It’s a cozy game. I also made so many characters until I finally fell in love with the mage class. I just portal between places to avoid the travel time. Nice vid.

The sheer amount of utility skills the various classes get is really interesting. Mages create portals, Warlocks can help summon others, Shamans can walk on water, etc. It honestly makes Azeroth feel more fleshed out with stuff like that. Thanks!

Classic WoW is great but I wish it was still closer to vanilla/tbc days when people were genuinely clueless and even going through dungeons was a challenge. Cataclysm in particular neutered the "journey" aspect of the game because not only can you take on multiple mobs without worry and solo every single elite because you're already a beast even by level 10 in pre-patch but also despite the questing experience still being relatively great and fun to see the revamped zones and questlines the dungeons are so hilariously nerfed that something like RFC that would take up to half an hour with a random group in vanilla I genuinely blazed through in five minutes by using RDF for the first time ever two weeks ago, it's BIZARRE. Ever since I was a teen back in 2008-2010 I fucking adored the slow and weighty adventure-like levelling experience of Azeroth just as you mentioned, nowadays it's very tunnelvisioned and streamlined to the point where you can do everything solo and never interact until you hit 85 and have to join a guild for raids, but even that is not needed anymore with how well organized most realm discord PUGs are these days lmao.

I can believe that. Classic WoW has a far better new player experience than Retail any day of the week. For me, the journey in something like this is what gives memories. I’m gonna remember my times doing the run back for Blackrock Depths lol. I don’t know everything there is to know about WoW and it’s dungeons. My experience right now is that of what you described and it honestly makes the experience more fun overall. I’m kind of soloing my way through the game at the moment with the frequent random queue dungeons for fun.

That’s called Remix lol That’s coming to Retail right now as an event
@Arenumberg 3 ай бұрын
It's also likely it'll come after cata - remix is basically an experiment - one I imagine is a testbed for stuff they can do with older content for retail, as its nowhere near an experience of the expansions as they should be. So leaves room for Classic to carry on (and its new and old flavours to come) and of course for more remixes if it goes well.
@MegaMadVladMMO 3 ай бұрын
I am curious about why they did the Remix. If what you suggest here is what it is, then that makes some sense. But I'm also wondering if Classic Cata is where traditional Classic ends. Hard to say. Blizz might not even know at this exact moment what happens after Cata in this instance. Only time will tell.
@Arenumberg 3 ай бұрын
@@MegaMadVladMMO Traditional classic ends with the end of Wrath, Cata remakes the old world entirely, condenses the talent trees, to their last recognisable form before Dragonflight, and those old world changes make its Azeroth functionally the same (missing expansion lands, of course) Many people expected that they might not do Cataclysm at all if they were not interested in continuing classic beyond the old world - but I personally think if they did Cata there's no reason to not continue.

The modern classic wow 1-60 is Era. The players left in era are nice and helpful. Should have tried that for the real vanilla experience... or at least closer to it.
@MegaMadVladMMO 3 ай бұрын
Yeah, I had a few things I was looking at before starting my journey through Classic WoW. Did I want to try finding a group every dungeon, or queue up for a random dungeon to save time? Wrath Classic also had Joyous Journies enabled to speed things along as well. The decisions were all made with making sure I could get a video out in a more reasonable time. It took me 60 hours to get from 30-60 so I can only imagine how much longer it would be in Classic era. The other thing I looked at was that, while yes, the game changes with each expansion, I was still able to get a fairly similar question experience to that of Classic Era. That said, I do plan to play Classic Era at some point when I have a group to go through it with. Likely won’t have a series for it like this one though lol

It's hard to appreciate Blackrock Depths with random groups and the instant teleport to dungeons. If you have a group that isn't full of 110km/h speds, it's by far the best dungeon experience in game.

Lots of dungeons are cut up as well - Maraudon is hella long but RDF basically has you kill one boss near the start as an entire run, a few later on in another RDF, and another one for the a few ending bosses. BRD is another example of that.

@@MegaMadVladMMO I have to imagine so, one boss will grant the RDF completion bonus so they leave. I don't think theres a reason to do so otherwise unless you're targetting an item for locked lower level pvp or something, but that's not something ive ever seen.

Well there was a few reasons for this. The first one being I don't know the layout of Eastern Kingdoms and how each zone connects to each other since I'm still new to this stuff lol.
