TAKE ME BACK BROS classic is not the same, blizzard should make a fuckin time machine

I wouldn't trust a time machine made by Blizzard.

OK, they make a time machine...and you still have all your knowledge of all the expansions bosses and content to come spoiled

>>712899991
they wouldn't come, you'd just keep going back

Zoomers don't understand how much of a hype time WOTLK was. TBC was fucking great and all but WOTLK was just peak WoW through and through and the finale of the WC3 story. So much optimism and the highest number of players. The dying years of the old internet too before it became a corporate shithole.

>>712898907 (OP)
reminder WotLK dungeons were dogshit

wotlk was pretty cool, ulduar was the best raid ever created in any mmo
the golden period went on until raid finder was introduced which began the steady decline of wow

Cringe, real niggas were at the BC launch. I still have my free poster block mounted on my wall.

wow was and has always been complete dogshit how long will it take for you to get it through your thick retard skull that what you actually want is the INTERNET classic

>>712898907 (OP)
Why would you want to go back to the worst expansion when the best is coming out in a month

>>712900334
Yes. It was a service provided and worth every single penny.

I never gave a shit about World of Warcraft, or indeed most big fad things like this (eg Harry Potter) but I do miss that... I dunno, singular cultural entity thing that society used to have occasionally. These days it feels like there's never a single "thing" that takes over for a while. We've retreated into those walled gardens MGS2 talked about.

>>712898907 (OP)

Wotlk sucked ass

I remember WotLK dungeons being the beginning of Blizzard making threat not really a mechanic anymore and everything in dungeons being these braindead AoE spams where the tank would aggro the whole fucking room and you never CC'd anything ever and any sense of team coordination was dead. I also remember this being the beginning of Blizzard making mana not really a mechanic anymore. I remember being kind of shocked when my priest briefly ran out of mana once. It wasn't as bad as whatever the fuck is going on with nuMMO mana management. I don't think you could go OOM in FFXIV unless you actively tried very, very hard. But it was the start of that bullshit.

It was also the start of Blizzard replacing all the flavorful mechanics with garbage. Soulstones were no longer souls reaped from your enemies and stored in your inventory. They're just an ability resource on the top right of your screen that may or may not be related at all to the idea of reaping the souls of your enemies at all. It's also the expansion that they completely got rid of priest racials.

Dragonflight was better than Wrath.

This existential dread I sit in every few days, propelled by painful shit like this.
I would love to just shotgun blast a load of art onto my wall, but I know I'm trapped in an eternal existence I can't actually escape from and there's just nothing I can do.

I wish I would have played warlock more back in Wrath

This is most of WoW. Don't look up why Kel'thuzard was just flying around in a giant space pyramid or why Illidan and Kael'thas were in the outlands.
Because the answer is literally because the devs thought it was epic and cool so they hamfisted it in.

>>712903864
>This is most of WoW
i dont remember kel'thuzad showing every 5 quest in vainilla, neither kael'thalas in outlands

>>712904249
There was an event where Kel'thuzard just taunts you every 2 seconds. It's just cheesy dumb shit they thought was cool in like 2004. The writing has been secondary until Cata when they started trying(Even thought it was bad) and pretending it's not is retarded.
It's so hilariously bad some shit looped around to being good like "You are not prepared"
People are just more critical about it because of WC3 nostalgia ending.

>>712898907 (OP)
WotLK was shit, we called you a wrathbabby then and I'll call a wrathbabby now.
Epics used to mean something, you didn't get tiersets by killing a loot pinata with randoms after winning Wintergrasp, raiding meant commitment, cool armor was a sign of status, when you reached max level you started with the first raid and progressed your way up to the current content instead of being given welfare gear to jump straight into the latest patch.
Fuck WotLK's design philosophy.

>WOTLK was just peak WoW through and through
naxx10/25 were pathetically easy
ToC is still the worst raid in the game's history
WOTLK in general was the beginning of retail game design where everything outside of raiding is piss easy, leveling is a joke, and classes are all homogenized

Wrath and TBC shat all over vanilla's design philosophy

I had a great time in classic wotlk. Four of my old friends came back to play, sure only one of them joined the raiding guild with me but they still logged in and talked almost daily for the first few months and farmed dungeons, that shit was nostalgia overload for me. Best expansion re-release by far
