Watching this cryptocurrency crash has been highly amusing

Edit: Man this new WoW expansion looks like it'll be pretty neat, will be fucking great to be done with Fel Green colours everywhere and get some variety back

From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

i thought the removal of 6 or 7 expansions aka wow vanilla was more hype than the addition of yet another, but what do I know

Pretty sure going back to vanilla will just make people realize that it wasn't a much better game at all at that point and a lot of features were pretty bad.

I'm very excited for classic wow, more so than i am for the new expansion. But i overall enjoy both, i think modern WoW has its charm and i still enjoy playing every expansion.

I'm sure some people are wearing some serious rose-tinted glasses and are forgetting all the negatives, but i personally am pretty free from nostalgia clouding my decision, i am genuinely excited for classic WoW.
I'd be playing on private servers if it wasn't because they could be shut down any moment ruining all my progress and if it wasn't because official classic servers are on their way.

I genuinely enjoy the vanilla experience, i mean i wouldn't mind if they fixed certain things but overall the experience as a whole is perfectly fine with me and exactly what i'm excited for. I do think it was a better game, or rather, i feel that it provided a better experience as a player.

Ideally i'll probably end up playing both, alternating between modern and classic WoW. Assuming we'll use the same subscription for both, if it's seperate subscriptions i'll probably just stick to classic.

Modern wow doesn't reward time spent. Mythic raiding is way too difficult/mentally draining for such little reward. The carrot on a stick is gone for me.

I enjoy Mythic+ and heroic raiding, i don't bother with mythic raiding

Clearing mythic+ with friends is just a lot of fun to try and improve and beat better and better keys

A group of friends and I are playing WoW right now and its fun. We will never get to mythic raiding and other stuff like that because it doesn’t really interest anyone. I’m going to try and convince a couple of these friends to get Monster Hunter for PC when it comes out, because that game is just Raid Boss: The video game – Now with amazingly animated bosses.

A buddy of mine played some WoW private server stuff and told me he definitely appreciated the quality of life fixes WoW's had over the years. Although I think he only played vanilla for 4-ish months before BC came out, so make of that what you will. I'm curious how Classic will be handled. If I had to guess, not well and people will be disappointed. But it's like that with a lot of games.

I have a 1080ti so hopefully no need for sli ^_^

and uh, i'm getting a zisworks x28 custom 4k120hz 28inch TN panel. still has to do the silly 2x displayport garbage to get enough bandwidth, but that isn't supposed to cause any issues with win10, even in stuff like fullscreen windowed etc. Literal 0 monitor induced latency (basically only pixel transition time and the time between screen refreshes, and with a scanning screen refresh mode you can mostly eliminate pixel transition time from the math).

he's cringe and unbearable often, but cringe is hilarious sometimes as well.
you have to have the right mindset about watching his stuff though.
