    They've done a decent enough job with recreating TBC. Overall it has all the same elements from the original with a couple of small Quality of Life changes, but I wish it had more.

    Biggest faults of the game are the bots, and the refusal to make sensible changes that might benefit the game and the community. Unfortunately the community who play the game have 2 opposing mentalities that    They've done a decent enough job with recreating TBC.

    Biggest faults of the game are the bots, and the refusal to make sensible changes that might benefit the game and the community. Unfortunately the community who play the game have 2 opposing mentalities that make it impossible to please everyone, so all opinions come across unreasonably biased.

    There's no pay-to-win aspect of the game, however the bots can mess up server economy quite a fair bit, which means that a lot of people have just resorted to buying gold. This means they don't need to spend time farming gold to buy their raid consumables against the legions of bots that do it 24/7. This in turn leads to a lot of "raid-logging" as there are limited things to do in the game outside of raiding if you don't PvP.

    There will never be a way to reclaim the "magic" of the original TBC experience. That's not how the world works. But you can still find some fun here if you accept the issues.

    Even with all the bots, I have an engaging time with the game because I play with people I like to spend time with, even if the systems and mechanics on offer here are a bit dated. I've never once let something like bots or community politics ruin my enjoyment of the game - people who choose to take part in those "drama" aspects will always have something to complain about.

    If you want to raid TBC, you can do it here. And you can do it as the speed that's right for your guild. But you're playing an old game, so expect some dated flaws. Now that all content has been released, you can jump in and clear whatever you like fairly easily except for Sunwell which is pretty tough going for *most* guilds.

    PvP will always be an issue in all WoW games. It (more or less) has been since the beginning of time. "Unblanced racials" and server population skewed to one faction over the other is a big thing here. Anyone expecting something else is deluding themselves. But that doesn't mean I don't see plenty of people enjoying their time PvPing all day everyday - just keep your expectations realisitic and accept what the game has to offer, instead of complaining about what's not there.    … Expand

    As a vanilla player as much as I was impressed by Blizzard reviving Classic I am upset by them ruining TBC.

    I was happy to play Classic once again, after a long years not playing WOW I got back to the game, payed my subscription and went for the journey. When they announced TBC I was happy as a kid as I consider it to be the best part of the WOW. And... they ruined it.

    Why? Why had they ruin the only thing they did right for the heck of time? The last hope we had for the company getting back on track. They couldn't do as little to their old players as not to touch classic.

    Just like the good 'ol days, only better. It may not be the best WoW expansion, but it's a solid second-best, losing out only to WotLK. Would be nice though if Blizzard would fix some of the bugs. 2 mobs in Kara a bugged out, and have been for months now. One of the bosses in BT can still pull through the floor. Overall, still solid though.

    Blizzard muted my account because i stand up for diversity against a hungarian homophobic guild and was mass reported by them. No gm, no nothing. Blizzard officially protects homophobic, racist, sexist, toxic people. Hope they and kotick get smashed in calfornia.

    WoW is dying? Yes, he's dying. And a long time ago. Blizzard just has enough resources to support his agony on artificial life support for many years. Games outside politics

    Super fun to experience the classic Burning Crusade expansion again! The community is great and far more connected and helpful than on live. A great game to play if you miss class identity or want to relive the glory days of WoW.

    It should have been so easy for Blizzard, just re-releasing age old content, in order to milk all the nostalgia addicts. And yes, I was looking forward to bc too.

    You would think Blizzard is intentionally running their game into the ground.

    It's no secret that the whole faction system never really worked in the first place and has gotten especially bad since bfa - to no surprise (overweight and rediculous big humans vs Zandalari, gnomes with amputated arms & legs vs cute foxes etc.).

There are a lot of reasons, but one of the biggest obviously are the playable races. Players naturally choose the faction with the mainstream races.

    Now back in the day it all started with the introduction with blood elves. Almost everyone wanted to be "a pretty elf", so the imbalance got worse by the day.
    With bc classic however Blizzard made the whole situation even worse, so that it's pretty much in the same messy situation like retail. They introduced same faction battlegrounds, so the Horde is literally fighting the Horde... just wow. Cross faction play is taboo, as well as the removal of racial segregation/racism but same faction pvp is ok? wtf Blizzard?

    The devs apparently consists of trolls. There is no other explanation, why they are abusing the faction systems so badly, both in retail and now in bc classic.    … Expand

    All future classic games will suffer this fate until Blizzard region lock the fame to EU only and monitor the zones and dungeons the same way i did to witness these accounts. Simply do a who at 2am or 5am and catch them red handed. But they refuse to do this and rely on automated reports. But they never act on said reports either.

    Burning Crusade Classic has been an excellent launch of some of Blizzard’s best expansion content to date. It’s an excellent experience for veterans and players who never got to experience Burning Crusade the first time around. However, if you are looking for an authentic TBC experience, this isn’t it. I mean, you can’t get that no matter what because part of the experience is we all knew so little about WoW’s inner workings, and there’s no way to recreate that. If you’re looking for a version of WoW, that’s a bit of a slower pace and less handholding (unless, of course, you get certain addons), then you should probably give Burning Crusade Classic a try.

    Whether you’re fighting, crafting, or gathering, your actions always serve a purpose in the Burning Crusade Classic campaign. Anyone can feel like they’re contributing either to their own guilds and groups or to the server as a whole. Leveling can feel sluggish at times, but talent points, meaningful gear upgrades, and a clear endgame goal create an RPG experience that still manages to make it a game worth experiencing if you have the time, even if it’s more demanding than we typically tolerate from games like this.

    For seasoned players (and even a little intolerant), the changes to Burning Crusade Classic (compared to the original game The Burning Crusade) are not necessarily welcome in the sense that they upset the historical balance of the title. However, for newcomers, this has the advantage of allowing them to better enjoy the content of all of this extension. Even if everything is not perfect, some elements are very pleasant to find, including exploration, Resilience or the obligation to unlock certain accesses to access very high level content. Burning Crusade Classic is therefore a logical and globally successful continuation of WoW Classic, nostalgic as new players can easily find what they are looking for, even if some will be reluctant about the modifications made to the original material.
