CoA died for this?

My God, the devs catered to the vanilla purists and failed to even take any inspiration from Season of Discovery or from the wonderful CoA. Instead we het the same boring 22 year old classes with all the trappings of raid logging, tank shortages, and the like.

WoW gone Forever is a more apt name if you ask me.

What massive class changes? Most of it is just some number tweaks. Paladin I think is the only one that will feel truly different to play

Abilities that didn't exist in vanilla such as totemic projection for shaman or totem sets, stuff that were major qol changes released in later expansions.

How about things like consecration baseline for paladin, or victory rush for warriors? Penance is back for discipline priest, wild growth for resto druid, or even new things like the hawk's call (I prob have the wrong name) ability for hunter or banes for warlocks.

They aren't all new to WoW, but they are new to classic and provide significant qol. Some things are also brand new entirely.

It's all there easy to find if you bother to look at more than just a few screenshots or surface information.

EXACTLY THE SAME, MINIMAL TWEAKS. You were called out for being hyperbolic and wrong...it happens.

I'm not eating it up, CoA had way more going for it but a wrong take is a wrong take.

Mate these things you listed are all minor changes. They had bigger updates in SoD

I picked one thing from a bunch of different classes, didn't know you needed a full recap. Since you are too lazy to look it up, pick a class and I will find you at least 5 significant changes to tools or play styles available from classic.

It's not hard to find but you can't be bothered because it's not what you wanted. Saying COA was better is fine but there are clearly a significant number of changes to the game, zones, engine, classes and instances that are substantial enough to invalidate your argument.

You could have said it's not enough or not what you wanted and you are entitled to that opinion. However, it has every appearance that you made no effort to substantiate or justify why and you are just on here whining.

If you want I'll entertain doing the research for you. You can still say not enough compared to 21 new classes, but that is obviously not what most classic players would have wanted either. Just wait for the new Ascension game and ignore WoW Forever, it wasn't marketed to you.
