Vanilla World of Warcraft Video Announcement (Patreon)

In the post-Starfield video haze, a number of projects spawned and died in the course of about a week.  That was the main reason I've taken a minute to get around to writing up an announcement for this project.  I didn't want to confirm something and then change my mind.  At the time, the idea wasn't quite clicking but some things have happened since to really affirm my decision.

So for those who are new here: since November of 2022, I've been weighing the pros and cons of various QUICK video ideas to follow up the Skyrim video (after all, why would the Starfield video count as being longform?  It's only gonna be an hour)  The main contenders of this discourse ended up being Cyberpunk 2077 vs. Classic World of Warcraft.

Now before anyone feels robbed, here's why WoW won: the game has had millions of players, yet people ask me why I would want to make such a video.  It's also extremely fertile ground, basically being uncovered in this format.  And it's extremely well-documented in terms of developers talking about making the game.  Ideally, I'd like Cyberpunk to age a bit and for more information to come out about it before I commit to doing a big project on it.

The problem is, right now I don't feel like working on anything else.  I had some ideas jotted down to make before March and none of those have been meaningfully worked on, because I'm making pretty solid gains on the WoW project.  My mentality is, if I feel like doing work on something, I'm not gonna stop myself just because I think I could be making progress elsewhere.

So I will be upfront: this sounds like a terrible idea, and I probably won't go for it unless someone can make an extremely compelling case for why it wouldn't end in cataclysmic disaster.
