WoW: Forever dev says the game is for lapsed Classic players

Blizzard world builder Matthew Armstrong said World of Warcraft: Forever is made for Classic fans and the millions of players whose accounts lapsed over dissatisfaction with changes to the game. He described it as an Old School RuneScape-style upgrade to the original MMO, not a retail experience.

• Armstrong: Forever targets Classic fans and lapsed account holders
• Dev calls the project an Old School RuneScape-style take on WoW
• He spent a year relearning how the game was made 20+ years ago
• His rules: convenience kills the journey; a game for everyone is for no one
