Your attempted rating bash achieves what exactly? Aside from it that it’s false since he has done more.
And your second sentence would rather support his claim.
Nope.
It would be the worst decision they could make.
They already tried it in Shadowlands, and it didn’t work for them at all.
Seriously, can’t you Classic-players just… play Classic, without coming to these forums desperately fishing for validation of your decision?
You enjoy Classic, yay for you, lots of us prefer Retail (Although it is in the usual late-season rut ATM), three cheers for us, let’s just play what we want without trying to change Retail into Classic or vice versa…

So, you’re saying that Classic, on top of requiring just a single button press, involves complex positioning during encounters?
Roles that manage mechanics while pressing 3-4 buttons?
Timing healing CDs? Damage amps?
Even adjusting damage profiles for different bosses?
Is that what you’re claiming?
Classic is not Retail and vice versa they’re never going to be the same and never should be.
Retail is played by a completely different audience, while Classic is made for its own distinct crowd.

Tried Classic, felt it was as boring as it could be.
To each their own i guess.
OK good for them. See ya I guess?

There are 5 people on my friendslist playing classic. Out of 135. 125 if I remove the dead accounts. And out of those 5 there are 3 who also play retail at the same time.
Imma be generous and give you a 6 because there is one guildie also playing classic that isnt on my list.

Roleplay is the ultimate endgame, everything else like farming mounts and transmog and ilvl and player power? just means to an end for roleplay.
No retail should be more like when retail was good (Legion), and not like Classic.
Blizzard still don´t actually understand why Classic worked, and thus any attempts to make retail more like Classic would inevitably fail. We see this with many of the changes lawschool boy Ion made back in Shadowlands and DF which have all sucked.
We went from the most fun gearing system of all time (corruptions), 3 loot pieces every dungeon run and an incredible seasonal affix to the current sterilized crap version of M+.
Bring back the craziness. If ppl want a boring experience they can go play Classic for the 100th time.

I’m not very hyped for 11.1 either. There’s a few things I’m really looking forward to, but also a few I’m dreading. But I’ll just wait and see.
However, at least we GET patches with actual new stuff, unlike Classic.
I completely disagree. They have to stop diluting WoW’s playerbase. It’s literally damaging every version of the game with them spreading everyone thinner and thinner.

That’s because they totally failed with retail .
The only ones that still likes the current game/retail are the remaining 1% that grow larger because people are quitting 
Is there anything new worth mentioning ??
I have several alts.
Assassin Rogue and main from classic until Mop . Has the same rotation with rogue from Cataclysm …
Hunter …current main…The same rotation from Tbc …only 1 rapid fire extra button and kill -shoot that got 1 talent…that may proc from auto-shoot .
The content that we are getting in retail is half from the content that we got from the 1st 4 expansions…
Okay, I will bite
How ?

I find it’s the opposite, classic is really a game for old people, it’s really slow and boring
The hc format is not interesting, you might as well do a nohit on darksoul, that makes sense.
btw it makes me laugh the players who want to live a classic experience with 50000 addons
This is the problem though. The WoW playerbase is getting older and olde. Thus making Retail harder and harder every expansion is bound to fail. We have already breached the breaking point.
We don´t need to make it like Classic, but like Legion.

that’s why blizzard has to renew itself, like plunderstorm or they had a good idea
it should also come out of the official tournament servers, farming and boring (for mm+,raid,pvp,people want to rank)
BUT The last big reason: the seasons are way too long, it’s really shameful.
Season 2 should have come out in January
For me at least the retail doesn’t feel anymore like an mmorpg .
If feels more like a seasonal game with no connection between season and anything that you put effort is dismissed instantly the new season come .
You may say i’m nostalgic or anything like this but .
Is any reason to do the mythic Raid of season 1 once Season 2 hits ??
No.
Season 2 hc dungeons and Lfr /even world content … drops better gear than the hardest content from Season 1 …dismissing the whole content of season 1.
This affect the longevity of the game .
For me the most succesful model was wrath . That was the peak of the game that satisfied everyone .
Current patch Trial of Crusader …
Wednesday =reset day
Amazing numbers of LF for naxx…sarth 3 dragons…eye…Ulduar 10 and very few for Ulduar 25…
This is what an mmorpg is .
Current model is that you are forced to do 8 bosses only for 1 season … This is cheap …
For the 10000000th time.
No they aren’t, keep the games separate, go back to classic if you’re happy there.

Oh, the dream of playing the game as it was in Legion once more.
Starting the day with morning coffee, grinding AP for my weapon, and feeling proud of my progress.
Jumping into Mythic+ not because of RaiderIO, but because it was easy, fun, and fast.
Your class felt overpowered, and you could feel the strength every time you pressed a button.
Pugging Heroic raids was easy and so much fun.
I miss the gameplay of Legion and Battle for Azeroth very much.
But I understand why some people don’t want it to return.
It’s nice to reminisce sometimes.
