It's just good, IDK what else to tell you
In the case of WOW the game has gone through tonnes of changes over the years so its hard to call it the same game.

World of Warcraft and its expansions used to come in a real box.

I just downloaded turtle wow today
I played 2004-2011, 2012-2013, 2015, 2019, and now 2025 will be the year of world of Warcraft.

Even though I play on private servers ignoring everything past Wrath, it's still not the same game.

I hit 19y recently, I started during the TBC pre-patch. I did take some breaks here and there, like, wod, bfa and sl were ass. mop was fine gameplay wise, but I really didn't vibe with the setting. If you told me I'd be playing this game in 2025 back then, I'd laugh in your face, but this pos outlived all other mmos pretty much, and it's actually a nice game.

I lost interest around mop. Manly due to literal nonstop guild drama which killed my liking for the game. I went through multiple guilds that all ate themselves inside out with insufferable drama.

Ooooh, my hc raiding guild from cata also disintegrated in mop. Turned out that guild leader's fiance was threetiming behind his back for fucking. He still married her after the guild disbanded.

There were vanilla pservers by the time Cata came out so close enough

I had a 29 year old woman try to groom me on this game in 2005, and another 35 year old woman in 2007. I was 14 at the time. I told the husband who was also playing at one point and I remember it causing a divorce. Man what a weird memory. That teacher shit isn't a meme, I don't know why I memory holed this for so long.

There was also weird woman drama in one of my guilds that involved cheating on her husband. One other guild imploded from some guy rejecting the female guild leader's advances. The other guild that failed was due mundane gear squabbling. I mean for fucks sake I literally just wanted to play the game but these retards make it absolutely impossible

MMOs seem to attract a lot of mentally ill women that want to throw their entire life away for strangers online. It was especially bad in the 2000s it seemed maybe because it was so taboo back then and facebook was still in its infancy

grinding that much for gear, reputation, and levels is fucking awful. Extremely outdated number crunching design. I can't do it, it's like a second job.

Vanilla WoW was the last good MMORPG. All the games after copied the expansions which were dogshit.

I hate it when people do this damage control esque conversation when they are afraid to speak in absolutes, because they might offend someone. It encapsulates the way WoW is now, because it does the same. Don't offend anyone, don't try anything cool, be as sterile as possible.
"I personally think it was... shi- erm... controversial.... but if you liked its okay, because [insert damage control here]"

At retail release, this game was my entire life from age 14 to 18, and later on got addicted again on a private TBC server, it really set back my life.

I played 2007-2009 (just before cata dropped) since then I've only played private servers. I was on Emerald Dream in 2014, Kronos and ExcaliburWoW in 2018-2019, and now Turtle and (formerly) Epoch this year. I quit Epoch because they disabled xp pausing to "fix" twinking. The problem with twinking was always high level enchants on lowbie gear but private servers never fix this. Going into 19/29 battlegrounds in BIS dungeon blues and world drops is not the same thing has spending thousands of gold on enchants. You can get fully kitted out in BIS gear with relatively little effort, the enchants were always what was wrong with twinking.

Swear I saw one of his videos was "why Shadowlands was good". How the fuck do people like this exist? Don't know Nixxioms deal and I made the mistake of watching bellular hoping for news updates since WillE seemed to not be bothering as much.

Monetization money. It was Bobby so far taking the blame, but now since there is no Bobby, they cannot make a good argument why its shit. Bobby was a shithead, but lets be honest here, he doesn't even know what the fuck is WoW.
They are just deathly afraid of saying the reality, that blizzard is employing trannies, gays and jeets to make the game into a leftist pandering machine, while they kicked out high IQ whites. There is not a single ounce of organic playerbase in blizzard games, and this applies to private servers too.

It’s quite chaddish. I’ve enjoyed 21 years of pure soul. I even still play the same character I rolled in 2004. I update my toons look every now and then to make him look older and more battle worn. Cucks will seethe.
