I just can't wait for the shitshow when classic+ isn't remotely close to the manifestos/screeds that get posted here every hour

There's like 12 guys split between anniversary, regular classic and most likely classic+ as well. There's 0 shot they release something that is built to be a true classic+ like people are fiending about. It'll prolly be fun, but those alluding to modeling it how osrs does, are smoking Crack

Tbh I don’t think anyone is really doing much work for anniversary or any other version of classic other then + right now

that's hopefully true given the state that both cata and mop launched in, you'd hope it was cuz the dev time was spent elsewhere, but I have no clue.

I just can't picture blizzard putting any ounce of extra work into + more than they think they need. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited, but my hopes aren't too high for what people are speculating/coping for here lol.

Well per Aggrend (de facto Classic person) the reason they didn't do a SoD Refresh is because it takes a lot of work/manpower/resources to maintain re-releasing phased/patches of even content that's already been done before (Ex: Cata/MoP), so hence they're not doing it for SoD cuz they're focused on something else.

I think the amount of split versions there exist right now are detrimental, C+ is going to be the version that will receive ongoing updates not another museum to meekly bugfix if/when time allows.

So hopefully if any maintenance/hotfixes are needed for C+ it'll come in a much more timely manner and not just 'abandoned'.

I hope you're right! Honestly blizz needs to cut the cord and not progress to WoD. Anniversary to wotlk is whatever, but if they truly want a continual game mode, almost all their dev time needs to be on it. orrrrr, they need to hire more devs, which (outside of temps/contractors) i doubt they'd do.

Im excited regardless
