Vanilla WoW
    #22032842 -

Anybody here play Vanilla WoW? I've been playing on Nostralius lately, and it's so much more fun than the current state of retail WoW, and it's free!

heard of star wars galaxies? That was the ultimate MMO that WoW replaced. The depth was amazing

Don't want to jack your thread but to me WoW quickly became "right click, press 1, 2, then 3. repeat"

Yeah, I always heard SWG was fantastic. I think Vanilla WoW is the best version. Maybe Burning Crusade is an improvement. It's certainly a lot better than the current version. It definitely got worse over time after a point.

SWG is still around if you wanted to try it. Its in a somewhat primitive state since its been reverse engineered by fans, but its still pretty fun. The community is still developing the game so it'll keep getting closer to its original glory.

Maybe you're right about vanilla...the expansions were when it went downhill.

Part of the magic in WoW for me was the sense of being part of such a massive community. To the point where that one extra purple matters greatly or the sense of privilege when you get to raid with the good players.

I don't think I could ever go back to it. It would simply be memorabilia. Ever since I quit WoW in 2012 I've been waiting for the next big MMO. This seem like rare gems when you have to compare them to EQ, WoW, SWG, etc.

This is about when I quit wow for good, right before selling my character for 5k


WoW was never the same again. They've killed it. Nothing will beat vanilla WoW.
Raiding Naxx at level 60 with a bunch of hardcore raiders was the pinnacle of PvE encounters in any game at that time.
PvP in vanilla was in it's purest and most ideal form, I think. There were balance issues all over the place, but it was never as fun as it was after Vanilla.
The first xpac was ok but after that shit started going downhill in a hurry..
At the exact moment they started turning it into a more casual friendly game... everyone gets an epic! Everyone can PvP at roughly the same levels by facerolling buttons! Let's nerf ALL the raid encounters so even the scrubbiest of raids can take them down and experience the content... everyone gets a trophy!!

My days of WoW are over for good. I tried playing on a vanilla server with some old guild mates, but it just wasn't the same.
I had lots of fun, got out while the getting was good and made a slight return on my investment. So I'm satisfied I think.
Played that damn game for like 5 years straight. It's a completely different game now.. no bueno.

Wow started to get boring to me when they started bringing in battlegrounds.  The World PVP made the game fun, angry, scary, etc.

That and the massssssive nonstop battles in tauren mill.

Think thats what its called, I cant even remember it was so many billions of years ago.

I had a lot of fun raiding molten core also.  That was the latest raid to exist when I quit.

Yep World PvP was my bread and butter.. after Arenas and shit came out it pretty much disappeared.

I remember when my guild was rushing to be the first guild to open the AQ gates on our server.. this was in late vanilla, before Naxx came out, post BWL
Opening the AQ gates was a monumental quest line that required multiple hardcore people or even guilds working together to accomplish it..
Just one part of it was farming like 42,000 bug corpses in Silithus. Another part was doing a full BWL clear in 3-5? hours.. I forget the exact time. Then there was tons of world event you had to complete There was like 30 other parts.

Anyway there was a horde guild that was basically on our same level as raiders, although we were #1 on the server they were just behind us.. and they were also competing with us to open the AQ gates.

So every time we had to do a world raid boss or take down the world dragons (also part of the quest line).. they would have spies in our vent server and every time we attempted a world dragon they would come in with like 2 other horde guilds and just camp the shit out of us. So we started recruiting other guilds to come flank and guard us while we were doing the dragons.

One attempt ended up with like 4-5 alliance guilds and like 3-4 horde guilds, probably over 300 people all clashing while we were trying to take down a dragon.. ended up crashing the server lol.

Anyway when they were doing their 5 hour BWL clear, we learned that they wiped like 4 hours in and were running back, so we all went to blackrock mountain and then camped the fuck out of them as they were trying to walk back into the instance, lol. We ended up fucking their 5 hour clear and then went and opened the AQ gates ourselves.

Good times. Also all the PvPs in Stranglethorn.. and yeah Tauren Mill was awesome

I loved the fist 3 expansions or so.. man.. when WoW first came out (Beta especially) I was blown away, FUCKING BLOWN away. Man, just had not seen any game fleshed out and brought me into an rpg world like that before. But as many have said, its not the same, a lot has to do with catering to casuals. That and it being old as fuck
