So, WotLK is coming to an end, and Cataclysm Classic will be dropping early summer 2024. Its a bit step to go beyond the original trilogy, but today I wanted to take a step back and ask the question – just how far is this classic journey realistically going to go?
At the end of the day we are getting Cataclysm Classic because enough people wanted to carry on, but where will enough people finally draw the line?
Join me today as I am to answer this question and find out For Real… How Far Will Classic Go? | Classic WoW

i think that for the core audience, something resembling EQ's TLP servers is viable.
As long as we keep paying that sub and playing the game, they'll keep releasing them
blizzard is a business their goal – play what you want I played Classic WoW back in the day it was fun I just don't have time for it now I like playing Dragonflight.
We know how far they will go.. all the way. They changed the name if you look at it. Classic Cata servers are now called properly: Progression servers by Bliz. In the era of "classic versions of MMOs" progression servers or time-locked progression servers are "classic" versions that progress through all of the expansions. So by changing it to a Progression server that signals their design intent. Progression through expansions as all other "classic progression" MMOs do.
or.. or… OR… they just not do MOP classic. wtf?
I dont think ppl will play wrath forever …. me wondering y there's private realms
EverQuest has something they call timelocked progression servers or TLP, they release one now and then, Blizz should just this version of classic that
03:28 What is “diversive”? It’s not a word. Something can be diverse and it can be divisive but combining the two is not a thing.
Classic Cataclysm is a mistake. They basically asked do you want to keep playing classic, then you have to have Cataclysm. Then they come out with Classic SoD. People need to realize they do not want to replay the Cataclysm and beyond expansions, because now they are playing a worst version of retail. Classic ended in WotLK.
Always thought the classic toons would just phase into retail from just a raster progression and then retail.
Personally I hope we don’t see MoP, definitely not under the scope of “classic wow”. Although I have great memories of it, it isn’t “classic wow” anymore. If they want to continue going through expansions it would be better to rename the progression as a separate series, different to classic, but still coexisting alongside Retail & Classic. Great vid as always! 👍🏻
I honestly thought they would stop at WotLK. Cataclysm doesn't feel like a classic expansion to me.
I really hope they do for pvp in cata sod murdered arenas it feels. At least for pugging
Should have stopped at WotLK tbh… glad Classic as a standalone remains, and we got SoD now to keep things fresh
I would like to start over fra classic and go though tbc and wrath again. Multi year long journey, and we start over. If we get MoP I could see myself trying it. I missed it back in the days
If you think tanks were OP in Mists you must not have been around for Vengeance DH in Legion.
Seriously, they could solo low keys.
It's no longer classic starting with cata. The shattering is what makes classic classic.
I would love to see permanent TBC and WLK availability. Even if they just make them "fresh" servers periodically.
Ah man that Cataclysm stormwind theme always gimme such chills 🥶🌶️
The only way this Classic series is going to work at this rate is not from nostalgia, but from meaningful updates, especially past pandaland.
Modern Blizzard has no shame. If a small minority wants a dog shit Cataclysm Classic, they get it. We're going to see a WoD, BfA, and Shadowlands classic without a doubt.
I wont log in on Classic Cata even once, that blizzard don’t even see the shit show cata was and the downfall is beyond me
It will end when talent trees are at their most full.
THSES ARE THE BREAST MILK EXPANSIONS
I think they should add tbc and wrath and cata content in but keep the level cap at 60 so that you have a plethora of endgame raids to do and can mix and match tier sets to create unique never before seen builds
shouldve stopped at vanilla and made a new game out of it
WoD was basically 1/3 of the expansion they teased at Blizzcon. If they had delivered on the expansion they promised, WoD would've been a top 5 expac. The raids were great, the story was good, questing was good, zones were good, it was just missing a majority of the content expected from a WoW expansion. Some of the cut content was stuff we'd wanted for years: fully fleshed out player housing, a Shattrath raid, Karabor/Bladespire being main cities, three brand new zones (the Ogre Kingdom, Farahlon and the underwater Zangar Sea), and more. WoD would've been amazing if they'd just delivered what they promised.
Classic + or WoW2
At this point they should have just done a massive community vote on the launcher and done whichever expansion won. If it was Legion or MoP a lot of people would be like hmm maybe I'll stick around and give that a go. But with Cata, a very large portion of the classic players are done at that point.
My friends and I all want Classic+ and Panadaria. Pandaria is by far my most wanted expansion as it looks absolutely gorgeous and I've never played beyond Warth.
They opened Pandora’s box pushing into cata. They should’ve released TBC and Wrath seasonal or fresh rerelease servers and allowed you to progress from Classic Era to wrath at your own discretion.
Big mistake.
Mists was honestly one of the greatest expansions…. It was SO good and SO FUN. The leveling pace was great, I felt
More in tune with the story as I leveled, and when I entered Pandaria I actually paid attention to the story more. The raids were great. There was a ton of side of content. It was great.
WoD just didn’t have much to do… but the raids were…. Amazing…
Blizzard confirmed they just want "tourism mode" – they don't want the real classic experience, they just want to milk nostalgia.
Can't wait for Classic Midnight 😉
I would like for them to make all the expansions relevant in retail. So much content not being used. They could go the GW2 route.
They really need to do what OSRS has done. Make it an entirely separate game that progresses differently. I think Cata should absolutely be the last named Classic expansion. Sadly I don’t believe that will happen though.
I would totally stick around and do ICC forever. Knowing we'd get a wrath era server, I'd level an alt of every class to raid with
I can’t believe people are still playing the progression. I quit after TBC. That’s what felt “Classic” everything else feels recent.
I lost interest once they announced TBC. Classic was such a different game than all other expansions. I wish they added some of QOL from TBC but just created a new level 60 zone.
