  1. Maybe Blizz feels if they can get out content on the being of the month before any other competitor then the customer will more likely sub for that game instead of its competitor and will play Blizz's game and lose some interest in other games to play.

  2. Hmm, I wonder what MMORPG has the worst Combat System? Or people just don't get the nuance of those combat systems because they are pretty much running off of what they played in another MMO.

    Weirdly enough, I actually dislike World of Warcraft's Combat system of a quick CD. The slow-paced gameplay of FFXIV is actually better for me.

  3. I think its also partly Ashes of Creation given the fact TBC fans would likely be more attracted to that game and cutting away from Beta testing would be benefitial for Blizzard. Sure they did move the date after because of TBC launch but having both that and ESO I think its a good reason why they might want to push it out a few weeks ahead of time.

  4. Its planned for timing and profit for numbers. It just so happened when they changed the price and the duration of the game time, so when people first bought the new two month time they would have to buy tbc and more game time come the 1st

  5. I knew they were going to short-sell when they would announce the release date when they mentioned that they were selling boosts, but they also knew that they were in serious trouble with investors and 9.1 wouldn't do anything to boost WoW enough.

  6. So all you do is refuse to play TBC classic until you want to and not when Blizzard want you too, simple, let's face it, it's not going to disappear in a few months time is it? just put it on a "to play" list then come back to it after ESO Blackwood and FFXIV … or not at all because it's a monetized piece of shit that clearly shows yet again that Blizzard only care about taking money and regurgitating the exact same game, there is nothing new there, the only new content in the game is going to be the pixels used on the advertising to get you spend money I said it with the whole vanilla classic situation "what a ripoff, I'm not playing that" … and the position remains as stated. If I want to go play TBC I can do it now, I don't have to pay ridiculous amounts of money to do it. I don't chose to be financially raped thanks.

  7. I can solo entire Karazhan on live. Same bosses, same loot. I do it sometimes for tmog. None of the TBC content was removed from the game. Why would I want to replay it in TBC Classic? At least with Classic Vanilla there was a lot of removed content that was brought back, the pre-Cataclysm maps and quests, Scepter of The Shifting Sands, Atiesh quest chains etc.

  8. Why is Bellular so in denial that Blizzard always time their releases to other big mmorpg's releases. You can see it happening years ago.

    New Worlds closed beta is coming in July , followed by release in August. I wonder if Blizzard will release something on those dates.

  9. So is that what this channel is now? Clipping audio from one large conversation and making 12 videos from it? With shallow conversation about the topic for some views…

  10. It isn't so much the release date as it is the pre-patch. 2 weeks is a joke and shows they couldn't give a rats ass about the community which I guess we already knew. They never really wanted to release classic to begin with and have basically mailed it in since doing so.

  11. i agree its not a good move and people like myself will play tbc anyways, i'm not going off to another game even if my life depended on it but i do have a eso account just wow is better and will mostly be always better (panda land sucks)
