UPDATE! :
Hey, I'm Adruit-Grobbulus (formerly Justdruit-ArcaniteReaper), the player being interviewed in this video. Here's what's happened with Arcanite Reaper and in last 16 months.
After the interview went live, we saw a huge influx of new players to Arcanite Reaper. Sadly, they didn't have much staying power. By the launch of phase two in September, was the only Alliance raiding guild on the server. 99% of the rerollers and 90% of the post-interview crowd had stopped playing. transferred off and promptly disbanded in August.
We struggled to make progress in SSC, often raiding with only 22 or 23 players -- the only Alliance raiders on the entire server. Achieving Revered with four factions to complete the heroics required for the TK attunement was simply not possible without a population to run dungeons with, so we were unable to even start The Eye.
At the end of November, Blizzard introduced their free realm transfer program. We had been holding out for an official Blizzard solution to our population problem because most of us were philosophically opposed to paving Blizzard extra money to solve a problem that Blizzard created in the first place. Once that happened, we promptly transferred to Grobbulus (for free) as a 3/10 guild with about 20 active raiders.
Since then, the guild has thrived. We recruited aggressively, finished phase two as a 10/10 guild, and started phase three on more or less equal footing with the rest of community. We achieved our first Illidan kill on 3/14, and cleared SWP through pre-nerf M'uru, before losing to the summer vacation rarespawn until the prepatch for WotLKC. In Wrath, we're 17/17 (+3), building a second raid team, and looking forward to Ulduar.
Blizzard deactivated Arcanite Reaper in August of 2022.
is basically now a healthy guild on a healthy server who sometimes tells stories about the bad old days on Arcanite Reaper. We're like a neglected child who you check in on 15 years later to find out they graduated with an accounting degree and are now a perfectly normal, unremarkable, well-adjusted adult.
I personally would be happy to talk to Asmongold again if he wants to do a follow-up. I guess my TBC experience was unique in some respects, but we're no longer struggling on a dead server, so I'm not sure what we'd talk about. Maybe that's his problem to solve as the interviewer ;)

How you ended up on that server in the first place?

This dude got randomly picked for an off the cuff, streamed interview and knocked it out of the park. It almost doesn't seem real, he had legit responses and feedback and could hold his own when questioned.
Yeah, he clearly knows his server inside out
I am sure this was not the first time he was asked all those questions. Everyone hearing about the server would ask why hw did not leave allready 😅
It’s almost like he was speaking his truth :P
when you play on a dead server, you think about these things, so when someone asks you can answer them almost immediately...sometimes you say these things when nobody even asks.

Yeah there are still fully functioning non-narcissistic people floating around out there online, not everyone is on Twitter lmao
Hey, a smidge of good news. Asmo's stream added like 40 people to the server. Not exactly ground breaking, but it's awesome that there's more people
Yeah, I moved to the server and playing on Horde. Its pretty chill. The community is super supportive.
That's still sad...
Would have expected more tbh, but nice that they got some at least
if he actually liked his server being dead then why would he want people to transfer there. the cope is real
It's not sad at all. Its different and unique experience where every Player matters
This right here, this dude being interviewed, is what *WOW* is all about.
Sadly, that has been lost and long forgotten by Blizzard.
Bro this is actually amazing! Those few 70’s are basically the main characters/heroes on the realm. Its beautiful.

@Destination Unknown i think you missed it. That lack of people creates a tighter community because you need each other. Your probably play more to each others schedules so you can actually quest. Sounds slightly appealing. I just won't roll alliance.

I'm not even a wow player but it seems hella badass that all of you are rocking with such a small team. Keep up the good work soldiers
Genuine question: why do you guys stay in that server? Do you enjoy the low pop?
If you ever want to try a new game, I highly recommend Elder Scrolls Online. If not, I wish the best to you & your homies. I hope the server gets better
Rock n roll
Would you be willing to do a follow up interview with this guy further down the line? I'm now invested in this guy and the server lol. Would quite like to see how they progress and how the server is managing.
I second that
I fourth that
I fifth that.
I sixth that
I seventh that
This is the kind of content I love tbh. Really interesting use of Asmon's place in the community to elevate a voice that would have never been heard.
As I said before, this is true investigative journalism at it's finest. If a multi-million dollar corporation can't do this, what ARE they actually doing? They could be doing this sort of research into their own game.. but here we have to rely on streamers to do it, because the corporations interests are focused elsewhere.
I couldn't stop laughing at the subsistence economy bit.
Why is that funny?
Made me want to roll on that server tbh, Snake eater made me crave that gameplay loop
what does that mean?
@@Pookie2112 that their means of trading is not done with gold. They've reached a point where having gold does nothing for you, so it's essentially worthless. They trade items directly for other items
I'm about to roll on that server and stand around in cities selling consumables
I just legitimately became so upset listening to this outstanding, respectful fan of Wow.
Only because I know deep down Blizzard most likely won't do anything for this server.
"I wasn't aware that the Auction House Runs at all frankly."
I couldn't help but die laughing after I heard that.
Honestly, a low pop server is closer to what Azeroth should look like. Heroes should never outnumber npcs.
@@albertgeorgy6827 dude having thousands of people doesn't add anything gameplay wise, all it does - for gameplay itself, is turn fights into AOE fests. The sole benefit that population provides is a healthy economy.

I think they feel special and it is good as a feeling while playing
Well they're recruiting tanks
You think you want to but you dont
It's like moving from the big city to a rural town where everyone knows everyone. It's not sad, it's a sense of community where everyone contributes no matter how big or small.
I think what's sad is just how lonely and abandoned the world would feel, how empty the chat would be. It would feel barren and depressing and not lively.
@@megapet777 The world in rural areas doesn't feel lonely and abandoned, though, because it's not a game and nature is very alive without humans. I guess you haven't lived there yourself yet. WoW doesn't have that at all and solely depends on population to make the world work. Your analogy therefore doesn't work.

The thing is that the server is primarily active during the evening. By no means am I gonna bs and claim our server is healthy, but the interview was done around noon on a Thursday, so it didn't do AR any favors. My guild's been here since the original re-roll project and we're just trying to enjoy the community aspect and making the most of it, kinda playing on hard mode.
Side note: More than just 9 people raided kara that week. Archon has two kara teams and our our lazy ass raidleads didnt log. lol
Tbh, the Hardmode aspect of it seems very enticing as a roguelike player.

Server: Nearly Dead.
This dude: "Well for me personally, I'm **having a blast.**" xD What a cool guy
The person you interviewed is really articulate and provided some solid insight into classic for his particular server and guild. Rare breed.
That is how a lot of people that played WOW used to talk when it first came out.
All I heard this entire interview was "come be a tank here and we'll treat you like a king"....anyone else?
How can a server called Arcanite Reaper be dead? That's just... blasphemy.
Arcanite Reaper, oh...
ARCANITE REAPER HOOOOOO. Yea, I can't believe such a classic and iconic name for a server is dead :\
Well there is probably a similiar amount of people playing on the server to the amount that crafted it in Classic. Waste of 1-2k gold.
@@Zhohan- Yeah, no shit.
@@pRaX85815 shut up dork
the guy getting interviewed sounds immune to toxicity
@twizzm that's one option
This man is playing the purest form of wow
Yup. The form of wow we fell in love with to begin with.
@@amberleaf42069 From what I gathered the inefficiencies and the difficulties of getting people together to progress collectively has been a universal reason of what sucked so many people into MMOs to begin with.
But those inefficiencies aren't immediately gratifying and worse are seen as an active waste of time compared to min maxing a group of people rapidly through modern tools.
So the modern system is devoid of friendship, comradery, community, and struggles. But allows for drop in drop out play maximizing efficiency.
Basically trading the human element away in order to more efficiently use your time.
Worst of all is that these traits of using time wisely is so powerful for the overwhelming majority of people that lacking it just causes players to go to another game where they feel they could gain those aspects. Propelling the MMO industry in a direction that lacks those strong bonds that built up the original MMOs.
However it still exists as seen here. You just have to join low population shard guilds and you too can become a part of that struggle to maintain enough connections to get you through the content.
I used to heal TBC Heroics at like 15 when it was current content, and I have been telling people for years how hard trash in places like Underbog would hit how it would two shot your tanks, and everyone just looks at me like a old fuck, it's nice to see people playing through it now
Citadel on heroic was just amazing!!! The Blender!! Played since 2007 myself, haven't played last two expansions. TBC and WOTLK were just great times
This server sounds unironically based... like a group of tourists got abandoned and forgotten about and just kinda figured out how to make it work.
Props to your interviewee. He seemed like a nice dude.
"You know what this reminds me of? This is like whenever people discover like a lost tribe that hasn't discovered electricity" I fucking love you man.
Thanks man, Love u
This is the closest thing to time walking in real life we will ever get.
@derp derpin oh ty master derp. For explaining why my random thought during an asmongold video was factually incorrect. Btw i know the game was popular back then. My thought was how people actually depend on each other and have server loyalty. But ok andy.
@@garlicjrmade6409 don’t mind him, he speaks before thinking and probably prefers smooth peanut butter over crunchy, I agree with you, when it comes to raiding and stuff being genuinely “hard” for people, the community aspect of the game, this is definitely timewalking
@@Numbuu smooth > crunchy

What a professional interview from both of them. Surprised me for sure.
YEARS ago, I was on a server with one person that Auction Housed gems. At -60% loss every 2 days, the guy was broke 24/7. No one ever bought anything, ever.
Bruh
Bro at that point you just sell at the vendor cause at least they’ll always buy
@@DelRae that's not about the money, it's about the message
I really liked your interview, you would make a good opinionated reporter Asmond, I think that fella you were speaking to is intelligent too
Asmond
We have enough opinionated reporters. We could use a few objective ones if anything.
This isn’t an MMO server- it’s a single player RPG server
I don't think so. They have a far more intimate community on that server and knows each other, even down to the guilds, pretty well. I would say their server is more MMO than any other.
Everything is automated so we don't have to socialize
This guy speaks really well. And Asmon is a very good interviewer. Hope this server got some activity and momentum going from the stream.
Just his Heroic dungeon and raid experience makes me reminisce about the good old days. It was really fucking hard to just clear them with blue gear and building it up - piece by piece, under you finally had enough gear to start Karazhan.
I'd take this any day over a crowded server.
I remember back when they merged "Black dragonflight server" with "Skullcrusher" .... Skullcrusher peeps hated it!! Now, Black dragonflight people are Skullcrushers brothers in arms!!

I rerolled on AR in March as well as a way to experience the Alliance side of things, ended up joining Archon its been a much better experience in a lot of ways. Finding groups is much harder but it means the people who stayed are generally more patient and less about being spergy meta slaves. I'm glad I rerolled.
At 11:00 he said “looking for group it’s like barrens chat,” not “it’s like parents chat.”
The Northern Barrens on Kalimdor is notorious for having a weird and often volatile community, memes, and chat experience for both Alliance and Horde players
I played only few months of WoW but I still remember the Barrens chat. Chat was lit with ppl asking for help to clear that dungeon, weird stuff, dumb arguments trolls, great banter, that chat unvirgins your eyes. Ahh that chat was legendary
Still trying to find mankriks wife
I haven’t watched WoW content since I quit last august but this interview was good and hits a nostalgic spot.
WoW classic will always be the best game I’ll ever play
11:00 "It's like parents chat" he said it's like BARRENS chat lol
I think after this video the server is going to get more popular
Lol no. He had a toon here because he's done videos on this server being dead back in naxx. He does not remember. Also so did every RUclipsr. It been famous for being a dead server since bwl
Why change a good thing?
@@rocketdogticker The server didn't actually fall until the gates of AQ though. Where's this coming from?
@@VklNero I had max toons there and ya it was dead since bwl. I'm speaking on horde side tho. Only 2 terrible guilds remained after knocked Loose left the server
@@VklNero and alliance died after madeinbrazil's guild left(much later). I think I did not pay attention to alliance side.
It's really nice to play on low pop servers, yes maybe getting a group might be a bit more challenging sometimes but playing with the same players all the time, getting a tight guild who become your best online friend, no loot drama and no " i didn't get my piece of gear, i'll go next door ! ". People help each other so they can survive in the world, it's not all about gold. etc
Man, after not playing WoW for 15 years this makes me want to play on this server and play a tank like I did in tbc back in the day
Youll regret it after 5 mins
Since this video was posted (1 month), Arcanite Reaper is a little bigger now with 27 Alliance members and 37 Horde members.
Whoa! ty for that info :D Was looking for updates to this, I was hoping that people splashed that server
Is this AR EU or NA?
Great respect for these people. Sounds like they play the game with a feeling I lost many years ago. I hope Blizzard is seeing this and is giving them some extra friends to play with! :)
Blizzard giving players what they want? That's a wild fantasy these days.
I love how he interviews random people. Definitely a unique content. Very interesting take from a person who's playing on dead server.
Been Playing on AR for a bit now. We transferred to AR after playing on two larger servers (during the first reroll) because we got tired of the bigger servers and wanted to see how it was over on AR. Me and my friends (Mainly Vokul from another comment) formed the guild Archon on the server because we were tired of guild hopping and getting shafted by other guilds constantly. Also some of the weird roleplay on benediction lmao. It's been fun honestly. It does give more of an old school experience compared to the servers that have shit on farm all week every week and thousands of resources always on the auction house. It sucks to have to farm shit yourself and have to wait on groups but it also kinda promotes more of a community through the server almost like a small town or something lmao. The server is lower pop most people are active at night and that is when the server has it's most activity so there are more people on it it just wasnt shown here. 11 am on a weekday didnt really do us any favors lol. We are still low pop and fucked beyond all hell but we are still here ;) Sorry for the rambling.. I do hope that blizzard does merge us with another server or two just to make the community we have on AR a bit bigger because having more people to do content especially at varying times of the day would be pretty nice. (Also more primal transmutes :) )
If someone were to play on your server, what classes or professions do you desperately need?
I'm.. tempted to come in as a prot pally
Ignore him. He transferred off.
@@windu8131 Hey, got more update on this server? Everyone in the comments was enthusiastic about this server, or rather, the guy interviewed. I kinda was looking for a follow-up to all the new people that Asmon brought.
@@endowing We had have people trickle in ever since the video. Mostly just to ask in LFG “is this server dead?” And then log out haha. Still low pop but we still kickin.
Do you still need a tank?
I feel like the basic mmorpg quests actually make way more sense lore-wise with so little people around
quests like "go there and kill 10 boars" only get completed at most a 100 times and even then it's with a lot of time in between each completion of those quests, so lore-wise the boars could have repopulated and need another culling
compared to a full server where there are tens of people commiting a mass genocide on every boar in that quest every few minutes
or even the bosses like kazzak who actually feel like a looming threat just standing there ... alive
on full servers the boss spawns and there's actually hundreds of people flying around him like mosquitos, fighting among themselves just to get the kill on him
so basically lore-wise it works, but gameplay-wise it doesn't, maybe if the server was just a little bigger (at least 40 max level players who play frequently) then it could work in both ways

I really like this. Maybe a series where you find players who are doing interesting things and just chat with them would be cool.
The social part this guy has been doing totally reminds me of Vanilla, since that was the norm back then, but it seems the current WoW generation is not used at all to waiting and networking needed to get a group or raid going with just that, with the exeption of this guy and his friends on this server.
It actually makes me more positive about WoW then i have been in a long time, seeing this sense of community in classic.
I thought the same. Funny creative thought comes to my mind, what if blizz made purposely small servers for live ? We would be forced to make communities and have this home feeling again. It could be optional for those who want to play this variant of the game. It doesnt hurt Blizz to let us have the variant that we had. Man it hurts to think about it. I miss the people I used to know over a decade…
Exactly 100% reminded me of Vanilla WoW that social aspect was what made WoW so outstanding in the beginning pre Burning Crusade..that was what WoW looked like (Not a dead server.. I played on Azshara, first WorldWide AhnQuiraji opening)
I found my server. Jos the tank can finally make a return.
You will be popular
Geez, I felt like I was watching a documentary.
Really sad finding these forgotten people that blizzard shits on in the dark.
What makes you think blizzard waits until night to shit on them? They do it day or night.
man, just a couple bois with a wow server to themselves. heckin good time
I believe Asmongold transfering to this server with a full guild would make the best classic content
It would kinda ruin their server for what the guy likes it for.
hahaha....no
@@glatzigoblin i trully belive it wouldn't.
The amount of people that would transfer with asmongold wouldn't be enough to change the dynamic and they will give this server more life.
Asmon guild can make a rule to don't carry over any gold so they farm and interact with the native people.
Think about it. Plus current content for Asmon in classic is Lag xd, really. Lag is not good content
That guy must been having a blast, the true classic experience
I played on the server until naxx dropped when I quit, it sounds fun but so much of the content was just locked off because there was never enough people to do it. It was fun to progress though
"Massively" multiplayer online role-playing game. But yes the true classic experience of singleplayer wow
@@demetus4046 I understand the lack of raids but for somebody who just loves doing the leveling up experience and to enjoy looking around the world it would be perfect. Nobody would steal your kills and you can farm anywhere you want.

No

11:00 when he says give a guy a camera and mic and he becomes a jackass and everyone in chat saying "you" like they got him when that was literally the point asmon was making, amazing community of kids

Thank you for the subtitles, editor.
Started with a laugh, ended with me crying
Dude….I wanna go to this server cause of the peace
Kara was the best and most nostalgic raid Blizzard ever released, Netherspite broke my brain as a 15 year old, but despite that it was the coolest thing. You're raiding a tower that holds the twisted magics of the fallen guardian of tirisfal and for somebody who was raised on Warcraft that was so phenomenal to experience. It's 15 years later and that would be the only pull to go back and experience that again but it's too much investment and then the payoff would end up like this guy's experience. Also it's never going to be like you remember.
17:40 he said ALIVE and KICKING not where am i been kicking.
man his dedication to his the server and guilds i respect you brother.
How is this acceptable?
Why doesn't Blizzard merge servers?
bobby wants to buy transfer
Because get yer nostalgia and get out don't let the door hit you on the way out
Because dead servers are POG and comfy AF
People complain and don't want merges, it's weird
Basically, they don’t wanna have a server filled with a bunch of jerks. I would much rather play on this server than Tichondrius.
I wish there were more players like the man he interviewed. He sounds like a decent guildmate.
That guy showed a tiny piece of a fucking awesome experience in WoW that Asmongold will never know how it feels.
Im so surprised the guy did not transfer or give up on the server and actually still hopeful that blizzard will merge his server.
Damn that guy is strong willed !
blizz should combine the servers with low pop that are same type and region
We're good.
Nah
Pretty sure the guy said, " Our MT *overslept* " @ 6:20
Nice catch
Yeah the subtitles are way off in many places, e.a. "right for the picking" instead of "ripe for the picking", but in your case it actually makes a big difference in implication.
Player being interviewed: "I mean, we're alive and kicking"
Annotations on screen: "I mean, where am I been kicking?"
I remember this feeling. I've been on Sunstrider EU since vanilla. The day they opened up server migration Sunstrider literally died overnight. It went from being the most popular EU server, and was the first server in the world to have a dedicated community forum before blizz opened up official ones, to a completely dead server which never really picked up until wotlk.
I love this dude, all games need more people like him
8:18 .. "not that challenging" .. also wiped for 6 hours straight.
It's challenging for people who dont have gear. Its a DPS race and thats why he wiped for 6 hours. It was like week 2 of the expansion.
Mythic live wipes can take weeks
@@pineapples7449 mythic live is also a lot more difficult and fresh content..
@@Ayayron_e3 yep.
lol damn I started on this server. I was with and we left during the AQ phase. Big sad
Edit: As far as people transferring resources, multiple people have alts on this server at max level. So they farm on those alts. Level a level 10 toon, load up that level 10 with resources - and transfer that lvl 10 to their main server.
This dude talks with his eyebrows more than anyone i've ever seen lol
I've played in low populations servers back when I was playing in private servers. You essentially get to know everyone on the server including the alliance side. It's a really cool experience. Everyone knows each other and the server has its own lore with the people there.
That was a great interview, the dude was very chill and informative. 👏
Definitely the boosting either in game or with money leaving players not caring about their progression. Congrats
*guy smoking a joint*
AsmongoldTV: He's on some substances, this server is lost.
The guy getting interviewed was my main paladin tank during wrath. Super chill dude. Great player
"Ripe for the picking", and so many other things I could point out. Love the videos but I feel the captions weren't fully necessary for this one, at this quality. Ok just one more, 17:42 "I MEAN, WHERE AM I BEEN KICKING" should most assuredly have been "I mean, we're alive and kicking" instead.
Parents chat instead of Barrens chat too.
Incredible interview. I’m surprised that this was done on-the-fly.
I laughed when the picture of vaulty came up when he said I was going to the auction house.
Dudes eyebrows have a mind of their own.
ive played small private servers on runescape the really classic version, but even they had like 80-100 people in to get sorta economy going and more than 1 group. hard to imagine just 9.
Really nice interview, I hope Rock Bottom gets a lot of new recruits now
