    I feel like people want EXACTLY what Xar's explaining from @0:42 (myself included)
    Blizzard, just focus on expanding the existing classic world (100+ new quests, zones, dungeons, raids. This or that storyline but from another PoV...).
    Maybe there's hidden deep caves in the Barrens you can explore with quests inside, a few secret dungeons you can access through a maze in Burning steppes, a new door you can open in BRD ...etc. Doors or zones that are still closed to this day in the "vanilla" world. I'm sure back in the days there were abandoned projects than blizzard can use.
    But don't touch classes. Mage healers, rogues tanks... cmon now.
    And let us discover it. No beta, no spoilers. Just a 30s teaser. Let us find the new locations, so it feels like OG vanilla (kinda).

      Yeah, sounds perfect. Very quickly realized SOD wasn't for me. Being able to discover little new things on the road to 60 would be awesome as opposed to being railroaded to getting insanely overpowered new spells that cost no mana to use. The puzzles/detours to unlock the spells were actually fine, just the rewards I didn't agree with.

      I do get OP's point though, SoD classes seem.. silly? I know that's not objective in the slightest, but that's just what it seems to me having not played. I've not played just because it's not the kind of content I think I'd enjoy. I think having crazy classes is probably fine if you imagine SoD as a testing ground, which honestly I think is what they're using it for. To see what sticks before releasing something that's not seasonal, or at least something longer term.

    the only thing that will save SoD is what happens at level 60 end game, I'm waiting for Karazhan Crypts. Classic+ wasn't supposed to change the level 1-60 experience it was supposed to add new dungeons/raids and zones at end game, such as Karazhan, Hellfire Peninsula, Emerald Dream, and Hyjal (all of which were supposed to be in the original Vanilla, but they pushed them into TBC) Classic+ was basically supposed to be the end game after Naxx, without a level cap increase and without an expansion.

The Incursions gave that same feeling of "Get to lvl cap ASAP" same shit as in retail. Get to max lvl so you can spend some money in the shop. Gotta get in those gdkps somehow right.

    I'd honestly be surprised if I was alone with that opinion, but I started playing WoW with TBC and TBC has been my favorite xpac since then, and that didn't change after playing TBC Classic. However, I did play WoW Classic when it released and leveled to 60, but it was clear to me that while it was fun, I'd not be doing it again. It just takes a huge amount of time and playing an Enhancement Shaman was really, really underwhelming. I was auto hitting and totem twisting. So I was really excited about the announcement of TBC Classic because it would bring some nice changes to the classes that gave them a few more mechanics and actual gameplay, at least to some extent. I do think that they went a little too far with SoD, but just implementing new dungeons or raids at 60 and tweaking a few classes here and there would not have made me play the game again because it wouldn't change much about the fact that you're basically going to press 3 buttons for the next hundreds of hours. SoD was what gave me the entertainment in Classic gameplay that I was looking for, so I'm actually quite happy. Please don't hate me.

    - Crafting recipes didn't really compete, crafting needed to be important
    - New dungeons/raids
    - slight story tweaks, easter eggs, to existing areas
    - balance out PvP, like all the needed was like a 2nd Insignia of the horde type item to make it more balanced
    - Overhauled dungeon mechanics which we did get, so that was really nice
    - Better guild tools like guild banks, or guild stats, leaderboards, etc in game

    - Open world pvp shuts down questing in those zones
    - Way too many abilities

    yeah i agree i always thought that the concept behind classic + was taking your character at level 60 and progressing them onto something else instead of doing TBC, like a full expansion worth of dungeons and raids and new zones to explore but all still at level 60 with new gear, quests and just extending everything but not really changing much at all in terms of how each class works. Seems all they did in SOD was mess around with class abilities and only giving us a very small sample of newer raids. I'm totally over SOD, phase one was great fun but everything was a tedious bore.

  • @nihk5234
    @nihk5234 8 дней назад

    For me classic + is just new areas, both for leveling and end game content, new dungeons in those new areas or some fun new piece of content that will stay there forever if good; new raids that doesn't turn the old raids into dead content and of course no level cap increase. Also some balancing and stuff but the main point of classic + for me is keeping the vanilla experience always fresh with new content but without destroying the previous content that's already in the game, keeping the core of vanilla wow there. SoD is more like a funfest to experiment on random stuff and changes a lot of the original experience. Just look at osrs and what they did there.

If u okay with this should go play retail, people want minor changes class no like this... Ofc incursions destroy everything but lets be real pvp is awful, just why server are dead. In next phase people back for month maybe 2 and will be the same they complety no handle pvp with new runes overall Sod is only for pve players and parses, im not hater but this is reality.

      Also how do you know how PvP feels when we haven't even reached 60 yet? Or you think they spend hundreds of hours to make pvp competitive at low levels... Just like how some specs require certain gear, it's the same with PvP balance. If they are going to do some serious balancing it's going to be at max level where we will spend half a year at.
      Personally I enjoy PvP and I would enjoy it a lot more at 60.
      SoD have A LOT of flaws, but overall it's been great and it's literally putting the ground for an actually good upcoming Season or even Classic +(although I'd expect at least another like 1-2 more seasons before they get all the groundwork done for Classic +).
      The reality is that SOD is paving the way for Classic + if there ever is going to be one and without this, even if there was Classic + eventually it would be in years without us being able to play anything meanwhile(at least nothing new). Personally I prefer to go through few such seasons then to just wait for something(that might never come).
      Of course crybabies that are minority, but seem to be really vocal might offput Blizzard from doing Classic +, so I guess keep crying if you want to never get any Classic +.

    the effort required to somewhat balance classic classes in a "good" way, I believe, is substantially more effort than just throwing in random abilities from various expansions. Like make shadow viable in pve without absolutely breaking the spec in pvp and so on and so forth. It ain't easy. Also if changes to classes are somewhat minimal, you naturally would expect more changes to the game world like new content and such.

  • @soccertodrums66
    @soccertodrums66 8 дней назад

    Season of Discovery is essentially the Retail version of Classic WoW. It isn't the Classic+ most wanted. Remember though, Blizzard planned for this failure. That's why it launched as a seasonal mode. This was a test for when they actually launch Classic+. They are (hopefully) recognizing the failure.
    Xar said it perfectly here--most people wanted Classic exactly as it was, just with new dungeons, new raids, and then implement minor buffs to the weak classes. Look, there's a reason people are flocking to Deviate Delight just to get a "fresh" Classic server experience. Blizz doesn't need to recreate the wheel with Classic+, they need to keep the old wheel spinning and go from there.

    exactly my take. I don't care for all these class changes and add-ons. All i wanted was new enemies, new dungeons, some new questlines and new gear (that isn't re-colours). I've seen private servers implement all these things within a few months without any funding. From what I can tell the old version of WoW isn't exactly difficult to change compared to the more recent stuff.

And Illidan was a demon hunter but warlocks have 2 of his spells and priests got mana burn. So it’s meaningless when every “hero class” role and niche is already filled by another class.

If you feel “stupid” playing classic how it originally used to, then you have been fooled by social dummies who wants just to speedrun everything and then sit and wait for miracle to happen. That means that classic simply is not for you. That’s my point, yea SoD has problems, but community has it too. A big problems with how they want to play the game, but not the company. If you continue to eat their dishes, they will bring you more alike. That’s the point. People left sod after abusing incursions 3 phases straight and then blizzard made them daily, if people boycotted them since p1-p2 or whenever they came, maybe blizzard could have changed their mind about them. What about them adding new content, it’s simply not profitable for company itself, they can’t charge you any money for effort they put in, that’s how it works in our days, maybe if they make it like new “expansion” then yea, but it seems sus for their PM that people will pay for new content in an old game again. That’s it. Simple and sad. Just live with it. To play or not to play is only your choice, and also HOW to play is your choice too. Peace.
