Frozen Flame – a Survival RPG that needs a little thawing out

Posted By: Elena Walker - December 12, 2022

Frozen Flame is a multiplayer survival fantasy RPG, in a world once governed by Dragons and is now in the aftermath of what appears to be a post-apocalyptic world. It was released in its Early Access form on the 25th of November by fresh-faced developers Dreamside Interactive. I’ll be honest – my first impression was that the game looked generic. The style was immediately reminiscent of the many aesthetic copycats of cartoony an

Fueled up a chaotic couch co-op reviewed

Posted By: Ryan - October 28, 2022

Space-borne chaos or a shiny re-tread of old ground? Couch co-op party games are a small, but still popular, genre. As evidenced by games like Overcooked and Moving Out, there’s a need for one-to-four-player games that rely on communication, a willingness to make mistakes, and an almost sadistic urge to test the strength of friendships. Make no mistake, much like its chaotic forebears, Fueled Up will also put your relationships to the

Pokemon Killer Temtem? Ryan Reviews

Posted By: Ryan - September 26, 2022

TemTem - Pokemon killer? An indie, monster-taming MMO with PvP built into its foundation, and a full PvE story, was always going to be a sure bet for fans of the Pokémon franchise. Temtem goes out of its way to emphasise how much of its gameplay experience is focused around competitive play, so much so that it’s nigh impossible to escape, but, if PvP isn’t your thing, all is not lost! I’m not a huge fan of PvP in m

South of the Circle Preview

Posted By: Ryan - August 15, 2022

A narrative experience about the power of regret. Emotional, story-driven games like South of the Circle (SotC) are not, for better or worse, everyone’s cup of tea. Originally released in 2021 for Apple Arcade, it was developed by State of Play, published by 11 Bit Studios, and is a compelling story of ambition and love set around the Cold War. I played SotC on the Nintendo Switch to write this review and was pleasantly surprised by w

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Tempestfall - Swing and a Miss

Posted By: Alex - February 16, 2022

Swing and a miss, but literally. Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Tempestfall is a VR-exclusive action-adventure game. A game that I was super excited about, because who doesn't enjoy being a Stormcast Eternal! When the combat worked, it felt great, but the game didn't support that! I was super stoked for this, as a fan of all things Warhammer I leapt into the game with excitement, looking forward to playing a skilled Lord-Arcanum of

Blizzard Finally Responds to Vanilla WoW Demands

Posted By: GamerDating - April 26, 2016

On 10th April 2016, Nostalrius, a private WoW Legacy server went dark after Blizzard threatened legal action.

Nostalrius Begins PvP, Nostalrius Begins PvE & Nostalrius TBC and all related servers will be definitively shutdown at 23:00 server time on the 10th of April 2016

Nostalrius was a server running the original version of World of Warcraft from 2004, free of charge, It’s was Vanilla WoW’s most popular private server, running build 1.12, Drums of War. 

Nostalrius had more than 800,000 accounts with 3,242,751 character created and 2,000,000 website views monthly. It was run by a team of 30 volunteers who slaved away to ensure the gamers had the true experience of Vanilla WoW. Check out their infographic

The blow of legal action was felt across the internet and the rallying cry was heard as they announced the imminent closure and wrote an open letter to Blizzard. Currently sitting at 236,490 signatures, the letter has been backed by popular internet figure heads, Blizzard supporters and even ex-developers of WoW who have printed it the entire petition out and delievered it directly to the desk of Mike Morhaime. You can still sign the petition here.

Finally Blizzard have responded on the forums:

We wanted to let you know that we’ve been closely following the Nostalrius discussion and we appreciate your constructive thoughts and suggestions.

Our silence on this subject definitely doesn’t reflect our level of engagement and passion around this topic. We hear you. Many of us across Blizzard and the WoW Dev team have been passionate players ever since classic WoW. In fact, I personally work at Blizzard because of my love for classic WoW. 

We have been discussing classic servers for years - it’s a topic every BlizzCon - and especially over the past few weeks. From active internal team discussions to after-hours meetings with leadership, this subject has been highly debated. Some of our current thoughts:

Why not just let Nostalrius continue the way it was? The honest answer is, failure to protect against intellectual property infringement would damage Blizzard’s rights. This applies to anything that uses WoW’s IP, including unofficial servers. And while we’ve looked into the possibility – there is not a clear legal path to protect Blizzard’s IP and grant an operating license to a pirate server. 

We explored options for developing classic servers and none could be executed without great difficulty. If we could push a button and all of this would be created, we would. However, there are tremendous operational challenges to integrating classic servers, not to mention the ongoing support of multiple live versions for every aspect of WoW. 

So what can we do to capture that nostalgia of when WoW first launched? Over the years we have talked about a “pristine realm”. In essence that would turn off all leveling acceleration including character transfers, heirloom gear, character boosts, Recruit-A-Friend bonuses, WoW Token, and access to cross realm zones, as well as group finder. We aren’t sure whether this version of a clean slate is something that would appeal to the community and it’s still an open topic of discussion. 

One other note - we’ve recently been in contact with some of the folks who operated Nostalrius. They obviously care deeply about the game, and we look forward to more conversations with them in the coming weeks.

You, the Blizzard community, are the most dedicated, passionate players out there. We thank you for your constructive thoughts and suggestions. We are listening. 

J. Allen Brack

What does this mean?

Will we see World of Warcraft Private Servers? We hope so!
