I can't believe there are still 500 people working on it after all these years. The vast majority of people I know who played (myself included) quit after Cataclysm or thereabouts.
Seems to be chugging along just fine, they really made a gold standard game. They are even smart enough to dip into the nostalgia crowd who liked the older versions better with the classic servers. I honestly wouldnt be surprised if it were still an actively developed game in 10 years
They really did. I still remember the first time I logged in — pure magic. I've never felt that way about a game since.
Same here. Maybe it partly has to do with age, but definitely not only. I get super nostalgic about very few things - this game is one of them.
