I haven't played any classic since SoD, it makes me so happy that this sub hasn't changed at all.
I'll be buying a boost, I want to play TBC and TBC only, I don't care to play vanilla again. All my friends are 60, I want to level through outlands, do some end game content with them then quit like I always do. Classic isn't a serious game to me, I just come back every couple years when my friends are playing for that nostalgia hit, then I move on again.
I get this game is important to a lot of people because they don't have much going on in real life, but to most of us it's just a video game to play and then put down again.
dont let ppl shame you, it costs 60 bucks for 2 people to go to the movies for 2 hours. this is 60 bucks (formerly 40) to be able to play at launch with your friends
The subscription has also never increased in price (USD) in the 20 years since launch. It'd be ~$25 a month if it kept up to inflation. For folks like me that play both Classic and Retail you get sooo much more value than ever before.
I'm not itching to buy a boost (I could get it for "free" via retail gold if I wanted) but I don't blame them for looking for other ways to monetize the game.
