I agree on every single point in this video. I read a few comments talking about subjectivity, and yeah ofc, everything boils down to just that - subjectivity. My take on it is; I would have been just fine with a fresh reroll of a vanilla server. Nothing more, nothing less. If I want runes, flying unicorns and demonhunters I would look up said expansion and play that. Just my two subjective cents :)

I think they are doing this is because of 2 things: 1. We are at level 25 and we have litterly no spells at that point which gives us at least 2 Buttons to press. As a Enhancer you just stand around and cast earthshock and wait for an AA and drop totems and wait and sit back and while we are oom after 3 shock-spells we just simple AA all raid/dungeon long. 2. There are speccs who are useless and nobody plays at lvl 25 Arcane-Mage or Fire-Mage if you can get the best out of Frost-Mage. The same goes for Druid or Paladin. Nobody would play a Ret-Pally who does Nothing on the DPS-Meter while beeing a Buff-Bitch in a 10 Man Raid. Yes some stuffs are Over-Powered on Paper BUT! we are at lvl 25 and have Nothing to press.

My feeling is they went the right direction with the rune system (too early to know yet tho, since I haven't tried it) - but I do agree they might have gone a bit over board with for example mage healing and rogue tank etc... But making so called meme specs more viable by adding to their kit is good imo. Shaking up the meta should be fun. But, as you mention, it could be a serious problem if it trivializes the content because classes are too OP.

Fresh and new can't be accomplished without changing the game. Were the previous dungeons really that difficult and do they need to be? Let's say BRD is slightly easier, and it takes 30% less time to do a complete clear, would that make it worse? I wouldn't think so. Even for new players it's not that difficult, it's just time consuming.
@silv3r222
@silv3r222 8 ай бұрын
Classic content is already trivial. The entire "difficulty" of classic only comes down to numbers. Numbers which are beaten with gear given the time it takes you to achieve that gear. To say classic is hard is a complete misunderstanding of what actual difficulty is when it comes to the mechanics of a video game. Entire CLASSES have 1 button rotations, pull up details at the end of the raid and you have casted 3000 Frost bolts; ah yes very hard..... Adding new flavor to the game will change how the game is played and maybe somehow increase the players damage which could decrease the "difficulty" of the game. But it is something needed after 4 years of classic, I mean for just how long can you actually have fun playing a game where you only press 1 button?
@kylesmith987
@kylesmith987 8 ай бұрын
@@silv3r222 I don't think the problem is new buttons like you said. Absolutely they need to give some classes new buttons to press. The problem is when those new buttons are horribly balanced for the original identity and difficulty of the game or when the new buttons infringe on the class identity and create too much homogenization. For Example: No one is going to complain about giving ret paladins crusader strike, this is a fantastic addition that feels inline with the original identity. On the other hand giving mages abilities to heal people has nothing to do with the original identity of WoW class design. Some of the more up in the air ones were things like shaman tanks. I think this is cool because classic did fiddle with the idea of shamans being tanks but i could also understand of people don't like it. One of my other potential red flags is these new abilities removing the need to gear around specific things. For Example: all the new tank abilities for Warlock, Rogue, and Shaman give them reduced crit chance by 6%. This means these classes are immediately uncritable in a raid environment where as the traditional tanks like war still have to gear defense to become uncritable and that defense amount is MASSIVE. At end game its soo high in fact that it is impossible to get crit cap through defense without raid gear or really niche things. This gives a massive boon to the new tanks that may just straight up make the old tanks not viable if this isn't balanced correctly. You are correct that classic is numbers game but its very important that everything stays inline numbers wise for classic as this has a massive impact on the feel of the game.

I think it looks so lazy and it synergizes awfully when they didn't change the talent trees at all. But I'm warming up to that route a bit since this makes it very easy to learn what changes they make compared to if they changed existing spells, talents and added spells. But of course insanely over the top to the point where already at level 25 the classes doesn't feel like Classic classes any longer. I feel confident that they could've made all the changes that the people want through the wand slot (or adding another slot like that if the class uses that slot) and retuning existing spells, which would've felt so much less intrusive.

I think they're going about it the right way. Let's face it, the meta is completely stale and warriors dominate every aspect of it at the highest levels of any group content. Though some classes seem to get a lot more out of this system than others. As a priest main I don't really seem to be getting anything exciting on either end compared to the ability to suddenly become a tank or healer ON TOP of everything else. There really has to be something truly exciting for all classes and not just basic class abilities of later expansions for some and whole new character directions for others.

Looking forward to more videos from you!!! I had a lot of the same concerns as you. I don’t think it’s been that hard to find tanks and healers so some of those added options to specs do seem on the side of breaking class fantasy. With that said though I’m so excited. The new raid / PvP content planned on the way up to 60 seems really fun. Also everyone looks OP so I’m interested to see a meta shake up. I hope it doesn’t trivialize content too much. I wonder if this is like a glorified classic + beta where they try stuff and then do a classic + release that takes the things from SoD that worked

The entire point of Classic+ was to expand on Vanilla content, not just reuse it and/or try turn it into some new Retail version. We need to go out on the forums as well. To increase the change someone from them might take notice. Btw Asmongold, Staysafe, Esfand and many others (myself incl) have simular concerns. That these changes are a bit too much even tho it's fine to try out new things.

I absolutely agree that SoD is equivalent to a Classic+ Beta or Early Access. I'd also hoped for a Classic+ that didn't change anything about classes but just added content like new dungeons, raids and zones. Ideally this would have been 'familiar but different' content like raids from TBC (e.g. Karazhan) and Wrath but reworked for level 60. Also content that was originally proposed for vanilla but never happened like the Azshara PvP BG, the Gurabashi 5-man PvP Dungeon and other PvE content like a Kara crypts instance.

Well said! SoD is basically an experimental precursor for a classic+. Blizz dunno what classic+ should be so they're gonna experiment and let feedback guide the way for future real classic+ content. They are borderline creatively bankrupt at this point so they throw anything in there and check was sticks and "Discover" it. SoD is *NOT* Classic+ it's a beta for it. Blizzard messes up retail so more people goes to classic. These changes are just retail imports and make classes extremely broken. All those bfa runes will replace some classic talent points. My fear is that this changes vanilla too much into retail, ability wise. I would much rather like to see an attempt to rebalance the wild class disparities in vanilla, rather than give them the retail treatment.

Class fantasy is very subjective - I don't think what they are doing is bad as who's to say what falls into each of those categories. Why can't a hunter be without a pet or a shaman hold 2 weapons, etc. A mage healing is not outside general mage fantasy going way back in games and fantasy (e.g., FF white mage comes to mind right away). Did things look too powerful, perhaps, and hopefully gets balanced after the excitement of blizzcon

I will be playing a mage healer but I also really hope that mage healers don’t get a resurrect, if everybody can truly do everything then it’s suddenly a pserver clone and not classic imo. I know this is more game philosophy than class identity but I think that everybody being able to do everything can mess with the class fantasy.

@@Chopstorm. Unbalance is the key to opening viability. You saw this during MoP (the best expansion imo) when every class was viable especially in PvP, due to the completely broken nature of the game. Every class had an way to global people, this lead to every single spec being viable at a high level. Of course there were specs which were still better than others, but the fact is every spec could at least compete. No doubt that some specs will be doing more damage than others because of the rune changes and numbers balancing. But not every one is looking to achieve perfect min max, people would just like to be able to preform (unlike classic rets and boomies) on their desired spec. I personally love the way they are going about it by increasing the power level of players. If you get 5 shot by a rouge, but 6 shot by a boomkin this is still an entirely more playable and enjoyable experience for the boomie than what they have already had. Driving everyone towards being OP is imo the optimal game design.

After 10 years of Classic (Vanilla 4 years; Wotlk 5 years; Tbc ~1,5 year) experienc with every class, but most specificly Rogue (Paladin; Mage; Warlock) i think it's safe to say Shadow Strike (New Shadow Step, but from stealth) is broken. Between the Eyes is a Ranged Kidney shot, again wasn't nessesary change. Slaughter from the Shadow actually welcomed change, cuz this allow Rogues to use Backstab for 40 energy, rathar than use Hemorhage for 35 energy, but less damage potential. It was introduced in Wotlk under the Shadow Dance cap stone talent. PvP will be broken. PvE on the other hand will be fun, cuz now we can play Assassination Mutilate/Envenom DoT Melee place style. That's my favorite spec through out WoW history, even though it didn't perform that well. Rogue Tank is interesting, cuz you gonna be able to spam Riposte and finally Ghostly Strike along with Setup talent have uses. Combat Sword only got one useable skill from rune engravings, so it might get tone down. Although i kinda love the viability of every class it, also makes me concerned, that the leveling process and raiding in end gameg will be significatly easier. I might be the minority in this one, but i think they should buff bosses defenses, maybe a the damage output a bit. That could be THE balance and it would still hold vanilla's integrity in general. I would've only give 1 PvP specific ability to every class and be gone with it. I prefer Wotlk PvP over Vanilla, but it has it's own uniqueness with it's slow paced, but more thought out PvP. PvP always been like a chess match. You have to predict the next step of your opponent, and be one step ahead. You'll need to thought out how to interact against every form of crowd control. I'm speaking of a Rogue point of view, but it applies to every class in general.

So far not a single group buff or new totem with a new utility option for a caster shaman. I hope that shaman, mostly elemental, will get a unique utility totem to bring. The tbc version of totem of wrath or an altered version of skyfury totem would be cool and not step on warlocks toes of getting demonic pact in vanilla. Happy with overload and lava burst (cant wait to not use it in MC), but I think shaman class identity is gonna suffer the most with these runes.

All these Retailers replying "don't play it then" almost make it sound that Classic+ was about to make a "Retail Classic" or such. Blizz doesn't know what C+ should be so they throw everything on the wall and see what sticks. Too bad Chris M came back to try save Retail then work on C+.

It seems like way too much power to be adding to classes at level 25. Many will be the best abilities a class has even at level 60. Maybe for something like ret pally that makes sense but does a mage or warlock need 3 more high impact damage abilities at level 25? Pretty much every class seems to be getting at least one new aoe ability. Maybe they will be able to somewhat balance it but its hard for me to imagine you won't be 1 shotting everything when they increase the level cap in the next phase.

After a player has their raiding gear put together it's only a couple of nights of raiding 9 hours a week including farming for gold and/or mats for consumes. It's a good thing they put the level bands in so people can level a bit slower without worrying about being left behind after a couple of days.

Class balance in Vanilla is so nonexistent that it would be almost impossible for these class changes to make it less balanced, especially since they're going to be continually tuning things and adding new runes as we hit higher levels. "Rock paper scissors" in Vanilla is a meme. Not to mention that pretty much every rune that allows classes to do new things comes with heavy opportunity costs that prevent classes from actually being able to "do everything" well.

@@nathancasey7712 no, it really isn't. There are only 1 dps and 1 tank (both the same hybrid class, btw, so even the bad argument for "only pure classes should be good dps" doesn't work) that are optimal in PvE. Everyone else can get bent. The only saving grace is that the content is so dirt easy that it doesn't matter that much. And in PvP, "rock paper scissors"? Please. To quote a famous video from OG vanilla: Warriors are rock. Rogues are scissors. Mages Priests Druids Hunters Shamans and Paladins are paper. Warlock is mushroom. Rock beats scissors, scissors beats paper, paper beats rock.

14:15 You want the game to feel fresh and new, but you don't want anything to change. Small changes won't make the game feel fresh and new. This is going to make the game feel fresh and new. Also you have no idea what the full game is going to be by the time we get to level 60 so why are you so negative about it? Again, if you don't like changes, keep playing classic and keep your opinion to yourself about anything that isn't classic, because you clearly don't want anything to change. You stopped playing for months or a couple of years? If the game was so good, why did you quit? Did the number of players dramatically drop after TBC launched and after hardcore came out? Likely so. So this is Blizzard listening to the people who kept playing.

Here are some facts that definetly were used as inspiration for these additional skills and class roles: Since early vanilla development there were going to be : - Swashbucklers (rogue) spec which used bucklers/shields so I do agree rogue tank doesnt sound fitting but that was gonna be a reality most likely. - Chronomancer (mage) also in the lore could perform some sort of healing using arcane power so the Temporal Beacon, the new Mage regen spell will actually heal targets while casting arcane spells agains enemies turning the damage done to healing done. - Paladins had crusader strike before vanilla released just functioned differently, also they had more seals etc so giving Crusader strike is only logical. - Shaman tanking was already part of Vanilla WoW but it was scraped, thats why u have "Earth Shock generates more threat", attacks while having rockbiter weapon generate more threat, stoneskin totem as these remained unchanged since the original idea of Shaman tanking. - Melee Hunter was also a possibility in early vanilla design, it even had a special melee attack that dealt small dmg and applied bleed damage which existed in 1.0 Survival Hunter talent tree and was later scrapped so melee hunters were already a thing during the design. All these additions make alot of sense and are good idea to heavily change the meta but still all the classes that are top performers of their roles in Vanilla could still continue to perform like that e.g warriors being best vanilla wow tanks but now at least ppl have option with paladin, druid, shaman etc but its not certain that they can be viable on the same level as a warrior tank, just may act as supplementary tanks for trash, offtanks etc. Getting new raids at lvl 60 is what ppl asked for right? Changing loot in low level dungeons, making low level raids etc yet we still remain in the old Azeroth so.....if they want to make classic + they have to start somewhere and what they are doing with this is basically first step and start testing with some heavy class re-balancing. Its better to make partial additions such as this and check how ppl will feel about that and then expand until u get the full vanilla game + all then new additions = classic +. P.S also not everyone will be satisfied, that is an impossible task. If you enjoy it enjoy it if you dont, well i guess sad for you. Peace.

I agree with a lot of the takes here however i do have a minor disagreement on your definition of classic+. Saying new systems is not classic+ i think is fundamentally flawed. Things like the Rune system they are adding now was a solution for them doing balance and class changes without needing to adjust the classes directly through things like revamping the talent trees. While i have some concerns about the runes in the rune system and their balance and effect on the game i do think the rune system in general feels very much like it was designed with classic in mind and to emphasize the things people loved about classic in the first place. Also this rune system is no were similar to anything added in retail wow so this argument that adding a new system is going to make the game feel like retail is a bit of a fallacy. Systems themselves are not inherently good or bad. It all depends on if the systems fall inline with the original identity/philosophy of the game or not. And lastly it doesn't really matter how the change happens, change is always change and enough of the change will always make something feel different then what it was. We asked for classic+ and classic+ means change, it means it is not the same and it never will be the same and it will never appease everyone. We hope to find this golden middle ground where the game still feels classic enough while adding new and fresh things to the game that keep it fun.

@@harmonicseries6582 Anything new is not classic. That is the very definition of changing anything. The reason people call it classic+ is because its classic plus new stuff. So by this very definition it is classic+. I accept that it may not be the classic+ you want and i am also hesitant as well with some of the stuff being added but i don't agree that the rune system is fundamentally bad, yet. Also you cannot tell me that there are not some abilities added with this system that you wanted in classic+. For example, crusader strike, there isn't a single person i talked to about classic+ that didn't want crusader strike. Just because an ability was added in a later expansion does not inherently make it a bad ability for classic+. Obviously it needs to be balanced appropriately so it fits into the feel of classic and ill make my judgement on how it feels when i get a chance to play it. A lot of the reasons for a lot of these abilities being added was because a major complaint about classic was 1 button rotations. You'll also notice that vast majority of abilities added are from TBC and WOTLK which is still widely considered part of classic as most the classes still follow the foundation that was created in Vanilla.

Unbalance is the key to opening viability. You saw this during MoP (the best expansion imo) when every class was viable especially in PvP, due to the completely broken nature of the game. Every class had an way to global people, this lead to every single spec being viable at a high level. Of course there were specs which were still better than others, but the fact is every spec could at least compete. No doubt that some specs will be doing more damage than others because of the rune changes and numbers balancing. But not every one is looking to achieve perfect min max, people would just like to be able to preform (unlike classic rets and boomies) on their desired spec. I personally love the way they are going about it by increasing the power level of players. If you get 5 shot by a rouge, but 6 shot by a boomkin this is still an entirely more playable and enjoyable experience for the boomie than what they have already had. Driving everyone towards being OP is imo the optimal game design, and one which will bring out a new plethora of options and viability to this 20 year old expansion.

Also in response to the difficulty of raids becoming obsolete. They can just tune up the health and damage of mobs, its not a hard fix. I doubt if this does become a problem their first instinct will be to add in retail like mechanics and clutter. It would be much easier, as well as less financially strenuous for them to just buff the health and damage of mobs. Then It will keep all the feel of classic with the same mechanics you love, but instead of Rets being obsolete and mages spamming 1 button the entire raid; rets can play, and mages might have to press 2-3 buttons.

But then you have people like me A lot of others That wants something new and we keep asking blizzard to do something bold And that's what this is.

I don't feel cool Or epic I feel boring o Is judgment every 10 Seconds Oh so much fun Like anything that's subjective though.

I think they are nailing the class fantasy. Classes in vanille were not pure, they felt incomplete, it's a huge difference. The first time they felt complete was in wotlk imo. That being said, I just wish they preserve the mana management problems amd similar things that made you worry how you play and how you spend your mana while still having these abilities that make your class feel complete. For example, Fury of Stormrage and Crusader Strike are cool, but what they do for mana management does seem overpowered for vanilla content to be honest. I don't see a reason why a balance druid should not take Fury of Stormrage for the 100% mana cost reduction on Wrath alone.

We also want classic+ that still respects the core aspect of classic WoW but still provides with new zones for questing, addressing issues with meme specs, and certain gear need to be more viable for example Paladins so they can finally use plate gear as they are supposed to do and many more things like this, that should be their end goal with classic+. We start adding rune system that gives new abilities and spells from other expansions and even new stuff that can't be found in any expansion, as well as other changes like windfury now is available for the Alliance and Kings for the Horde we are well ahead in the path towards retail 2.0. Next change will be Paladins can be played by the Horde and vise versa with Shamans for the Alliance. This is the same mistakes that happen back in the day, and now retail is what it is.

Mages have always had arcane time controlling abilities that were never explored or properly implemented. This is what we asked for, “what if vanilla went a different direction?” Well, this is that direction! Add new roles to the classes that are varied and interesting while still feeling like they could fit into the classic wow world. I think from what we’ve seen so far, it’s been a success.

I do not agree. Turtle Wow has bloated the hell out of the game. Classic's charm partly comes from it's open feel. Some class changes attempted to take away core functions (i.e. feral druid) because some random person didn't like it. Yes, new content is nice, but much of Turtle Wow's content is quite amateur in it's implementation. I also do not like the near infinite challenges in the game. A primary reason why Blizzard put out Hardcore Classic is because it's popularity created a split in the player population. If players want SSF, there should be an SSF server. Providing players more reason NOT to group together and contribute to a server community is anti-mmorpg in concept. Catering to the solo cry babies is a core principle of why mmorpg's have died over the years. They were always meant to be niche, and not cater to multiple play styles on one server. Blizzard will do what they usually do, take one step forward, and 2 steps back. Directly copying TW ensures this, because TW is terribly flawed too.

Classic wow has had it time, you can still go back to it at any time you want. Classic wasn't balanced, so it doesn't matter. How can you propose classes are going to stomp through content that you don't know anything about? If you think classic is turned into retail just with a few spells, you haven't played retail and classic recently, it's not even close. What you are saying is ridiculous hyperbole. Write a script before doing a video. Then perhaps you'll see how weak your arguments are. You are complaining about a situation that doesn't exist. Why are you worrying about difficulty in a game that isn't out yet? Why are you introducing each topic with "now here is something...blah blah blah not mentioning what the next topic actually is" Write a script. Classic wasn't balanced, so these changes don't matter. If anything class balance will be better. How can someone who's playing a shaman in classic complain about class balance being ruined? I played a Paladin in Vanilla and forgot how crap the design and scaling was and played another one in Classic and the class had the least amount of development time spent on it. Stop it with the slippery slope crap. Go level up a paladin and see if it could use some changes. Class Fantasy or a game that's more fun? I'm going to go with more fun. You don't like the changes. Good. Don't play SOD. Go play Classic. Stop making up BS reasons why you don't like it, none of them were legitimate reasons.

Exactly. Bingo! Blizzard... please stop screwing with Classic. Call it something else if you insist on doing stupid things with the Vanilla-based game. Please save all of your bad ideas for retail.

Copying and pasting abilities from other expansions is not classic plus.

It's classic plus class improvements. Did you expect Blizzard to spend 5 years developing a brand new world, brand new classes, brand new spells and talents, brand new raids and dungeons in the time between the last seasonal server and this one?

​​@@robertp457what classic plus was before this... Small class changes, like pally DPS,or tanking(gear for them too) Druid tank/DPS same..boomkin/ Shadow priest more playable etc Complete unfinished questlines, Loot for the classes above in old 5mans, raids and new. New crafting items, for pre raid bis,fun and raid. No power jump etc just more complete. Classes need to keep their role, be the best in one area at least. Hybrid classes not op but useable etc. professions could do with more end game items. Fun quests etc Many long lore rich storylines. Now after seeing what they are going for, I do think it missed the mark lol

I think they are making classes more powerful because they will make raid size 25 instead of 40man
