WOW WoTLK Classic does nevertheless have communities, the good ones are only WOW WOTLK Classic Gold super hard to get into, and so - if you don't allow it to be super hard to get into your community... you will just end up with a bunch of asocial self love fuckers. You have to wade through that endless swamp of garbage guilds to maybe eventually find the one which perfectly fits you. But as I said, that's a huge undertaking, super frustrating and super time consuming, something a lot of people are simply not willing to perform - so they stay in their asocial solo player bubble because...

It is just simpler. And Blizzard caters to them and makes it easier to stay in that bubble, therefore obviously more people happily get inside that bubble. The community won't ever have the ability to alter that again - if Blizzard doesn't induce people to stop being asocial they'll never be societal. WOW WoTLK Classic is btw no different in this regard. You may not own a group finder or anything, but people will still dismiss you just as easily as on Retail. You are going to require a proper guild there also or you will only maintain a 200 guy leveling guild without ever having played any of those people.

No, it's not"WoW's community" at all. It doesn't have anything to do with WoW itself. It is the simple fact that times changed and we are not in 2005 anymore. People/WOW players have experienced a myriad of (additional ) games during the past 15 years and also the MMO genre is not as powerful as it had been in the past. That feeling of immersion and wonder is goneleaving its distance to additional experiences/feelings. Those times you say did exist, yes, but in this context. That was a very different age with different technologies, different platforms, different link and distinct people.

You can't return in time and hope to revive the feelings. It's over, it is done. WoW isn't a novelty, we all know every single pixel of the map, every pursuit, each npc, every-everything. And that's why 99 WOW players out of 100 will not quit in amazement when starting a new toon from Elwynn forest: since we have seen the beginning zones 1000 times. It's a chore, for most WOW players. I am pretty sure that lots of frozen accounts would continue to be active if Blizzard unlocked free 120's, free allied races, 100% free transmogging, free realm migration, free faction change, etc.. I'd be enjoying WOW WoTLK Classic also, instead of waiting/hoping for another expansion.

If we had more resources to play with, I am certain that we would be a LOT more interested in playing WoW. However, in fact WOW WoTLK Classic is grinding to get small/copy-paste rewards. People simply stopped getting involved because there is nothing. Sure, some people can get it done, there is no doubt about that. However, you can not anticipate 2020 to be like 2005. We're different, the world is different. And WOW WoTLK Classic was experienced boundless times already. People who are on the lookout for the"core experience" of WOW WoTLK Classic need to cheap WOTLK Classic Gold proceed to another person and start a new journey on another game, in my view.
