Well, that is the problem, my friend. None of us will never be noobs again. I remember my first character, a dwarf hunter, running around Dun Morogh thinking it was the entire world, then marvelling at the passes leading into Loch Modan. That is, I believe, part of the nostalgia. No matter how good the game is - and I do find MoP very nice - that noob feeling is gone, through no fault of the developers. Remember the joys of days past, but also find joy in the present.
I can't believe it was so long ago. Nine years. Feels like yesterday, when I think about it. The nostalgia is so thick, I could cut it with Corruption.(I was one of the only people I knew to make one of these, was actually good for a warrior. Got a lot of compliments lol).
I remember playing as a priest, and the warrior told me to get the mobs off of him so he could use his bow. Something like "I can't shoot my bow when they're close. You have a shield".
Sakeroz That is the one place where Mists of Pandaria and Cataclysm have faltered, but the developers have recognized the problem and intend to amend that in Warlords of Draenor. But aside from that, I think the game has improved immensely since vanilla. Talent systems that are simpler but also have a more noticeable impact on the gameplay, passives for each specialization so that every class specialization feels completely different, improved graphics and beautiful (Though underappreciated) music... Vanilla had a completely different atmosphere, but that had a lot to do with the people in it and the connections people made with one another through guild activities. The core gameplay itself feels a lot better now than it did before. And since it has become a growing concern, Blizzard is working to improve the things that have been sort of lost since vanilla. Stay optimistic for Warlords of Draenor. :)
I wasn't around for Vanilla or Burning Crusade, but I will say that the raids and dungeons in Wrath and Cataclysm were fun (in groups that had half a brain stem). I also found that things like the Dungeon Finder and the Quest Tracker on the map were definite improvements.
I can hardly relate to this nostalgic-wise since I started in tBC. My father started playing when the game released and this is what I'd hear when he got home from work at night. Wish I could see WoW in its full glory. :c
I miss when I still didn't know the map and I was like "HOW BIG IS THIS WORLD?!" as alliance, then I just got on a boat for booty bay and got on another boat to the desert on the other continent and I was like "THERE'S ANOTHER CONTINENT?! I THOUGHT THAT WAS IT!"
Omg nostalgie j'avais 5ans a l'époque et j y jouais déjà que des souvenir de malade sa me fais trop bizarre la nostalgie quand je pense que maintenant on en est à warlord ou dreanor
Alex Pino It's the default screen. In all the betas, it's the default vanilla log-in screen because there wasn't a log-in screen available at the time. Just like how it always shows the default dwarf riding on the gryphon on the loading screens in all the betas when you load an area or dungeon.
Alex Pino To be fair, there's a possibility it might return. Many players loved the Vanilla log-in screen, myself included. Personally I like the BC log-in screen, but I will give it to the vanilla version for being mysterious, and inviting. BC one was somewhat intimidating.
This Loging screen, and the music gets me upset, because of on how much i loved this game, it is just a game, but its just strange how some things get to you, even a GAME that you've been playing for over 5 years....Blizzard....really good
age 11, brothers come home with this new game, they let me create a character, paladin human, server Warsong, logging in for the first time to a whole new world, getting used to Pc controls for the first time. wandering Ewelyn forest or however the fuck you spell it, Levling to 36 and quitting for 2 years, come back, burning crusade, remake paladin, level to 70, first time karazhan, stop for another while, age 16, Night elf warrior, first on alliance to get shadowmourne. age 19, Wow is dead. RIP
hmm the nostaligia feels good and brings me back...but damn WoW sucked back then compared to what it is now... i mean come on, transmog,lvl 100,talents,toy box,mount journal, you name it we got it now... but the only thing i miss was the teamplay while doing an instance,its just not the same anymore but yeah whatever
I personally believe WoW started to die when they began the Dungeon ques and BoA, i only think this because there was less interaction with people over the game considering you are in a dungeon group for about 10min or so after that you never hardly see that person again. I think creating those groups and raids and so on created friends and good times that all of us old players remember. But thats just my 2 cents..
You also kind of needed people to level with to do majority of the quests being rather difficult, now the quests are so easy you dont need anyone else which also created less interaction with all of us. When WoW was harder i think it was for the better honestly.
Noobysauce 110% agree. The game was like a RPG tuned on Hard, which had an online mode. Vanilla wow was the best experience I ever had with a multiplayer videogame - the world was imensly large, you could die almost everywhere during XP, there was no easy way out and the players that actually managed to reach level 60 knew how to play their damn class. Little to no addons, people with sets were recognizable and actually looked upon as skilled players. No free gear, no excuses.
I believe this too, not to mention flying mounts. and ground mounts. Earlier you had to actully WORK for things like that. Now it feels really standard and not at all like something special. You level too fast anyway so you'll use your ground mount very little and then you're 60+ and can fly instead. It really sucks :/ The greatest nostalgia for me is the fact that you had to work for things, and actully put effort into getting dungeon groups together. Especially at early levels, including as a horde player setting together en expedition to get into Deadmines...
@@wraithess The reality is, that you are controlling a character "just as yourself" through their own life, as if you were them. Making them more powerful, more aware, more intelligent, more self evident of their destiny. The fact that you logged in to that specific character's life gave them purpose, which in return gives YOU purpose: "To progress in life as this character as you see fit your own destiny in life".
+Lizzardtong Music really picks up at that part. Gives you that feeling of challenge and danger, and determinations and stuff like that. I dunno, but I feel that way everytime it plays.
Soon. Soon we will be able to traverse the land of Azeroth the way it was intended once again. Before the dark times... Before Cata. Before Activision.
I invested so much time and effort into Vanilla WoW. Every minute spent was completely worth it. So many good memories. - Horde had shamans and Alliance had paladins. - Redridge Mountains lockpick farming (opening lockboxes on the bridge, tips appreciated!) - Endless corpse-running at Menethil Harbor. - Having to travel on foot until level 40 to get a mount. - Traveling across continents to reach certain instances. - Emeriss, Ysondre, Lethon, and Taerar. - When Naxxramas used to be in the Eastern Plaguelands. - 51 point talent tree. - Fighting to maintain the Grand Marshal/High Warlord PvP rank every week. - Pre-made BG's with team members decked out in T1/T2 and absolutely dominating. - Disconnecting mid-raid and panicking not knowing whether or not your raid is still alive or dead by the time you log back on. - When contested areas were actually contested and world PvP was actually a thing. - AQ gate opening. - MC/BWL attunements. - Times where players were respected and the community was thriving. People would go out of their ways to help you. Made many friends during this time. - Most importantly, you had to work your ass off for anything you wanted. I guess the overall challenge and first-time experience of this game made it so enjoyable. Funny how a mere 1 second could bring back a huge wave of nostalgia. So glad I got to experience this.

***** Thing is, I'm one of those roleplaying geeks, one of the reasons I'm still subscribed to current WoW. No RP servers are a huge turn-off for me. I'm considering it, though. How stable does Nostalrius run? And are all the quests there? Because I played on Emerald Dream for a time, and roughly 30% were missing.
***** I don't think so, the RP audience is small enough as it is, even in "real" WoW. Anyways, I might actually take a look at Nostalrius. Thanks for the info.
Legit makes me cry...Especially 1:57. God, I remember I played a dwarf and my first time going into an inn I saw the rested marks on my character "Zzz" I legit thought my character was sleepy... So I went downstairs typed all type of shit to have my dwarf "sleep" there and logged off, and when I was leveling a tauren I met a guy in the starter area and he took me to a ravine or something filled with Quilboars I think, and I spent about an hour or so killing them with him... Those moments are one of the best moments I ever had in Wow... That and killing HC KJ (stopped cuz of Uni while my guild went on to Mythic...).
This feeling will never return, because it wasn't something that can be re-experienced. It was a passage of time that can only be looked back on and missed. edit 1/28/2016: Nostalrius has both a pvp and pve vanilla server. Hell yeah. edit 4/6/2016: And Nostalrius is getting shutdown. Goddammit.
For those who want to relive the real vanilla experience, there is a private server launching with good working mechanics and scripts!! For more info visit kronos-wow.com
Both are well polished projects, but as far as I know, both are pvp servers, when there's already plenty of high-quality, well-scripted pvp private servers in excess. I'd rather look for a pve one for a brief, leisurely paced nostalgia.
Jon Doe Such a thing will never be made. Every server out there is PvP due to the broad appeal. I'm not joking or trying to be mean, I've literally never seen a PvE-only private server in my life.
TheOzumat And I don't deny the fact that pvp servers are generally more appealing, either. The only pve server I've ever seen is "Ascension" which isn't wholly polished and neither has an outstandingly large community.
For many people this is nostalgia for over a decade ago, for original vanilla, yet for me who never played it, this is already nostalgic from the launch of classic, with the constant disconnects and that time waiting with the message: "Position in queue: 35000, Estimated time: 8 hours" in the middle of the screen while listening to this. It was a good time.
People can throw in the old call of duties or plug in your xbox 360 to relive the game. you can never go back in time and relieve World of Warcraft when it was first released. So glad I was apart of it
+Will Clements You actually can sort of go play on nostalrius its a Vanilla World of warcraft server everything is just how it was back in the day and tons of people play there ive put in like 40 day + /played time and im not bored yet so fun and addicting
“Someone once said you can't go home again, but they lacked vision. And a temporal discombombulator” -Chromie of the Bronze Dragonflight ruclips.net/video/TcZyiYOzsSw/видео.html :)
22 years old now, I remember hearing this when I was 11 back in 5th grade. My god... time flies. The first moments in WoW and being overwhelmed with everything around me. Long live those memories
Im 30 and i first heard this 16 years ago, havent been playing since Pandaria came out right after WoTLK, about 10 years ago, but i still dream im grinding from time to time.
ninjabunny For me it's literally impossible to re-experience, I grew up as a gamer with it. When I started WoW, I played for fun, and over the course of the next 8 years turned into a powergamer. It was a much slower transformation than most go through, but it's not repeatable, even if you have the exact same game you started with, and I spent enough time at the intermediate stages to realise that.
I stayed till the end. Marvel conditioning lol I was expecting a teaser for the next one. Alas no. :( The warcraft movie gave me such goosebump throughout. Hope Sylvanas and Jaina in the next one.
This music will forever have a very special place in my heart. At least for me, it never gets old or dull or repetetive or boring. It is a perfect piece of atmospheric background. None of the latter login screens came even close.
For some reson this song hits home, but i didnt even play back then. It has an old mmo rpg feel that i can recognize... its like fake nostalgia of some sort? Has anyone else felt this??
So many memories... so much felt listening to this and remembering. Such a experience beyond all others at the time. When WoW was released everything changed. I think of those days and smile but nothing lasts forever.
If only we can play them again...I mean legit and not the private servers. I played Vanilla, BC, Cata and MoP. Hated the fact I couldn't play Wotlk (due to no money at the time)
Man, you really did miss out on so much, you have no idea. TBC and WotLK was the most memorable experience of my childhood/teenhood. I'll never forget those nights of roleplaying and raiding!
Zeveren I've played Vanilla, TBC, Wotlk Eng-games. TBC was the best by far. After that it was only gear that mattered, no skills at all. Catacylsm and MoP killed the game.
you wouldn't have liked them at all anyways, it was kind of like a "you had to be there" thing. really, i think MoP is one of my favorite expacs so far along with wotlk, i liked TBC Alot but really not ever getting to fight pass the first boss in sunwell made me so fucking pissed, that expac was way to hard, and the raiders we're even more gruesome. Vanilla WoW was kind of just who ever grinded the most and had the least social life succeeded the best, tbc was more about how good your guild was and it was REALLY hard on new players, wotlk was just amazing lore and raid wise, best expac hands down. cata is a fucking disgrace, and mop is pretty fun for how it went, i absolutely LOVE THE MONK CLASS, it really added alot of flavor into pvp.
I remember making my first character in Teldrassil and losing my fucking mind over the forest and the sheer size of everything. Oh innocence where did you go
"Disconnected from server"
XD every time it happens I hear the "DUN DUN DUNNNN"
Goddamnit now i'm getting all the shitty internet PTSD.
And now it's the shitty legion version
i laughed way too hard at this
oh god... thats what i tried to forget for years, now you reminded me.... :D
I started in BfA and get nostalgia from this.

I remember my first character, a dwarf hunter, running around Dun Morogh thinking it was the entire world, then marvelling at the passes leading into Loch Modan.

Blizzard should put this back to the next expansion or have it as an option to change the BGM at the login page.

I can hardly relate to this nostalgic-wise since I started in tBC. My father started playing when the game released and this is what I'd hear when he got home from work at night. Wish I could see WoW in its full glory. :c
Side-note, the track is so much better than the new shit. The ending actually had me wanting to go on a brutally-fashioned PvP killing spree.
Players will never forget the moment they make their lvl 1 human and entered Goldshire.
So glad they're bringing back Vanilla! The Glory Days Shall Return!
I miss when I still didn't know the map and I was like "HOW BIG IS THIS WORLD?!" as alliance, then I just got on a boat for booty bay and got on another boat to the desert on the other continent and I was like "THERE'S ANOTHER CONTINENT?! I THOUGHT THAT WAS IT!"

Nostalgia
This feeling will never return, because it wasn't something that can be re-experienced. It was a passage of time that can only be looked back on and missed.
edit 1/28/2016: Nostalrius has both a pvp and pve vanilla server. Hell yeah.
edit 4/6/2016: And Nostalrius is getting shutdown. Goddammit.
For those who want to relive the real vanilla experience, there is a private server launching with good working mechanics and scripts!! For more info visit kronos-wow.com
Niels sgevers Or you could wait for Nostalrius.
Both are well polished projects, but as far as I know, both are pvp servers, when there's already plenty of high-quality, well-scripted pvp private servers in excess. I'd rather look for a pve one for a brief, leisurely paced nostalgia.
Jon Doe Such a thing will never be made. Every server out there is PvP due to the broad appeal. I'm not joking or trying to be mean, I've literally never seen a PvE-only private server in my life.
TheOzumat And I don't deny the fact that pvp servers are generally more appealing, either. The only pve server I've ever seen is "Ascension" which isn't wholly polished and neither has an outstandingly large community.
For many people this is nostalgia for over a decade ago, for original vanilla, yet for me who never played it, this is already nostalgic from the launch of classic, with the constant disconnects and that time waiting with the message: "Position in queue: 35000, Estimated time: 8 hours" in the middle of the screen while listening to this. It was a good time.
only 4 days, 9 hours, 14 minutes for classic. I can do it.
soon™
12 more hours!
8 HOURS 59 MINUTEEEEES!
6 hours, 49 minutes
1 HOUR 13 MINUTES!!! 1 HOUR 13 MINUTES!
1:57 man... that sound..
Connecting to realm...
That sound !!
RIP Nostalrius
taken from us too soon
Ragnaros would say...!
oh, Chromie said otherwise. Welcome in Classic soon™ :)
rivenoak you don't realise what you have until it's gone.
Try northdale..
People can throw in the old call of duties or plug in your xbox 360 to relive the game. you can never go back in time and relieve World of Warcraft when it was first released. So glad I was apart of it
+Will Clements You actually can sort of go play on nostalrius its a Vanilla World of warcraft server everything is just how it was back in the day and tons of people play there ive put in like 40 day + /played time and im not bored yet so fun and addicting
+jordan huf RIP Nostalrius, I never went to play on it. But I'm sad it was taken down.
+Fox Mcloud no where near the same at all
Well looks like you can go back now boys
this comment aged like a fine wine i see
I miss it so much. BRB CRYING

27th of August, here we go!
22 years old now, I remember hearing this when I was 11 back in 5th grade. My god... time flies. The first moments in WoW and being overwhelmed with everything around me. Long live those memories
Im 30 and i first heard this 16 years ago, havent been playing since Pandaria came out right after WoTLK, about 10 years ago, but i still dream im grinding from time to time.
@@BakiNBGmaybe play one more time after almost more 10 years?:) old days good memories
Play one more time maybe almost 17 years dont play it one more time play and enjoy ur feel if u play one day told me:)
You may still be far off. But one day we will see you again, old friend!!
ninjabunny For me it's literally impossible to re-experience, I grew up as a gamer with it. When I started WoW, I played for fun, and over the course of the next 8 years turned into a powergamer. It was a much slower transformation than most go through, but it's not repeatable, even if you have the exact same game you started with, and I spent enough time at the intermediate stages to realise that.
One day hopefully
@@Sarfaraz30 3-4 months left
ninjabunny look now brother we go back home soon
@@ToxiicSniperx1 soon™
The original theme will always be the best. The game was so fresh it just felt like adventure is forthcoming!
I wish you could edit it so you can change your login screen
It is possible search on youtube
i think you can change it back to this
Lol you should spend a night in northdale its Just Like back in 2005 even more people around
this has to be the most powerful track in wow..
In movie...this MUST play
+Adam “EnssCZ” Ošťádal If it does the floor at my local Odeon is going to get sticky.
I will cry. A lot :D
It does play in the credits, I can confirm ^_^
That was fking awesome of them to do. Loved it.
I stayed till the end. Marvel conditioning lol I was expecting a teaser for the next one. Alas no. :( The warcraft movie gave me such goosebump throughout. Hope Sylvanas and Jaina in the next one.
This music is equal with the knowledge of entering a whole new world for the first time back in 2004. Unrepeatable moments in the gamer's life
BEST LOGIN MUSIC AND SCENE EVER...
Single manly tear..
God fucking dammit why do i always come back to this stupid game
Fucking Christ this brings back soo many memories!
of MC 40 wiping on trash
This music will forever have a very special place in my heart.
At least for me, it never gets old or dull or repetetive or boring.
It is a perfect piece of atmospheric background.
None of the latter login screens came even close.
My very first question in general chat was: "How can I safe that game".
We were all noobs back then.
I always wanted to use this music as my wedding theme, gladly i never got married.
"disconnected from server" music
WE DID IT BOYS WE’RE FINALLY GOING HOME TODAY
are we?
who else is here after the announcement ;)
Sonathern me!!!!!
Me
Hulk Hogan voice: damn right brother
This is the heart-wrenchiest music to ever heartwrench.
For some reson this song hits home, but i didnt even play back then. It has an old mmo rpg feel that i can recognize... its like fake nostalgia of some sort? Has anyone else felt this??
Time to go home
I am startin 2023 with this music...
Classic WoW gonna be released :)
Just had to hear this again to get prepared.
Do you know if they make realm split
DarKNeSSCaLLeD22 one day brother then we shall return home!
Realm is full
Position in queue: 15782
Estimated time: 460 min
i remember not logging in straight away so i could just listen to the music
I workout to this sometimes. Cringe, I know.
So many memories... so much felt listening to this and remembering. Such a experience beyond all others at the time. When WoW was released everything changed. I think of those days and smile but nothing lasts forever.
Im so sad i didnt play in vanilla. And BC. And Wotlk. Only Cata and Mop. FUCK.
If only we can play them again...I mean legit and not the private servers. I played Vanilla, BC, Cata and MoP. Hated the fact I couldn't play Wotlk (due to no money at the time)
Man, you really did miss out on so much, you have no idea. TBC and WotLK was the most memorable experience of my childhood/teenhood. I'll never forget those nights of roleplaying and raiding!
Zeveren I've played Vanilla, TBC, Wotlk Eng-games. TBC was the best by far. After that it was only gear that mattered, no skills at all. Catacylsm and MoP killed the game.
you wouldn't have liked them at all anyways, it was kind of like a "you had to be there" thing. really, i think MoP is one of my favorite expacs so far along with wotlk, i liked TBC Alot but really not ever getting to fight pass the first boss in sunwell made me so fucking pissed, that expac was way to hard, and the raiders we're even more gruesome. Vanilla WoW was kind of just who ever grinded the most and had the least social life succeeded the best, tbc was more about how good your guild was and it was REALLY hard on new players, wotlk was just amazing lore and raid wise, best expac hands down. cata is a fucking disgrace, and mop is pretty fun for how it went, i absolutely LOVE THE MONK CLASS, it really added alot of flavor into pvp.
i understand you.
Best wow music ever :) its still original, not overmade :)
I remember making my first character in Teldrassil and losing my fucking mind over the forest and the sheer size of everything. Oh innocence where did you go
This theme is pure orgasm for the ears. Ill never forget this incredible game.
We're going home.
Man i feel sad when I hear this after i see the actual state of the game
Who else is excited for Classic?
