If it's all that "classic", then why is there no dedicated server software available? Let people run their own servers like back then. Would've fixed the issue of only 3 being available at first.

That would make this version less transient. Can’t sell another version later if the previous one is still chugging along.

Nah, worse. They only have official servers, no dedicated option, and there were only three up at one point. I don’t know if any of that’s changed, but since I own the originals, I just refunded it and will play those when I need my fix.
