Will I play WoW Classic?
In a word, no. I played WoW Classic and the game was just one enormous grindfest with few redeeming features. It wasn’t much better in Burning Crusade, but started getting better around Wrath.
As a die-hard turn-based fan, I’ve never personally been interested in any MMORPGs, but if one struck my fancy, I’d want the most modern experience I could find. So, that’s a no on WoW or any other “classic” games.
No. Nothing against WoW or WoW Classic or those that enjoy them, but I both started and ended my WoW playing days during Burning Crusade. There’s digital graves out in the tubes of the internet for a (I’m sure long since) deleted Tauren Druid and Draenei Shaman. Thing is, I just wasn’t having any fun and it couldn’t hold my interest.
Plus, I only have enough free time in my life for one MMO at a time, and FFXIV has had an iron grip on my soul since ARR ^^; ADAMANTOISE DRAGOON KITTY MAN REPRESENT!
As for “Classic” versions of MMOs in general? I don’t think I could. Sure, I piss and moan when they make changes to mechanics and skills I’ve become accustomed to, but then I become accustomed to the changes and can’t even fathom going backwards ^^;
