The focus on Hardcore realms in this article is very strange. Kinda burying the lede with the first fresh vanilla era realms being in China.

They better give EU / US a fresh HC server as well, Stitches is BOOMING atm due to NihiliumSF etc.
Even a Self-Found ONLY server would be awesome! Remove the bots, griefers, boosters, etc.

Can't speak for everyone and say "we all want that" but I sure want that.

Why is this article only mentioning HC Fresh over and over lol? pretty much nobody cares.

Vanilla FRESH thats the big news!

Comment by Donteventryit

oh now we went from

"its only HC, get rekt ERA boys"

to

"its only China, get rekt EU/NA scum"

lol you are coping dude. No way in this world China which allready had ERA just like EU/NA gets fresh and the latter doesnt.

you either cope with Vanilla Andies getting what they want or better prepare to be miserable in less than a month.

you are SEEETHING

Sadly I think your the one that's huffing the cope brother, We do not need a FRESH we need NEW content for classic fresh would die in a month it will go back to its normal player numbers that it has rn which if you haven't heard its pretty low.

ERA leveling zones are more allive than SoD for months now, go check for yourself. and thats on 5 year old sersers but sure, a FRESH which is ERA but with new phasing would die.

Just because you are a retail tourist doesnt mean others are. as i said prepare to be miserable. ill make sure to check back in in 4 weeks to see how you are doing. lool

Clearly you dont look at SoD servers just as much as I dont look at the era servers. Half those people leveling on the ONLY server thats playable with a decent pop will either quit half way or once they get even close to 60 will see the horrible econ and lack of any raid type other than GDKP no fresh 60 would EVER be able to work into a raid on that server. Not to mention 40 mans just are the worst....

Making new fresh servers for streamers is so silly when existing ones with less than 10 KT kills exist...

To be honest I really hope they don't launch fresh Hardcore realms at WoW Direct. The current realms have been growing a lot in popularity over the past several months and the economy is essentially the same as it was at launch. It feels like aside from streamer content and a brief hype period there isn't any benefit to a fresh Hardcore. Don't get me wrong, it is always fun to play any fresh server on launch, but it seems pretty clear that longterm it would be detrimental to the health of the game mode, splitting what is already a small playerbase amongst even more servers. I'm not saying never to a Hardcore fresh, but 1 year in seems very premature.

So china is getting era fresh should be the headline not hardcore lmao.
