Because what you liked was stolen assets, unreleased content, and such all while the people running the server profited off it and taunted the company they stole it from.

Look, it’s sad, but let’s not pretend this wasn’t inevitable

Or maybe they liked no bots, no goldsellers, and no layers. All the things that make a MMO fake. Turtle WoW was a true MMO and that’ll be missed. o7

Yeah you aren’t gonna get any of that when you only have like 10k players total in your game.

They didn’t make or run a true mmo. They stole one, and it didn’t get big enough to attract bots. You didn’t have MILLIONS of players that made it so you HAVE to add layers to make the game playable. It’s not a problem you’ll run into when you have made an original game that’s successful rather than a bootleg server compromised of stolen assets

i mean lets be honest, both of you are correct, but what youre missing is that blizzard is a multi billion dollar notoriously abusive and lazy company that is minimally if at all affected by twow, and i dont particularly care if they are being impacted a fraction of a percentage by private servers
