No actually though. I was done. I was free. The anniversary servers didn't appeal to me. Classic was done, retail was hot garbage. And then Holly comes out and says "Gotcha, bitch!"

I played a teeny bit of beta, less than 15 hours I'd say and it was great. I'm literally planning out meal prep so we don't go full degenerate in this house.

Are you talking about wow forever ? If so can you explain what the concept is, because I've been a wow player in the past and i have no idea what this is

Yeah so basically it's classic plus. It's classic feel but new ones, one new class, some new talent workings, new dungeons, etc. if you liked classic chances are you'll enjoy wow forever.

I just like this version because there's no punishment for time off. If I can't play during the week I'm not suddenly behind.

Wait, isn’t the biggest thing about Forever that the exp gain is horizonalt like in GW2? So you don’t need to grind to proceed to next area, but everything is leveled relative to your level.

This to me, as someone who can sink maybe 2 hours on a good say, is the biggest appeal.

Not quite. You still need to level to 60, but beyond that the gains and expansion of the game will be horizontal.

there's a new race, not a new class

That's what I meant 😂 it was early

Yes, but also - unlike in classic - there are new classes available to the respective factions (Paladins for Horde and Shamans for Alliance), which was not the case back in the day.

If you want to poke around it, it releases on November 4th, and I actually have extra invite codes for that week of Nov 4-11 that allows you access without a subscription.

Well that woild be very kind, and I am indeed interested. I started playing around BC but never got to experience the classic feel
