Yes

It is awesome until you understand that most equipement expect a TCP or UDP header; Then, with IPv4x, they find none, and drop the packet;

Protocol ossification is a real thing and the main bane in this topic

You never have the private key, only the ability to ask something to encrypt/sign something

This is a serious question: have you ever consider killing people ?

Do you know what it takes for plants to grow ? fertilizer

Do you know how can fertilizer be produced without animals ? Oil

At least of the previous couple US election, "people" paid more than a billion dollar each wanna-be president

That is investment aka corruption

Intelligence is rarer than ever

And the underlying problem is that newer world of warcraft sucks, no ? So when people ask "give us wow classic", what they really want is "give us a nice version of the game"

And the team failed to do that multiple times

Is this wrong ? Probably

>And the underlying problem is that newer world of warcraft sucks, no ?

no. retail has more players than classic. they just had a massively successful expansion release.

>So when people ask "give us wow classic", what they really want is "give us a nice version of the game"

no, they want classic. you are re-learning what blizzard finally learned. people literally just wanted classic wow.

So what, they want nostalgy ?

Classic represents a different design philosophy. One that still appeals today. It has nothing to do with nostalgia. Or games like Project Gorgon wouldn't be so appealing to people.

So we are back to what I said earlier :p

People do not want "classic": people want a "good" game that has some specific characteristics

>People do not want "classic": people want a "good" game that has some specific characteristics

as long as those "specific characteristics" are literally and exactly what classic wow is, sure.

Kinda. I think people want "classic WoW" because they aren't able to articulate what, exactly, would need to change with WoW to make them happy again. But they can pretty easily paint to the old version and say "I liked that, bring that back". I think it's plausible that you could (with time and effort) design something that isn't the same as classic WoW while keeping the players happy.

>I think it's plausible that you could (with time and effort) design something that isn't the same as classic WoW while keeping the players happy.

blizzard tried to do this with the retail version for literal years while people kept saying "please, i just want classic wow."

now, if you mean that it is plausible that those same people would play a different non-wow mmorpg that shared some aspects of classic wow, sure. but that is drifting pretty far from my original point.

They wanted _classic_. There was an active vanilla underground private server scene. Those players all went back to Blizzard when Classic dropped.

Hopefully: yes

If the client (read: chrome) does support that (and prevent its desactivation), then zscaler and other shitty things are made even more useless than what they are today

I watched star wars, so I know how to fly a spaceship

Is it not the business model of these companies ? Bill per token and stuff

NIH = more token = good for business
