Blizzard announce official Classic/Vanilla Server Development

[Daloon]

They should do what Runescape did:

1. make a classic server with a few minor QOL changes,
2. keep the content classic/timelined for X amount years
3. then introduce brand new classic-style content that was never seen before. This can mean harder raids than Naxx3.0, harder dungeons, etc, something to keep the server going if it isnt a progression server.

It'll be ran entirely by a separate team, separate developer team, etc, just like Runescape.

It's important to remember that progressing through Molten Core, BWL, AQ40, etc, is extremely easier a decade+ later. They will need to do some customizing in my opinion to keep end game engaging to their players.

I also figured this would be free with a subscription, but other forums are hinting that it would require a recent/upcoming expansions to access classic, hmmm.
