MischievousPirate Thank you I don’t really stay up-to-date about world new but i did hear about what’s happening Hong Kong. I’m surprise Blizzard would do something like that when did this happen?
+Axioanarchist This couldn't be more true. It took them two years before they finally added more deck slots into Hearthstone. TWO YEARS FOR A FUCKING SLIDER AND PAGE 2 BUTTON!
He was 100% spot on about us that played on that server do not sub for the new shit... Cata killed the game for me as well. Now that they are opening vanilla servers i will return to giving them money. Thing is had they done this from the get-go they would have been making money from me every month this whole time, but instead they shit on us and lost money all these years. I'm just hoping it's going to be as good as our old private servers and they take care of us like the private servers did with issues and so on, and that this is just some quick cash grabbing bullshit to put money towards the new wow
Would have been awesome if he had gotten on stage, didn't say a single word as he set up a table and chair and then proceeded to eat something shaped like a shoe as the screen behind him played both the clip of him saying "You think you do, but you don't" followed by the announcement clip of Legacy.
The most ironic thing is that they took the Microsoft route of "You don't need/want this" or "It's impossible to do this" And then once the backlash gets out of control, low and behold! They actually CAN do it, and people DO want/need it!
Game Companies are soooo fucking great now, they know what you want even if it's something that absolutely pisses you off and makes you want to take a virtual shit on their desk. But they know you don't want an actual good game, they know that deep down inside you want a game that's as shitty as your reflection in a mirror.
+Matthew McAllister Bliz says they know whats best cause they are of the opinion if you didnt want that you wouldnt play... well people are not playing, but they just see it as market flux... they are the abusive relationship we are all in... but we stick with it because "oh this time they promised to change and they really mean it"
but don't forget jontron made some jokes about sensitive material many years ago so his opinion means literally nothing in the eyes of the woke community.

+themagicwave I thought the same thing immediately, it seems like a no brainer for Blizzard to set up their legacy servers the same way. I'm sure people would even be willing to pay a subscription to support the servers. When a company tells its customers what the customers want, instead of listening to what the customers want, they've lost touch with those customers.
I think it's in Jon's best interest to avoid political drama. I agree that freedom in other countries is important, lots of people do, but most people watch JonTron and follow him on Twitter for his humor.
How is this not in the trending category of TH-cam, this video has more views than half the videos there. Oh wait, this isn't a talk show, Buzzfeed, movie or music video, my bad.
Yeah it's really cool seeing Jon being real with us. That's my favorite part about people like him is when they can sit down and actually talk for a while
He's not a time traveler because he just so happened to be talking about another sellout game company that has become notorious for making stupid fucking decisions and getting reprimanded by the gaming community for it. This happens with countless other soulless cash-grabbing game companies that would not hesitate to sell their first-born children for an extra buck.
The thumbnail of this video says a lot to me. When Jon rants, he doesn't blast rage out; he speaks with a degree of calmness and reason. His rants are far more pleasant to listen to than most others'.
This is the only video of him I've watched, but this rant makes him seem like a cry baby. Just whining and making childish comments throughout the whole video, I liked Sodapoppins video on this issue so much more.
+KnightRaymund Such a tiny part of the population that Blizzard had to shut it down cause they felt threatened, what a bunch of sillies they are over at Blizzard, lol
+Drakhesh This dude literally said it. YOU THINK YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WANT, EH PLAYERS??? Believe me YOU don't know what you want, WE know what you want. Blizz has been like that since starcraft 2 came out and they spiraled out into just milking franchises and "making games super user friendly so that people don't get scared off and stop playing the game".
Nostalrius was run by a team of volunteers that spent years coding an older version of World of Warcraft with no intentions of making a profit. Over 800,000 accounts were registered there and 150,000 were active within 10 days of the shutdown announcement. Clearly, the players don't want to that to do that either. They think they do but they don't.
I feel like I lost so much after Nost shutdown, I had a large circle of friends and got to know more and more people... Its not like that on any other MMORPGs that Ive played, not even on Classhit...
@@scifinerd17 Okay? That's extremely vague and almost not related to their situation at hand. It's like saying WW2 documentaries aged well, because people don't like Hitler.
@@deadliestvice5356 The male employees and the employers’ treatment of women employees, hogging all their credit and harassing them? Which led to them getting sued? Not too far off towards their treatment of their own consumers making them pay more money for servers that they don’t want shutting down old servers that they still play. They care about money and hogging credit for themselves for things they didn’t do. Did that clear things up for you?
+SoulBlade Likewise, but only 'cuz it's just common sense. Why would you shut down something that doesn't hurt you and it's for the fans? I'd be pretty upset if one of my old games had a similar situation.
CrémePoof They can stop playing and move on. There is no reason to dwell in the past. It is Blizzard 's game, so they can do what they want with it. The players can not.
I like that it’s such a subtle, elaborate joke like clockwork, but the really funny part is that it’s from someone who’s verified. On youtube. You’re actually amazing.
Not really it goes back to the point he made, legacy servers or not they want profit. Thats all they care about is profit. They dont care about the fans and there is so many examples of Blizzard not caring about their fans.
KahoSensei you think the Roadhog kerf in Overwatch is a good example? People said it was to much of a nerd but they said nope we're doing it anyways fuck you
With any other blizzard game you can still play the vanilla version, Starcraft without BroodWar, Diablo 2 without LoD, wc3 without frozen throne etc, the only exception is World of Warcraft. You made really good points and I agree it should at least be a server option on wow, and who knows maybe blizz will see an increase in returning subs.
+CarbotAnimations Nice to see you show up here Carbot, and thanks so much for all your animations, your love for Blizzard shows and it's nice to hear your perspective.
+CarbotAnimations A few years back, Jagex shut down the largest legacy RuneScape server after saying they would never, EVER release one themselves.. But now we have official legacy RS servers, and they're as popular as the current game. Not all hope is lost.
+borgri They merged months before Wrath's release, so they didn't change anything to the base expansion. They probably were involved with Wrath somehow with future patches, but their taint didn't start to show until Cata. The first omen I remember was when they started to cater to casuals in endgame PvE content.
Funniest part is that the guy who said "You don't want that" was later personally forced to announce the opening of Blizzard's own legacy server. A server which became a massive success solely thanks to undoing the past eight years of updates to the game.
I really enjoyed vanilla WoW a lot. The amount of time I would need to invest to learn about all the expansive changes would almost be its own full time job now these days. It's a shame Blizzard feels the need to disrespect some of the their most core and early adopters and basically offer no LEGAL alternative to vanilla private servers.
This is why indie games have been blowing up. They're such a small development team and they truly love their game and fans, and take the voices of their customers into consideration.
+Chris Tapia That's not exactly true. Just look at the open sewer that is Steam Greenlight. Or what about the fact that only about a third of successfully funded Kickstarter video game projects ever see a finished product? There are plenty of examples of indie devs pulling their own brand of bullshit.
TF2 in this case feels like an example. Even if you can argue that the game is still fun today, it definitely isn't the same game that it used to be years ago.
+Daniel Wintle You are so right! I was playing TF2 since closed beta, got my beta badge and all. I stopped playing shortly after the game went f2p. I didn't stop because of the infulx of new people coming to play the game, I thought that was a great thing! I stopped playing when they decided to start adding the hats. I have come back a few times just to see where the game is now, and each time I came back I hated it even more than the previous time.
@Liam Dysart You say that as if pandering to Chinese audiences (and more importantly the censor boards that can easily block off their access to this huge market) isn't a widespread and clearly profitable business practice.
@Liam Dysart It's not too hard to believe they'd want a piece of both pies. As with almost every case, the hope was that western audiences wouldn't care enough to affect profits. Just look at the differences between your statement and the one they released on their Chinese social media: "“We express our strong indignation [or resentment] and condemnation of the events that occurred in the Hearthstone Asia Pacific competition last weekend and absolutely oppose the dissemination of personal political ideas during any events [or games]. The players involved will be banned, and the commentators involved will be immediately terminated from any official business. Also, we will protect [or safeguard] our national dignity [or honor]" (translated from Chinese) But you are naive enough to believe 1 corporately written response over their own actions, letters from Congress members and protesting employees. So I'm sure this won't change your mind. Edit: and even if you do still believe that Blitzchung is wrong, and they were "just following their rules" (despite their rules leaving a lot of room for interpretation and discretion), why are they terminating the hosts? How did the hosts break the rules?
Jon brings up a good point. These people are dismissing the biggest complaint that the fanbase has now, and none of them seem to care. They're so pre-occupied with thinking of new games to make that they can implement microtransactions in that when a legitimate issue like this comes up, they spit in the faces of all the 120,000+ people that attended Nostralrius' farewell. You can't just tell fans of your game who are building custom servers from scratch that they don't know what they want. I'm pretty sure they know damn well what they want- they're shelling out money out of pocket to make it happen in the first place! Imagine if Valve took down all the servers for TF2 and instituted a new shitty mode where all you do is stand around in a base and play minigames and shit. Valve would catch hell a thousand times over and no one would buy another Valve game again! I was thinking about picking up WoW and trying the Overwatch Beta, but after seeing the doucheknockers that Blizzard has become, there's no way in hell I'd ever give up a cent to them now.
+pokeguy742 It took Blizzard like 5 goddamn years to start listening to the SC2 player base (including professionals) and take their thoughts into consideration when changing the game. It makes me sad, I've never even played WoW but I can't help but feel empathy.
@@The_Noticer. I don't think you know what ironic means.. The situation is completely ironic, because Blizzard did the one thing they said they'd never do, and that the fans would never want to have done. Obviously there's still a fanbase for the game, and people who would still pay to play it. Not sure how that's ironic.
@@onizagru Their conviction was that noone was interested. Obviously people were, and they changed their mind only because they saw a decent return of value. Not because they changed their minds due to symphathy for the people they snubbed by closing down the private servers. I still don't see the irony of that, it's pure cold calculation.
@@The_Noticer. A large amount of the people who worked on Nostalrius got hired by Blizzard to work on Classic WoW. Blizzard is doing whats smart by making money off their game. They made Classic WoW as a way for the vanilla crowd like me to play the game they love.
+Witch Docta As another former Nostalrius player, I'm begging everyone here to sign the petition that Jon put in the description! Right now, it has exactly 80,319 signatures, but if everyone who saw this video signed... That would make a huge change. Please, I'm begging all of you. As both a Jontron fan and a Nostalrius fan. Thank you.
"Back then, Blizzard used to care about their fanbase" and sadly this statement stays the same, despite this video being 3 years old everything Jon states is true. Blizzard is too corrupt anymore to care about fans and they've joined the bandwagon of companies that make money their one true goal. Whenever someone tries to bring up the fact that activision came in and slaughtered the hard-working people of blizzard just to rehire in the exact same positions, blizz admins will try to silence them. Disgusting to think that such an amazing company could allow this to tear them down. RIP the blizzard that had a heart.

@Patrick Dolan idk, id Software doesn't seem to fall down that path. They made a few mistakes, but they have a pretty good track record overall. They're owned by Bethesda, though, so...
Wow, I almost forgot what it was like to hear Jon casually talk about his opinions without any skits or fast-paced editing. I haven't felt this from him since Game Grumps really. Despite him being mostly an entertainer, I would still be interested in seeing more vlog-ish type material from him such as this video, even if it's like once a month.
+( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) They're two vehemently different companies. Jagex -NEEDED- to, and actually listens to people. Blizzard, in their current form, wouldn't poll changes, or most likely would let it sit at naxx forever.
A Nixxiom comment on a JonTron video about a Vanilla Private server... I'm still either way too baked from last night or my fan fictions are coming true.
BEST FUCKIN' JONTRON VIDEO IN... AT LEAST TWO YEARS, MAYBE. OR SOMETHING. I love JonTron. But now he's got a fucking sitcom set and a huge budget and shit, and that's not what I watch him for. If he could put out one or two videos a month with a shitty budget and basically phone camera footage on a tripod of him just being on a couch saying stupid shit with awkward jumpcuts and edits and low budget post effects - basically all the shit he has in this video - I would infinitely prefer that to one video every two or three months with high end sets and budgets and scripts. You're a fucking beautiful person, Jon, and you don't need to gussy yourself up to have people enjoy who you are. This video right here is who you are, and I fucking love you.
Blizzard is just in denial that their game is shit now and nobody fucking likes it anymore. They're just milking it for whatever cash they can squeeze out of their loyal fanbase before they inevitably call it quits and shut down their servers for good. R.I.P. World of Warcraft
lol what? Let's be real here. WoW will go back to it's roots before it calls it quits. You may be right about their stubborness, but World of Warcraft isn't going anywhere
+Red Equine's Vidya Overwatch is like the dollar store version of TF2. Stop being a sheeple and saying things are good just because Blizzard made it. It's people like you that have made Blizzard produce a load of crap
+Oluf The Explorer Hey, I'm saying it /looks/ good from what I've seen, I'm not singing it's praises or anything, and I'm not even saying it's good because Blizzard made it, no need to assume so broadly dude.
I don't even play WoW. I have NEVER played WoW, but I signed that petition. Anytime a fan community shows its love by putting in real time and effort, defining the phrase "labor of love", those fans deserve to be supported.
Man, I'd really love a legacy server! So many good memories from Vanilla. The world being changed in cataclysm really took away a lot of nostalgia. I'd love to be able to visit southshore again, not a gassy ruin.
somehow this came on my recomended while im in que to play Wow Classic lol... Position in queue: 21340 Estimated time: 400 min "You think you do, but you dont"
+Huskies Graphic It's actually getting attention from former WoW devs. This isn't going away any time soon, and Blizz is going to have to deal with it.
I haven't even played WoW since vanilla, but this still pisses me off. Take a look at Runescape - people were making servers for the original style of RS without all the new crap, and they didn't like it so they got their own servers and badda bing badda boom people like it. How can such a huge company be successful if they don't give two shakes of a rat's ass about their fan base
Even RuneScape added their Old School servers that you can play on both free to play and as a member, Old School has grown to make up about half of the total players logging in a day. Blizzard could learn a thing or two from legacy servers, profiting off of nostalgia isn't exactly a bad thing lol
You know why WoW was succesful? Because it was "new", they can always make a legacy server but guess what, thats not "new". the game itself has more than 10 years Blizzard loves money, and if they DO NOT want to make legacy servers if because is not worth it, simple as that.
okay, but where is your actual information or statistics coming from on this. Because at this point that's just conjecture. And don't point to this video and that goodbye Nostalrius thing, because while I concede that's a lot of people on screen that's not millions of people. I'm not arguing that bringing them back is a bad thing, I'd actually be for it, but let's not start throwing out misinformation like "you're retarded millions of people would play that shit" People said the same thing about SC Remastered and look how that turned out. Still only people in Korea play it. No one else outside of Korea gives a shit. I get it's different genres and two different beasts but I'm just saying people said the same sorta shit about that.
+A Healthkit Or at all ever. the problem is we would LOVE to play it on retail servers but problem is we can only play the newest expansion version of the game. i would start my sub back up if they let us play on servers that were set at certain expansion version, they are shutting them down because they dont want people not paying because they are and have been losing players for years by changing the core game.
Jagex did the same thing you're referencing to, Jon and the points you made about players would come back to play the vanilla are 100% correct, Jagex released an old version of their game and now their main game and the older version are 50/50 player base
This aged great.

+KnightRaymund Such a tiny part of the population that Blizzard had to shut it down cause they felt threatened, what a bunch of sillies they are over at Blizzard, lol
+KnightRaymund it is clear that vanilla is demand, and if they made their own servers the veteran base would come back.
+Drakhesh This dude literally said it. YOU THINK YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WANT, EH PLAYERS??? Believe me YOU don't know what you want, WE know what you want. Blizz has been like that since starcraft 2 came out and they spiraled out into just milking franchises and "making games super user friendly so that people don't get scared off and stop playing the game".
Nostalrius was run by a team of volunteers that spent years coding an older version of World of Warcraft with no intentions of making a profit. Over 800,000 accounts were registered there and 150,000 were active within 10 days of the shutdown announcement. Clearly, the players don't want to that to do that either. They think they do but they don't.
+Mooclucking Hi there, clucky
+Mooclucking Look who it is!

I’m glad that they’re finally making Classic
I feel like I lost so much after Nost shutdown, I had a large circle of friends and got to know more and more people... Its not like that on any other MMORPGs that Ive played, not even on Classhit...
With the recent lawsuit against Activision Blizzard, this video aged perfectly well.
Can't wait !
How so?
@@deadliestvice5356 they got no respect
@@scifinerd17 Okay? That's extremely vague and almost not related to their situation at hand.
It's like saying WW2 documentaries aged well, because people don't like Hitler.
@@deadliestvice5356 The male employees and the employers’ treatment of women employees, hogging all their credit and harassing them? Which led to them getting sued? Not too far off towards their treatment of their own consumers making them pay more money for servers that they don’t want shutting down old servers that they still play. They care about money and hogging credit for themselves for things they didn’t do. Did that clear things up for you?

+SoulBlade
Likewise, but only 'cuz it's just common sense. Why would you shut down something that doesn't hurt you and it's for the fans? I'd be pretty upset if one of my old games had a similar situation.
do it
They do not have to follow the petition. It is their game, they can do what they want with it.
Sir BigWater But what's the point of a game if nobody enjoys it anymore?
CrémePoof They can stop playing and move on. There is no reason to dwell in the past. It is Blizzard 's game, so they can do what they want with it. The players can not.

Not really it goes back to the point he made, legacy servers or not they want profit. Thats all they care about is profit. They dont care about the fans and there is so many examples of Blizzard not caring about their fans.
KahoSensei you think the Roadhog kerf in Overwatch is a good example? People said it was to much of a nerd but they said nope we're doing it anyways fuck you
Blizzard should take note from Runescape... They brought back the 2007 version of the game and charged for it. and it pretty much revived the company

With any other blizzard game you can still play the vanilla version, Starcraft without BroodWar, Diablo 2 without LoD, wc3 without frozen throne etc, the only exception is World of Warcraft. You made really good points and I agree it should at least be a server option on wow, and who knows maybe blizz will see an increase in returning subs.
Carbot BEEP BEEP!
+CarbotAnimations Nice to see you show up here Carbot, and thanks so much for all your animations, your love for Blizzard shows and it's nice to hear your perspective.
+CarbotAnimations A few years back, Jagex shut down the largest legacy RuneScape server after saying they would never, EVER release one themselves.. But now we have official legacy RS servers, and they're as popular as the current game.
Not all hope is lost.
Lol. This aged badly considering what they did to WC3. And ofc they f’d up classic vanilla/tbc.
*cough* Overwatch *cough*
This just never ceases to be relevant does it.
That's a possibility
"You don't want that. You think you do, but you don't"
Obviously they do want it otherwise these legacy servers wouldn't exist in the first place

bingo bango bongo
What a coincidence that subs started to plummet during Cataclysm, the first expansion Activision was involved with, and has been plummeting since.
+borgri Wrath was the peak 10-12 million subs. it started to go down at the end of cata.
+borgri They merged months before Wrath's release, so they didn't change anything to the base expansion. They probably were involved with Wrath somehow with future patches, but their taint didn't start to show until Cata. The first omen I remember was when they started to cater to casuals in endgame PvE content.
Looks like Blizzard has been getting it's marketing advice from Games Workshop.
:D
+Harizl lol
Tushè
+Harizl Ooooh that hurts.
+Harizl Shots fired
Or Nintendo
Funniest part is that the guy who said "You don't want that" was later personally forced to announce the opening of Blizzard's own legacy server. A server which became a massive success solely thanks to undoing the past eight years of updates to the game.
I really enjoyed vanilla WoW a lot. The amount of time I would need to invest to learn about all the expansive changes would almost be its own full time job now these days. It's a shame Blizzard feels the need to disrespect some of the their most core and early adopters and basically offer no LEGAL alternative to vanilla private servers.
+Chadtronic CHADTRONIC I LOVE YOU!
+Chadtronic It's a shame that Blizzard is turning away their community when WoW is built on community.
I'm subbed to you. You rock
+Chadtronic Amen Chad.
This is why indie games have been blowing up. They're such a small development team and they truly love their game and fans, and take the voices of their customers into consideration.
Until they get bought up by a big company, make a sequel and completely ruin the franchise.
+Катюша so true it hurts...

+Катюша EA....
+Chris Tapia That's not exactly true. Just look at the open sewer that is Steam Greenlight. Or what about the fact that only about a third of successfully funded Kickstarter video game projects ever see a finished product? There are plenty of examples of indie devs pulling their own brand of bullshit.
we've all had this kind of problem on games with multiplayer being big-time.
Never played WOW myself. but i can see where john is coming from
*jon
+TheGamersConsole ThertyThree I miss the original Star Wars Battlefront.
TF2 in this case feels like an example. Even if you can argue that the game is still fun today, it definitely isn't the same game that it used to be years ago.
+TheExodus Play the console version then, probably not updated like the PC version.
+Daniel Wintle You are so right! I was playing TF2 since closed beta, got my beta badge and all. I stopped playing shortly after the game went f2p. I didn't stop because of the infulx of new people coming to play the game, I thought that was a great thing! I stopped playing when they decided to start adding the hats. I have come back a few times just to see where the game is now, and each time I came back I hated it even more than the previous time.
We, now we have even more reason to hate Blizzard...
@Liam Dysart Do you honestly believe that PR bullshit?
F V Yes he does
@Liam Dysart You say that as if pandering to Chinese audiences (and more importantly the censor boards that can easily block off their access to this huge market) isn't a widespread and clearly profitable business practice.
@Liam Dysart It's not too hard to believe they'd want a piece of both pies. As with almost every case, the hope was that western audiences wouldn't care enough to affect profits.
Just look at the differences between your statement and the one they released on their Chinese social media:
"“We express our strong indignation [or resentment] and condemnation of the events that occurred in the Hearthstone Asia Pacific competition last weekend and absolutely oppose the dissemination of personal political ideas during any events [or games]. The players involved will be banned, and the commentators involved will be immediately terminated from any official business. Also, we will protect [or safeguard] our national dignity [or honor]" (translated from Chinese)
But you are naive enough to believe 1 corporately written response over their own actions, letters from Congress members and protesting employees. So I'm sure this won't change your mind.
Edit: and even if you do still believe that Blitzchung is wrong, and they were "just following their rules" (despite their rules leaving a lot of room for interpretation and discretion), why are they terminating the hosts? How did the hosts break the rules?
And now even more
Jon brings up a good point. These people are dismissing the biggest complaint that the fanbase has now, and none of them seem to care. They're so pre-occupied with thinking of new games to make that they can implement microtransactions in that when a legitimate issue like this comes up, they spit in the faces of all the 120,000+ people that attended Nostralrius' farewell. You can't just tell fans of your game who are building custom servers from scratch that they don't know what they want. I'm pretty sure they know damn well what they want- they're shelling out money out of pocket to make it happen in the first place!
Imagine if Valve took down all the servers for TF2 and instituted a new shitty mode where all you do is stand around in a base and play minigames and shit. Valve would catch hell a thousand times over and no one would buy another Valve game again!
I was thinking about picking up WoW and trying the Overwatch Beta, but after seeing the doucheknockers that Blizzard has become, there's no way in hell I'd ever give up a cent to them now.
Tf2!!
+pokeguy742 I think you meant Blizzard in your last line.
+Moy Moy Moy thanks for that catch, bro. edited
+pokeguy742 It took Blizzard like 5 goddamn years to start listening to the SC2 player base (including professionals) and take their thoughts into consideration when changing the game. It makes me sad, I've never even played WoW but I can't help but feel empathy.

It's ironic, considering they're coming out with Classic WoW tomorrow..
And you'd give them your money after they did this? It's not ironic at all.
@@The_Noticer. I don't think you know what ironic means.. The situation is completely ironic, because Blizzard did the one thing they said they'd never do, and that the fans would never want to have done.
Obviously there's still a fanbase for the game, and people who would still pay to play it. Not sure how that's ironic.
@@onizagru Their conviction was that noone was interested. Obviously people were, and they changed their mind only because they saw a decent return of value. Not because they changed their minds due to symphathy for the people they snubbed by closing down the private servers.
I still don't see the irony of that, it's pure cold calculation.
@@The_Noticer. A large amount of the people who worked on Nostalrius got hired by Blizzard to work on Classic WoW. Blizzard is doing whats smart by making money off their game. They made Classic WoW as a way for the vanilla crowd like me to play the game they love.

"I might regret on posting this"
Jon, did not in fact, regret it. It aged like a fine wine.
"Back then, Blizzard used to care about their fanbase" and sadly this statement stays the same, despite this video being 3 years old everything Jon states is true. Blizzard is too corrupt anymore to care about fans and they've joined the bandwagon of companies that make money their one true goal. Whenever someone tries to bring up the fact that activision came in and slaughtered the hard-working people of blizzard just to rehire in the exact same positions, blizz admins will try to silence them. Disgusting to think that such an amazing company could allow this to tear them down. RIP the blizzard that had a heart.

If he could put out one or two videos a month with a shitty budget and basically phone camera footage on a tripod of him just being on a couch saying stupid shit with awkward jumpcuts and edits and low budget post effects - basically all the shit he has in this video - I would infinitely prefer that to one video every two or three months with high end sets and budgets and scripts.

I haven't even played WoW since vanilla, but this still pisses me off. Take a look at Runescape - people were making servers for the original style of RS without all the new crap, and they didn't like it so they got their own servers and badda bing badda boom people like it. How can such a huge company be successful if they don't give two shakes of a rat's ass about their fan base
Y-yy-you th-th-think yyy-you d-d-doo bbb-uut yyy-you d-d-dddonnntttt
The funny thing is OldSchool Runescape has just as big of a player base as normal Runescape, Blizzard could achieve the same thing
Aged like a fine wine. WoW classic, the china controversy, Warcraft 3 Refunded, and much more to come.
Even RuneScape added their Old School servers that you can play on both free to play and as a member, Old School has grown to make up about half of the total players logging in a day. Blizzard could learn a thing or two from legacy servers, profiting off of nostalgia isn't exactly a bad thing lol
But then again how are they making money if they do not charge montlhy subscription and make it free to play?
Dude Blizz is a business not a charity
You know why WoW was succesful? Because it was "new", they can always make a legacy server but guess what, thats not "new".
the game itself has more than 10 years
Blizzard loves money, and if they DO NOT want to make legacy servers if because is not worth it, simple as that.
Marcia Quispe Are you dense? Millions of people would play that shit.
okay, but where is your actual information or statistics coming from on this. Because at this point that's just conjecture. And don't point to this video and that goodbye Nostalrius thing, because while I concede that's a lot of people on screen that's not millions of people. I'm not arguing that bringing them back is a bad thing, I'd actually be for it, but let's not start throwing out misinformation like "you're retarded millions of people would play that shit" People said the same thing about SC Remastered and look how that turned out. Still only people in Korea play it. No one else outside of Korea gives a shit. I get it's different genres and two different beasts but I'm just saying people said the same sorta shit about that.

Jagex did the same thing you're referencing to, Jon and the points you made about players would come back to play the vanilla are 100% correct, Jagex released an old version of their game and now their main game and the older version are 50/50 player base
