Thornwolf.9721 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Id be more worried about ESO and Final fantasy at this point, both of them are becoming titans in the mmo-rpg genre and are currently moping the floor with other games. Guild wars 2 could stand up and maybe even take one of their spots if it would just do something; But I doubt it will as it seems we are in the state of following trends not setting them, of being one of many rather than the one who made the many.

Ah yes the sub fee, i alway hate it for few reason: * I feel the need to play it everyday so i don't waste muh 15$ * Now i know what i'm about to say probably just paranoid but i think some mmo slow down your progress on purpose to make you keep subbing * It's just like taxes/bills * I don't like paying for a game every month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XenoSpyro.1780 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 The level of uninformed in this thread is too damn high. > @"TheAgedGnome.7520" said: > WoW Classic is Blizz's act of desperation to stem the hemorrhage of subscribers. It will be a flash in the pan. If you only knew how many unofficial servers Blizzard had shut down, especially [the most recent one.](https://www.polygon.com/2016/4/11/11409436/world-of-warcraft-nostalrius-shutdown-legacy-servers-final-hours "the most recent one.") Blizzard even lied and said "the data was lost" and clearly didn't want to do it until recently. The WoW playerbase have been calling for classic servers for quite a while now. EverQuest has classic. Runescape has Classic. It's a thing that people want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsakhi.8124 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I just couldn't get into WoW to be honest... I tried to, too. It was just so...draining. That and I played some knockoff of WoW and wasn't really interested in that, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanHalenRules.5243 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Fear not! WoW classic has nothing on GW2! I played WoW classic before it was ever even invented and GW2 is 100000x better. Btw, what's WoW classic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ygdrasill.9135 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I have zero interest in playing WoW classic or WoW anything again. Just incredibly tired of the grind. At least when GW2 does expansions and new content, it doesn't totally invalidate the older content, it just adds to it. I wouldn't even play WoW if they went to a free to play model. It just stopped being fun for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finkle.9513 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Just bored, every part of GW2 is dull... give me a reason to play... sick of short time scale content, with boring collections and worthless achievements with pointless rewards, sick of carrot being dangled with loot boxes for events being ridiculously low, that its pointless to grind for, Sick of no effort put into WvW or PVP and lack of knowledge at the changes made effecting the long run, have mounts in WvW been a success? or was it for short term profit? Are there more people in WvW now or less? just for a increase for 1 month... I am sick of the bare minimum being done, yet every decision is weighted toward draining money of customers oppose to improving the game for the long run.

battledrone.8315 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 anet may lose a few players temporarily, but i am sure this will benefit them in the long run. i was in classic back then, and it wont be a big player in todays market, at least not long term. the overlap between GW2 and wow WAS bigger than most of you realize, if the levelling experience is smooth, the casuals will be there and pay for it good luck on keeping them for endgame though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that said, many says it’s a bit slow in the beginning but all seem to agree that the story is awesome and one of the strongpoints of the game (if you can read).

borgs.6103 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Nah, _most_ of GW2 players are too casual for WoW Classic. PVP, WvW and hardcore PVE(what's left of them) players' population might see some drop, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you never played past lvl 20 you haven’t experienced the game. 16 mio players made it to endgame? in your dreams, i doubt even wow can boast that number 16 mio ACCOUNTS..different story this game has around 12 mio. last wow number i heard was around 50 mio, and that is quite a few years ago and if the good parts only starts after 20, then that is a very poor design decision, since NEW players dont get that experience if the first mouthful tastes like crap, do i really want to eat the rest?
