Even my wife is into it now. She's raiding Heroic 25man lol.
Yeah the undead starting zone holds the most nostalgia for me too. [Reply]

Ah good ole days. I remember when I first started playing, I was a Human Mage and it was my first MMO. Westfall seemed too high level for me after I completed Elwynn Forest and my friend said why don't you go to Ironforge. To which I responded "...Ironforge?" He took me to the tram, I hopped on, went to IF and I was blown away by how cool the zone looked. I started raiding in Vanilla, with Molten Core being my first raid, hearing about Ragnaros and Onyxia being tougher than hell and then having BWL and Vaelastrasz on top of that. Such good memories of 40 man raiding, having to get Fire Resistance gear and pots for Vael, having to get Nature Resist Huhuran. Finally beating Cthun after just weeks of wiping to him over and over again was the sweetest victory. Kelthuzad was a great kill too, but Cthun was the hardest imo out of the Vanilla stuff. Ah... memories. [Reply]

Bro, I remember discovering the first FP in Westfall and just thinking "WTF! This can't be real. Am I actually going to fly on this thing at some point?"
It was my first MMO as well, and I had never even imagined something like WoW could exist. I'd heard about EverQuest at that point, but that's not how I envisioned those games to be. The depth and the immersion just blew my damn mind. I remember walking into Stormwind for the first time and just about shitting my pants from the scale of everything.
You mean there's goddamn trains in this game too? :-) [Reply]

Ironforge is my favorite Ally capital but the Undercity is where it's at. [Reply]

In my opinion Blizzard is personae non gratis
I came back for Legion after uninstalling 1 week into Cataclysm. I thought Legion was amazing between the artifact progression, dynamic zone levels so you could switch up the leveling experience, and most importantly to me was the introduction of mythic+. Mythic+ really kicked up the replayability for me.
BFA really ****ed up the loot progression with the Azerite system. You get the item you need and unlock the traits then another raid tier comes out and you upgrade that item with the same thing just 15 ilvls higher but it was a downgrade because now you didn't have enough Azerite level to unlock the same traits. That was the most retarded loot system they could have thought of to replace the Artifacts. Also I really really hate the Titanforge system. Think it would be much better to cap it at 10 levels but have those 10 levels behind a loot grind power upgrade path at 5 ilvl intervals that gives you an item to use on an armor piece/weapon. That way it's not completely random bullshit that could drop an item that's so high ilvl it's there til the very end of the expansion. But I read they are getting rid of titanforging for the future so that's a plus. [Reply]
Dragon Flight dropping today. I took the last year+ off of WoW, but my wife has the itch and wants to play. She's super excited, i'm trying to get excited.
Anyone else planning on picking up the new xpac? [Reply]

Some friends dragged me back into WotLK Classic. I popped onto my retail account and had no idea what I was even looking at. Eleven years was too long of a break I guess. [Reply]
