    playing MMOs require a high enough emotional investment that it being available on steam wouldn't increase the userbase significantly and would have a negative effect as 99.9% of people try it and leave a bad review

      I have unironically only played private servers. I love WoW and hate giving blizz money, if they removed the sub fee from classic or hell even retail I'd be playin that shit nonstop

      I don't think it would change anything. Have you seen retail? it's already dead, no one talks to each other or forms emotional bonds anymore anyways

      The moment WoW goes F2P it will have a P2W cash shop or, make the game so grindy it will be Pay-to-"play".

      I mean there's already an unofficial chinese cash shop, gold buying/selling is so widespread its seen as completely normal now

      It will become the highest reviewed game in steam. It is genuinely the best video game ever made.

      Now retail wow on the other hand, if that went in steam it will have terrible reviews
      And will challenge overwatch. Kind of hope it happens now so blizz can sit in their Monday meeting with modern wow and overwatch the 2 worst reviewed games of all time and classic wow the best reviewed game of all time.

      At F2P, nah I think people would be all over this

      The moment WoW goes F2P it will have a P2W cash shop or, make the game so grindy it will be Pay-to-"play".

      It would probably have way more cosmetic-only transmog shit in the shop, like way fricking more.

      It already has a p2w cash shop, why do you think people sell the sub tokens?
      All they made was made a portion of the real money trade into something blizz sanctioned that people could do without being punished so now a massive amount do it.

      It already kind of has a cash shop, that new cosmetic vendor they added months ago (or maybe it's been a year, I don't know) that you get a premium currency for simply by having a subscription, then you can grind a bit for more of it

      not a huge stretch to see them expand that into a F2P design, it has the idea of free players already baked into it earning scraps for engaging with the game

    I do not give a flying frick about wow until they release classic+ with proper content in the vein of classic, no cash shop garbage, no boost and put actual development behind it.
    Until then, blizzard is dead to me and the moment they frick over classic+ I'm gone, again.

    Tell that to whatever dumbass HR at blizz you're working for.

    Its already below F2P gameplay quality, has a more intrusive cashshop and has more rampant botting than F2P games.

    I am expecting a F2P announcement within the year. If not at this Blizzcon, then for the next expansion.

    I don't expect it to be fully F2P... but more like a segmented subscription thing that more modern MMOs use. Play for free but get a bunch of extra features for paying. They'll call it WoW Plus or something.

    And yes, OW2, despite the bad reviews, means more of Blizzard's games are coming to Steam. They have to because that will be Microsoft's policy.

      But all of wow actual content is locked to end game.
      It's not like 14 where you can timewalk dungeons and raids at difficulty while also the main meat of it being the story.
      You just rush until max level and then the actual barebones game begins.

        sure, but making it f2p would still inject fresh blood into it for a bit, the whole point of such an endeavour would be to juice the player numbers for the quarterly report slides

        they don't give a shit about the player experience, lol, it's all player engagement and metrics

        it is a short-term solution because blizzard is poisoned with short-term thinking, that's why i can see it happening

          ACTUAL f2p until max level then you need a sub or f2p but you can't earn above whatever amount is barely needed to somewhat survive in current wow, then yeah I could maybe see that inject some fresh blood.
          If they do fp up until like, pandaria or wod or legion or some shit like under x level that doesn't do anything, game is too much of a mess and it only offers content at the end game, can you even get pvp gear and rewards if you're not max level?

    I’d play it if they killed off every homosexual box and reverted body 1&2 to male and female.

    only if they reverse the pandering they did in classic wow and remove the painting censorship fruit debacle, the homosexual incubus and all the other god awful forced representation garbage they did in classic vanilla ohh year that body 1 and 2 shit, that needs to be gone before I ever thinking of installing classic wow again, all in all Blizzard is dead, I wish I didn't have to hear about them

      I don't regret the time spent playing WoW, it could have been worse and I spent that time playing LoL.

    WoW sucks and it always has. It single-handedly destroyed the soul of prior MMORPGs and started Blizzard down the path to its current form.

    No. Its obvious the talent is long gone and its just a cashcow blizzard is milking until it keels over. And prefer to invest as little money as possible into it to have a larger margin, than to try and revitalize it
