Overview
- An anonymous MMO‑Champion post says a referenced video convinced the author that every new Forever asset is copied from later retail expansions and led them to decide not to play.
- The complaint centers on visual consistency rather than graphics quality, arguing that reused models would gradually make Forever indistinguishable from retail World of Warcraft.
- The claim is anecdotal and rests on a single forum thread and one video rather than independent technical verification of asset provenance.
- Players and creators are debating this issue inside the ongoing public beta, which Blizzard has framed as the window for feedback while the studio monitors player reaction.
- If the concern spreads it could reduce early player buy‑in, increase pressure on Blizzard to clarify asset and design choices, and influence beta changes before the planned launch.
