WoW Emulation is a new beginner-friendly community in the making since August 2023 for anyone interested in experiencing older, now defunct releases of World of Warcraft.
Our focus are the initial releases from the vanilla version in 2004, the first expansion The Burning Crusade and the second expansion Wrath of the Lich King.
In our community we develop software and tooling allowing anyone to experience the original game, using the original client software.
Our community does not support the Classic WoW releases, as we do not intend to interfer with Blizzard providing a more modern experience of the old game. Instead, our focus is on archival, and enabling the wider community to keep the old game alive and a most wonderful experience for young and old alike.
- 🗨️ community discussions are open at all times
- 📫 you can reach us via mail if you require direct assistance
- 👨💼 @danielsreichenbach is currently the primary caretaker
- 🌱 since the seeds to grow this community were just planted in August 2023, we kindly request to have a little patience with us while we bootstrap things
We are looking 👀 to grow our community and welcome anyone with a solid interest in old, now defunct World of Warcraft releases. Since we are merely a newborn, a wide range of options is available
- a community manager helping us to turn this place into a warm, welcoming environment
- fresh developers looking to make their mark in the world
- season engineers knowing how to scale up big
- testers, users, generally anyone providing feedback and willing to share their expectations
