I swear that we are all of us caught in a time loop right now. It’s not 2019, it’s really just 2004, when City of Heroes was just a few months old and we were enduring the last summer before World of Warcraft released. The wheel, she keeps on turnin’.
Anyway, it’s downright fascinating — in a we’ve-been-here-before kind of way — to follow the conversation in the WoW Classic community as to what races and classes each person is planning to roll. Nevermind that this MMO has been out for a decade and a half, everyone’s treating this question as if it’s never been asked before. And darn it if I’m not right there alongside of them. Gnome Warlock? Tauren Shammy? I can’t decide. I’ll probably have to roll both.
So when WoW Classic arrives at the end of August, what character are you going to create, assuming that you are on board for this grandiose experiment? Remember, Death Knights and Demon Hunters need not apply.
Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
