Ever been kicked from a dungeon just for typing "/brb"? Join us as we unravel this common tale and challenge the assumption that elitist behavior in World of Warcraft is exclusive to either retail or classic players. We share personal anecdotes from our adventures in both game versions, demonstrating that speedrunning and high expectations aren't just a retail phenomenon. We also explore the surprising reality that positive interactions can often be more frequent in retail WoW. Along the way, we tackle controversial opinions from the forums, reflecting on critiques of the demon hunter class and the nuances of spell clipping, inviting you to rethink these aspects of your gameplay.
As we journey deeper, discover why the classic version of World of Warcraft continues to hold a cherished spot in players' hearts despite its flaws. We dive into the rich lore, with quests like "The Missing Diplomat" still sparking intrigue. Ever imagined a third faction for certain races? We entertain this whimsical idea while offering candid thoughts on the Shadowlands expansion—from its storytelling missteps to the grind of the PvP gearing process. Join us for a reflection on nostalgia, the evolving landscape of WoW, and why this iconic game remains a beloved adventure for millions.
Hope you all enjoy and hope you relate to any of these stories. And I will speak to you all in the next episode!
