Ok, I’ve been playing WoW Classic for almost a month now and I think I just realized what Blizzard’s Master Plan for WoW Classic was from the very start.
As I have said before in this blog, I used to be a frequent WoW player up until a few years ago. I got excited to head back into WoW Classic since it would be simple and not have all the extra features that made WoW more complicated as the expansions kept piling up. However, some of those extra features helped improve the game from the Classic version for good reasons.
I think Blizzard’s plan was to rope old players in by offering the simplistic original version. Then, when those older players crave the add-ons from the expansions, such as quest direction, they will want the new expansions as well. It worked on me, I just bought the newest expansion since they had it on sale for a limited time.
It’s actually somewhat brilliant. They draw old players in with the old game, when players want what they miss from the newer versions, and the players will then purchase the newest expansion since it is on sale.
I want to keep playing WoW Classic and retail WoW now. I may start playing and posting videos about retail WoW in the future, but for now I’ll only be making videos about WoW Classic.
I’ve already posted it earlier, but here is the video I made for WoW classic earlier in the week.
So until my next post keep up with me on my other social media below:
