Nha. the game only got better. The experience became worse for some people. (including me). Just because it became more stressful. Well... "stressful"

raiding MC for months with green pauldrons while being the Hunter Class captain (it had another name lol) in the third best guild on Skullcrusher, talking to the guys from Last Resort and Method (? or was Method the good alliance guild, I forgot, there were at least 2 extremely good Horde guilds though Highest top tier in the world) was pretty fun.

I remember that point because later it was unthinkable you had 6 epic tier set items but green shoulders. But back in the day people frowned but it was funny and didn't care. Because there were no fucking dps meters and shit and people just felt you did good and helped etc. Even at the end when dps meters became a thing it was a tool to help you improve, not judge you etc.

But the +1h BG queues because you could queue to only 1 fucking BG at the same time while Horde has a WAYYY bigger population than Alliance was pretty shit compared to 5 years later. rerolled for it.
same for the party forming for a dungeon. timesink holy shit. If somebody left the group you could lose an hour.
same for the progress and content. (super mega slow progress made it look like there was a lot of content though)


etcetc


gameplay and content got 50 times better. The feeling playing the game 50 time worse.
+
nobody got time for that anymore. I was like 16 or 17 when I played WoW. Then I had 3-4 free days a week. (Which wasn't enough to be top tier )
I had a good night of sleep.

Fuck. Always when people talk about WoW I remember how we wiped for weeks on the first boss on upper black wing lair (was it called that?) with the fucking eggs and eventually the guild disbanded. That was such a sad time. Left the server and my hunter and never came back. Fuck Blizzard their laggy servers.

Yes, during vanilla times WoW was a pretty hard game at times and therefore all the more rewarding once you beat a boss/achieved something (even reaching the max lvl wasn't easily done). Until the expansions instantly made all earlier achievements useless and continued to simplify and dumb the game down to a ridiculous degree. The target audience nowadays seem to be 5 year olds.

Oddly enough you could argue the same thing (and there's a massive article on this in LiquidDota on this) is happening in Dota, and a lot of other games at that, the dumbing down of the game. Meh.

I get super nostalgic over vanilla WoW raids of MC and UBRS. Getting 40 people on the same page. Riding the edge of pulling aggro off the main tank. Competing with friends to see who could get the closest without going over (rogue, warlock, hunter). the fights weren't terribly complicated but each class had a specific role to play and the fights were hard. I was in a pretty good guild, probably second best alliance one on the server. We never finished UBRS. We got close a couple of times and it was glorious.

Yeah.
For me it's also stuff like tarrens mill pvp before battlegrounds were introduced.

Yeah those were good memories.
BUT I disagree with "vanilla was better" for PvP (I didn't do much PvE). TBC's arenas were super awesome. I loved WOTLK solo quests but I didn't like the PvP so I quit. I just started again a month ago. Hopefully PvP is good again but seeing the general consensus my hopes are not high.
I also agree with the general sentinement that cross-server stuff is the dumbest shit ever and killed anything ressembling server reputation, the sentiment that you were part of a few thousands players during vanilla / TBC were so good. This cross-realm feature is super shit.

I actually build a Knex machine to press a button every couple seconds. Fuck Alterac Valley indeed. That shit went on for hours and hours. The problem with the Knex machine was that it made so much noise I couldn't really enjoy watching TV or play the playstation. lol

The excess is so real.
if I had to describe his playstyle, it'd be a coked up rabbit with the attention of a goldfish injecting caffeine into himself directly through an IV drip. it's like a reel of random animated shorts where things just blow up randomly

Had an arena team in TBC called "AFK in Alterac". =D
edit: cant generally really play mmos anymore.
most have too sluggish/boring combat (maybe TERA and B&S aside), they take up tons of time, dailies "force" you to play well daily and you are too reliant on actually finding some decent ppl to play with.
