Literally one of two reasons I’d ever consider doing Classic just shot down instantly. You know that thing that’s used to keep people playing? You guys are just throwing it away. Seems very silly.Sorry you feel this way but if that’s what you were hoping for then it sounds like Classic isn’t really for you. That’s okay though. I still encourage you to try it though!

It’s not throwing it away, its giving the community that wants Classic the most authentic experience we can provide. Adding any sort of reward carry over in either direction isn’t authentic and defeats the point.

Classic is there for those that will want to play it. Not just for rewards on their BfA license, which would be devaluing to those that earned those rewards that are no longer obtainable, and vice versa would be introducing things that were never there in Classic to begin with. Neither of which we want to do in this case. We know the community that has been asking for Classic for years doesn’t want either of those scenarios, and neither do we.

Those are probably my favourite among a couple of different comments, all from the Blue Tracker.

Damn that's a large sigh i just let out, This is awesome! The vibe i get from these posts makes me really feel like they want to recreate this authentic experience. :)

It is quite the relief to see, indeed. But I think it's worth remembering that it's very easy to say a lot of good things, and fool people that way.

Not saying that is the case here, but it is easy to be fooled.

As I said before, I choose to believe in the passion of the game here, rather than corporate greed (even if there might be some behind all decisions they do.)

Yeah no doubt, there is going to be corporate greed especially with blizzard, Im still cautious just more positive now that I know the devs want to also recreate a classic experience. (Hopefully)

I'm a bit scared, but since I was waiting for Classic from like 2008, I will SURELY play it. I don't think they will change anything significant, because they know they would lose most of the player base. But for me a change like the loot trading one is already borderline: I mean, I understand why they do this, but every development choice in a living world like an MMORPG is as consequences on the world itself, so they will have to tread lightly in this way, otherwise they could involuntarily break the game.
