The Classic version of WoW's second expansion, Wrath of the Lich King, is scheduled for release later this year. That WotLK Classic will follow the success of Classic and TBC Classic, many could already guess - it was a nobrainer in new German terms. After WotLK, as is well known, the first major descent of World of Warcraft
began.The following expansion Cataclysm could not really convince players, to put it mildly. So does it make sense for Blizzard to continue the Classic series with Cataclysm when hardly anyone is likely to play it? WoW's (buy now )

"Ion Hazzikostas:
"At this point, we would like to hear from you, from the community as a whole, what you would like to see next. We have a player base that has really made Classic their home, a lot of people have taken their characters from Classic into Burning Crusade and probably into Wrath. When that comes to an end, when you defeat the Lich King - excuse me, when you defeat Halion, the ultimate final boss of Wrath of the Lich King, you can't forget the Ruby Sanctum - do you want to start over? Do you want to try a different version of it? Do you want to take that character on a new adventure?
I know Cataclysm is the beginning of the end for a lot of people, I'm "out". But I would ask an interesting question: What is it about Cataclysm that you don't like? Was it the heroic dungeons? Was Firelands a bad raid? Was shadow highlands a bad zone? Was it LFR and dungeon finder from the beginning? The compression of the talent trees? What would it look like if we had Cata content with "some changes?

Soon we will learn what changes Blizzard is planning for the final raid of WoW: Season of Mastery.Hazzikostas knows full well that Cataclysm in its original form may be a wasted effort. He hints that changes could be made for Cataclysm right from the start - in other words, a Cataclysm Plus. What or if such a thing even happens, however, depends on what the community wants. Would you play Cataclysm Classic? Would you give a Cataclysm Plus a chance? We're looking forward to hearing your opinions in the comments.
