Yeah, well, it's not because of that, but because I can see our site is slowly turning into reforged as well, people are more interested in reforged models, WE, modeling tools.
It's just a matter of time until classic becomes history...

Sure, there's always gonna be those ppl who are in it for the new stuff but that doesnt mean that classic is becoming less valuable than it actually is dude. Its where the heart and soul of this modding community revolves around and I cant see modding heroes such as UjimasaHojo, PROXY, or yourself throwing the towel just like that. Take a look at classic wow; tho officially unplayable for a decade, it still fostered a community greater than its modern iteration. Don't give up mate!

You're right, but at this moment people are more interested in reforged. It will take to for the classic to 'recover'. If there is a chance for recovery now.

Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for the reforged myself, I like the new models, cause I love to play campaigns over and over, I'm not interested in multiplayer, but there are things that are so wrong with the reforged...

Hey guys, I don't really know why Reforged is such an abomination that it grosses me out even hearing a word from it. Anyways, I have large groups and involved in it, Russian and CHina, underground, who are strongly disciples of the classic. So don't lose hope. From my point of view, Reforged will die out early than classic itself. The intensity of models and rip models across the internet cannot be matched by the small volume of Reforged models and stuff. You know I am also ripping stuff and producing HD models too on dark parts of warcraft communities to empower a Classic Forever Campaign.

And that EULA thing will just killed Reforged honestly. Me switching from the golden and simple but lovable Classic to rushed, profit-based, Reforged is like killing my own childhood with pieces of coins.

Classic will live on guys! :)

I guess the main difference with those 2 versions of the game right now is the sheer lack of productivity with immersive custom maps/campaigns in classic on our part. There are thousands upon thousands of shit u can create on classic but they're never really put to good use anymore unlike the old days when Lord of the Clans or Rise of the Blood Elves were made. Can't blame anyone tho since we're all getting older here and no one has as much time as we used to; even Tauer has gone AWOL.

@Ether as much as I appreciate what you and those guys are doing, using rip models will never look good in classic wc3 for me. They can't fit.

@Hardtime True. Tauer is not gone, last time I heard with him he was working hard on group of models, ready to be released. So expect his 'grand return'.
