Retired Leader Mojo Posted November 3, 2017 Retired Leader Posted November 3, 2017 So the influence of OSRS and presumably other forces have lead Blizzard into copying Jagex and announcing World of Warcraft: Classic. More info here https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/7aljfu/world_of_warcraft_classic_announcement/ Personally never really played WoW but it's great to see the influence RS can have on other games.

WG Da Man Posted November 4, 2017 Posted November 4, 2017 yeah its pretty nice to see. especially when jagex and blizzard were neck and neck for years Quote

Geitekaas Posted November 5, 2017 Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) Classic WoW is the only version of WoW I ever played. Maybe for 1 or 2 months back in the day. Definitely smart move by Blizzard Edited November 5, 2017 by Geitekaas Quote

Dmonik Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 WoW Classic would be awesome. The original game was actually a challenge and took time to level. There has to be some sort of grind to a game, otherwise what is the point? I'd be interested in trying out WoW again if they did this. Quote
Spedaval Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 I'm super hyped for classic wow, been playing since wotlk. Would love to try it out, my brother is hyped as well. He played back in the day so he'll be going down memory lane. For The Horde! Quote
Ghost Sabre Posted November 19, 2017 Posted November 19, 2017 (edited) it's kinda interesting to be honest... i've never had my own account.. i remember when it came out i kinda didn't like it because i was too much of a warcraft RTS fan. and they spent all that time developing WoW but took forever to come out with SC2 so i was salty.. haha! my computer back then wouldn't have run it anyway, i just played a lot of RS. but i've messed around in a fair bit of PvP on my friend's maxed PvP builds... i feel like since they're launching a classic server it might be worth playing for a couple of months?

1bobo1 Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 I played Vanilla and want to play again!!!!! Quote
Hathor666 Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 It will be nice to play Vanilla again, though I personally think they waited to long to do this. The community has been asking for this to happen for year and now they decide to do it, go figure. And as a side note, it wont even be released when the new xpac is planned on being released the community is going to have to wait another 6 months at least. Quote
Myjello Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 I can't wait for WoW Classic Servers, I'm hoping they come out this year myself. Quote
Dmonik Posted April 8, 2018 Posted April 8, 2018 I've been playing for awhile now on a classic private server. It's working quite well. Quote
Ssnatch It Posted April 17, 2018 Posted April 17, 2018 Played for like 3 months during WotLK. Never really got geared fully tho. Only a couple of my RL friends played runescape with me and only one still plays. Most of them grew up playing WoW so I’d really like to try it whenever they get these classic servers up to play with my friends who grew up on vanilla / BC Quote
MadCat64 Posted June 11, 2018 Posted June 11, 2018 Anyone looking to start on a private server? I've been looking at a cool one called project ascension which allows you to pick any talent or ability you want with talent points. I want to try it, but it would be way more fun with other people.

Hollowist Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 I played wow a bit after BC was released and I loved WotLK and BC but i really want to check out Vanilla WoW, I'll probably play it with some of my coworkers. Quote
swifty 1shot Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 Played Vanilla back in the day, Im so fucking excited to play and experience the nostalgia from my childhood Quote
HailblackSno Posted May 28, 2019 Posted May 28, 2019 Never got to play, would like a chance to play! Quote
TorbMainBTW Posted May 28, 2019 Posted May 28, 2019 I can't wait to make a female nightelf and role play in goldshire, I'm about to be sooooo fucking rich in classic lol. Quote
Chelsey Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 I don't think I can juggle playing so many grindy games. Back in the day, you had to adhere to a specific schedule and raid with your guild to get your BiS endgame gear, and Runescape is already grindy enough as it is. There are a lot of people playing in the beta and I'm sure at launch there will be millions of people playing, but I question the longevity of the game because once the nostalgia wears off, the people playing will probably realize that they are adults with responsibilities and Wow Classic is arguably going to take up a lot of their time. I wish I could play but I'm not in grade school anymore. Quote
TheSleptKing Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 I agree, the game wont last very long atall once the nostalgia wears off, and if it doesnt then blizz have so serious thinking to do about the direction of the game in 1.13 and it potentially killing the main game. Honestly i dont like the idea of classic and hop all these fake vanilla scrubs get a taste of it so thy can finally stfu about it being better. that being said, i never played classic and will try it for a week but i prefer the game now, better game play n that even if it is a bullshit xpac Quote

This is what keeps OSRS alive. Quote

As far as i know that hasn't been discussed yet as it's a while off, but if they did they would just be admitting their current game sucks as they are using a fresh start, which they will never do lol Quote
