BFA graphics/animations/skill effects in Classic

Not for me, and not for you since its a graphic option. Its already in the game, vanilla/classic settings. Classic already have improved water/shadow effects.

The legion character models is already implemented in TBC/WOTLK clients and works on private servers. Running animations and all, its only client based. Also, classic is actually already running on BFA client/servers. Hence why we have the new water/shadow graphics.

But we already got modern water/shadow effect as an OPTION in game! I dont like the spammy gameplay of BFA but dont mind the improved animations and models. Its only a cosmetic client effect and will not impact you personally since you can disable it! People like you are hopeless.

Easy make it a $ model. You want retail grafic option in classic inset number of $ then pay that amount extre, easy-peasy…lemon…you get the picture.

Not reading the part where I said you can have client-side only xmog, lul.

No. You can’t just decide that YOU want one change and that somebody else’s change is too much to ask for. You either want changes or you don’t.

OR I can stand opposed to such stupid features. Which is exactly what I’m going to do. Retail was ruined because so many people wanted something and said “lol if u dont like it dont do it lol”.

Yes, it will indeed be dreadful. Now imagine if Blizzard actually stuck to nochanges and have us 3.5k realms instead.

Or you could make the game so much worse.

Creating Classic was never about creating a “better” game. It was about creating an old game, one lost to time that people couldn’t legally access anymore.

It would ruin my sense of immersion if there are more than one version of my character with different animations for different people.

It’s a big deal for me.

But if you didn’t see that the other person has a certain graphics setting then it doesnt affect you in the slightest.

I can try and explain more.

I enjoy the feeling that things in Classic are actual things. As in my character is a thing. It may be digital, but it’s a thing. My thing is the same for everyone. What I see, you see. That’s important for the sense of immersion.

I bet most of the people whining about the client side changes are using the highest graphic settings in classic instead of the " classic" graphic option XD.

I dont want this personally, I really dont like the art direction they have taken with retail at all. But for it to be a purely optional toggle would be fine I guess but too much work for a niche imo, would rather see them make updated spell effects that are true to their vanilla roots.

As a example for the direction I dislike art wise in spell terms, you can lookup how the mage spell Blizzard looks in retail model wise you can look at the playdough nature of pretty much all the races lol

What is puzzling is why would someone want the spastic weeby “improved” animations and effects. They are tasteless and over-the-top.

Yeah. Updated skill effects and sounds that are closer to vanilla would be the best for sure.
