This is nothiong like 2007 game

You have a lot of players with full Naxx gear and 20k plus gold.

Of course it will not be the same experience. Players out gear heroic content before they even walked through the dark portal making gearing up just a grind not a challenge.

Blizzard knew this would happen, hence why they did not release all raids on day one like in vanilla TBC.

Something 15 years old isn’t as good as you remembered it being when it first released? Remarkable!

TBC, for me, is a perfect zen game. Nothing is so challenging or flawed to create a frustrating experience. Nothing is so easy or boring as to fall asleep while playing, until it is (a couple hours at least, which is fine).

Progression, so far, doesn’t require daily logins or hooks, to make me login like other games. I log in because there is always something to improve: even fishing.

The community is different than before, but there are still cool experiences to share with others. I might be generalizing, but I think the difference in interaction this time around, is that more players are maximizing efficiency because of other obligations, and we know how to do that more easily.

WoW’s biggest flaw: I hate RMT, but the demand exists, in part, because of design mechanics that reward it. Its sort of quaint, and at least retail never fully morphed into microtransactions ftw, like mobile games do.

Finally, classic TBC has a unique community hypocrisy regarding the attitude of the paid 58 boost, vs the gold bought dungeon boost. Luckily, I think people are getting tired of making such a huge issue of both if they don’t need to control how others play (I’ve avoided the boost spam by ignoring lfg completely)

Maybe 3rd best at most, after TBC and WotLK.

You are the one who should have the attitude of 2007 only then you can have a similar experience.

If you look at what others are doing, their way of acting, speaking, interacting. You are lost friend.

Treat and respect the game as you did in 2007 and you will see how you have more fun.

It’s entirely subjective

I wouldn’t say there is a general best expansion, a lot of people really love TBC, a lot really love Wrath, a lot love mop, a lot love legion.

Hell my wife places Cata above mop, she really loves cata (though not as much as Wrath)

thought i will enjoy tbc but no… wts boost and wts tank or healer service kinda turn me off…i know since 2004 this exist but now it becomes rampant then those days. tbh i although i like wrath but doubt i will be coming back to wow ever with the community becoming worse. just gonna play till my sub ends in 3 months.

If we’re going to be real here, every single TBC pserver was bugged like this or worse. TBC itself was pretty darn buggy so I wouldn’t blame Blizzard for for tbc classic that much it’s just a buggy expac

Lol, people like yourself should just find yourself a private server… expecting the same exact game is just setting yourself up for failure. Even though it is virtually the same game with a few changes.

Obviously its subjective.

When claiming the best expansion tho you need to look at the mass appeal. Which would point to TBC and WotLK as being the “Best of” according to all evidence.

I don’t remember this game being this easy. It’s probably because I’m not some filthy noob

You can’t really definitively say that, just because they had the most players doesn’t make it the best expansion.

The thing about vanilla-Wrath was there was a lot of new people coming in, so you didn’t really see people leaving, but there was massive amounts of people leaving during that time too.

By mop 100 million accounts had been created, far more people have played this game and left than played concurrently. Maybe mop is objectively the best expansion, just most people had left already.
