      yes, basicaly what you see in any company , where certain people would do anything, backstab anyone just to get what they want, thats asmongold. its fun to watch him, he can tell the story wel, without shame, but if you think about it, he is not someone you wanna be friends with honestly, he is a very low lifer without any principals

There were like 200 nerds in line and we were given pizza slices for free while we waited. There were even news reporters and I was featured on video. My friends and I were out by like 3am and went for burgers before returning home to play for a week straight. Man, what an experience.. good times.

      Yeah BC and WotLK were peak WoW. I played Classic too but not that seriously. Only started getting really into it when BC came out and somehow got into the best PvP guild on the server that was for 18+ when I was 14 lol. Ended up playing a lot of Arena and open world PvP. I made pretty close friends in that game while I was bullied in school but online people looked up to me because I had 2200 ratings. We had a lot of fun and all loved the PvP videos people like Neilyo and Reckful released and it kinda pioneered what we all know today on RUclips and Twitch. It was a amazing time in my life despite my struggles. I played both expansions excessively start to finish but I felt like the game was slowly losing something and Cataclysm somehow disappointed me that I quit it 2-3 times until I finally did for good.

    It reminds of the good ol days in OG WoW/Wrath when my brother and I would play for hours on end on our dinky little E Machines Computer from Walmart with the graphics all the way down and still lag and get d/c'd.
    My brother passed away last December (2021) from a Drug Overdose and it just makes me remember the times when everything was so innocent and pure.
    How things change, how life changes...

Gotta be honest here bro, some of this got me teary-eyed and slammed with the feels, and many good laughs as well! Maybe in 5 years you can do a new "IRL Rehash" that involves a new MMO or something of note. As always, keep it real, keep doin' what you do cause' it's the good stuff! 😉👍

Except most uf us had jobs, families, bank loans etc. He chooses to be 120 % dedicated to pixels and dodge real life. Thus he become millionare by doing so while the rest of us become dad's or mom's having regular job's to keep the family up. Who won? None. Or all of us. We all done what we felt is need to be done.

      Fellow severe anxiety/panic attack/ptsd sufferer and I know the pain and suffering you deal with. I’ve been dealing with it for over 7 years. It’s so miserable, asmon with a few other streamers I watch daily to help with mine. Keep pushing, I take meds but they don’t help much. It can be so hard somedays. -stranger who actually cares and feels your pain.

    Can totally relate with the happiness he feels just with a different game. Every game has that period where it is PERFECT. Make private servers of that stage and invite friends. It´s possible and feels like a time machine.

    Pretty crazy how WoTLK was such a huge part of people's lives. One of my best friends got me into WoW during that expac and so much of our time revolved around WoW, its a massive nostalgia hit to hear Asmon talk about these times. I see many parallels to my life back in the good ol' days as well.

    The fondest memory of wotlk was the release of Ulduar. I remember having a crazy dream about it and the next day woke up early and had to wait until it was released. I had a level 80 death knight and rogue and went into Ulduar like right when it came out. One of the best times of my life.
