![The Story Of Warcraft Chronicles Volume 4 [Lore]](/img/1.gif)
Kids today will never know the excitement of buying the game in a store and staring at the box reading everything multiple times giving you a glimpse of what was to come as you sat in the car on the way home... Then as the game installed reading the little intro booklet over and over.....
fucking true. I could cry
and being startled by the loud as heck sound when you need to change CDs. Again.
🙂💚🎯
Back in the day I would force myself to read the entire manual before even starting the game. I no longer do that of course, you'd be lucky to even find a manual these days. The greatest manual ever might be the original Fallout.
that is so, SO true my friend...
"How did you get that arm?"
"I did one bicep curl...
...for every pvp game I played to get to rank 14."
"Holy shit."
hahah i used to work out while waiting in ques for pvp! i got pretty big. then ques disappeared and i was just fat
Hahhahhahahhhahha
I was the 421th like. So, naturally, I unliked this comment as fast as possible
Had a dude in my guild that worked out while waiting for queues during his r14 grind, was shredded af.
it was all that fist bumping
Plot twist: It's only the left arm that's ripped.
ruclips.net/video/515-EfhXne0/видео.html
it's the arm he used to spam targeting macros during scarab lord grind in silithus caverns
@Daniel M Why is there a hair on my screen
tf u doin here go back to stancing cars bro
double plot twist: he reaches to his right, with his left hand. illumunati confirmed.
Chadseason... 👀👀👀
Chadseason! Chadseason!
Dayumm Seel didn't knew u liked wow
Aye! I remember you Seel
"It's to my right." Proceeds to use left arm. Madseason is so much of a chad he doesn't even need to use the correct arm.
Who is this chad you speak of
@@professionalhater3929 chadseaon
Inverted from camera:p
No you're stupid! For the horde ! Lol
But he doesn't have that much muscle I don't exercise anymore yet I have more 😆
“I wish I could go into more, but if I did, it’d be a 4 hr video.”
And what’s the problem with that?!
wouldnt have enough time for his biceps then
💯🎯
“Take special note of the moments you have today and those you have around you, because fifteen years from now, you’ll be doing the same damn thing.” Amen brother.
I must admit I was one of the people who didn't know about dragging spells to your hotbar. I played a NE hunter until like lvl 7 with the spell book open and i constantly spammed the autoattack button, not knowing it was a toggle feature as such. I may look back and laugh at this, but ill never retrieve the sense wonder and feelings of an overwhelming expansive world that I had back then.
At least you have the balls to admit this. LOL.
I was too. I miss those days. My main was a nelf hunter. It took me months to realize I could use the boat outside of Dalaran, not to mention the flight paths.
I played a warrior in vanilla and I kept stacking agility for the crit chance instead of strength. I thought crit was the way to go so I was stacking agility gear. BAD idea.
Yes, that sense of ignorant exploration and naive wonder was a huge part of Vanilla WoW's magic. I did a *ton* of super noob stuff back then too.
For example, I absolutely hated to quest, and so I literally grinded mobs all the way up to 60. And that grind was made all the more torturous since 1) I was a warrior who played by myself; and 2) I didn't understand how the gearing system worked at all.
I would grind mobs for hours so that I could sell the drops for copper and silver and then buy new gray-tier gear from blacksmith NPCs. And since I was only upgrading my armor value and none of my other stats, not even stam, I had to farm mobs that were several levels below me or else I'd die.
And I did that for *months* all the way up until like level 38(!) when someone finally randomly came up to me in ararthi highlands where I was farming the same raptor spawns day after day and said something like "Um, why are you still wearing all gray gear and farming these same mobs all day?"
That guy was *super* nice. He basically held my hand and walked me through how to play the game properly. He even escorted me to the major Alliance faction cities like Iron Forge which blew my fucking mind since they were so freaking cool.
I don't remember that guy's screen name or even which class he played (all I remember is that his character was a dwarf male), but I still remember you dude 15 years later.
@@TaskForceSixTwoSix dwarfs are always so nice, lol. I have my own same stories with dwarfs helping me
Bought this a while ago, just got around to sharing it. Check out the scans in the description.
Idk whats going on but im sure ive seen this video before. Crazy dejavu or something.. You re-uploaded it right?
Edit: Some random ass case of dejavu
I love how you played SWG you should try SWGEMU and do a video about it. I'm curious about your SWG experience too maybe do a video on that. Love the content!
@@EredarLordJaraxxus if you watch platinum wow he had a somewhat similar video
Is... is... is that really your... arm...?

Holy crap. Madseason is buff AF!

I thought he was black. His WoW character is black
How could this be?! Rank 14 and this Buff? Teach us mad season
@@cavernus26 cherry mx blue switches
Smashing macro keys all day long pays off man.
Oh damn, didn't know Chadseason mained ARMS warrior....
Chadseason XD Im laughing so hard right now.
lmfao
1:16 Rank 14 arm from all that BG queueing
Madseason? more like Chadseasonshow 1:19. That's what a rank 14 looks like.
Yeah, idk, feel like we have to see both arms to confirm...
Me: "MadSeason is probably an average dude. Plays games, thin and short"
MadSeasons Arm: "Hi there"
He is short though. He has tiny little T-rex arms.
more like "hold my mouse"
That bit with the arm is the funniest gag I've ever seen
Spoiler alert: Whole video/article is just about a warrior using rend
I used it at the beginning when first leveling a warrior alt. I figured they wouldn't give you this ability if it wasn't useful. Turns out it wasn't that useful.
“Mez” actually came over from Everquest. Enchanters has a spell called “Mesmerize” which would basically put a group of mobs asleep for 24 seconds. Was very handy in dungeons where you could focus down a particular mob.
Yeah my guess was either EQ or daoc. Interesting to know!
Mez with charmed mobs were insanely OP
yea it is just called CC now from what I remember lol
@@madseasonshow It was in DnD long before EQ.
I always wondered why World of Warcraft didn't have a Sleep spell since it would have been easy to add. The closest we got was the Druid's Hibernate spell which only worked on dragons and beasts.
Everyone hoping for a face reveal
*Madseason does arm reveal*
Me: I'll take it!
Like the hole arm ? Deeeeeam
In a time when Blizzard were a Golden Egg in the gaming industry.
Looking at its rotten corpse now, worn by the very devil of the industry, is quite melancholic.
You could say it's just a shell of it former self.
It sold it's soul to the devil.
@@cattysplat it was sold from the day 1.
I still remember the announcement about Blizzard merging with Activision and how the community reacted. Believe it or not, but the people that were warning that this would be the end of Blizzard's reputation for quality were a pretty small minority in the community. They were laughed at, dismissed, and piled on by the vast majority of WoW's playerbase. But they were ultimately proven right.
@@TaskForceSixTwoSix I remember, I was among those, I later that year of WotLK, cancelled my WoW sub, and well D3 came few years later, the rest is just their continuous down spiral. Big Oof.
Dang I remember reading this issue until it literally fell apart
I had it as a youngin too! Couldn't play tho

I love your dry humor, Buffseason, please never change.
That ending was too true man. We tend to look back to the past when days were simpler and get sad, yet don't enjoy the present as we should. Certain things like games or music will take us back to the simpler times in our life but we need to enjoy the present and look forward in the future despite how hard it is.
dont worry, the present today would be the sweet past 10 years later from now and be sad again
aaah, that intro. It makes me want to sit inside a cozy cabin with a cup of hot cocoa. Bundling up in my chair and calling people gay in BG's
And wait another 2 years for the Chuck Norris jokes to start rolling in.
The fact that you scanned all those pages for people to read, shows how dope of a creator he is
he scanned a magazine!
it isnt fucking magic. kids are so easily impressed. go to school. learn to use a scanner/printer
@@lopiklop
What's impressive is the fact that he bothered to do so at all.
People have exceptionally low expectations from RUclipsrs.
really good message at end about appreciate those around you now
MadSeason... You always manage to highlight the exact same things that I think of and always hit me hard emotionally. Great content as always.
Young gamers these days don’t realise that magazines like this were often the only source of gaming information and walkthrough. Sure, we had IGN guides and such, but you had to go search them out and they weren’t always great quality. Gaming mags really were the RUclips guide of our day!
I was thinking of having a miniseries of the same style - still have loads of old Game Informer, GamePro, etc lying around somewhere...would be cool to cover the old greats like OoT, FFVII-IX etc
@@madseasonshow YES please do, take me back to the old magazine days
MadSeasonShow That would be an INCREDIBLE idea. They’re a perfect time capsule of gaming, they really are.
boomer energy is strong here
@@combeferret Weird question but did you play on Hellfire in a guild called Lions Rampant back in the day?
You know what... The more I think about it, the voice DOES match the bicep.
Your videos have the chillest vibes and they're insta-clicks for me whenever I see a new one. GG man.
Ahhh man that was amazing!!
So cool too see you here !
We need a Natty or Not video on Madseason. This man is jacked.
He's a pixel.

Man that was an amazing videos. I look forward to every video you release.
Bruh that was the best looking arm I have ever seen, need a tan though. Thanks for the new vid. madseason.
Rank 14 tan
@@madseasonshow Working out while waiting for BG
We don't have a strong enough sun to tan it.
After seeing that bicep blizz gave madseason the only rank 15 cause otherwise he would come beat them up
That ending was legend. Appreciate the time you have. A more valuable and timeless lesson does not exist.
A video of yours, just the typical chilling experience you provide me is unbereable, ty
The hand does not FIT the voice.
@SinisterMinister no, it doesn't, at all lol
You're god damn right.
@@jeanhamilton3296 I dont know what you're talking about, Ive always imagined he looked like that.
it fits more to the "Farewell for now mortals" guy than madseason ^^
I think the voice exactly /fit/s

One of the best creators out there. And also getting me teared up at the end. Great stuff Mad
Loved your GMA appearance. Keep up the great work :D
"It's gone , and so are the days of our lives" - man thats deep.
Madseason, please consider doing audiobooks. I would listen to them. You would be doing the world even more of a service. Your Carl Sagan 2.0 voice is epic.🎉
Lovely video again! Can listen to this for days!
woah... the outro really got me emotional this time.. great video thank you!
It sounds condescending and boomerish but I sincerely feel bad for people that will never know the hype that was early WoW. There's a triple A open world every other week these days, but Blizzard entering the MMO market when all we had were the EQ/AC/UO trifecta. Not knocking those games, but Blizzard was one of if not THE biggest PC developers at the time, and anticipating an MMO with that kind of pedigree and budget was just world changing at the time. And the question as to whether it lived up to the hype can be answered in the fact that we're still here watching videos about the damn game in 2020.
The game overdelivered. That is something that very rarely happens anymore
"It sounds condescending and boomerish"
Seriously, why do people apologize for trivial shit all the time?
WoW really had a huge impact when it came out. I got into it when Burning Crusade first came out, I was playing Guild Wars 1 a lot and some of my friends from the guild were talking about trying WoW along with it. Best times ever, haha.
@@sergiogonzales330 Because people tend to embellish the past through rose tinted glasses
@@sergiogonzales330 fear of angry ppl attacking. By apologizing ahead of time they're avoiding being attacked...
This guy has mad a life out of getting nostalgic on wow vanilla.
What a great video man. So well done. Definitely a little sad and missing those great old days. So many adventures with my online homies.
Hope you're doing good man. Thanks for all the great videos.
Man what a cool video. Can we get the 4 hour version of this? Cheers man, thanks for making this video. Truly highlighting the importance of social interaction, and community for what makes an MMO.
Something that remains true all these years later - up to Wrath, the game had great audio feedback. You could close your eyes, and know what kind of attacks and spells were going on, could probably guess at the environment, could even get a good idea of what classes were involved.
Sound design used to serve the gameplay more than it does now, in a lot of games.
Man this took me back. Great video!
Such nice words. Awesome video and one of the best advice to end the video with. Almost made me cry reminiscing of the good old days..
Madseason: "Man, I really want to make a video showing off my biceps, but people come to this channel for WoW content. What to do..."
Madseason is buff, that's probably because of a minute of workout for every pvp game in Classic and retail
You, sir, are a treasure. The only warcraft channel I watch regardless of whether I am playing the game or not. Thank you.
Beatiful video mate, hit me really emotionally.
I can't be the only one who did not expect him to be swole xD I always had imagined him to be a bit overweight etc . Glad to see he's puttin in the fuckin work! -- Great Vid as always--
...I went ahead and read all the comments. I'm surprised that so many people didn't know Mads is working out. He mentioned this like... a million times?!
Wtf when
@@r0e404 In his streams. I don't recall him mentioning it in his videos; but he surely did in his streams. Many times. Good times. 👍 🤣
What a trip. THe OCremix always gets me as well
I love your videos man! I used to only play retail but after binging yours and plat wows channel i got super interested in classic and so far im having a lot of fun! Big thanks to your profession guide, helped me out alot when i was getting started, keep up the awesome content ♡
Did anyone else Mez their pants when DaddySeason flexed his bicep??
God. I remember reading the little manual that came with the game, as I fantasized about storing up enough money to play.
How does one youtuber manage to make this much incredible content ?? Another banger again madseason !! *chef's kiss*
You keep leveling up your comedy skills, I've always enjoyed ur videos but u keep making me laugh more and more as I go through them! This was great :D
@1:18 hold on... 👀 oh okay
"It just feels good to hit stuff"
-GachiSeasonHYPER
That is absolutely awesome. Now i have old strategy guides coming in the mail. Thanks
Love these kinds of Classic WoW's videos
ignorance is bliss, i think a lot of us wish we could go back to a time when we just diddnt know. I diddnt know much about vanilla before classic but i had still played PS. If i could erase my memory of all MMO and go back to classic drop and do it again i would in a heart beat. knowledge isnt always a strength IMO
I get that with movies sometimes too - sometimes something is so good you wish you could have that first experience over and over. I'd say the same for bfa, but for different reasons :)
@@madseasonshow I have that thought with the original Matrix movie and Ultima Online.
@@madseasonshow My reaction to your biceps
Vanilla was known for its social dynamincs, everyone was clueless back in those days which made stuff more mystical in an sense when exploring stuff. Too bad for people who weren't there to remember those times because such experience will never be a thing anymore with all the tools we have today to min-max eveything and checking the meta instead of experiencing the journey.
Hey, Rend is the first ability you use after you charge at a mob during leveling! Before you have mortal strike or blood thirst, it has the highest damage and definitely better rage efficiency than mortal strike. And a warrior kills a mob so damn slow that sometimes it takes 2 full rend durations before the mob/ I died!
Even sunder armor is often more efficient than BT/MS due to the time the mobs take to die. I saw most success with charge->rend->sunders until half hp->pool rage and repeat. At 35 sweeping strikes+whirlwind+whirlwind axe made pulling more mobs and skipping sunders viable. Even then rend and sunder are good skills to use when killing 1 by 1.
heroic strike is higher dps? and used more than rend so spending 10-15g on leveling rend isnt that much helpful
@@blizzardaddict1383 that's not true. When most of my swings got parried dodge missed and I'm using a 2h to level, I have no rage to HS
@@blizzardaddict1383 Yes but you don't get any rage from next swing, which is something like 20-40 rage depending on gear and RNG of the swing. So you do like 60 damage or whatever heroic strike is for you at the time, for 35-55 rage. It's a very expensive burst of damage, and you can do way more damage spending the rage on rend and sunders.
Heroic strike is only really good for dual wield fury warriors in the end game, and even then mostly due to how it interacts with miss chance on the offhand, which is outside the scope of my comment.
Amazing video man, thank you for such great content!
Videos like these are by far my favorite videos. Rose tinted goggles absolutely glowing
I want to believe that Bajheera is grabbing the magazine and displaying it for you.

Should do the German ones as well, there were and still are so many German game magazines and WoW was the GOAT, we even had our own TV show about WoW.

Wait, MadSeason isn't a sweaty overweight NEET nerd like us but a ripped Chad? I've been fooled all these years. Unsubbed, Unfollowed.
It's obviously just someone he hired for the video
@@AboveEmAllProduction yes, he is in fact self-employed, thank you for the reminder 😘
Like you could walk away from those guns.
Not everybody who plays WoW is a sweaty incel with an anime girl avatar
As stereotypes goes he`s a pumped-up midget maybe with long hair ;)
wow those biceps on national coming out day??
In Poland we had our CD-ACTION magazine (in fact it's still around even today!) and I remember their WoW review. I was just a little kid so I couldn't afford it by my own, and my parents were too poor to buy my one. So I had to play bugged private servers (honestly nothing was working back there), but after years of waiting, finally I found a job and my first thing I bought with my first payment was World of Warcraft up to WoTLK (because it was around that time).
And then I remember playing in warm summer days with my window opened up, a little breeze was just calmly going in to my room, everybody were sleeping and I was questing. I was in almost trans-like state. I didn't wanted to eat, pee, drink. I was so immersed that I was able to sit even 28 hours non-stop.
Good times, good memories.
Thanks for that video man, as always great job. I like nostalgic things, because I am nostalgic person. This soothes me.
Take care and stay safe :)
YOUR VOICE IS THE MOST CONFORTABLE THING I HAVE EVER SEEEEEN
I can't even focus on the rest of the video because I'm still laughing at the buff ass arm 😂
Wait, did Bajheera's bicep do a cameo?
I was thinking the same thing. Almost all of mad season's toons are black lol
Thanks for your amazing content my dude
beautiful vid man... loved that outro
Is it possible to have a crush on a man you've never seen?
Now that I see that arm and whisp of pit hair, I'd say yes.
