Vanilla is sooo boring though :p

I'm on WotLK server haha. Quite fun, but the population is a bit low/inactive.

I'm very bored with WoW. Don't have much time to play anymore. I'm actually considering giving up on it. Still need to check out this new expansion but I just feel... meh... If I do give up WoW though, I'll sell my gold :D not my chars

+1

I'm completely over WoW. Nothing going to lure me back I'm afraid. I kept getting excited with every expansion and then it lasts a month and I'm fed-up. CS:GO. now there is the new Heroin of gaming.

hahaha, no ways, simple and challenging, no facerolling dungeons or LFG tools. do it the hard way :D. The community makes the game and since its matured a bit a lot of the kiddies have backed off, made loads of friends, ganking all the hordies and all the good stuff.

Can already tell you how it's going to play out.

Re-washed TBC content, 98% of the players will be playing the new class just like they did when the DK came out.
Bleh, same washing different day.

I gave up on WoW last year in Feb already. MoP was fun, but the lack of new content for months drove me away.

I haven't played WoD and I'm not planning on playing Legion. I like the idea, but it's not enough to get me back.

The most appealing thing about WoW for me has gone since LFD and LFR came out...the social aspect. Guilds just raid and then everyone minds their own business.

Back in TBC and WotLK (I started in TBC), we did stuff together as guildies...all that's gone. You're just someone to help grind gold for the guild bank and clear a raid for more loot.

I miss my old guild :(

Totally agree. When I started playing in TBC our guild was pretty tight. We would have our raid nights, but then during the day, the first place you would check for dungeon mates was within the guild. It kept everyone close and helped us all to practice with one another as well. There was nothing better as a main healer, than getting your main tank to come and do dungeon speed runs for a few hours. You could get into a rhythm and just steamroll stuff at top speed. Joking and trolling each other along the way. Like purposely pulling an extra pack, just because your tank seems a little lazy.... haha, the good old days.

I really do have such fond memories of my relatively short WoW career. I stopped officially raiding at the end of WotLK, and stopped playing mid way through Cata altogether. Once my life got too busy to fit in full raiding weeks, the game just started losing its ultimate appeal. And our guild, at the end of WotLK was the top on our server and something like top 200 or so in Europe. It felt really good to get there from basically nothing, without guild hopping, just hard work and practice from almost everyone.

Agreed here also. The older guys usually get it spot on. The people who played vanilla, TBC but also Wotlk.

I'm an old WoW player, well I'm getting old IRL also :)
My Latency sticky and other post in this forum dates back to 2009 and before, but obviously I started playing way before that.

The community, the social aspect and the friends you made and the time you spend just about doing everything together was what made the game so special.
Sure WoW had to evolve to get new players as the original ones grew old :p That's why its not what we remember it as, fell in love with or well rather got addicted too.
We grew up, found real lives and got responsibilities.

Sure TBC was pretty awesome, but do not throw WotlK away. Personally I feel if you raided during Ulduar and in particular did Hard Modes on 25 man then you experienced one of the best raid Wow had to offer. I'm even pretty sure the masses would vote it as the best raiding time ever in a word wide poll.
Of course you will also have a big % who would go back to TBC times. Personally I also do have fond memories of that.
IE I'm sure Karazhan would come up.

Icecrown Citadel was not to bad either. Personally I stopped after Cata, Blackwing Descent, but did get asked back later to help do Ragnaros 25 HC in Firelands.
There ended my raiding career. It was most of the time hardcore 25 man raiding for top server honors and world rankings, so it was more like a job.
If you a more casual player then you will most likely have a different pov and opinion.

I did pop back in for a month during the later states of MOP after a friend ask me to check it out with him during a holiday, but that was just leveling a Panda :p Was not bad and the area was certainly pretty, but it was not the game I fell in love and the community I loved.

Anyway, I went dreaming a bit back in time here now. Point being it is not only the game that changed, we got older and we changed also.
I've played a loads of games over the years and will continue to do so. I don't play WoW anymore and probably will never go back to it, but I still believe in giving credit where it is due.
There is no doubt in my mind that it is the best game ever made. The world that Blizzard created there is absolutely insane and you have to respect that.

Best of luck to Blizzard with this expansion and gl to you guys who are going to play it. I hope you enjoy it.

WoW finally looks good again - as in it has the potential to be as great as TBC. I've unsubbed for now: Draenor just didn't do it for with garrisons, and I also feel the TBC version of Draenor looked so much better (zomg Nagrand). Hopefully I'll have my new pc setup in the UK by the time it goes live.

Yep, I loved TBC.

WotLK was certainly my favourite time of Raiding. I loved TBC because I played a Boomkin when it was very underpowered and underrated and managed to convince my guild to take me along, by playing it so hard that I could keep up, while still bringing some spot heals, some tank kitability, a battle res and that juicy 5% crit to party members. I will never forget the day in SC on Leotheras, that I topped the meter on our kill, while still contributing to Heals and battle rezzing. Our resident Mages were most upset.... I didn't feel like telling them about the increased nature damage that he takes during his dark phase.... haha.

But WotLK was where our guild hit its stride in raiding, and so our successful raids contributed to the awesome memories. The introduction of heroics and server first achievements together ,was pretty great too. Bah, anyway, I am leaving this thread alone I think. Feeling a little bitter-sweet at the moment.

You must have been in a very nice guild :).

the graphics seem a little bit backwards in some parts than WoD? but yah, I also get excited every expansion, then I don't last a month. since you just get into this motion of grind and see, oh , its going to take me so many days to this. and just auto pilot grind through things. I wouldn't mind playing casually here and there.

But the sub fee has just been getting more expensive since the exchange has been getting worse, and I cant justify the price anymore.
