Last night I ran BFD with my wife and few other players. All very friendly, patient and skilled. We had a super amazing adventure. Skill mattered. Cooperation mattered. We had a blast. This game simply rocks, people. What this MMO offers is still superior to anything else out there.

sperglordxdlol isn’t so bad once you get to know him.
Its so hard that i have forgotten how EPIC World of Warcraft was in its beginning! Since classic release the same feelings came up like in my vanilla times.
With every add on a little bit of Warcraft vanilla has died… the game we play again today is so simple… simple things make so much fun again like running (the world feels so much bigger), the game is more difficult, exploring old zones and so much more…
I have spend over 500 days played in this game… but If i would login in Retail now… it would feel like a joke in my opinion!
Thank you Blizzard for bring us back our World of Warcraft!
I love it!
We love it!
Cheers

I would like to add, that I too came back after missing a couple of expansions.
I too remember the sun going down in Westfall. Awesome.
As I came back, I thought about what made this game better than the newer versions. The primary reason, I think, is that it is very hard to solo things. So you have to make friends, behave, group up, and defeat the mobs in unison. This creates a sense of fellowship. Of shared purpose. This is the great feat of Wow.
Modern Wow is essentially a single player game. Very little requires a group for anything. Instances are easy mode. Even in “heroic”. If you dont have the discipline to raid, then you can use raidfinder…
In Classic, there were no welfare epics. This is what I hated most about BC. Everyone could just wander into BC and get greens that were better than most items of my MC/Onyxia geared mage. Really? Did these noobs ever complete the ST 45 min. run?
What happens from here, I have no idea. Not BC please. But I thnk the game would still be fun without the reagents (Looking at you locks). And mages shouldnt have to sit sooooooooooooo long to drink between each fight. … Summoning stones would be nice.
Anyway, thank you for bringing this awesome game back.
with the setting of the harsh barrens sun, fishing off the dock of the small Goblin run port town of Ratchet. The ambience. the sounds of the tropical waters. the fishing bobber. and seeing so many other players going about their business. so much traffic and it’s so damned good!! 
In the game where we can nearly do anything, I love kicking back and doing nothing.

And the best part is that there is no Sperglordxdlol flying around on his spectral rainbow hippogryph (only 29,99$ in the Blizzard store). This is what I wanted.
Nice, was he too busy camping a layered raid boss for +400G per hour?

Truly magical… Getting quest to go to the logging camp. Ran all the way there and man did it take a long time. Then did quest and had to return to Goldshire. Then as a reward I am told to go back to the logging camp and guess what it then wanted me to come back Goldshire.
I did a few quests. Sadly as mage I needed to kite and split groups. OK for one or two but three with a caster. No chance. And I died and died. And then I waited for somebody to take out one and I got the other and I was called something dreadfully offensive. Whatever.
Trying to kill stuff but can’t find any cus of other players. No matter how I tried I was just unable to find any mobs as they were all dead.
The sun went down and it got dark and miserable. Man I hate the darkness. Logged out and played Tera.
Came back next day. Done all quests in Elwynn and at Level 10 to Westfall. Pulled a wolf and then a bird attacked me and died. Grave in middle of map… I just got the thing to res me. Makes no real difference. Decided to try kill a couple of boars just two levels higher… no mana and died. Then scarecrow things and couldn’t find any of the oat bags anywhere. Fighting them and dags and got real bored… just takes an age. And I have to stop drink, conjour drink food, bags full no idea what any of it is.
Nobody about now bored of music and remove headphones , I could cancel it but don’t need the sounds anyway. Nothing in chat really just someone wanting a dpc for the mines. No chance at Level 10.
Finally got to 11 after just grinding. I can’t seem to get about without tagging something. Can’t get any armor or fabric cus the mobs are scarce that drop fabric. Went back to Elwynn to see if I could get some cloth… still loads doing the Gnolls and Hogger mainly so no mobs and fighting over every scrap and commiting too much and picking up that pesky bear.
And the time it drags… and I reflect on my time here all those many years ago and realised I just don’t want to do this all again. It was a pain last time. Not cus of the explore, quests and grind, but for other players just taking all the mobs quicker than me leaving me to scrap around for things to do. As a mage and the need to drink there is no continuity and as I drink to get back the mana some hunter takes the mob that I was just about to fight. And there are no more. I then go a wandering and pick up an add that I don’t need and don’t want to waste my mana and by the time I get back the place has been cleared.
I can actually map out in front of me avery area where it will be busy and I wont be able to get a thing done Raven Hill, Lost Rigger etc. I just can’t be doing all that again.
Its a nice idea but I just do not have the time to keep fighting drinking and struggling with other players. I have moved on and so has gaming and its a touch faster and more furious and a load more interesting doing other things. I was reflecting on what I was doing when this game was first launched and trust me I wouldn’t play any of those games from the era now. They just are so dated.
So have your fun and enjoy the grind and the setting suns and whatever. I did this a long while back and I remember how painful it was to do anything. Mostly I can’t face the struggle of competing all the time. The game added flight paths for a reason and reduced mana costs and improved questing.
… and so in chat there is that question over and over and over… Has anyone seen the messenger.
And on that I logged out. No thanks.
This is not the wow i fell in love with.
Cheating/exploiting from lounch until now.
Layering and most of all the abuse around it ruined the classic.
#notmyvanilla
Ye, we p-bois been saying this for years and now finally everybody’s eyes are open. Color me surprised.
69th comment btw teehee
I play the game how I want too and do not let others with layering exploits or ah overkill define my play time. Quest, grind, dungeon, raids, do it yourself and if others get 60 before you or have great loot from buying in the ah or cheating in reset raids, don’t let it bother you, they cheated, it don’t matter . Love it 
I wake up 2 hours early or somethimes more before i have to go to work just to play some… I love this game:heart_eyes:
