Intel core 2 Duo E6600 is processor released in 2006 , and intel i5 in 2009.How can those be great processors and basis of great computers now in 2019?You can basically buy new processor for 60-70 USD that is better than that, like Intel Pentium G series that is very good value for money.

WoW Classic is actually not demanding at all, and it is less demanding than retail WoW.

I didnt get my point. I5 is way more powerful then an old Intel Core 2 Duo. That is why I'm amazed

[tiptravel]

Thank you for notifying me about the game, I'm just a fan of it

I have know for quite a while about people running private servers without the patches or up to certain patch, due to lack of time i didn't delve deeper but i cannot imagine what "classic" would mean at this point. I don't think asking money for this is a good idea, unless its a sanctioned official thing, but i rather play something else at this point.

Yeah private  Vanilla servers are still very popular, that is why Blizzard decided to release Classic servers ( starting with patch 1.12)as naturally they want their piece of cake, as they saw that there is still huge demand for Classic Wow.

Regarding asking for money, all you have to do is to have active subscription and you have both retail and Classic WoW available.And if you dont want to pay WoW subscription with a real money, you can always pay with gold, and it is fairly easy to farm it in retail WoW.For the last 6 or 7 years i haven't spent 1 cent on WoW, all my gametime comes from ingame gold.

BTW, if someone plans to play Classic WoW and wants to reserve some cool name, you can already do it, since last night.You can only reserve 3 names though.

OK, about how much in game time do you need for the game to pay itself? I imagine this is farming items and selling them, but is this allowed in game or outside? I remember games like EVE online kinda allowed it in game but not sure about WoW.

[Caluci]

These Requirements are minimal features, but there will be all different. In this game you need a powerful computer

Never liked this game, it's terrible

Time needed to farm enough gold for subscription depends how many characters you have, right professions etc. The more experienced  and set you are, less time is needed.For example i am passively making every month for approximately 2 monthly subs(worth 30 dollars), by simply logging in every day with my 10 characters and spending maybe 10-15 secs on each character every day, just doing their profession things. So basically negligent amount of time, but of course for that you have to set it up first.
But if you are good and skilled, you can make much more by boosting people for gold, and that is also totally legit by Blizzard.

For new players that can only do basic farming , i would say it needs maybe 1 hour each day , farming herbs, ore etc.

All this is done in game, and Blizzard added option to buy game time with gold few years ago, so everything is totally legit.And not just that, you can buy any blizzard game with the gold(Warcraft 3, Diablo 3, Overwatch, Starcraft 1 &2,WoW, Hearthstone card packs and even few partner games like COD, Destiny 2 etc).

Not really, Classic is less demanding than retail WoW, and even retail WoW is not too demanding.For example, i am playing retail WoW( and raiding, that is  by far  most demanding for PC) on a PC that i bought 4 and a half years ago ( i5 4460 and nvdiia gtx 960), i am playing normally without any issues whatsoever and that is far away from powerful computer.Few days ago i tried classic on a laptop with AMD processor  and integrated GPU and it worked normally.

Now with the drop of ETH prices many farmers are getting rid of their rigs so you can get powerful graphics card  cheap, making it even more accessible than before.

Can't wait WoW Classic to start tbh

If anyone wants to come and raid with me and my admins, we'll be on Golemogg server, horde side

Be sure to join us for some raid and pvp fun

I will be on Golemagg too, but alliance side

Seems like those 2 PVP servers (Golemagg and Shazzrah) will be most popular EU English realms.

[Rikafip]

Blizzard added another EU English PVP realm, Gehennas .Make sense, as PVP realms are most popular ones and Golemagg and Shazzrah were already full.

Hype is real!
