Is this the greatest expansion in video game history?
Has anything ever come close to topping this?
yeah, TFT
Everything TBC added was shit and ruined WoW.
Vanilla is the only good WoW game.

i second this. Vanilla with current graphics would be noice.

Only thing good to come out of TBC was all therule34
Actual great expansions are WC3:TFT and D2:LoD

I don't even remember the vanilla story half as well.
>>340842156
Not even close. Brood Wars is a good contender though.
>>340842156
>>340842156
No.

"Hi I'm a /v/ poster so I must go against the consensus and say that TBC is absolute trash and did nothing for World of Warcraft".
>>340843250
*unimportant.
>>340842342
New concepts and features were pretty shit, yes, but the raids were the best in the history of the game.
>>340842881
nice try
That's not The Frozen Throne
>>340842156
AFrican Kingdoms
No, that's left 4 dead 2
>>340842156
not even best expansion of that game. Wrath.

fuck you, that was an expansion pack sold at full price and it wasn't worth it
Guild Wars Factions
>>340842465
>current graphics
You mean this cartoony bullshit? Fuck that. I'd be fine with new graphics beign an option like on retail, but forcing them on people would be an incredibly retarded thing to do.

Wrathbaby: The post
I agree with the PvP things though
>>340846196
>Wrathbaby
>implying all those things didn't get even worse in wrath and continued getting worse and worse afterwards
Go vanilla or go home, bitchboy.
>>340845551
>only good battleground, ALterac Valley killed and ran into the ground
should have taken that one out and it wouldn't be so obvious
I agree I FUCKING loved the burning crusade, the musical score was fucking sublime - based Uelman, it's such a shame since they decided to use strings and drums for everything.
>>340845551
>mostly pros listed as cons
Spotted the nostcuck.
>>340846196
>I agree about the PvP things though
so you're a sub 1500 shitter then who blames resilience for not being able to win?
I remember getting on my guildees rogue with CTS and shitting on cloth in a cheap shot with CB evis, resilience was awesome.I miss crits on my arms warrior in vanilla though
>>340846436
>wow i want the game to get easier its sooo good!
lel
I disagree.
>>340846196
Do you actually think the catchup mechanics was a good move by blizzard? lmao spotted the actual wrathbabby
>>340846490
Nice and balanced Yuri
>>340846480
>getting 40 people to mindlessly press a button somehow means hardcore skill
So you basically never played during vanilla as I assumed.
>>340842156
Anyone been to the general wow forums lately?
It's literally only threads sucking blizzards cock and anyone who disagrees gets downvoted into oblivion.
The only people left are diehard cucks who continue to pay a sub fee to get zero content in return and rabidly defend LFR and any other shit change blizz has introduced since cata.
Truly the game is lost.
>>340842465
>>340846153
You do realize those are completely optional, right?
And all it takes is a second to switch between old and new models. Doesn't even need to restart the game or anything.

Its certainly one of the best, but...
I think as far as expansions go, this one takes the cake.
>Massive amount of content for an expansion
>Highly contrasting with the original game, feels like a new adventure rather than just an extension of the original adventure
>Absolutely beautiful art direction, creativity, and uniqueness; Morrowind literally does not have SHIT on it
>Some pretty entertaining moments (Fuck you, Sheogorath made me chuckle)
>Probably arguably better than the vanilla game
>Pretty much an acid trip from the start to the very end
As far as adding unique, new content to a game goes, Shivering Isles nailed it.
>>340846635
>getting 40 people to mindlessly press a button
>mindlessly
So you admittedly never got to experience anything above molten core then?
>>340846834
Too bad they are removing numbers on healthbars in Legion.
And it isn't optional.
Forced to mouse over for anything but percentages.
>>340842156
GW1 had some great expansions
>>340847227
>what are addons
>>340847282
Don't remind me.
>GW1 flopped dead once GW2 launched
>didn't live up to any of the promises
>felt like a wow clone
>everyone left GW1 forever
>>340846883
No I've raided up to Naxx (killed only a few bosses) and that was one of the most tedious things in WoW history. Not because of a skill barrier but because of the stupid enforced grind.
>inb4 b-but grinding resistance gear takes skill!
>>340842156
>Introduced daily Quests, catch-up mechanics, Arenas, and resilience
>Best video game expac let alone the best wow expac
>>340846883
You're a nostcuck if you really think everyone knew what they were doing in vanilla. When we first attempted C'thun we were wearing nature resist. When Death and Taxes was the only guild to kill Patchwerk and they didn't release the strat we were attempting him with feral druids eating the strikes. A lot of tanks thought quel serrar was a good tanking weapon and spammed sunder armor to generate threat.
>>340847338
I'm sorry that was cruel
>>340842156
It had some stupid retcons, but gameplay was a step forward compared to vanilla.
WoTLK on the other hand had better story than BC, but gave little into gameplay if you don't count the whole DK thing.
>>340846834
>You do realize those are completely optional, right?
No shit, that's exactly what I said, dumbass.
I want this "arenas ruined wow" meme to END.
Arenas are far more fair than BG's, arenas are about skill and BG's are about farming.
Only baddies/pve players will contradict
Step aside

WAKE UP!
