It’s amazing a game and system this old is still so popular and fun, yes it’s hard but damn it’s rewarding at the same time.
I’m only level 21 but am enjoying it so much I can’t see myself returning to retail anytime soon.
As we are at the end of BfA…anyone else made the switch to classic and how are you finding it?.
Switched to Classic. Well played both for a bit.
Switched back.
Classic forums are that way-------------------->
Hooray for you? This just sounds like a thinly veiled “classic rules retail drools” thread.
Although I’m not personally making the switch a few of my colleagues including my boss have.
He didn’t mind 8.2 but liked playing multiple tank characters (bear, prot war, blood DK) but 8.3 came and he noped out of the game so fast. (They are horde filth 
)
I’m not sure about me, I like the climate of modern WoW more (art etc). I’ve persisted far enough to complete normal Nya on Demon, but still having trouble getting last part of heroic done.
My plan is is get N’Zoth, passively do dailies and then work on older expansion content.
Like my mounts and transmogs too much, did try it for about a hundred hours and it was fun.
Glad you are liking classic, and I agree it’s fun.
I’m enjoying going back to retail though and wish you the best in your classic experience
Played classic and came back for 8.3. Went running back to classic. Feels more like home.
I started in classic, yeah, I know, my account doesn’t show it because this is my fifth account for reasons. Anyway, I loved it back then, but I just don’t have time for the grinding within grinding within another grinding to the point that I feel like chopped carrots. If you’re loving it, go for it, but it’s not for me anymore.
I hadn’t played retail in over a year when classic launched. Spent about a month there before popping in to see how BfA progressed since I left. I haven’t touched classic since.
God no, I quit in Vanilla until Wrath, why would I go back.
Played it a lot, very much enjoyed leveling and doing quests I missed the first time.
End game after the fun dungeon push is…lacking for me and PvP is a dumpster (massive queues, insane grind for rank (makes essences look FAST), and generally involves premade queue dodging).
I’ll still play it casually, but IMO leveling and the dungeons are the fun part.
was there, friends bailed too quick on it and back in BFA.
Kept the avatar because trust level 3 equals gifs…
The grinds in classic, to me, do not feel near as bad as retail’s does. IDK why, but that is the case.
Meh, as usual I’m glad people are enjoying it. Been there, done that for me. The magic is in the past for Vanilla.
Oh there are certainly grinds in retail, but to me, the grinds in classic feel like micromanagement grinds. It just feels like more work to me.
I guess that is the different in time gait versus micromanage. For some grinds, I know I can grind and grind and grind all day and make progress the whole time. For Retail, you can only get this set amount every day and you have to come back. That, to me, feels god awful.
You’re late to the party by several months.
See, for me, I like that. When I’ve done my daily allotment, I just do do something else, but because the grind in classic lets us go on and on, I go on and on and then it feels like a rut to me.
Now having said all that, it certainly is most satisfying to get the objective in one day. I just don’t have the stamina for that anymore.
I like having player choice. Retail does not give me choice, therefore it feels like a phone game restricting me from doing what I want to do. Classic allows you to play how you like and it feels amazing again.
