Me, a 34 year old dude. Trying to spend my time wisely and checking out "Should You Start Playing WoW in 2024?" videos
Hello fellow loser :)
If you decide to play, hope you enjoy it lmao. Have a good one, mate.
Me a 26 year old, absolutely worried about my future and here I am checking out "Should You Start Playing WoW in 2024" 😌
@@AmithyaLiyanage Its my case! :D last time i played 15 year ago... :D and as father right now... looks good to me. start again :D :D

It's important to note WoW is starting to cater more to solo players. In the next patch, you can run Dragonflight dungeons by yourself with npc companions. In the next expansion, there is "endgame" content with Delves which can be ran with 1-5 players and an npc companion to tag along.
Important to note that the dungeon runs with a group of NPCs only applies to “normal” difficulty dungeons. So only the easiest dungeons can be played this way and subsequently doesn’t drop the highest level gear. It’s still a neat feature tho I hope they keep adapting it over time.
Can't wait! I was a hard core raider during vanilla through Lich King, but no time for that now so having a FF14 style npc dungeon system is going to be awesome!
I have no problem with them broadening accessibility so long as it doesn't take away from anything else. Allowing someone to run a dungeon with NPCs or by themselves doesn't mean that I'm prevented from scaling the difficulty and/or running with my friends.
As a new player, I was glad to hear this. No one wants to help the fng. The game has become way too bloated, and trying to figure out how to progress is overwhelming. All these different currencies for different things. Ridiculous. I was a long time player when Destiny 2 experienced the same problem. I remember thinking, "I can't imagine a new player trying to jump in now with how bloated this game has become."
Same i loved to play wow switched to FF around 8 years ago and since then i play WoW on and off and love that it gets added. It will make it so much easier for people to enjoy Dungeon content as casuals and will open up for more players. I know for example people who play almost only for themself and maybe touched a dungeon once in 5 years but with that npc system they will definetly go in and enjoy them @@hammerofscience534
I am 63 years old...I started playing in 2006, until BFA. Just got DF, 3 months ago...and love it. Dragonflying is AWESOME!!! I'm totally solo player...And the graphics are 👍. Love it.
I am 56 and am seriously thinking of coming back. I need a new computer though. I was always a solo player cuz very few wanted to give me the tome of day. I could never get enough gold to buy a good maunt and it was crazy seeing people with UBER amounts of $$. What do ya think lesmar?
@@gib59er56 I had to buy a new comp, (just to play WOW and...FLIGHT SIM)...my old one could not load either... The funny this is...when I'm playing LFR, I have to turn down graphics because it is just too much!!! Nothing wrong with soloing, look on-line and you will see all a solo player can do. I mostly like Raiding LFR. I have my own guild with all my toons, (11) with (3) 70's My fav is BM hunter, Frost DK, and Feral Druid...Just do what you like, thats what I do. FOR THE HORDE!
What type of computer to run it smoothly
@@Jammer2727 Far be it from me to suggest...but, get the best you can afford. Considerations, I looked at the minimum to play and bought one that far exceeded it. I have an XPS and have zero issues...only that the graphics are toooo much sometimes in raids....I literally turn it down to zero. It helps.
@@lesmar234 HORDE ALL THE WAY 1111
if you die in hardcore you don't loose your character if you want to continue on your character you can move that character to normal classic realms
So you tighten that loose toon up?
Im a brand new player and have been having a great time. People are friendly, made a couple friends and people who took time to genuinely teach me things about the game. Been a lot of fun just exploring and slowly but surely learning the game.
Welcome to Azeroth!
Are you playing retail or wrath classic?
Same. Been playing like 3 months and have two endgame characters now and I’m loving it

@@austinjohnson3977what’s the difference between the retail and classic?
Crazy to think you're about to hit 1 Million subscribers! I've been watching since your first zergling rush video, and you've definitely always been one of my inspirations in content creation. I've been coming back to WoW too recently and have been having a ton of fun with it! Fun to see that we're interested in the same games once again. Can't wait for all the new things WoW has around the corner.
More subscribers than blizz now.
The other great thing about Hardcore classic is the starting zones are always full of players
I just made a druid lvl 30 now and im having a blast taking my time rediscovering the world after 10 years, can't wait fto get to the raids.
Dude I’m thinking about it
Been about 15 years for me, drood life 😎
Idk, i quit around mid-cata and came back a month ago, and idk, somehow the game feels dead (classic wotlk). In 30 lvls i met a handfull of people, probably able to count encounters on 2 Hands; whats Ur expierence? & is there more life in retail?
This weekend I’m going in again. Hardcore!

I'm enjoying WoW more now than I have since Legion. I still think they need to open every instance up to every player (especially while leveling) but the game is in great shape over all.
Legion was the last time i really enjoyed the game. What exactly do you enjoy about DF? The game is light years away from being in great shape. Worst expansion after SL. Even WOD wasn't this bad
The bit about people jumping in to help was my favorite part. Thats pretty cool.
These discoveries remind of Star Wars Galaxies - and how each class had a different unknown random series of events/achievements which would unlock the jedi-sub class for their character.
One of the best MMOs i have ever played... unfortunately SOE totally f*d it up
I just bought the expansion for Black Friday sale, game is more fun then ever, I’m having a great time
Just a correction. Evoker has 3 Specs. Healer, DPS and the first ever true Support spec "Augmentation"
Guess he missed that since they implemented that in the middle of the xpac.
Cool
@@Nightstalker314 oh absolutely no hate in my original comment, just wanted to put it there since that was another pretty big addition to WoW in Dragonflight. A full new role.
im looking at getting into it in the next couple weeks, havent played since legion. heard dragonflight is really good. How does the support spec go? what role does it fill in raids and mythics, can they pull their wieght with dps etc
@@GamingJokait’s broken and a must pick in all forms of pve content. It was a massive mistake adding it, it’s been nerfed several times and is still a must have in raids/m+
Having never played WoW, or really cared for it, I've been ever more curious about it since Dragonflight, which is fun to think about.
Goodness. If I was still in the same place I was back then, I would love to play that discoveries one. Unfortunately, I just got too addicted to it. Instead, I do different hobbies now.
Glad to see Force is still doing videos.
Oh yeah, that's what i did a lot too, made bis lvl 19 hunter, 29 warrior 39 druid, 49 shaman, and 59 warlock. Just slayed with them!
To hear you dismiss the story of WoW through Wrath of the Lich King - a literal genre-defining storyline that made this franchise timeless during an era where it existed amongst a sea of strong competition - really encapsulates a lot about what I hate so much about modern MMOs and its players.

Wow classic is great. Very excited to see what SOD brings 🤘🏼
04:37 battle to the death part couldn't get anymore hilarious with that mage putting his hands in the air at curtain moments before losing the duel lol
Please consider using timestamps as it makes it easier to navigate through what new/players who want to come back are most interested in
I never played wow (I always wanted to) until this month even with the graphics and combat (imo kinda boring) I can feel the charm of the game and why it has been successful for so long...retail feels more straight forward and linear, leveling is faster while wotlk classic is way more grindy and slower paced but more impactful and meaningful, theres a feel of a huge knowledge wall that probably makes the game way more interesting and with more content than just leveling but probably not entirely needed to enjoy and progress...btw i was playing it solo so with friends or in parties both games are probably more enjoyable I wish I could played this game while it was at its peak though
It is sad that you don't know wow's older lore it actually used to be some of the deepest game lore in recent history, only things I know of that are any where near as lore rich are table top games like 40k and DnD. Final Fantasy probably also would get a vote from me too, it is a 30+ year old series. There are a few historians on wow that go from begining to end. For me why I was killing the boss was as important and actually doing it, made you feel more invested and part of it all. I still like that feeling though knowing the bosses crimes or story. Like Illidan for example was imprisoned for war crimes he committed against his people during the war with the Burning Legion (he was a night elf at one point) and for creating a fount of power (the demon hunter by infusing those of elven blood with the blood of demons). For those crimes he was hunted down along with his army and put on trial by the Night Elf Wardens and sentencted to eternal imprisionment (along with his followers). This prision sentence was commuted in Legion when the Burning Legion attacked in full force. That info minus the legion stuff really made killing Illidan important, also Illidan was one of my favorite "villains" because he isn't all bad, and becomes the hero again. Anyway I do hope one day when you are bored and have down time you look at some of the older lore.
Thought I would check in to see how the game is going after many year and seen then perfect channel to explain. thanks!
Ive never played wow but was considering starting. Really like the dragon race
The talent system is.. phenomenal. I am constantly tweaking and theory crafting. Yes, you can easily just copy/paste the "best" specs from Icyveins, but so much more fun to actually learn your talents and class and tweak the heck out of them. I have specs saved for Solo, Group, PvP, Raid, Dungeon, Mythic, AoE, Single Target... such a greatly improved system. Paladin is also amazing right now. All specs feel and look good! Holy is the most fun it's been in years.
i started wow a few months back and it has been fun! initially I started with retail, which was fun but people arent as social, so i dumped it and tried classic and....WOW, everyone is helpful and talking, a completely diffrent game! if your new coming into the game, I say go with classic first
I first started playing WoW in 2014/15, after getting addicted to Hearthstone. I haven’t played since Legion, but I’ve been feeling like I should start up again since I have a functioning computer now 😊
I'm about to come back for retail just wondering if im gonna come back now or wait for the next expansion and skip dragonflight and get it free. What do you guys think? Get dragonflight or wait?
I would totally still play it I think, were it not for the extremely toxic player base. What you're showing here is the leveling experience which would entertain just about anyone. The issues rear its head in end game when you have to play in groups.
MANY WHELPS!!! HANDLE IT!!! THAT"S A MINUS 50 DKP!!
I played WoW until BFA and then stopped, the story and gameplay is pretty ok until you reach the "endgame", everyday doing the same dailys, the one dungeon, the one weekly raid, the same 3 old raids to get the mounts like clockwork ... at that time it felt more like a job where I had to pay to do it ^^"
I've never played wow for longer than 6 months since wow classic era, TBC, WotlK, etc.... But here i am, 9 months into Wotlk classic and still enjoying it everyday!
Coming back for season of discovery has been great, feels like grade 10 again.
I love the game because of its insanely rare items. Always loved hunting for 1 in a million items.
I just started 2 weeks ago and just hit lvl 70 and working on my item level. having a ton of fun so far!
It's copy paste though how is that fun man
@jay-ti4bt I've been playing like 2 weeks max. Everything is new to me. I'm not a 20 year player who has seen everything multiple times.
If it's too much of the same for you then hop into a different game and get what you're looking for. Variety is the spice of life 🤷♂️
"the community will find them and they will tell you. " you are the first person talking about season and Discovery and tells that truth. That's why I like you.
Played WoW on and off since release, most recently quitting halfway through Sanctum when my laptop started randomly overheating and I couldn’t Mythic raid anymore. My issue is that I can’t play it casually. Whenever I return I end up quickly getting sucked into raiding and want to do it at the highest level, which was fine during COVID but I can’t make that time or mental effort commitment anymore. Still, it was a very prominent part of my teenage years (as was WC3) and I occasionally get a strong itch to come back or at least check out what’s going on with the game. Season of Discovery sounds pretty fun, always wanted to have healing as a mage.
Season of Discovery will be so fun! Honestly just the banded level caps are enough to make the game fresh and much more approachable
Came back 2 weeks ago to HC after 17 years away and i cant stop playing. Have died a dozen times but i keep playing. Love HC more games need it. Also me and a friends who havent played together in years are having a blast.
What is HC?
@@gaddielrascon825 Hardcore, which means when you die you lose that character. Gives more "meaning" and "suspense" to the game, I suppose.
Hey everyone, figure this is a good place to ask this: I've heard good things about DF. I played wow a decent amount up to MoP and didn't really go further than that. If i was to start again, how daunting would it be go catch up to current expansion?
When I was younger I LOVED the classic bosses and raids (Onyxia, Azuregos, AQ) but i was never good enough to do them myself.
I know you can gear up and go through those classic instances pretty easily now, but is the new content good as well?
I feel like MMOs are the one thing you can't stop playing because if you do, so much new content, lvl caps, gear, etc. come out that its overwhelming to anyone just starting out (or returning after many years).
14:25 this is what’s putting me off tbh, that hot bar looks insane and idk if I can play casually like that. I wanna ask if it’s as complicated as it looks, or if that many abilities slotted and hotkeys are necessary to play the game effectively?
hey, imma give you a late reply. i played wow almost 10 years ago, hotbars have always looked like that in this game, but let me tell you it's not as complicated as it looks! it completely depends on you how many skills you wanna use. you can just stick to few. you start the game with just few of them, so as you level up you learn more and more abilities and how they work. most of them are buffs or something you wouldn't use in most fights. i always played PVE and you can basically just spam few first spells. i think variety matters more in PVP
I quit at the end of BFA and skipped shadowlands but just got back for the end of DF and I am having a blast once again its pretty solid.
I have returned to retail after classic. Honestly for the first time i appreciate the design choices in WoW. The end game is engaging and exacly what I would want out of the game. A sense of progression while playing the class tbat feels best and trying to optimize dps while doing mechanics. The rotations feels fun and engaging always. Unlike those in FFXIV where its all about memorizing a long rotation and long list of mechanics.
I'm not going to say FFXIV endgame raids are the most dynamic and engaging content bits I've ever seen, but it's ages ahead of anything going on in WOW. If you like the game better that's great. But comparing a Honda to a BMW and saying the Honda is better cuz you say so, is some next level government grade copium.
@@godofm3tal1 story and glamour aside, what is FFXIV better at? It's leveling experience is tedious even after ARR content. Classes are very scripted with 0 room for trying out different playstyles, the most incentive things you can do in a class in FFXIV is to choose DH over CRIT. Brilliant.
End game scene in FFXIV has been following the same template since HW. 4 savage fights, 1 raid you can do while being asleep, and 1 ultimate fight every now and then. It's not enough to fill a season. Once you are done with savage and current ultimate you got nothing but playing old ultimates and farming glamour/mounts.
WoW is the opposite of all of the above. Mythic raids lasts as a challenge for much longer, the m+ dungeon runs and key pushing is brilliant way to keep players engaged and seeking better gear, drops etc. The gear upgrade is much more complete here as opposed to FFXIV where you got one upgrade and that's it.
I have played FFXIV since 1.0 btw, so I am not bullshiting you here, and got no bias to defend wow whatsoever, but it is a much more complete game in the aspects that are gameplay related.
@@godofm3tal1 FFXIV blows
@@godofm3tal1 Honda is more reliable, so it's better in that sense. Honda is cheaper so it's better in that sense. Your comparison makes no sense.
I can attest. 20 years ago ...brings back so many memories...Leeeeeeroooooy. hahahahaha miss those days of where we all came together and formed 40 man raids that lasted several hours of pure skill and fun.
My mom taught me to play this game, and it has been one of my favorites for a few years now. I love this game and the history, exploring and it’s fun!!
Yes current DF is actually fun. The current M+ dungeons are great, Raid is good as well and most classes are fun to play. SoD seems interesting too but, im not really a classic player, but gonna check it out for sure.
Dragonflight has been a strange expansion. It's the best retail WoW has been since Legion(and I would argue it's even better than Legion since Legion's systems were terribly grindy and not casual friendly), and yet the reception of DF has been terrible. WoW players truly don't know what they want from the game anymore, even when the game is good they can't stop whining.
@@Hooga89 Most of the “game is good” of DF is blizz just undoing poor decisions made over the last decade. So if by “good” you mean “they stopped stepping on my balls” ya sure it’s great. But in terms of actual new improvements that aren’t just reverting things, not much has changed of note. There’s dragon riding……and that’s about it. Idk about you, but I expect more than that from Blizzard.
And you can moan about how people are just whining or whatever, but that doesn’t accomplish anything. If people are dissatisfied, then that’s just how it is and childishly saying crap like “people don’t know what they want” won’t change that sentiment.
@@omegaxtrigun Sorry but nobody really has any actual criticisms of the game anymore, everything is just "Blizz only cares about money" or "D4 bad".
@@Hooga89 you don't know what you're talking about.
@@Knifehands__ Dragonflight is a good expansion, people just hate the purple and pink dragons. If Shadowlands had the same systems as DF people would say Shadowlands was the best expansion in 5 years.
16:40 I haven't played Dragonflight but i believe they added a 3rd spec to Drakthir so it is not just 2 as it was on launch.
Devastation, Preservation and then they added Augmentation later on 😅
Hi! RUclips has added a chapters feature for videos. Quite a while ago.
Question about sod,
Are they reseting progression for each phase?
And how long the duration for each phase?
No and around 2-3 months depends
@@brimstonevalar6053 oh it didnt reset?
I thought since it was "season", it'll reset per season(3month)
But there still a reset/wipe right? Is it safe to say it'll be at least a year before they wipe for season change?
Edit : i searched for the info about the season duration before they'll wipe, but couldnt find any info anywhere
I came back after a few years and I have been loving it. I wish my old guild wasn't on life support
Should have titled this video "Playing WoW classic in 2024"
is twinking active in sod now?
i just started like 2 weeks ago and I'm loving it
I just started again like two days ago😭
As a completely new player who started about a week ago, I really like the game! Long have I been in a search for a interesting and good MMO, after I had to quit ESO and WoW seems to fill that void.
EDIT: I play both, Classic and Retail though more Retail.
Retail is dog sheet these days
@@levithirsk5447 I wouldn't say so 🤔 atleast for a completely fresh player it has been quite fine imo :)
@@forest_hobo I think that’s because you really have no perspective on wow in it’s prime so of course it’s acceptable to you🤷♂️ retail wow has been changed and reworked a hundred times now and is nowhere near as good as the game was at its height. Too many convoluted systems in place now.
@@levithirsk5447 yeah I think so too. And I totally get why so many long time players have left the game as they have seen all of its best days and its worst days and I guess had I been playing from the very first I'd feel the same way too.
@@forest_hobo to reiterate I’m just sharing my opinion of retail vs classic. I’m glad you are having fun!
Started playing solo and this is the best experience I've had in the past decade. 20+ Mythics and heroic raiding are pugable within two weeks of starting.
This comment makes me want to play again, I got back when DF started but quit after a couple months, I miss it
Okay so I never considered that the pve level caps in season of discovery mirrors how pvp had the 19, 29, etc. back in the days and now I'm fucking hyped for it.
I've never played WoW before. Does anyone know/think I would like the season of discovery if I really like exploring in other games? Or do you think I would need some WoW experience/nostalgia to appreciate it properly?
I just started wow myself. I started in retail dragon flight. I don’t think it makes a difference where you start personally
I love hardcore mode. It reminds me of when I was a kid and how utterly detrimental a death was playing classic. It makes everyone feel like a substantial Denizen of azeroth and seeing 60s is sorta like... woah nice 👌
I have been on and off a lot in the past with WoW but Dragonflight had managed to keep me entertained for a long while now! I'm still playing and having a blast. Love or hate it, it's still one of the best mmos you can be playing currently

Can failing at platforming kill you in classic hc?
I don't think I'll ever really stop playing. I get jaded and stop for months at a time, but I always come back and find things to get excited about.
If you wanna try the vanilla WoW experience to see if it's for you, Turtle WoW is a free to play private server. It's very well populated, has a hardcore mode and tonnes of extra quests and content.
Dragonflight is awesome ❤ you should try it. Can’t wait for The War Within, Midnight and The Last Titan it’s gonna be a lot of fun😅😊
how do you access hardcore mode?
Classic it's where it's at. Season of Discovery is going to be awesome!
Yes. Simply yes.
Dragonflight feels like soft relaunch of wow with almost all systems redone to be more time friendly and fun.
Go on guys its FIRE
Sadly , that’s not what makes wow great. What makes wow great is the open world feeling and community side of it that made it really feel like a world. Sadly that does not exist anymore. So take this guys comment with a grain of salt please.
@@BillyTheKidOfficialYT Season of discovery is for you then
@@BillyTheKidOfficialYTas long as there's enough players for free roam pvp
Really looking forward to profession's in Season of Discovery, crafting epic lvl 25 BiS gear with leatherworking 😎
So I think I'm about an expansion behind. If I was to dive into the classic discovery stuff. Do I need to have the most up to date retail expansions?
Not to my knowledge? Classic discovery I believe is just part of the base expansion subscription so I don’t think you’d need to get dragonflight. I could be wrong
so the runes system is finally turning wow into GW2. I like that. And regarding the discovery gameplay, unless the locations are randomized, google will have a nice list of all locations to bypass the whole thing.
DF is amazing and fixed so many issues, it just has no hype. The war within should be a banger and its a great time to start
the Story is it's one glaring issue, but everything else is really good,
I've been maining holy pala since MoP, and really don't like what they did with the 10.1.5 rework.
what did they do to Hpala that was so bad exactly? long as i can be a Shockadin, i dont give a fudge.@@devnull1013 Holy was gonna get nerfed after being in the god comp.
Theres a totally optional questline about the Blue Dragonflight that is seriously one of the best questlines WoW has ever done. Overall the story has been okay
agreed, not the best, but the side stories are great.
Overall story is okay? Lmao what did you smoke my man?
@@Wotanson56 the main story through the zones was good. Zaralek cavern with Fyrak being a distraction and getting corrupted was okay. Albeit they didnt talk about a lot of obvious things to talk about like the whole void chamber with giant chains, so meh. Emerald dream was interesting, but a little unfulfilling in the final raid cinematic. But theres more story coming too. The blue flight side quest was amazing. Baines quest was awesome(i think). So yeah, overall the story had been okay id say
not everybody takes the story/lore that seriously, dude, tbh i thought that the story was fine until we got past 10.1, then the campaign goes to shit after that, devolving into that raid finale which was stupid.@@Wotanson56
was literally about to say they looked at Old School Runescape and did that.... then the ad for trailblazer comes on xD
i want to get into playing retail wow but i don't have money to buy the new expansion so i ask if its worth to play without the dlc... i played wow wotlk but was a private server back a few years cause i could even run the rertail game my notebook sucked, now i have a good pc i wanted to try
Yea no. Been playing classic , tons of people everywhere , people helping each other , role playing , you travel the world it feels alive, feels like an adventure. Tried retail it i coulnd get passed lvl 20. Didnt meet a single soul , everything is fragmented and convoluted , the game hold your hand and force you into an island where you will level until almost max , Nobody in chat , NOBODY in the world questing , people i saw are legit muted. tons of side systems that feels like an actual mobile game, Everything feels meaningless , you xp fast , you travel fast , you get gear so fast , gold isnt a problem , every zone scales and the world feels fake ,you can xp anywhere. It all feel more of like instanced solo rpg more than anything.i was amazed how different it was to the wow i know. Even the main quest is fragmented between all timelines , it just break immersion so strongly. It just feels like a smokescreen of a game. I hated it.
WoW is in a great state now and awesome. Just return after many many years absence.
Same here!
It's a fact. I have been trying to get into WOW since 2015. I never got to play it as a kid, and by the time I started working I was "too cool" for a stupid MMORPG when I have the bro-iest of the bro-iest games to play(Counter-strike). After I grew out of my teenage phase, I always wanted to play wow, but never had people to do it with. I would keep trying wow and quitting after an hour or two. SOD kept me for a week.
I am now giving it another chance, and wow is it so much better now than the last few times I tried.
I still haven't decided if I am going to stick to Retail or go to classic/SOD.
So far my experience has been that retail is a lot more like what other modern mmos do(a lot of qol stuff, but also a lot of useless systems that are there for complexity only) but they kinda fixed it a bit with the reworks a bit. SOD is very scary because it's all older players, I haven't come across a single player that didn't say (oh yeah I used to play this back in xxxx) and same with Classic.
I keep seeing these new players that are playing classic in comments and stuff, but I don't see them in the world? What server are ya'll at wtf lol.
I agree with you about the pvp during bc and wotlk era. I played daily and loved my lvl 19 and 59 pvp toons. Played them as much as my main. 🤙
Played it back in vanilla but i am old with a family now and definitely do not have time to wait for grouping for raids etc anymore
There's a reason WoW was such a massive cultural phenomenon. It was an amazing game. That game doesnt exist anymore.
It exists it's just that most people play games for views instead of making friends and socializing on there which for me was the main reason I played it so long.
They got too greedy, jacked with the lore, sold to Activision and then fired most of the talent. The icing on this shitcake is Kotick's toxic reign over WoW.
Lok’tar ogar
It is what you make it.
Still exist, but for YOU is not fun anymore, don’t generalize your feeling with all other players, that’s on you
I’m be honest WoW Dragonflight is one of WoW’s greatest expansions. It was awesome. 👏
It "was"? I quit WoW a few years ago and wanted to check it out now after this video. So shouldn't i even bother installing it right now because something new comes anyways?
Sorry, I'm drunk :D
Was as in the last raid tier has already been released (last major patch will have the 3 already released raids in "fated" rotation like in Shadowlands last patch)@@mexmax1657
started playing 4 months before bc released and played all the way until bfa should i come back ?
I used to play on a pirated server when I was a kid (couldnt afford monthly subscription) and enjoyed it alot. Tried to play a few years ago with subscription and couldnt enjoy how it is now. Now going for WoW Classic and Hardcore. So happy to come back to what I feel is WoW. For the Horde
It's beyond time for a new game. Enough is enough.
I'm an older player--I have slower reflexes and memory than when I was younger--and I still have hard feelings about being kicked off pick-up groups on dungeon runs in WOW. Is somebody in our group less able? Throw him out so we can get somebody better.
After trying the other major MMOs, I have settled on Guild Wars 2. The player base in GW2 seems more mature, sympathetic, and helpful than the player base in WOW, and the game seems more nuanced and modern.
That’s simply not true, GW2 has the same assholes, wow has the same helpful people, depends where you look
Depends highly on the content . In Raid there are the same assholes . Doing low tier fractals are fine but high tier Fractals there are also the elitist and crack speedrunners
That's what social guilds are for.
I’m not sure if this is real. Hope you find your group. Find the game that’s fun for you. PS always push yourself - don’t get into a rut.
@@Undecided_ GW2 is my Classic WOW game. I love the game and I love the community, but yeah it's all friendly faces and nice people until you try to do any challenging content. Heck early days I got abused by catmander because I didn't know the Meta(it was my first meta and it's a fucking meta ffs, even if I was perfect, 1 person hardly makes a difference when the whole map is doing the meta.
Anyways, After that I realised that it's the content that attracts a specific type of player, so for any mmorpg if you want to do the hard content and not be abused, joing a guild with mature players(not older just mature) will make any mmorpg feel like it has a great community.
In last 2 years I played Lost Ark, NW, GW2, FF14, ESO and now WOW and the only game where the community itself is toxic is lost Ark. GW2, FF14, ESO have all had lovely guilds that I joined, that do everything from fun community nights to high end raiding. They were all full of lovely people looking for a safe space to enjoy their games. Lost Ark is the only game where i never found that. I ended up with a static group that disbanded and I never managed to get another group before quitting.
I haven't found my home in WOW yet, but I only played for few days, I'm sure with time I will find a guild that isn't bunch of insecure manchildren.

Was about to say that in case Force doesn't have time to watch Ralph's.
does anyone know how I can get wow to remove my authenticator? I have contacted them numerous times and still asks for the authenticator code.
2019 classic release was fun but hardcore classic captures the 2004 community feeling a lot more. Hyped for Season of discovery!
WoW vid sposored by jagex lol
I myself want to try getting in WoW this year (again). ive tried it over the last year, but since Lotro is my main MMO i had a rough time staying there. Only classic kept me for a while, even though i like Retail too.
Especially for the Achivement Hunting, Complecionist and collectors/gathering aspect. Since i am not a long time wow player nor in the game from the beginning, i cant relate to most criticism beside endgame community/content things. And because i am more of an "do all quests" and explorer type of player i think wow i quiet cool. I mean, i still think that lotro does many things way better like Story development and Landscape, i always wanted to be a WoW player deep in my heart.
I’ve been enjoying my DH. I pop on, play for a bit and go.
We need a MMO built from the ground up based on the concept of perma death
There is Mortal Online. Problem is these games attract a bad kind of community.
For sure Season Of Discovery is worth a try, vanilla wow is GOLD and with these changes it will be super interesting and fresh !!
can you use current character on it or just new char? i started yesterday and now im confused about it?
@@kryhchomost likely have to start a new character. But just play the one you made for now and enjoy it. Then try Discovery once it launches
@@TerraFilmTV ty man. im enjoying it as a newbie
dude no who even wants to play some old boring xpac only boomer an ppl who bad at retail like classic
It's not about being hard, it's about the experience. Retail and vanilla are vastly different You want a challenge, that is fine.
Does it affect you negatively if people enjoy season of discovery ?@@giovannix108
I really want this game but I can’t justify paying monthly for a game I’d rather pay one time price
I was always a starcraft gal, & the "biggest" mmo I've ever experienced was the sandbox of Runescape. I got into skyrim finally in 2018 & even then it took me a full year IRL to feel comfortable enough to use a horse in game(yea, I played everyday & WALKED around skyrim sneaking). I figured since I'm branching out & brave enough to feel ready to play ESO, I wanted to look into WoW because the one I love loves this game
Yes you should. Dragonflight is really good
WoW is the most new player friendly it'll ever be imo. You get everything just by leveling. No more need for trainers which was super annoying to me but now I'm having fun questing and running dungeons as a priest. Retail is in a good spot rn.
actually it'll be at it's best when Dragonflight is the NPE.
I play overwatch and hearthstone atm. Hearthstone has really tempted me to wanting to start WoW. A bit scared but I do wanna try.
Are people still playing wow hardcore, i was wondering if i should try it but do ppl still play it?
Give Blizzard money? Are you insane?!!!
For this same reason i play on private servers
Wait people still care about this?
Why not? The games fun
What’s insane about paying for a good game? lol
It’s a good game rn
I would recommend players come and experience Season of Discovery. The classic wow setting is really chill and relaxed, and a good entry into wow. Modern wow (retail) isn't much fun in my opinion.
Wait, Force streams, I had no idea!
Been playing since vanilla i skipped dragonflight but im ghonna return aswell for a while i think. Wow is a game that just like runescape always pulls me back in.
