I’ve been looking into private servers so I can play WoW without paying blizzard and came across this private server that has a great reputation for its community and the fact that its open source. Maybe we can get a Lemmy guild going and play? It’s called Chromiecraft www.chromiecraft.com/en/

Sounds intriguing. But you have to be careful sharing info like this. Blizzard is ruthless when it comes to shutting down resources they consider to be a threat to their IP.

it has 6k stars on gh, I guess Blizzard is aware

After being on this Lemmy instance for a while now, I can unequivocally state that I would never want to play WoW with anyone here. But thank you for linking to another WoW service. I enjoy checking them all out to see what they do with the game.

Thanks for the heads up! I’m one of those weirdos who thinks Burning Crusade is like peak WoW, but it’s hard to find good private servers focused on the era.

Have you tried Turtle WoW?

Valmond@lemmy.world on 21 Aug 18:22 collapse

Guess I gotta do that now!

It’s Vanilla +, with extra races, class combos, and zones inspired by pre-BC lore. Definitely worth a try!

I wholeheartedly agree tbh

lich king was decent but it felt like the start of the downward spiral

Lich king is where I stopped. But once they started adding in all the heirloom gear in all the benefits for super easy casual players the game stopped being as fun. I’m saying this is someone who is a casual player too. It lost all challenge. I’d be fine with the dungeon queue system, if you at least had to be in the area of the dungeon.

Will do, thanks!
