This music honestly almost brings tears to my eyes. I was a freshman in college when WOW first came out. Endless nights gaming and meeting new people. Was some of the best times of my life.

[@Roamr1720]

same.. i resub every halloween and stay a little ways past christmas, just for the nostalgia. IF at Christmas was a thing to behold. Now its no longer a hub.

[@OGstatus23]

I feel the same nostalgia. I haven't played in years but may try for a bit just to try the experience again.

[@garysmith9006]

Same here. I can still remember grinding with my hunter to this music wondering what adventures lay ahead of me in the next zone and what would lvl 60 feel like. Random encounters made for life long friends. If I could go back to 2004 I'd do it all again in the same way. I miss vanilla wow. I always come back once a year to play around but life and kids have my attention now.

[@richardashendale922]

Haha! OLD

[@Nolan.Collects]

When I first played WoW with my cousins back in 2005, we really didn't know what we were getting into. We all rolled night elves, explored Ashenvale, so much mystery and fantasy, we were stepping into a new world. Then there I was, a level 14 Druid, standing on the roads just right outside of Astranaar, staring at a Lumbering Armored ?? Tauren. He charged me, one shot, dead and laughed at me. After that, my cousins and I decided to reroll as Horde. We played nearly every expansion of WoW after that, made a LOT of friends, had a lot of late night filled with questing, raids, farming, leveling alts or just plain hanging out in Orgrimmar near the AH. Those will forever be a part of me. I've lost a lot of interest in Wow, a few of us played Classic but it wasn't the "same". The player base has evolved, there's too much min/maxing involved and the game really lost it's innocence, that's something only people who played vanilla through wrath can really understand. But I will always remember this music, being an innocent player getting skull fucked by that big ass Tauren Warrior.

[@lorefort]

I think we all have a similar story lol, and that's what made it so special.

[@AllNamesWasTakenlol]

Yea, the min/maxing is the biggest problem. If you play for fun, and explore the game without maxing everything youre not even allowed into other groups. Made me quit classic very quickly.

[@Saiku]

Good times man, good times. I too have lost interest in WoW, and classic indeed was not the "same". I listen to this when I need a relaxing nostalgia trip. I miss when games felt so magical.

[@avonperera2187]

I had the exact same experience starting out as a NE hunter. After that beatdown re-rolled Tauren Shaman

[@lenwey923]

I feel this man, I'm alliance through and through - but still - the sentiment is the same. The game is different not because of the mechanics, but because of the players... it's just not like it was - no one cares about the fantasy/innocent/exploring side of it or the immersion, everyone just wants their loot and to win. I donno maybe I'm just a grumpy old gamer haha!

[@J3rr0ld]

Soundtrack is making me feel like a teenager again when I just started playing Wow!

[@Arbiter902]

That era was the best in my life, now a days most of us are married and have a lot of responsibilities... sure we can play games but not for 12 hours a day :)

[@STARLIGHT_KSA]

Then what's happened to all that fun now ?!

[@yok0hama447]

You’re so right, it’s like “the good old days” I went back playing Classic, it was nice, but it was not the same as Vanilla. When you’re young and experience something like this for the first time you can never get the same thing… I guess this is why people in general always say that things where better when they were young simply because you didn’t know as much as now and your life was far more easy with nothing on your mind. And as you said, you could really escape from life playing vanilla, once of the best times of my life as well.

I grew up in Spain, far from Blizzard. When WoW came up, I was in college. I obsessed over Blizzard. 10 years later, I made my dream come true and moved to California and got a job there. Sadly not the company I fell in love with anymore. Nonetheless, walking around all the artists and devs who made WoW was a breathtaking experience for me.

Blizzard is still a great company making great games. Dragonflight is awesome.

​@eodyn7 lmao it is such an evil company you have to be getting paid to promote it

[@SoyoyoS]

I relate 100% with the experiencie of many people here, if you started Horde, Ashenvale was the introduction to facing "real people" enemies in WoW, as some say you just has to get peak awareness mode to just stay alive in-game, and survive enemy's ambush, winning a 1v1 duel was an amazing experiencie which soon lead to enemy players call their friends so you had to run, to just find a group of other Horde players that eventually join the skirmish and you end up pretty much in guerrilla warfare for hours versus the enemy faction, through the entire zone... it could easily end up in 15 vs 15 people open world battle... It was amazing, Ashenvale was amazing! This music brings all those pristine innocent memories back!

[@alexandrehenriques5958]

This 4k music is the best! You can really hear the pixels

[@bustdetector1738]

Rolling up in “contested” territory is where the fun began :)

[@restinginn9906]

Whoever composed the original ashenvale music - Hats off to you. One of the best soundtracks in gaming. Also - the background animation is gorgeous!

[@casual_citizen]

As a Horde player, Ashenvale was the first pvp zone I experienced back in 2006. This will always be the zone I remember the most fondly from my time playing as my brain was at peak awareness for hours after I entered with my orc hunter. I felt stalked by Alliance druids, rogues, and other vile red nameplates I got a glimpse of in the distance as I tried to stay out of sight. I quit play after MoP and I will never return as the magic of playing this game is all but gone, but man do I miss the days when I used to play. For many reasons it was the best period of my life. It's the closest I've been to childhood bliss as a young adult and WoW played a big part in that

[@mms__794]

Ashenvale is the best wow zone! amazing OST, amazing art, amazing lore, amazing quest chains, and was my first starting zone....Im still in deep love with this even when Im 40+ years old

[@herranonym5725]

Honestly it was great but looking back, it was mostly "these guys have been corrupted, slay 40 of them" XD

[@Carnei]

Havent played WoW in several years, but when I randomly clicked myself in here, memories just flashed before me. WoW was incredible in the beginning. There was nothing like it. Millions of players. And a ton of friends.

[@travisnunya7960]

Love it!! So many fond memories from when I first started exploring teldrassil forest thinking that was going to be 90% of the game and when I got on a boat that connected to Azeroth I was in for a BIG surprise!!! As soon as I got cheetah form I ran around every single zone just to explore!

[@marioveenstra8608]

I have long since stopped playing WoW. I used to play it a lot, copious amounts of time in truth. But there's a few memories that will stay with me. The first time stepping out of the crypt in Deathknell. And the first time setting foot in Ashenvale. The aesthetic, the music. There's something hauntingly beautiful about this place. It even made me switch to Kaldorei later down the line. ❤

[@FantasyAmbience]

[@MrJaybird379]

Listening to this brings me back to being on my first real pc, playing my night elf hunter, leveling trying to learn to kite things. Good times, i really miss those days and i dont think nothing will come close to those days and that fun i had back then

[@AmbientWorlds]

Can't replace those memories! I wish I could go back and relive them.

[@Gisborne1990]

now every new mmo is about who can hit max level first, knowing everything before a game even launches and guides for everything. MMO's will never be the same again because the players will never be the same again.

This was one of the music tracks my best friend/sister sent me (the opening of this video, i mean). The other, and the last thing she would ever send me, was Lament of the Highborn ... I cry every time I hear that song too. She passed away in a tragic accident while on a photoshoot with a modeling agency.

I did try shadowlands and the first couple of weeks was good although it quickly made me loose interest again. I think that was the last time I will try to play it.. Even though they change some of the things I really dislike. The feeling in the game is just gone. Even in classic that feeling isn’t there.. Sad 😢!
