    Interesting how your take on private servers is so negative. It was a private server that lead us to getting classic in the first place

    • @borga6566
      @borga6566 Місяць тому +32

      This is basically entirely true. If you look back, Blizzard only decided to pursue creating their own vanilla servers because of the quite large and growing demand for them. Nostalrius was part of that wake up call, and part of the reason they issued a takedown for them was because Blizzard decided they wanted to provide their own vanilla servers.

      Xar is either bipolar or just loves to ass kiss the biggest thing in the moment. For example, retail was trash talked, xar immediately jumped on board to trash talk. Then hyped up SoD while it was being hyped. Now he's trash talking SoD because everyone else is. Hardcore was hyped for a while, xar was on board. Now HC is kinda small side thing and xar trash talks it and recommends blizz do this or that to it. Previously like Asmon he was all about UE5 wow when it was just a trailer that he watched asmon watch. Now all of a sudden he's against it, because big bad blizz said omfg we gonna lose money.

    Turtle WoW devs running absolute circles around the Blizzard devs in terms of quality. Sadly the Blizzard devs have shown with SoD that they have absolutely no clue what makes vanilla amazing and such a timeless classic. Just like Ultima Online, the very best servers this day are by far the private servers. Sure they operate in a grey zone and Blizzard has a shareholder duty to issue takedowns, but they're a definite plus for the players, especially the passionate fans who care about vanilla-style gameplay.

    "That's illegal" and "You can't do that, that's not cool" kinda make you sound like someone who's never played mods for a game before. What Blizzard is weird about with their games, other developers are completely fine with. Blizzard's always been very, very weird in regards to mods with WoW. I think the only time they should realistically even have to worry is when something big like Nostalrius happens, but there isn't really a feasible way for Turtle WoW or others like Ascension to even get that big. And yes, I'm aware of their own legal obligations, but I think those restrictions that they made for themselves harm the fanbase in the long-term.

    Xaryu, I don't think they're implying that they think they own the IP by arguing their content is highly transformative. They're probably arguing for Fair Use / Copyright rights. There's loads of mods out there that follow the same kind of ideas. Technically speaking, Blizzard has been fine with this before in regards to other games like Warcraft 3: Reforged (and to a slight lesser extent their other RTS games), granted each situation is different from the other.

      @@NotTheWheel So the IP has more to do with the idea, rather than how the game is coded or what engine it's on. The place where this begins to get muddy is when a modding community, like Turtle WoW, begin to incorporate their own unique ideas or additions to the game. This could be in the form of dungeon changes, map changes, raids, class design, etc. One can argue that it is an entirely different game, albeit still under the WoW IP.
      Having said that, Blizzard undeniably owns the Warcraft IP. Do I think Turtle WoW or other projects, like Ascension, should be taken down though? No, not at all. I don't think Blizzard has anything to worry about, because it's a very niche community, and it's offering different gameplay, so there is less overlap with what Blizzard themselves are providing. The case with with something like Nostalrius was different because Blizzard was actually planning on producing their own version of vanilla, and Nostalrius also just got a bit too big.
      I hope that, eventually, Blizzard changes their stances on modding communities for WoW, because in the long-term it will potentially be very important. Blizzard isn't necessarily immortal and could someday die down and have to shutter the WoW servers - so having modding communities build themselves over time is important. We see this happen with numerous other games all the time.

    I'm playing "the devil's advocate" here, but people just wanna play WoW and have fun, without having to spend money on it every month PLUS every ~2 years on it...

    • @readifdumb
      @readifdumb Місяць тому

      I'm sorry, but do you realize how much money goes into WoW? Compare any WoW expansion to another MMORPG. I've played a lot of MMORPGs, and to have massive content updates as big as WoW every 2 years with even more to come over the course of those two years is unheard of for a lot of MMOs. I think the only level of scale that's even close is FFXIV/ESO.
      FFXIV netcode and servers and content updates by comparison are not even that amazing, and yet people eat that up, deal with all its microtransaction, sub cost, and expansion cost, and say it's the best MMORPG ever. Even with Dawntrails story being hit with a lot of negative reviews, people are still eating it up. With WoW right now you get MoP Remix, Dragonflight, in a couple of days prepatch for War Within, WoW Classic, WoW Classic Cata, WoW SoD, WoW Hardcore/SSF... All for one sub price. I'd argue that is more valuable and worth more money than FFXIV, especially when you consider how much content you get... More transmogs, mounts, pets, and content in general.
      ESO is probably the best value for a MMORPG though. You pay one massive price, comparable to that of a AAA deluxe/platnium edition, and you get every expansion + the newest to experience, with no sub cost. Next to that GW2 offers a very similar price structure. However in GW2 I know for a fact they have more p2w than WoW/FFXIV, where you can just buy gear pretty much, and I assume as much for ESO, even though I'm not sure.
      Path of Exile has the best pricing structure, with no p2w, unless you count storage as p2w, and just cosmetics, with free updates. However if you compare content updates in PoE to WoW, PoE basically requires you to replay the same game with small changes every season, with the hope of a potential big update that adds a new boss, but that's less common.
      While yes, you're right, that WoW could get away with no sub, the fact that they have a sub allows them to keep on top without having predatory monetization strategies like Diablo Immortal, gacha games, or korean MMOs like Lost Ark... Which are free, but you pay the price with your time wasted while others bypass the grind that was made purposefully frustrating and not fun, with daily login rewards/daily quest that are the same thing each time, that you repeat over and over to upgrade gear, just to have that gear break, making you want to end it.

    Without private server you would have never enjoy classic, hardcore or sod but instead would still eating blizzard retail shit forever. Turtle WoW benevol team make so huge and work compared to the small indie company which in front of the shame, had to strike the trailer. However it will not stop Turtle and vanilla+ hype like vanilla itself at the time of Nostalrius (but too bad, Blizzard will not be able too shutdown directly the server like they did with Nostalrius at the time).
    Turtle WoW actually purpose an experience at years of what Blizzard purpose to his poor players : a real community, events, no bots, no cheat, no pay to win, games masters, real classic+ updates. And Blizzard will not be able to get back the hundred of thousands of players back that choose Turtle WoW today until they give us a similar quality product which they haven't been able to give since 15 years.
    But hey, if you guys still want to support the sexual equality and milk drinking small indie company, you are all free to continue playing a pay to win, low server budget, very bad and very unbalanced recreation of Ascension WoW with the updated guild UI in same time than we discover the 40 man T4 raid version of Tol Borad on Unreal Engine developed by people who actually like WoW and not only money.
    And by the way, as a great defender of intellectual propriety, i hope you will delete all the low effort reaction video with very low added value that you did on your channel.
