Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

Preach talking about nostalruis on his stream
https://www.twitch.tv/preachlfw

he is a piece of shit that's pretty much all there is to it. sucking blizzard's dick and adopting the "you think you do, but you don't" argument.

"go back to nostalrius" *gives you the finger on stream*

He honestly has a point in that Blizzard creating and hosting official legacy servers would be a lot of work with little reward for Blizzard, but that doesn't mean there aren't any other solutions, or that they had to sue Nostalrius.

Preach is known to not be fond of Vanilla. Which is fine. But his opinion on Nostalrius doesn't mean much.

Lot of work vs little reward? At the end of the day it will earn then more money than it will cost them.

150K active accounts will still bring in over $2 million each month.

Youtuber who's income revolves entirely around people looking at his Retail WoW guides and Legion previews. Yeah, i can't stave off the expectation of bias.

I'm going to sound like a Blizzard defender here, but;

You're assuming every single one of those accounts will pay a sub to access it. Which they won't. Not everybody who came to Nostalrius came for a desire to play Vanilla, rather it was a high population, quality Vanilla realm people put on a peddlestool.

Also, consider; Regions. They'd need to implement a server for the US and EU Alone since they're in seperate datacenters. Then perhaps for the Asian Market. I'm not sure if Russians can access a general EU English one so potentially a third and fourth. And lets be honest, one of the best thing about Nostalrius was it was global. People from all timezones kept the server constantly active.

It would also crush the egos of the current dev team. People would see how much better the Vanilla dev team was and that WoW is now ran by a bunch of indepts.

Yet again for all those people who might not be subbing in the legacy servers, there are even more who did not play on Nostalrius simply because it was a private server and were afraid something like this would happen.
