Message: [QUOTE="YuriSukiSan, post: 35477, member: 97866"] It's mostly disliked because it changed the formula so much before WoW MMORPGs were designed in such a way that they actually revolved around the players coordinating to achieve their goals as a community rather than solo play. As cool as Vanilla is, because it is an exceptionally well made world, it basically ensured anything but a WoW clone wasn't going to be made until very recently. It was very sad, that's all! There's also lots of things you can critique, they basically fired half the team on launch for no good reason other than corporate decisions, threw their ethos and game design principles out of the window for money very early on, and honestly a lot of the mistakes and the problems the game has been facing or suffered from over the years were implemented as early as the first expansion. And even the first two expansions whiched followed were just repackaged content that had already been developed by the first team. You hear people talk about vanilla+ or Turtle WoW but that's what WoW was originally planned to be before they got greedy. It's way too much to go in too! tl;'dr is that most of the old generation MMORPG players I know are unhappy everything is now a WoW clone because of the precedent it set rather than a classic MMORPG [/QUOTE]
