Is WoW Forever ACTUALLY Classic Plus? (The Brutal Truth)

Is WoW Forever actually Classic Plus? It's a question that I've been mulling over for some time. World of Warcraft is in a precarious state at the moment. We really need a W. Whether it's classic being considered "dry" by many people in the classic scene, or Retail World of Warcraft not delivering, it's hard to know what to do with yourself as a WoW player in 2026 during this drought. WoW Forever represents a brand new opportunity: they can reinvent what it means to play WoW. But, can they do this correctly? Can they walk the path T WoW did, learn from their mistakes, and create an evergreen horizontal progression system like OSRS has? MMORPG's are a delicate thing. In this video, I really get us all into the mood of what it really means to be a WoW fan, and hopefully show Blizzard some things they've forgotten! Let me know your thoughts in the comments below - What is classic plus to you? Does WoW Forever qualify?
