The south sea islands is called GM Island 2. It was used as some kind of GM hub in vanilla

[@iceman3317]

Honestly this guy doesn't know the first thing about WoW. A lot of things were added to fly over in flight paths. He said the dancing troll village was for horde, but those trolls aren't even part of the Horde until Cata and he obviously didn't know it was added so flight paths weren't empty fly bys.

[@123Sunwell]

The troll village was re-introduced in Cataclysm and became a quest running zone for Alliance players. These trolls became pawns of Garrosh in his war, and they're crushed by the Alliance eventually.

[@mightyraptor01]

Danm I never knew about that troll village until now!

[@albratgaming2348]

There are a few "cutscene's" that show these locations as part of "flyby" cameras.

"Re-Introduced" it was never removed. It was one of the many things they added in Vanilla so that we weren't flying over empty spaces on flight paths.

[@iceman3317]

[@malicant123]

This is why WoW will always be my favourite game. Just wandering through the world is an experience in an of itself, and with nearly 20 years of memories, for me it's nostalgic too.

[@hypercynic]

It fascinates me that basically every MMO does instanced worlds. It makes everything feel like a video game... not a cohesive world to exist in. It's one of the major things that made it impossible to truly feel engaged with FFXIV. That and being able to teleport literally anywhere, instantly. Sure makes the game world feel insignificant when travelling across the land is kind of non-existent. Exploration is one of my favourite things about these games. Assassin's Creed Origins is a great example that rewards people who are curious to explore every inch of the game world.

[@michel_ig2934]

South islands are part of ahn qiraj door opening quest chain

I was going to say that this is for a questline. If I'm not mistaken it's also how you get the book that allows you to understand Draconic.

[@tenkowal]

IIRC it was mentioned by game developers that they have placed the dancing troll village (and airport next to Ironforge) just to make some decoration you see while flying.

[@Lucy-dk5cz]

tenkowal this is correct. This video contains many in accuracies ....he’s bad

[@mooney3350]

Yep, I remembered this place precisely because of this. Also found it a nice touch of Blizzard to include these trolls (Shatterspear tribe) in the Battle of Darkshore in BFA, finding the horde a work-around to flank the Night Elves. In story it's described as some smuggler path from Felwood to the Trolls, and later in Darkshore you'll find Shatterspear encampment in the north part of the Darkshore, since they moved in with the help of the Horde.

[@AestheticMonk]

I checked out retail the week before classic released and the troll village is now accessible by land and are at war with the Night Elves. Something tunneled through the mountain and through their village.

[@gmunderminus9601]

Well it's always nice to see players discovering new areas both on retail and on private servers but you have only just touched the tip of the iceberg. As a lot of players have already stated, the southern islands are part of the AQ gates quest chain. There is a Naga NPC that gives you a swim speed buff if you are on the quest chain that allows you to get out to the island with out being killed by fatigue. I would recommend in future videos splitting them into "can be accessed by players" and "can only be accessed by GM R2+". Things like "GM Island", "Old Outlands", "Original Karazhan", "Developer & Programmer Islands", "test boxes 1, 2 and 3", "orignal azshara crater" etc can all only be accessed by using GM commands (and with some, imported maps). There are plenty of accessible locations for players with out the GM commands too that you could bring up in your videos too that would be fun for people who have never got into the exploration side of wow. You just need to be careful and only use things like noggenfogger / goblin rocket boots and engineering cloaks to help you get to those spots. Look forward to seeing what else you discover.

I always believed that the troll village was meant to be like, their starting zone, since they have basically a shared starting area with Orcs in vanilla, and the Echo Isles weren't added until much later.

[@ChakatNightspark]

FYI GM island kindof Still exist in a way. But not as a Island anymore. GMs that are High enough Rank in GM level can Teleport to a GM building that is located inside a Dungeon that cant be access by Players as its blocked off. It is Mainly just a Empty Room with couple chairs and table with some candles. Thats all. Thats more or less what GM island got turned into.

[@sha1060]

8:26 it might be but Koiter already have a memorial in the Barrens. On top of a small hill you have a Spirit with a tomb. Also when you do a quest on the alliance side (the defias quest if im not mistaken) the npc says something along the line of "next thing youll tell me deathwing is alive and attacking the city" i think back in vanilla someone mentioned that the big lines of the story for the three first extention were already made so i wouldnt be surprise if they already started the development of certain areas like Hyjal

[@SouloDoloMusic]

#1. It has been over a decade since I've played, but I remember randomly seeing that place in the distance and getting there by using water-walking with a mount and since I was a Druid, I could use Seal Form to swim the rest of the way before running out of either health or fatigue (can't remember). I felt so cool being one of the only people to make it there lol. #4. I stopped playing before Cataclysm, but there was a way to get behind the map before that expansion; I'm pretty sure I actually saw it in part of the video. So many good times...

[@DelphinusVyse]

The part about Hyjal made me think, what if they made a WoW Classic: Director's Cut of sorts where they finished all the things they had planned for Vanilla that they ran out of time for.

[@Kknifepo1nt]

would love to see this, it would even include bc content, as bc was originally planned to be included in classic but later removed for the expansion pack. (search for hayven's videos/rip)

[@JuanPablo-rf4vo]

Classic plus with azshara bg, emerald dream, hyjal raid, grim batol, dragon isles, zul aman

[@TheBlackless]

That's what I thought, when they first said, that they will relaunch classic. They could do it all again, but with stuff they could not add because of the lack of resources or lack of time. I mean, they could still do it. I think it's possible that Blizzard could drop retail, if the player numbers remain really high and tries to get it right this time, like a WoW 2.0. But many of the old Blizzard crew/team are gone, so I don't know if this could be better. I would not like if they go back to the beginning because I love the lore and characters, but this could make WoW great again for everyone. :) Sorry for the bad grammar, my native language is german. :D

[@bobhazzard9514]

Back in 2005 or so I made my way into the dancing troll village by wallwalking before it was removed. Because it was inaccessible otherwise I was blown away to find an Alliance paladin just destroying the dance party. At first I wanted to kill him,. - but because it was SUCH a rare zone, we truced our Horde vs alliance fight, and I actually found his guild and their ventrilo info on their guild website. I hopped in and we chatted for about an hour about how cool the spot was because the trolls had a loot table and hit super weakly. Exploring the map was my greatest joy in the game.

[@valecrassus7835]

I assume folks have repeatedly pointed this out over the years, but... @2:08 Having done the quest myself, I can guarantee you are incorrect. If you're on the setp of the Scarab Lord quest line that requires you to reach that island, there is a Naga underwater just south of Land's End at the southern tip of Tanaris that will give the questing character a super speed boost, allowing you to reach the island without dying to Fatigue.

[@NWA-TjalfeTooStonedToAim]

6:06 Programmers Island ..also known as Westfall :)

[@RubyPiec]

I always forget Westfall exists

[@FallingOranges]

One area I can't believe is still in the game is behind Stratholme and contains an un-rendered Naxx surrounded by undead buildings as I think Cataclysm was the perfect opportunity to remove it and add the blood elf areas to the mainland

[@sleepydruid100]

Fun fact: if you go further south from that with the same method (Shaman, ankh, waterwalking and maybe mount/speed potion) you can get to the edge of the map where is no fatigue and run around there.

[@MrJonline]

old video i know, but no.1 although maybe not shown on the map, has(had?) an ingame questline that at a point required you to get there. It was part of the epic questline for the opening of AQ and method where provided during the quest to actually beat the fatique.

The south sea isle is part of the door opening of ahn qiraj quest.

[@YuyuHakurei]

The WKM pillar was not always in a pillar. In the original maps before the cata redesign it was a memorial you could visit somewhere in the Barrens. It was on a Cliffside inside of a cave. It seems they tried to move it over, but lost it because it got stuck inside of the map. The new maps are a long distance away from where the originals were. So anything notable needed to be cut and pasted over. A lot of things were just flat out deleted though. I believe who it was for is right though.

[@GabrielP]

Back before capturing your gameplay was an easy enough thing, I remember playing in "Vanilla" WoW and I was a Mage at the gate to Hyjal. I tried blinking in, and it worked! There was even a Gate to what at the time was listed as the Timeless Cavern, it looked like just space in a cave I wish there was a way to share the image from my brain so that others could know exactly what I mean.

Shatterspear village was intended from a developer's perspective to be something interesting to look at as you flew over it. A developer said so, mentioning they must be dancing for a good reason.

"Out of bounds areas" - Southseas Island. Well, someone didn't know vanilla. Those islands are part of the AQ opening event questline, and are meant to be way out there. Once AQ and the quest chain gets implemented, you'll find out how to get there normally. The various islands are still in the game and they still use in-game areas to test things, but they're no longer on the world map but instanced off, making them impossible to exploit to normally.

There is actually an out of bounds area that wasn't mentioned, and it's deep under water, south of Tanaris I believe? It's an area with gnome architecture and such but it's all the way down at the bottom of the sea and I *think* in fatigue territory so it is unlikely people would come across it.

[@phoenixdblack]

@@ToyokaX That is in fact the same area, but after the Cataclysm the South Sea Islands sunk under the water.

[@nexeus7302]

South seas islands was initially for questing as ghost back in vanilla. Blizzard had plans back then to add additional "zones", or partly from the zone to be as ghost and quest there, but they rushed the release and didn't make it to the final cut. Also they had plans to add a whole new pirate zone where you quest only as pirate and be part of the bloodsail faction (if you wanted), however, they did the cheap version and implemented only partially Bloodsail in Booty Bay. Blizzard had a lot of ideas that didn't make it into the game hence why you see all this unexplanable things around the world.

[@bookcadenb4584]

You can get undernearth Org, and it's massive nothingness. You can get underneath Ironforge and iirc it's completely fleshed out as a Zone itself.

[@Rowrin]

Yeah, can't believe old ironforge didn't make the list.

[@WormyMaster]

"Some people say it's part of the AQ opening questline but I don't know that because I'm not familiar with the questline". Dude, you did so much research on this, you could have very well watched one of the countless other YT videos detailling the questchain...

[@ZblockWoW]

The WKM room: me and friends hung out there on MANY occasions during Cata. We showed other players how to get to it and we never go in trouble.

[@Andreas16375]

People getting banned for going in there is BS, It's in the middle of org and you could easily clip into it, Not some hidden away zone you had to bug to get to At one point it was a very popular spot and everyone i know went in there, Doubt anyone ever got in trouble for that.

you somehow made the thumbnail look like a cringy fortnite video and thats kinda impressive

[@timbert4672]

I remember most of these out of bounds zones being accessable in a way if you had a shaman character by simply chain casting their far sight ability over and over again to get where you wanted. That's how I discovered many of these and a few others like a hidden zone under Kara.

[@jeremykothe2847]

Are you talking about the crypt?

[@timbert4672]

@@jeremykothe2847 Yes, far sight just went clean through the gate. Also, if you managed to get it inside the Kara tower from DW Pass, there was a smiley face drawn under the terrain beneath.

[@noahdoering9253]

I haven’t been to it since WoD, but the WKM room was accessible through a spot in the training area. It might still be accessible

[@triledink]

I remember the troll village once when i played on a custom Wow server and everyone spawns there.

[@enragedbacon470]

As stated before, the first one is where part of the "Scepter of the Shifting Sands" quest takes place. Its not used until the gates of AQ event

[@drpzor]

2 hours ago, nice :o just when I started digging into this more again xd I have been summoned to the WKM room like a few months ago, so it is definitely still accessible, though I don't know the means to do so.
