World of Warcraft: Forever Review So Far – Beta Impressions

An IGN reviewer’s first 30 hours with World of Warcraft: Forever’s beta left them optimistic ahead of its launch. Built on the original Classic game, Forever adds new zones, class changes and visual upgrades while restoring mechanics that the reviewer feels gave the game more depth.

The reviewer welcomes features such as parry, block, hit chance, weapon-skill progression and buying skill ranks from trainers, as well as slower levelling. They argue these systems make the game feel more like a role-playing game than modern WoW. This is an initial review based on beta play; the reviewer plans to continue to level 60 and update their verdict before the December holidays.
