literally none existent now because the citys are barren.
Probably my favourite Expansion from the series. Returning to Kalimdor with full flying was one of the best ideas they did for the franchise. I main a Warrior and the balance wasnt too harsh either.
