Had similar thoughts.
I think a lot of people have rose tinted glasses on and simply don't remember how simple the game used to be and how far it's evolved since.
I am curious what they've done with the mechanics though. Some were broken by expacs, some were fixed, wonder what they rolled back and what they left.
- vbezhenar 7y agoThey rolled back everything except obvious exploits like wall jumping or macroses automating your rotation in one button. It's not pixel-perfect remake, but it's very close to it.
- pythonaut_16 7y agoSeems a little disappointing if they disabled wall jumps. Were there any wall jumps that were actually exploitable (i.e. let you do bad things)? Most of the ones I remember just let you get to weird spots in the environment.
- plopz 7y agoTheres still plenty of wall jumps, you can find videos of people testing all the classic WSG jumps on youtube. The classic wall-walking doesn't work, but that was changed during vanilla so its to be expected.
- vbezhenar 7y agoYep, that's a controversal point. I think that they still consider weird spots to be bugs and you should not be there. You can definitely abuse it on battlegrounds to hide flag where you could not be reached. Also I won't be surprised if there would be a ways to skip some bosses in dungeons.
- plopz 7y agoI'm sure for some people its rose tinted glasses. But I would think the consistent popularity of private servers over such a long time shows the real non-nostalgia based demand for the game.
