Nah.
But there are too many millionaire streamers too invested in WoW, their entire persona is playing the game.
So they fabricate hype to save themselves.
WoW "classic" is one of the largest astroturfing operations in the history of humanity. There are more streamers playing it than real players.
MMOs have no future, they serve no purpose in the current gaming landscape.
They only exist for the sake of manbabies who can't leave the early 2000s behind
Wow will never have a "comeback" its reputation is already well known and players will slowly trickle down as the wow budget decreases. Dragonflight has shown that even if you make a "good" expansion that has everyone saying you should play it, the players wont come back. No one recommends WoW anymore because the game is designed to waste time and in todays zoomer addled culture you need to be able to either play with friends quickly or play in sessions under an hour which is something WoW cant do. Thats why Blizzard keeps doing Twitch drops to keep some form of viewership metric at all times in order to inflate their numbers. However it seems most people know this as they've caught on that the War Within seems to be a full expansion price with less content. Im not even saying to play another MMO like FF14 or Runescape, im saying WoW is going to slowly decline until the hardcore autists and paypigs are the only people left like BDO, and only Blizzard has themselves to blame for it.
Frick WoW.
MMOs are outdated.
Back in my days, it was amazing because it was new, it was fresh and you could play with your friends after school.
Now, the MMO formula has been reworked and refined so much it's a bare bone skinner box. No more exploring, trying new builds or having fun. Do the math, min-max and get to end-game. Worst yet, it becomes a social responsibility you have to actively work for.
The new trend that trained kids early on since MMOs was built around spending money so they don't even play that or want to engage in it.
And adults have no more time to sink in it either, unless you have a slice of action for 10-30 mins, asking for more than that becomes a bore.
WoW is not coming back, it's done. It's FOTM whenever something new comes out and that's it.
I remember growing up with WoW and how different expansions came out and new stuff kept pouring in. Now... who cares? more of the same? no thanks.
I've spent a ton of my life on vidya. I've gotten to endgame in a handfull of mmos occasionally leveling a second class and even doing that felt excessive. It's one thing to go back to Classic/Hardcore for maybe one leveling runthrough for nostalgia's sake. I can't wrap my mind around the monumental repetition of leveling over and over and over as some of these guys do going through an eternal treadmill of the same decades old content 99% of which is the simplest monotonous tasks. My brain would be fricking liquified
WoW Classic HC will not make WoW rebound, but it is reminding a lot of gamers what they want out of MMOs: meaningful progression and a leveling experience that actually matters.
Once the shilling stops I don't imagine WoW will gain much favor or success, but if there were smart gamedevs still out there they would capitalize on the interest in Classic HC. I don't believe any MMO devs exist that are good enough for this to happen, though. That games like WoW, BDO, and Lost Ark are somehow still alive is irrefutable proof that gamers simply have no taste and will allow absolute corporate devils to thrive.
>burned most of his bridges
yeah the way every streamer wants to play in his guild, go to his events, move to his city... he's really at the bottom of the barrel these days. and he only gets 20k-40k average these days. surprised he doesn't just fill a swimming pool with all his free money so he can drown himself in it
I used to watch this guy when he was still autistic
>when he was still autistic
he still is
nah, also his friends are insufferable
>when he was still autistic
Making an elaborate furry guild in the hardcore mode of a recreation of a dead game from 2004 is not autistic?
xfire bros ww@
i watched one or two videos back when he was streaming wow, he was a stupid teenager and a complete butthole.
Literally me frfr and like 80% of the old WOW playerbase t b h
Why is He fricking a Polish girl whose Ex killed himself
because he himself died long ago, he also doesn't know how fountains work
>Polish
I thought she was french
No it is just a streamer gay FOTM thing, most of the people participating in the guild would not play if soda did not organize all of it.
This, it's the bulk of Blizzard's customers at this point. They have contracts with streamers who manufacture FOMO
all this classic and season stuff is the last spasms of a dying corpse
THATS WHATS UP THATS MITCH JONES

No. I'm playing WoW for the first time and I can see why it was popular for its time but at the end of the day it's still typical MMOslop
It's not typical MMOslop, it's the progenitor of modern MMOslop.
Biggest case of a shill campaign there is, all of these people were paid by Blizzard
No, all the creators involved are just a bunch of sheeps following the current trend
Soda draws you in then makes you feel like you feel after you just nutted over a slow painfully long amount of time

>be born into already rich family
>stream yourself playing WoW and being an autist
>get even richer
it can be argued that he was in the right place at the right time to kick start his streaming career.
Living the dream.
>old room
take me back...
>that room
>old
I only watch Aris now
>Do you think WoW is making a comeback?
I think the marketing Budget made a big comeback $$$.
It's funny seeing all these gaming websites and streamers do a 180 on Blizzard and WoW once the marketing dollars start trickling down to them.
Blizz under new management, Microsoft throwing around some marketing money, let's see if these Streamers are singing the same tune when it runs out.
Vei died for this
?
also vei is a trash streamer
I swear there are massive "bounties" on Twitch for this garbage.

I quit Classic because of this part
Having to rely on 39 barely functioning morons to do end game content was just too much
Yup
A lot of folks were lamenting raids getting down to 10 and 25 instead of 40 but my god was that a blessing!
Can finally see some content.
>Molten core at 30+ people?
>WHO PULLED THAT GIANT?!
>WIPE IT AND COME BACK!
fml
Absolutely not, the current dev team is the least skilled they have ever been

Hilarious how he burned most of his bridges by being a coom brain.
what happened? Haven't watched him in many years
mistook him for someone else. I don't watch twitch streamers. I only know about most because of the news.
>burned most of his bridges

Is he still dating that e-prostitute vtuber?
Jeez
