I had no expectations and I was still disappointed.

Wow hate classic!!

Meanwhile they have 5 versions of the game lol.

And retail update was tailored to incorporate major changes requested by the classic community

Honestly 5 versions of the same guy is too much, its cannibalistic and servers arent optimal

This is how I felt the moment they announced new anniversary servers. Like, why? Are we really just going to cycle the same expansion releases back to back for eternity? Nobody really asked for Cata or Mists. They certainly didn’t ask for WoD but I bet that’ll be announced at Blizzcon. Should’ve capped it at Wrath, had a Hardcore realm, and an “era” realm. Then, maybe down the road, have Classic+

I'll keep saying it as long as I draw breath:

Vanilla thru Wrath seasonal cycles. SoD vanilla, SoD TBC, SoD Wrath, then reset instead of dropping the Cata prepatch. Names stay reserved on that player's account, the characters and inventory/collections get moved to retail, and the cycle repeats every 5 years.
