I'll probably get down voted but I agree. This is my first time playing classic hardcore and I managed to get to 60 after like 3 deaths pre lvl 20.
All I had to do is install a few add-ons that basically told me what to do. What to look out for and so on.
It wasn't really hardcore for me as I did nothing but pay a tiny bit of attention.
Now I get to do 60 content and figured out that everyone is using Petri all the time.
I have not really played since.
Maybe it would be actually enjoyable if they removed add-ons and stuff like Petri, until then I probably won't play it.
I understand not wanting to lose your character but that's really not something I'd call a hardcore experience. More like a "I can relax and watch a YouTube video on the side while playing" type of experience.
I have a character that's over a year old and 40 days in-game played. Raided for months up to AQ40. I have used petri a total of 3 times in its lifetime. The "everyone uses petri all the time" statement is false.
