tt400 wroteDon't join WoW now. It is at it's lowest point since the game was created. Wait until the reviews for Legion or until Blizzard makes legacy realms.
-Quick reply to that is that NOW is the best time to try the game cause now you can buy it for a cheap price and for a new player that never played the game you have TONES of content to do (11 years worth of content) since every little thing the game would be new for a new player.
-About the legacy server discussion, I find other than the maintenance problem a problem that a vanella server(s) would not live long.
lets say they release there patches the same speed they did originally,
what will happen after 2 years when the expansion life ends??
they gonna keep the last patch for ever??
are they gonna release TBC then?? and the WoTLK and Cata and so on ??
so my point is if it's gonna be only vanella, you think blizzard will invest in (old) servers and in a maintenance teams for EU/US/NA for just a 2-3 years project??
and when a player go for the vanella server and be done with it, is he gonna come to the NEW expantion?? cause technically they would need to start all over again and there won't be any char progression feel for there Main char they played 2-3 years on.
-I am with the idea that Blizzard should just see what ppl enjoyed in vanella/TBC and try to implement it in there new stuff and ofc keep supporting the expansion and not abandon it half way throw.
I have high hopes for Legion, cause from what I see is that they are taking a lot of steps in the right direction.
Last, about the order halls, ppl on the alfa that don't just make rage vids for more money are saying that you only need to go there for 5 min every couple of days, on top of it's not a single player instance, this is nothing like the garrison.
