You might or might not know, that on 21. the world of warcraft starts new fresh classic servers. And I want to participate. This time, I wanted to try to make a guild, and maybe there are some other Factorio people who wanted to join.

I hope I wont get too many mesages in the tone on "you should be repairing bugs, how do you dare to play a game", I hope you understand that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

I also wanted to state, that apart finishing the space age, I'm already thinking about a different game we might want to do after this, and it is in a way related to World of warcraft, but not too closely, maybe the similar way Factorio is related to Minecraft. So it might be a good opportunity to research and discuss some of the ideas we might put in later on.

Edit: I made a discord channel for this: https://discord.gg/HqKETxBD

WoW takes what, 10-20 years to finish? My current quality module line might be close to filled by then...

It depends, this is classic, and for some weeks not even the raids will be opened, and then it will be opening one by one, so it shouldn't get too crazy time wise, as long as you pick just one char.

I also tried to install the AI voicover addon, and it seems to work just great. It apparently continues talking even when you accept/complete quest etc. so you can click the button, and just listen to the text/storry while walking some other place, pretty cool

Wube are ambitious, but I hope they are not so ambitious as to try making a MMORPG.

You don't need it to be online for it to be masive :) So maybe MRPG?

Im kinda baffled how exited people get for the like 5th re-release of classic (First release, 2019 release, SoM, SoD, HC und now 2024 release)
Wish you guys fun tho

If I played SOD, or the others, I wouldn't be, but since I played in 2019 just a small while and not further than one onyxia raid, and didn't have the chance to to do main tank, or a proper guild, I kind of want to try more. I have a friend who continued from 2019 to this year, and I understand he doesn't have an itch to play.

I play Factorio instead of WoW because I don't like when developers can change my character, without my permission. MMO probably has to be that way, but it is just a bad investment to put so much time somewhere I get no promises or security in exchange. (To avoid being negative, I'll add that I'd play MMO if it required no commitment, and anyone could join or leave freely. But this would ruin most people's motivation.)

With Classic WoW I guess there will be fewer surprises. I hope everyone has a better time with MMO than I did.

I understand, but I decided to focus on the experience as a whole. If I get out of the game for whatever reason at some point, it is not making the experience of playing and leveling invalid.

Kudos to you for being able to say "this project is finished, I'm going to stop fiddling with it and do something else".

No, that is not what I'm saying, there is still a lot of little things and bug report that I'm about to work on.

What's your take on PoE2?

That's coming soon and, if you're the inquisitive/mathematical type (I'm assuming, I know), you might enjoy making builds and figuring out how stuff works in a new complex game.

I tried POE for a little while once, and it felt little bit too wide, and felt little bit too much like diablo "mosnter harvesting machine" kind of gameplay.

Wait that's releasing on the 21st? Man I'm bad at paying attention.

It is fresh servers with the original version of world of warcraft classic. So everyone on that server starts from 0 that day, it might be interesting experience when so many players join at the same time and there are crowds in the starting zones for a few days.

I would start WoW only to be able to play with you, if you want to deal with a newbie

You can try it, and see if you like it. Some classes are harder than others, mage is pretty good and generally easy to play for example.
