I don't understand the classic WoW frenzy. There have been vanilla WoW freeshards for years. I fully scratched that itch in 2018. Why the hell would you pay for the privilege?

If the dragons werent rooted, half the playerbase would still be with their friends in their original guilds. Needing 100+ people to do Velious content makes WoW classic seem pretty damn appealing.

Hopefully the same mistakes arent made with Green.

The return of the loot conveyor belt at the zoneline? Wouldn't you like that. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

No, hopefully zoneline welfare loot handouts are done. We have been lectured for years that pixels need to be earned with lots of hardcore dedication and work.

I trust an officially supported server more than a private one, quite frankly. Also, it's $15/month. When it comes to entertainment that hardly even counts as money.

(You're on a private EverQuest server that's better than anything Live has come up with in the last decade+)

P99 is awesome but so far as I know there has never been an attempt to create an era accurate vanilla-kunark-velious experience, so I can't find anything to disagree with you on. If they did try to make it, however, I would definitely give it a shot.

That's what I'm dealing with now in WoW. I played in 2004, I played a private recreation of vanilla, now I want to play an official recreation of vanilla.

this... also the main problem with the private vanilla wow servers is they dont last long enough for most casual players to ever fulfill said "itch" most of the time they get shut down by blizzard or fall apart from internal corruption of the server owners/gms etc, or a new one opens up and everybody jumps ship to the new server before the previous one had run is course... seen it over and over the past 10 years
