First Expansion?

BC
/10 char

Burning Crusade…even though I did not buy it at drop.

Late Vanilla. “BC baby”.

I don’t recall. I began playing in 2011, I think it was in the middle to end of an expac at that time but I didn’t pay attention because I was enamoured of the world and trying to figure everything out.

Those days were fun.

Vanilla Open Beta.

That would be vanilla in 2006

January 19, 2006. Tail end of Classic.

Burning crusade when it came out. Didn’t take 4 days, while I was in hellfire, that I saw my first Dreanei shaman flying around in his gryphon.

My thought was “it’s only been 4 days, that dude has zero flarking life”.

At that point I was working on just getting money for the licence.

Brood War, Lord of Destruction, The Frozen Throne, The Burning Crusade.

I started WoW in its first expansion. And I’ve played every one of them since. I used to love BC but then BC came to Classic and I realized it’s pretty boring compared to modern WoW standards. But I still have nostalgia either way.

Started right after Naxx popped into the sky over Strat

I started playing WoW in spring of 2005.
During that time level 1 creatures were red.
You can only be loyal to one faction. You can not play both factions like it is today.

after all this time though, cross interaction with Horde and Alliance was bound to happen. You really couldn’t play an expansion without seeing that Horde and Alliance beef always got squashed cause of a larger threat and we were forced to work together. All that forcing us to work together and we made friends. Even in BFA we truly didn’t even want to fight each other.

I am sorry you didn’t like loyalty to one faction, but that’s how Vanilla WoW was back then. I love every bit of it.

sure vanilla but that was 2004 and its 2025. It’s time to hang up loyalty to one’s faction and embrace loyalty to Azeroth, friend. Your Horde leaders don’t even like you. Garrosh and Sylvanas didn’t do anything for your loyalty…

Probably why am looking for 3rd faction. To be loyalty to one faction again.

Started playing about a week after BC was in stores, So Wrath was my first
full expansion.

WoD, but never actually got to WoD content, it wasn’t until Legion that I hit the end game. I just found the leveling back then to be so boring that I would sub for a month and only play for like 5 days in total with probably less than an hour of gametime daily. Took me multiple attempts to get to max level.

I started at the tail end of WoD, so Legion was my first expansion, and I used the Legion invasion event in the prepatch to level a few characters.

i think it was legion ngl
