To put it in perspective...

WoW in 2004-2008 (before WOTLK fixed most of the retarded design decisions of the WoW team):
- Exclusively tank & spank boss design (sometimes with a small twist in TBC)
- Half the specs not viable
- Autistic grind for gear
- Massive amounts of time wasted on travel because no RDF (or flying mounts pre BC)
- Tutorial parts of the game (leveling) took literally weeks so you could get to the relevant parts of the game
- No balance in PVP - Vanilla didn't even have arena yet some classes managed to be completely worthless in PVP, and TBC arena is unarguably the worst state competitive PVP has ever been in
- Fucking boring as hell quest design - nigga you really expect be to read all dis flavor text shit?
- Boring-ass classes with 1 button "rotations" any retard could play successfully
- Stupid as hell itemization with spirit one every item and agility on plate, what the fuck were they thinking?

Vanilla babbys are truly the worst.

You realize leveling was a core part of the game, right? WoW is a journey, in some way raiding in level 60 is basically the same as at level 30.

no they are not. and that is the problem. Blizzard think everyone is retarded. but infact people are now way more used to games with great depth.

People now know how to min / max etc. in vanilla wow people used wasd to turn around and mouse click attacks.


Anyway it makes no sense how blizzard tries to dumb down the game so much since people really do not need it to be simplified. it was needed more back when wow released in 2004. lol

fail devs.

The only people who thought this way in 2004 were children and stay-at-home moms who had never played an MMO before.

Leveling was always a tedious grind that existed purely to milk as much subscription money out of scrubs as humanly possible.

I can only speak for myself, but I have never played a game like this for the purpose of exploring it's world and going on adventures. The world is static and the quests are painfully transparent busywork. If I wanted a game that felt immersive and exciting I'd play a single player or small scale co-op game that had stuff like freedom of choice when interacting with NPCs and the world around me and, oh I don't know, fucking collision detection.
>>
>>680807971
>I can only speak for myself, but I have never played a game like this for the purpose of exploring it's world and going on adventures
As you said, you can only speak for yourself. I suggest you look up Bartle's player type theory, which explains the motivations of different types of players of MUDs and MMOs in a pretty general manner.

or they are logging every entry, kill, chat log like a normal company would and just searching their master list from details from the screenshot. Their advanced methods are a cover-up for them just tracking the shit out of everything.
>>
>>680808370
Good boy.
>>
>>680808348

I'm familiar with it but I don't fit a type, I seek what suits me based on my mood and the game in question. My point is that there are infinitely better games to explore and adventure in than an MMO with an onslaught of cookie-cutter quests, little to no interaction with the world or the people in it, and a facerolling combat system.

Some people like to take a 4x4 off-roading, some people like to take a finely tuned sports car to a racetrack, but if you're taking a 4x4 to the racetrack and having a blast, odds are it's because you just don't know any better.

I quit wow in mop when i get a 3 day ban for killing people flagged as pvp in the world.
There was a group of people,most likely scrubs who i was following across the leveling zones(i was the same lever range as them).
I mean like wtf, is world people not allowed?
When i leveled if i was pvp flagged it was an all out battle leveling, a rush of adrenelne walking around the zone,waiting to get ganked or to rap e some wanna be. Totally casual enforced

PW was fun as fire mage because vanilla had old rolling ignites which would stack so just one mage would get all dmg(and threat). Crazy ignite ticks could continue for minutes, but usually threat cap forced us to drop ignite and pass it to somebody else.

FUCKING. THIS.

Dickheads wearing nostalgia goggles needtofuckright off. The ONLY reason WoW was"awesome" back in the day was because it was NEW. There was NOTHING that came close to grabbing you even close to it(EQ fags can fuck off). Back then EVERYTHING was new. EVERYTHING. I don't worry about these cunts gettinglegacy servers though, their cause is led by a PROVEN liar and idiot in Mark Kern and a silly littlespoitl fuckboi calle Chance Morris. Got to admire that Sodapoppin queer tho, he milks you dumb cunts for 1000s of $ a day WHEN HE IS ALREADY A SPOILT RICH KID due to his families money. And don't get me started on the rich kid black retard Nick, that cunt is an out and out leech and that utterly retarded skank GF of Sodas with her anorexic legs, canoe-sized feet, huge nose and terrible skin.

What the fuck is wrong with you people? Do you really NEED to see how much fucking strength you have as a mage?

It's got loads of real issues for you to attack them on, but this is just nitpicking to the extreme.

I got massive amount of ragewhispers for all the ganking I have done. It was so fun to troll people. You could actually prevent people from joining instances because they had do ride there and manually enter the portal.

Haha jonnet ei pelannu retail vanillaa, koska jonnet ei muista.

General playerbase in private vanilla server was pretty mature because most of the players had played vanilla back in the days. Now retail wow is full of kids who want everything right now and blizz gives it to them.

-you say WOTLK fixed design decisions but that's when their numbers started dropping...
-many bosses had complex and unique mechanics that required the entire raid to know what to do; yes they got a bit more in depth later on, but that's one small point.
-by not viable, they were just less than ideal at certain roles. you can still play them and do fine. yes, in naxx and hardcore content you needed to play to your class's strong points, but that made sense to a lot of people, instead of just making it so easy that everything works
-difficult grinds make for a more rewarding experience. making things easier takes the fun away.
-no flying mounts and teleporting...people were forced to explore the world of warcraft....wow...."time wasted"
-leveling isn't the tutorial part of the game....it's half of the game itself.
-PvP was rock/paper/scissor based but not entirely unbalanced, of course some classes were better, but no class was "useless". and lots of people prefer it. also, remember that thing world PvP? that was pretty cool
-the newer quests have fancier animations...but the old quests were challenging, and many required grouping up. not sure why you think they were boring.
-they've been reducing the number of skills in wow....so...? ..also the game's been made easier all around and old WoW requires understanding the math/numbers/matchups for your class
-random items were fun, disenchant them, or use them, you could say the nature resist random greens were worthless before AQ came out and suddenly people needed NR sets. they allow for specialization and fun.

Old WoW was a more challenging game back then, and didn't have convenient tools to teleport into dungeons or skip content. And since it was challenging, people had to group up to overcome challenges, communicate to pass game knowledge on to newer players, form guilds and organize (40 man!) raids. It was so fun.

kek
me and many of my friends have been playing vanilla wow and tbc exclusively on private servers since 2010~
personally I haven't played for more than 6 months or so at a time, but I always get very into it, it's the same raids and whatnot but i'd find new guilds on new servers / projects
the game forces you to make friends to do 5mans, you even end up creating networks of friends to get ready for raids at max level (gear up in ubrs for example), and then you gotta create a community (guild) or join one if you want to raid at end game level
thats what an mmo is suppose to be
tbc still had this sense of community, because of gameplay i prefer vanilla (its just hilarious, i don't care much about who has 0.0001 reaction time like a elite god)
for me personally this aspect kind of died out in and around tbc which is why i gradually switched over to private servers, i felt i would log on wotlk wow and just queue up for stuff, didn't like it so i quit :/
i would say you're entitled to your view but it's actually retarded and you're wrong. vanilla wow is a great game enjoyed by many
>>
>>680819997
i think everyone agrees that the introduction of LFR etc killed off the most important part of WoW. there is no server community these days, no guild loyalty, no need to make friends etc. as Towelliee the streamer and others pointed out you can literally log in and do everything the game has to offer in your own garrison, it's really remarkable they thought garrisons were a good idea. that's the thing i'm most saddened about.

X-realm stuff killed the community feeling. I loved playing on private server because I would meet same people every day in battlegrounds or raids. You would know who's the good player and who's the bad.

I quit retail back in TBC when we killed illidan and sunwell was still months away. I got disappointed how blizz constantly nerfed everything and made game easier for kids.

In vanilla you really had to work for gear. I spent more time farming consumables for naxx than raiding itself.

My fondest memories of WoW are from 2008-2009. Was it truly better? I dunno. The nostalgia goggles refuse to let me see it objectively.

7 runs on my hunter at lvl 70

Too bad I can't go back and tell my past self that mounts would become account wide in MoP

My favorite thing about pre-cata is how shit always escalated in PVP servers. A little bit of ganking often led to large scale battles.
