WoW players?

[TheSoulless]

It's all I think about nowadays, honestly. Pretty excited for Shadowlands since I started to do Mythic+ recently.

I play mainly classic. Got tired of BFA, gonna give shadowlands a try. I'm uncertain how that'll turn out though.

 

[Wayfaerer]

I used to play during classic all the way to the beginning of Cataclysm but I had lost all interest after that. I know nothing about the game past that point other then they had released some new expansions.

I played wow for ages starting in TBC and then on and off into BFA.

It was some A+ escapism when I was a teenager and needed to not be myself, but now that I'm older it's not as interesting, don't think I'll play shadowlands.

Actually I definitely won't be playing shadowlands because I'll be gone by then :p

I played for a year or so, into the first expansion. Excellent game, though i got tired of the community.

The original WoW was the best and I've been saying that since week 1 of The Burning Crusade. Everyone said that I had rose-tinted glasses and the original game wasn't all that great but I knew they were wrong. Back in 2015 I played on a private WoW server after having not played WoW at all in years and the experience had pretty much confirmed what I had been saying all that time. I don't think I've ever had as much fun (and frustration) in an online game ever. If I wasn't going to kill myself I'd consider whether it was worth breaking my decade-long blizzard boycott for WoW classic. It brings back so many memories...

Shadow priests where you at? Dropped it when mists came out tho.
Adderall and wow are some of my fondest memories.

I wanted to play it as a means of escapism. I do not have a career even though I went through more than enough education and consequently also do not have many (any apart from gf) friends. If anyone wants to start playing i will join their clan or whatever. Whatever free version there is of WoW, preferably. Otherwise I guess I'll just keep playing Monster Train.

AFAIK the free version is up to level 20 only. The problem with so many free games is that they are pay to win cash shop driven. The best one I found was Lord of The Rings Online, which didn't ram the cash shop in your face all the time like the Perfect World games do. I'm currently in Guild wars 2 and enjoying it.

Make love , not warcraft.

Fuck love, pretend to kill each other online instead.

Hey this is off topic but I'm really concerned and have to wait for a new thread to be approved. I'm worried someone just downloaded my files on a usb stick. I don't know if I can trust him but I wasn't thinking and he came over saying he needed to use my laptop to download pc reboot.

I will always have fond memories of wow. I played for years through the Mists expansion. I completely lost interest though because I over played it and the memories of me and my now dead fiance playing together hurt too much.

There are a few private (non retail) servers that aren't pay to win. I found the list on the sub reddit r/wowservers. The population isn't very high though on the few I tried. The pay to win ones are definitely terrible, those cash shops suck.

If your looking for free versions of wow you can try private (non retail) servers. I found the list on the sub reddit r/wowservers. Keep in mind many are pay to win but a few aren't like Tauri Wow (they are currently in the Mists expansion). The population is quite low sadly.

Worrying for you. I think maybe you need to have a conversation with him.

Forgot to mention that mage and shaman were my classes

I'm sure you're not the only one.

My shaman is my most played character, though now I think monk is the way to go.

Then again, I have a hard time choosing since there's so many options!

 

[Sinkinshyp]

I haven't played in years probably 4 or 5.. eq2 player here.

Damn, there I go, only talking about myself again.

My main was a mage... but I began playing a shaman many years later and ended up being main as shaman. I loved my shaman- those were alliance side. Horde side I played a priest. My everquest 1 guild was one of the top raid guilds world wide in eq1. Blizzard invited us to join a special phase of testing before release. We weren't alpha phase but it was before the beta phase. So you could say I began my wow playtime before beta- I bought it at release. I played for a couple of years and over the years have quit and come back periodically.

EQ2 came out in the same time as wow, I want to say they were less than 3 weeks apart. Again my eq1 guild was well known so we were invited to friends and family beta by SOE prior to the beta phase. I had been with eq2 off and on since our friends and family beta. I take breaks from both games at one time it was a 3 yrs break. I LOVE eq2. I haven't played wow in probably 5 years. So I am not sure what new has been added. If anyone wants to try eq2 ( everquest 2) message me- I'll tell you my server and help you out on it. There is a free to play version. You get content thats the expac prior to current. If you like it and want to play current content you would need to buy that expac.

I was hugely into WoW from the Vanilla Beta up to the more recent expansions, then I stopped raiding and stopped playing all together. Finances willing, I want to return for Shadowlands and play as soon as it launches. Resto Shaman main but considering a class swap for Shadowlands.

Cool story! What do you like in EQ over WoW?

Shadowlands definitely looks promising. I played Resto in BfA, but I'm switching since it's not really made for dungeons. Not that I'm obsessed with numbers.
