They’ve successfully recreated the classic experience by having 10 hour queues. That’s hardcore blizzard.
I just wonder how long the feeling will stick around for though. Probably a year? Maybe less?
The same when Legion and BFA was out.
haha classic wow the game where you plan your day with the queue timer in the equation , start it up before work be ready to game after work.
@@howardhavardramberg333 At least we might get TBC
Enchantress nah in Classic there was 10-15 times the amount of bla and legion
Now I want to start my own guild for the alliance side called "the graverobbers" to rival nixxiom.
Golag Is watching you my guild will be called “shadow grave robbers of shadow darkness shadow dusk in the woods at shadowy darkness night”
You have my sword.
Hell yeah baby im totally down with you!!
Bitch ass alliance
You have my sword
An hour long queue,
Finally got in game and with so many people lag like hell
Heard the old gun sounds again
Killed some troggs
Looted a chest
Shot some ice troll children
Got disconnected and sent back to the queue
Amazing
10/10 going back tomorrow
haha best comment
Wouldnt trade it for anything else
I did not experience much lag.
Back in vanilla i had a son of arugal chase me all the way to the undercity elevator. Good times
I used to love pulling world bosses and stupid hard mobs to cities and just watch the mayhem. Kinda glad we can't do that now tbh lol.
@@zhain0 It would be cool if we could still
I helped a guy and he enchanted all my gear and made me 2 bags for free! XD
Mexi?
@@rinwolfcren8583 No on the german server.
Lucifron? xD
@@wenermeyer689 ja xD
Same exact feelings brother, glad to see you having such a good time.
I got my friend to start playing WoW the other day (he's never played before) and we first started playing modern WoW. He made a worgen rogue and I made a hunter, we grouped together and just speed quested without any difficulty (We probably only died 2 or 3 times). Within about 4 hours we reached level 20 and by this point we had collected some pretty decent gear (lot of blues and greens with the odd epic upgrade), had earnt about 2-3 gold, and we also bought some ground mounts.
It was at this point I suggested we try out classic WoW so he could compare the two and see which one he preferred more. He made a troll warrior and i made a shaman, and after about 4 hours of game played we are level 8, have no green items, have about 8 silver each and he had already died a bunch of times trying to solo the zalazane quest on echo isles. When we logged off I asked him which one he preferred and he hands down said classic. It was more challenging, rewarding and doesn't feel like your having your hand held the entire time. He also thought that you had to save your money so you could buy new skills was cool and the fact you actually had to READ quests so you knew where to go made it more immersive.
I am a vanilla player but I couldn't agree more with what he's saying, modern WoW is far too easy until you reach max level (then it gets harder) but there's no real challenge leveling from 1-120 and it gets boring very quickly even if your spamming dungeons. You can solo quest all the way through until 120 and probably dont need any help killing the harder mobs so asking people for help is not necessary because your character is already very strong and your constantly getting better gear. Because of this the social aspect of the game dies in this area and the leveling experience can feel very lonely and tedious.
All in all both versions are enjoyable in different ways, but if you want the true WoW experience then classic is deffs the way to go
Love the story really, played both vanilla and the modern version but damn man 4 hour till lvl 20 in the modern version come on man that took you waaaaay tooo long
"felt like i played a mmorpg" thats it bro
Finally got to try classic out, and it's been a long time sense I've said "Oh crap I'm out of mana!" How I've missed saying something simple as that.
It`s always on low level, not only in classic.
@@enchantress7928 Nah, in BFA as low level you dont run out of mana really.
@@nicolek5461 Then you don`t play it. :)
I died because of two mobs attacking me, I loved it.
You dont do many raids,do you
When I started there was a level 3 Tauren druid sitting in the Deathknell crypt who would Mark of the Wild everyone that started moving, would give them a personal "Welcome home, " and then dance with you. This was honestly one of the most wholesome moments I have ever had playing WoW.
I looove the excitement in you nixxiom haha, you deserve this
I have heard a lot about wow classic, even my dad played back then and everybody was like ”I can’t wait bla bla bla” and I thought that it sounded stupid but let me tell you about my experience! I created a female, human, rogue. I couldn’t kill mobs! There wad players everywhere so I was like ok this is stupid but then I got a mace that didn’t fit my class and I traded it to a paladin and he actually responded with a ”thx” - I have never felt so good in my life! There was this one guy u had to kill for a quest and everybody wanted to kill him so we made a line so that everyone would be able to kill him! In my 2 hours of classic wow I have never been so social, I love it!
Had an epic RP/gameplay moment in Bloodsail Buccaneers server. I am a Human but I like to level in Teldrassil. I also took up herbalism and so I was after herbs. I snagged one from this Night Elf Druid called Moonglie. I got 2 peaceblooms. I promptly apologised and gave her one of the peaceblooms. She then proceeded to lecture my Human, telling me how the forests are not mine... I was taken aback! And she huffed off.
Eventually we ended up meeting again an hour later in the nearby town, she recognised me and apologised. I explained to her how Teldrassil is my home to me, and the significance of Kaldorei culture is to which she was taken aback. We parted again on good terms and ended up running into each other another hour later. She gave me a potion which would later be responsible for saving my life when I was fighting level 7 furbolgs, I gave her something in return, forgot what it was... But the experience was amazing! I like to think that we will meet again throughout our travels and that we will continue helping one another in a small way!
Anyway, that was my Classic starting experience!
ShadowPicturesJay i finished a corona watching your comments
For reasons I'm not able to get hands on WoW Classics, not yet, and the way Nixxiom talks about it just made me cry ...
same
“Unwatchable” okkkk buuudy
@Fx Flexible As someonE who's literally just stopped playing for the day, he isn't overreacting, this is a genuine reaction.
@Ezra Bro, all the power to you
dadash nagoo b khatere aval mehre :D
The smartest thing Blizz could do with classic is expanding it without raising the level cap
Plz make a machinima with noob and lvl 58 dk experiencing classic wow! I know you already did one but this time its legit!
he doesn't do machinima anymore, even new fans think that it is cringe today
Dk wasn’t in classic anyways
Clipz Gaming You must be new here.
Greenchili Studioz stfu
@@greenchilistudioz4537 he literally made one 1 week ago
Loved seeing the passion and joy in your voice @Nixxiom :) An now I hope classic stays amazing, as honestly I now want a BC only server in a year or three... :). Other then your poor taste of being a horde this was an amazing fun watch for the wife and I. Have an amazing week and continue to update us every so often on your new stories of adventure, community, friendship and crazy :).
Man this makes me so happy to hear you say you’re happy to be home cuz that’s exactly how I feel.
I hope you have fun guys, this is awesome
Exactly the same happened to me,, played for 12 hours slept for like 4 and went back on playing, what is this sorcery ?!?
Favorite part of the community so far is just chilling out with everyone on the server in gen chat. I never participated in gen chat on the retail servers (because 80% of it was ALWAYS either gold sellers or guild ads) and it's just a small thing but it's nice to see gen chat full of nice conversation, groups for dungeons/quests/the occasional item sell advert. It feels like you don't really need to be in a group because we're all just taking part of this massive event together and it's a lot easier and more fun to engage with the whole server than I thought it would be (and that's with my expectations being pretty high already)
Classic is my first time actually playing WoW and i love it i am not far but it's just soo fun thinking bout playing a druid
Go for it!
I hope you stick with it. It is very rewarding to play druid.
Druid was quite lackluster in classic,but became already borderline OP in tbc
Claudio zappulla yeah thank goodness they used to 1.12 talents
Druids are great, once they're level 10 their true OPness starts kickin in lmao
Tool comes out with a new album and classic wow launches i feel like a kid all over again.
I would like to say, that for me? It has been amazing. I love this game, always did. And it always did hurt me to see what happened over the years. I still look back to my fondest memories back in Vanillia, BC, and Wrath of the lich king. And I am so glad, that this was finally released. Classic, that is. I never wanted to play on a private server. I wanted to support blizzard. A company which I still care for. I just hope, that they will manage to find their way back now. To focus on what it is that matters.
Dumbing down WoW for casuals was their mistake, i liked hardcore playing. Tried BFA for free...was bored, too easy and brainless unless you do a lot of endgame. I didnt give 2 shits about endgame i want the leveling process and growing.
@@icemanabz So true. Thats the problem. It became "Rush to max level" and you never really did enjoy the questing experience quite as much as before.
@@tyrantos1265 classic is up and i am having a blast, haven't had this much gaming since mhw released. Wow.classic.will hold me till iceborne is up
@@icemanabz Don't really know what Iceborn is, but I am having a blast too at classic. Playing on Gehennas. Have to get up super early to avoid the queus atm though.
I'm playing over on Bloodsail. Honestly this experience has been so great. Clearing Deadmines with the guildies was great, half my gear broke after our second wipe so I just tossed on some grey gear and kept tanking. The community and memories are undeniably amazing.
I never said it was "just nostalgia", but I did say nostalgia played a big factor in it being as popular as it is.
That said, I've a level 16 Dwarf Rogue on the US RP server and I will admit Classic's a lot more fun than I expected it to be. Then again, I had expectations as low as the Titanic's current depth, so I was very pleasantly surprised.
There's plenty of stories like yours. Good to see you're coming around.
One thing I keep wondering about, is that Classic is meant to stay as it is right now, isn't it? Only vanilla, lv cap 60 etc.
So I wonder, what will happen in say, 5 years, and all players have lv capped and been playing the same content for so long? Will it still be as fun then, or does it get old and people drop out?
I'm curious to see what will happen.
@@EmeraldVideosNL Have i ever told you the definition of insanity?
It’s amazing how at lvl 12 I feel like I am still productive by placing things in AH, completing my quests, making sure to change my hearthstone strategically as lvl & grinding like those around me.
As someone who started in BC I had no idea how spoiled I was compared to classic lol.
the difference is not that big compared with later xpacs, BC still has Vanilla flavour
@@brimstonevalar6053 true, but BC definitely cleaned a lot of stuff up
@@Lunethzero ye some stuff for the better some for the worst depends
@@brimstonevalar6053 the map in classic is almost worthless, nothing is even on it, barely the cities are on it.
@@golagiswatchingyou2966 nah, it gives the sensation of a big open world like in real life
I've been super excited for this and i havn't slept much since launch but nixxiom somehow makes me more excited. The moments he experiences are the same reactions, glad to see nixxiom having a good experience like everyone i know. I love your happyness and enthusiasm nixxiom.
I am not excusing people that use the "just nostalgia" argument, but wasn't it obvious that on the first days Classic would have this boom? Since Classic was announced streamers and players have hyped up Classic to the max, but besides that. Every game in history has its peak of logged in players in its first months/year and then the population drops until it stabilizes. Classic being Classic and being WoW it's obvious that it would have such a boom compared to any game.
I am not someone who is anti-Classic, not even close, I just don't care about it. I want Classic to succeed, so don't interpret what I say wrong, but everyone who tries to use Classic's initial boom as an argument are kind of deluded. Every new MMORPG gets its most players at launch, at some point the population drops and stabilizes into its real population. Classic won't be an exception and the population it has these first days won't be the same next year.
Yeah, I feel like when this massive hype settles down, vast majority of the people will remember how incredibly time consuming vanilla wow is and most of them will drop it. Because, let's be real, classic wow won't be getting any new/younger players that never played WoW before, this is mostly the same playerbase that wanted vanilla to return and I doubt those people have as much free time as they had 14-15 years ago.
@@exeterra4825 Honestly, I won't try to make any predictions on how things will go. Biased against or in favor of Classic, no one can predict how many players Classic will ultimately have. People Will end up leaving and joining the game for many number of reasons. People acting like this boom of players at realease means anything and already throwing shade against the other side of the argument is idiotic.
Tbh, I became fed up with the Classic vs Retail argument. It's like arguing about food tastes. Makes no sense to me.
exeterra I actually have to say you’re wrong - I know a lot of young players who already prefer Classic over Retail because they are not as confused on what to do ironically, even though retail has been made to make it more simpler, instead they’ve just overconfused it - and even if the online players does drop down, most likely, more people will play classic until the next expansion comes out - and even then from the great reactIon Classic got, Blizzard will most likely make changes or add more legacy servers - I guess you prefer BFA and how boring it is, but each to his own.
@@supersuit5790 Not at all, I haven't played WoW since the launch of WoD, and I never mentioned in my comment that I prefer retail over classic. I actually want classic to be a success and it would be amazing if classic gets brand new players, but I just feel like people are looking at this through nostalgia glasses while remembering how magical this game was 14 years ago when we all started playing for the first time, and that that feeling is going to slowly fade away. Hopefully I'll be proven wrong, only time will tell
Super Suit “And how boring it is.” Boring to you, maybe, but everyone has their own cup of tea and they shouldn’t be judged. I’ve been playing the game since 2005 and I still mainly log on for roleplay.
Im so happy to be part of this. Im playing priest and ive seen many players in trouble, went to them and saved them with heals or ressed them. Ppl actually thank you and it feels good on both sides.
"It isn't just nostalgia because there is a lot of people."
It's just the first day. Chill. Most expansions are like that on launch day.
I've seen something like this in MoP, when everyone went pandaren at the start, but this time it's like 8 times as many people! There won't be as many people staying, yeah, but I do believe there WILL be quite more than bfa. In fact, it would be quite funny if blizzard realeased a new xpac for wow, just for the players to play for like 2 days and then going back to Classic lol.
Considering the speed at which new servers are being made to house people. Yeah something tells me it iwll be diferent
Besides, for casuals, there months of gameplay just to get to lvl 60, with people experiencing the world before Cata, so sad I can't join.
@@vorvanjguy3470 Omg, don`t be a toxic fanboy!
That’s not true for me. I’m enjoying Classic more than I did at BFA launch. The game design makes you play in two totally separate ways. I much prefer classic.
BFA felt more like a pointless grind with gutted professions. Once you got through the story there wasn’t much left except for raids and mythic plus dungeons. You didn’t have to worry about helping or offending anybody because who cares you’re never going to see them again unless they’re in your guild. Oh and that gear that you just got you don’t care about it and if you do care it’ll be short-lived because catch-up mechanics will make it irrelevant.
For some people none of this matters but for other people it’s the whole point of playing in the first place.
I was feeling a bit frustrated with having to run everywhere and the amount of times I'd died, and no quest tracking.... And then I hit level 10 after 4 and a half hours and actually cheered out loud, and the feeling of satisfaction made me realise why I love this game
ah good old 1000h server queue blizzard really knows how to bring that nostalgia back
I couldn't be on the launch day, but when I logged on next day it was wonderful. Seeing so many players and grouping up getting first green. Was amazing
6:26 How to make a healthstone irl.
Im so glad Classic-enthusiasts like yourself get to experience this ^_^ i dont play it myself but I always watch the stream. You guys have so much fun :)
I was there, what a wild ride. Gravediggers for life.
First day on Pagle was great. Northshire Abbey was swamped with people, but basically no lag at all, barring a slight delay when looting. A line formed to kill Garrick, and for the most part, people were honoring the spirit of the queue. A few people were even acting as organizers, calling up the next group to get kill credit and so forth.
Had pretty bad luck in terms of good loot drops, but did find 2 bags and a friendly tailor made me another one since I had the linen for it, so didn't have to cut into my savings to pay for bags. Leaving for Westfall now at Lvl 13 with a shiny new Copper Battle Axe I just made for myself, feeling pretty good. Someone in general chat just reminded us all to drink water and stay hydrated. This is the spirit of vanilla that all the nay-sayers insisted wouldn't be, and yet it's here. Love it!
Wait wait wait wait, you saying we are supposed to interact with people in an mmo?
I do that in retail and classic, so weied that people don't do that in Retail.
I know right!?!?
It's my first time playing WoW Classic and I'm having a lot of fun, people helping each other, talking just about how hard it is to kill murlocs when they just group and you have to run for your life!! It's awesome, a friend gave me my first green, also a linen robe and I gave him some healing potions. I must say I died a lot of times but it was fun.
I look forward to getting back into Classic. Sadly I barely get 30-40 minutes a night at the PC latey. Soon though!
Feel ya bro
Ain't life shit or what? At least we got classic.
My most memorable experience so far was helping a mage in the starter area. Later I was in the barrens getting my butt kicked by zebras on my poor warrior. Guess who showed up out of the blue!? The mage and he helped me farm like a 100 zebras for those damn hooves when he didn’t need to! What a champ!
First day of classic wow I rolled a dwarf hunter.
I got jump scared by icebeard (the elite windago)
Good times
I was waiting until he leaves the damn cave, but he wasnt feeling like it. Then I remembered that I can learn poly, so I ran to kharanos, learned the spell, sheeped the bastard and stole the meat :P
My mother played WoW back in the day, she was very hardcore into it and I always just sat there watching her play it. I can’t wait to experience what she experienced
I wish my experience with Classic had been this good. Mostly trying to tag mobs (and failing) and people declining my group invites. :/ Glad your experience was great though Nix!
Don't give up!
@As a ____ My Comment Means More maybe its just you.... I havnt had Any of those problems and I'm not a stream or content creator. And I have yet to have to drink/eat during a fight. And I take on 2-3 mobs at a time. Maybe you should try getting good or just go back to retail.
@As a ____ My Comment Means More never said I haven't experienced any of those things that but in the two days 4 hours and 53 minutes of playtime I have it's pretty uncommon the longest queue I've had to sit in was 3 hours but that's also doesn't seem very common again if you're having so much down time that's on you get good
I was too little to play vanilla wow when it first came out, so I'm super excited to be able to play it now! From my first experiences, it's been really nice to feel excited about gaining one level or getting a piece of green gear with +1 Intellect. I've also enjoyed the group aspect of it, there was one time where someone else was in the same room as me killing kobolds and asked me if I wanted to group up right after! It was great.
On my realm I was "The-guy-who-got-four-bags-in-the-first-playtime-hour". Felt good. Nice title.
Played a Tauren and got the fourth while killing boars dudes in the south east. :D
@Gilgamesh891 Nope.
Gilgamesh891 I’m on Incendius
I was making a voicemessage to a friend after sitting in que for 300 minutes. As soon as I logged into my undead char for the first time and saw like 200 people already in the intro video my voice cracked from joy. I don’t know about you guys but I enjoy it so much
Also, you're on my server. Not really interested in a guild, but certainly reason enough to sub to your channel! Apparently Mulgore was the least congested place. I started in Durotar, and oh my God the zerg was obscene there!
I didn't log in until about 2-3 hours after release, and all I saw were cows as far as the eye could see. And I have been having so much fun playing my Tauren Druid. I love that everything feels like an accomplishment again, and that even a gray item can be an amazing upgrade. It would be great to play with Nixxiom, but I am not the greatest PvP player, so I guess I will just enjoy the videos. :)
So are you going to return to do Machinima videos anytime soon? If not, will you stream WoW classic?
elFacho Im not sure but I think he said he won’t do wow machinima anymore:(
WeirdWeeb that’s disappointing.
That was the whole reason at least half of his subscribers came here.
I stay because sometimes Nixxiom makes interesting content every now and then, but Machinimas were pretty much what made me stay.
@@FabschOblivion669 Nixxiom changed his style completely, but his content is still great. Captain Grim made very good machinimas recently. I recommend him.
M4dVice his machinimas was the best. also why i followed him.
Yeah, same, I loved the machinimas, I don't care for classic...
I was someone who started in Legion and ever since i heard of the old class quest i've been wanting to play classic and i wasn't disappointed at all i love how i have to earn my warlock pets. One of my best experiences so far was just heading in to the Barrens and asking a Tauren for directions to Thunder Bluff to get staff training.
I logged on to my server about 45 minutes before lunch and there was a very tiny Q. Which my guildmates that I promptly informed found out got longer every minute. Next day I tell my girlfriend to log me in. She gets home about two hours before I do. So she does it about 3 to 3:30 my time calls me and says that there's a queue I say yeah I figured and just make sure to spend my character or something when it goes in I get home around 5 5:30 ish 16000 Q. 10:30 at night dip in the hundreds. Have to go to sleep because I wake up at 5:30. It's rough mate
This is the WoW that made us all fall in love with the game, and it has been missed.
Like this to show appreciation for Tatters tailoring!
Today I realised that ... I felt like it was survival out here in the leveling world. I had to plan my potions empty my bags to make sure I can bring back the most, I had to make sure I had all the quests needed and Im not forgeting anything. Conjured food , an extra crafted bag or some potions make a big difference. When I see someone having hard time with a mob or trying to run away from one Im helping him out because I know its a pain to walk back to your corpse. In a way the game feels like it is a survival MMO.
You should've included footage of that Westfall siege where us Alliance bois brought the pain
Got to level 18 after 2 nights. I know the feeling you talk about. This night i made 26 linen bags and got my tailer to 75 thanks to some dude who needed it. Been playing with alot of people having a blast and managed to die a few times. Good times
10 hour que yesterday. Tried joining bthe guild but apparently you're full lol
I’ve been leveling my Troll Mage and anytime I pass people I give them a stack of 10 or 20 conjured water and buff em with Arcane Intellect. I can’t remember his name but there was an Orc Warrior I passed back on the stress test who gave me a green robe after a gave him a green sword. Shout outs to that awesome Orc. I’m so hyped to keep leveling and passing out my food and water in the future.
Keep having fun and stay safe adventurers!!!!! For the Horde!!
BFA is just simply not an MMORPG and classic exemplifies that. BFA is an action game with multiplayer instance lobbies and RPG elements.
maximthefox well that’s a bit of a understatement
I've never got into wow but man it's so damn cool to see servers so populated ! I really do hope the population stays high and people continue having a ton of fun with classic
I just spent 1 hour giving out bags in Brill... Lost all my 20 silvers in the process... XD
No regrets :)
I found out how many new priests are struggling and not aware how wand is crucial to them , i bought 5 wands, and once i saw priest without it. I gave them wand and explaned how easy it can be for them to level. Was to get messages later howni changes their gameplay
I'm having fun on my troll mage despite the queues. I'm already working on becoming the guild alchemist and learning how to survive with a very small mana pool when armor actually matters. I hit level 8 tonight and enjoy grouping up with people I meet along the way for harder quests like Zalazane.
My Experience:
5 hours in queue...
Same here
Go to a medium pop server then, i was gonna go to whitemanr but fuck that
Nicely said, i loved and was hyped for Classic got my old buddies that played with me up till Cata then we quit. We played for 10 hours straight, laughed hard and loved the world. Sadly none of us went tailor, but we found a cool ass mage that traded mats for bags. I healed bunch of ppl about to die to full hp and people were truly gratefull. thanks to.Blizzard for bringing back the joy of WoW to us.
Your hair looks good.
Teaming up for a quest with the same guy you saved from one too many wolfs 2 levels ago, and you both recognize each other? Feels so damn good man!
"Tatters gave me a brown linen robe with +1 intellect! How the hell do you remember that? Because im part of a community man, and i remember the people i play with" and you also recorded gameplay so uhm, that might've helped with the memory aswell. :D
Damn, Nixxiom, your enthusiasm almost makes me want to get back into vanilla WoW.
Man, now I gotta try classic. I only joined late Lich King but I think I might enjoy classic. I’m horde on the current expansion so I think I’ll try alliance in classic to see what their zones are like.
I'm horde on retail too, and the horde zones and quests are completely different in classic. I highly recommend giving both a try. :)
This ecstatic ramble is basically what all of us have felt i think. Ahaha damn queues
I put my character on zandalari tribe. 227 minute log on time. I loved the few hours I played but if I can't log on then I am sad.
Saw a random corps in the middle of barrens, ressed him he gave me 2 silver and an emchant. Later we randomly ended up in the same WC dung and had a blast so nice to see namses you remember
I still haven’t slept lol
So some of my guildies and I did our first attempt at at RFC. I tamed The Rake on my Hunter and everything went smoothly. We got up to a point where we dropped off a ledge. Everyone was waiting for me to drop down and before anyone could say anything. I hot keyed dismiss pet and dropped down. We had a good ass laugh about being a huntard. It was such a fun run because we had so many close calls but we all worked together and made it through. This is the kind of fun and excitement I have been missing for so long. Its glad to be back in classic wow.
Could you spare an alliance guild called lost in time we are not looking for a fight but we will sure as hell defend ourself
Were you logged on today. If so you hear about westfall?
I can feel this sentiment. Grouped up with some people on the initial quest chain (Durotar) for Sark. About 2 hours later, ran into and grouped up again, then 3 hours later they formed a guild. Just people that grouped up, now a guild. And random people trading stuff to you in the world because they don't need it and they know you do. Druids, Priests, and Mages just buffing people they come across in the wild. People trading cloth, not in a group, and trading goods back (gear, bags, etc...). Overnight the elitist, every day d-bag, people kind of dried up. Hopefully, they stay back in their cave, but yes, people just helping people in the world just because. Oh, that mage pulled two, *charge* and kill the other one. You wave, they wave, and off you go to only see each other in a new zone later.
Yes this very much. I started playing WoW end of TBC. And what i have experienced in my 4 hours classic was fckin insane.
Sadly i think the sheer flooding of the classic servers show how hungry players are for good content. For a game that REALLY feels like an mmorpg and for everything they can't seem to get in beta for azeroth. I hope Bliztard learns something for the following expansions
Doddlen Doddel that argument isn’t valid yet. People are playing because they want to try it out, not because they enjoy it. Give it a month and if there are still mass amounts of people playing, then that argument is valid.
@@KC-py5vq Yeah, i'll give you that. That's true. But still, if you compare that "social" part of classic to retail wow, it is just ridiculous. Like for example one of the very few social contacts (if u wanna call it so) in retail wow is, when you join a group to kill a worldboss, don't say anything and just leave the group once you're done.
Hope that makes any sense, english isn't my main language tho.
Greetings from germany btw
Doddlen Doddel I agree, maybe some of classic will rub off onto retail. Have the best of both worlds.
My 10 year old is LOVING classic and the challenge that it is. He has played the newer stuff since he was 6 1/2 and this is a whole new game to him. He has heard his dad and I talk about classic and bc since we met in a guild but has only ever seen videos and pics of it before now.
i added 6 ppl to my friends list.
This is unheard of in 2019
Awesome bro, great you're having so much fun. I'm also having a blast.
Love you Lord of the Gravediggers, Master of naked nightelf women ;)
seems hes now into blood elf naked females since hes playing hords xd
@@lalbiakhlua59 classic has no belfs
@@FrosenHell lol than undead female than xd
Oh man this really hits the ezperience on the head. I started playing early on too and decided to stick it out in that cursed trisfall glades area. And you could just feel the community immediately. Its been sooooo enjoyable so far.
Leveling up with other people?!?! But that's impossible!
Cheers for the shout out my dude.

Machinima please
I'm just glad I can play the version of the game that I've heard soo much about, and it seems amazing. Takes me back to the good ol' mmo days (haven't played classic back in the day, but other mmos that had a rather similar feel)
My experience was full of meme trolls. Alliance experience was pretty boring and people treating the game like a competition despite it being a PvE server.
Best time was making the Wetlands run again, passing people and us buffing each other.
But I have yet to experience anything I’d call a community yet. Ironically there’re too many people. Nobody stands out so yet no connections are being made yet.
I have a break in service from work in a couple weeks so I’ll commit more to the game then.
pve servers are full of npc players. So boring. Try pvp servers mate
@@thessop9439 yeah today i played my first 4 hours of classic on a pvp server. And had alot of fun with my gnome warlock. Lots of people talking in general. Buffing you up and inviting to do quests.
I did the same thing Nixxiom...i was sitting there on the character screen for hours to just log in...and when i finally...could log in...on my Tauren Shaman
It was glorious...there were so MANY Tauren players! Literally everything in the starting area was being slaughtered...it was just corpses everywhere. Immediately got invited so we could rush the quests. Luckily the mobs were respawning very vast. Everyone was mooing in Gen chat and we managed to at least get to level 3 until the server crashed XD
On the next day...i logged in...and there were so many players still...it made me so happy to see so many people on...to see the gen chat be so lively.
Everyone helping each other constantly! I was in 5 groups in the span of an hour and a half goin questing around killing a buncha mobs, exchanged some loot etc. and we all just added each other...and ran into each other later on.
Banter was great, we even saw new players that haven't played old WoW in the gen chat and we helped them out.
One of the guys...didnt know where to get totems from lmao. Poor man
Honestly...classic is everything that i expected...and more...i LOVE IT...it has been so fun
We're home Nixxiom...we're home...
Thanks to all those classic wow hype vids i now hate this game, thanks youtube
After watching the vid i take it back, glad you're having fun
I am loving the dive back into classic wow. The nostalgia for me, the community, people helping one another, it's epic!
Hey Nixxiom, shoutout to yesterday's epic battle. That's why I joined an RPPVP server. Have Fun and watch your back, the Alliance is ever vigilant 😉
It feels good to see you so motivated in one of your vids Nixxiom, I'll be sure to hop over to Zandalar Tribe so I can help provide pots and heal.
You put all the right words on all the things, both good and bad, that was so magical with Classic wow. Thank you Mr Beard
I’m just now catching up with some of nixxioms videos, I remember the first day of launch for me. I rolled a dwarf hunter, and I got him to about level 5 in that starting zone when like 30 night elves rolled in to do dun morogh quests. It was great
It was amazing Nixxiom, i was like I'll only play for an hour then me and this random druid named Hippie partied up to clear mobs for only one quest. Then We exchanged items we made in our professions that would help each other. So We made ended up questing together for 4 hours with jokes and close calls, nearly getting mauled by 2 footed walking bears. This random druid named Hippie is now on my real id list. My goodness 4 hours in and i've already made a friend.
Classic has me hooked and it makes me so much better seeing retail WoW with hardly anyone on. Maybe devs will finally listen to us
I managed to play for 30 minutes and do one quest at launch. Couldn't even hit a mob or do anything due to the lag. After that I couldn't get back on the server and play anymore until yesterday. Had a blast during a couple of hours until it was time to go to bed. I kind of envy those who have the time off and can play at this wonderful time.
I never played vanilla, and I'm loving classic. It's hard yes, but there's so much to do, and professions are awesome in regards to leveling :)
