Still, there are many who yearn to experience WoW as it was 18 years ago.

Eventually, they relented, and simply implemented their own version of WoW Classic.

World of Warcraft Classic

WoW Classic largely follows the patch cycles of the original games, adding content every few months.

Blizzard has attempted soft seasons for Classic, allowing players to start fresh and compete on new servers.

To fill in the gaps, some players have taken to creating their own game modes.

Players can roll out the addon and sync it with the Discord servers.

Upon death, a notification is sent out to other users of the app.

Players are then held accountable to delete their characters that died, to continue participating.

World of Warcraft: The War Within (Season 2)

The mode has proved popular for streaming and content creation, growing over the past year.

Entire communities popped up around the mode.

The difficulty adds a new dimension to the game, and Blizzard has taken notice.

Well let you know much more about it soon!

Once a character dies, you will be stuck as a ghost, unable to resurrect.

Naturally, the player who dies will also be permanently dead.

The way Blizzard has been embracing player feedback of late has been really refreshing.
