:DDDDDDD im dead

I lol-ed so hard, i'm in tears

Aaah I just rewatched this and just had to laugh at that.. then it's first comment. Perfect! :P

Pro trick: you can watch movies on Flixzone. Been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.

@Daxton Keaton Definitely, I've been watching on flixzone} for since december myself =)

it was so epic someone actually exploded

that really was a quality moment

@@leofera1137 Spontaneous cataclysm

@Brock Lesnar Alpha Male arent you special

@Brock Lesnar Alpha Male hahahahahahaa bravo

@@danielroach2089 He's not wrong tho. Flying in azeroth made the world feel incredibly small, didnt see people as much and wpvp was completely dead

@Brock Lesnar Alpha Male Funny how no one cares

@@ianneilson8684 I definitely agree, it was a mistake that made the world feel unimportant. You'd just fly to wherever you needed to go and get it done really quick, there used to be some level of adventure in running past mobs and potentially having to engage in world pvp along the way. After flying, you never really had to worry about world pvp again which sounds ok on paper for some but really takes away a lot of the adventure in the game.

There are always new monsters...

@@TommyDaGreatest as well as new dungeons and raids)

Path of the tit? You have my attention

Oh how the times have changed

"Be careful what you wish for"

Flying is awesome, the game desperately needed it.

@DoctorClockwork It enhanced wpvp. You could seek out and stalk your prey instead of waiting around quest hubs. And don't blame flying for Blizzard cutting corners on terrain design, blame the Timeless Isle. Look at WoD even, same shit we have now and it wasn't going to have flying at all!

@@Kataroku it ruined pvp and made the world feel even smaller

TheButtheadd The Worgen literally Sent a shiver down my spine

me too omg

I remember when everyone was wondering what will be next after WoTLK, the hype was at max level

Plz stop lie cata was garbage

@@Baxa125 Yea, but since Cata came up, WoW became a garbage.

Glory days are gone, but funny thing is that people don't remember how many were complaining during wotlk and cata but people are forgeting about that so they can spit on what is currently happening, ppl always were complaining and will, that is in us.

Glory days are coming back

J. Allen Brack is like a limp noodle...and Ion is kinda lame too. Alex Afrasiabi was okayish. Brackenstein is more of a corporate shill type so he'll sell out the franchise's quality to appease his masters. For years MMOs talked about what would be the next WoW killer....I said years ago...Only WoW will kill WoW.

He genuinely loved Warcraft unlike people working on it now

@@11123fsd Stupid comment.

@@Stewquisitor How so? Look at current WoW and tell me the people making it are passionate about it. You can't.

@@11123fsd And you can look at the game and list every developer, artist, and producer by name and tell me they don’t have passion for the game? Go ahead, I’ll even give you 24 hours to list them. Don’t be a child and flex negativity on an entire team you don’t even know. Ignorant brat.

It was glorious, especially compared to how things are now. But truthfully, even the talk of cata felt like things were about to decline. It was bittersweet, because new challenges were coming but ‘authentic’ wow felt like it was going away

Your picture made me read that in master chiefs voice lmao

But in opposite with human und dwarfs who got updated in WOD, the old Worgens still looked good

And all the other Classic races tbh

The old races got an update 10 years after stfu lol

People play worgen?

@@CHRSS111 Yeah I'm a Worgen player

I was watching the announcement with a friend while we were sitting by his toaster of a pc. He bought a blizzconline ticket (think it was the first time they did such a thing?) and we both sort of crapped our pants from the excitement of a whole new world to discover! The gaming industry now doesn't have the same magic anymore, while I'm happy to have lived through this I'm sad to know that the new generations likely wont experience the same kind of magic. But watching this makes me happy for the memories and good times this game has given me, and still do.

@@frankielala6515 Amazing man, but maybe games nowadays don't feel as magical because we're older? I get what you mean though, feels like years since I've been excited about any of it. It's all slick, well polished and stylish high-budget presentation, but then the games come out and it's a half-baked POS. There's a reason the companies are so big nowadays - they used to have spark, that's what made them so popular. Now they just seem like hollow suits selling a product. Maybe that's just me...either way, I miss that feeling from back then...

this comment hasnt aged well

It really hasn’t

To remember Blizzard. R.I.P Blizzard

Cause actual WoW is dead.

Dunno man, me too.

This is youtube warning us that WoW Classic will progress into the Cataclysm Xpac by 2029

2020 lol

In 2017 they said they are already FIVE expansions ahead, So won't end anytime soon.

It practically prints money.. safe to say it won't end.

@Борис Христов It probably will. My guess is that they simply plan 5 expansions in advance and when those 5 expansions are done, they will have thought of another 5.

i came from the future, i have bad news....

It is over, and not in a good way

how do you know people were rushing to reserve that name? seems impossible to know

It was the start of the end in 2011 brah. Even back then there were posts on the forums that wow was dying. Great things don’t last forever. I’m just waiting for wrath classic to enjoy it one more time

Whaaat a feature that was scrapped and never put in? No way! But yeah I feel ya. :( Where is my Dance Studio from Wrath of the Lich King Blizzard!? IT'S ON THE BACK OF THE BOX AS A LISTED FEATURE!

Nagga would be cool and all but it would look stupid on mounts

@@Baba-sf1ck Worgen?

@@Baba-sf1ck u got it 👏🏼 mounts ruin the game

Cata was underated so hard. Hope they bring it to classic in 2024.

@@Invictvs1212 i hope no.

Goblins are way better race then furries

The game ended up being launched prematurely (play goblin starting zones, Azshara, and numerous other 'reworked zones') and suffer from rushed development. Also, the actual new high level content/end game content was a lot less than previous expansions. They probably should have opted to rework the old zones slowly and in sections as expansions progressed, but instead bit off wayyyy more than they could chew (overly ambitious project) and kinda screwed the pooch.

@@sythirius42 Interesting. This is probably the first criticism I've ever heard in regards to some kind of rushed development being the disdain for the expansion.

I remember getting all hyped up but after playing a couple months I realized they had changed so much & just not being into it

The huge drop in subscribers were mostly bots and changes in how the Chinese and Korean payment system works. They lost a ton of players that way.

Blizzard spread their resources too thin with the old world rework, leaving much of the Content in the Expansion severly undercooked. Depsite this, early Cataclysm was amazing, it was the first iteration of LFR and Dragon Soul that fucked it all up.

mine too

"Deathwing returns!" - Everyone is so exciting that even one of them literally just explode xD

Now: Pathfinder Player: Yikes

Someone just Explode because of how Exciting this was lol

Yaaa man.. cata and wotlk are the best

@@johncostik6286 WOT-LOOKA HYPE WOT-LOOKA HYPE

This is how warcraft dies... With thunderous applause

I thought it was fun, but there was definitely not enough to do outside of the raids and leveling characters. Blizzard themselves admitted that the massive undertaking to overhaul all the Eastern Kingdom and Kalimdor zones took resources away from developing new content for that game.

Really? I've only ever had 1 max level character and I was always doing stuff.

yeah, WoD was byfar the worst expansion

Been playing since vanilla, and can say, Cata ain't a scapegoat, it really did suck. Blizz bit off more than they could chew and failed to deliver a polished finished product. Just go back and play through the goblin starting zones, Azshara quests, etc. and you'll see how many bugs and janky shit was left in the game simply because they ran out of time. Glad classic servers are finally going to be an official thing, because I miss the pre-Cata quests and zones so much. Cata was such a fucking mess.

It's the truth though, that after Cataclysm, World of Warcraft went downhill.

I was

I was

"hurr cata sux guys" - every Wrath babby ever, not realizing Wotlk was the demise of WoW.

TwizzElishus I'm talking about quality of the game, not the sub numbers you imbecile.

TwizzElishus You mean Call of the Babbysade? Oh yeah, welfare epics for everyone. I'm not even gonna defend Cata's endgame raid, but ICC's difficulty was a fucking joke. Talk about casualizing.

Someone smells like he pooped his pants in anger. Are you trying to get noticed on /v/ or why are you throwing around those random buzz words now?

TwizzElishus I guess I won the argument then. Really not that hard to win against a wrath-babby tho.

What do you mean? The zone was never fixed....

I remember seeing this announcement thinking to myself "oh no, they're making the old world worse by destroying it". I was right too.

what? Cataclysm was bad. I mean I understand you was young back then and had a lot of fun, nostalgia now etc. You can't understand this - it's a bit different when you are 16-19 yo teen playing video games with your school friends compared to you 25/30+ yo grown man with a family, job playing video games. Man Cataclysm was a disaster xD I mean people were so fuckin happy about flying back then. About fckin flying. You get it? You can hear it on trailer - they exploded when they heared they can fly xD

@@pr3287 lol what? how old are you? most people say MoP was the last good xpac. most people liked cata and ofc they cheered for flying in azeroth they been wanting it sense TBC...

BossMadOne too dumb? Well, that was necessarily mean. I think Cataclysm was a huge let down in terms of PVE, I was PvP focused that expansion and it was alright but I think the PVE was lifeless.

BossMadOne Bad expansion, be mad, Cata baby

Gabe4D Bad PVE? I'm sorry but Cataclysm had the most advanced and perfect questing system, and the hardest raids and dungeons until Rise of the Zandalari patch. I'm sorry but do you remember in the beginning of 4.1 patch that everyone was crying that the dungeons were hard? Blame the terrible community for that. For me every expansion is better than the previous. Thus, Mists of Pandaria is better than Cataclysm, Warlords of Draenor will beb etter than Mists. Cataclysm was better than Wrath, Wrath was better than the Crusade. Those who can't see it, are blinded by nostalgia

TheHunterDemon I'm sorry but that is heavily opinionated. I will not sit here and say that vanilla WoW was incredible. Sure, thinking back on it there are nostalgic feelings but it was a huge grind and I generally didn't play that much during vanilla, especially after hitting 60. BC was my favorite, I felt that it had a nice amount of grind but was a good improvement from the nonsense in vanilla WoW. Wrath was also good, the questing primarily was enjoyable which was a change for me. Wrath introduced the dungeon finder which was a change but it wasn't the end of the world, I PVE'd more in that expansion than any other. The first few months of Cataclysm were great, I do remember heroics. I was tanking them with my guild once we all hit level 85 as a Blood DK (which had become my main in Wrath). I took a long break and came back in the last patch of Cata and frankly it was a complete disaster with raid finder and all the new things implemented. Hell, if you remember, even Wrath introduced the "quest helper replacement" as some called it which just told you where to go and made questing doable with a blindfold on. Mists of Pandaria had the most linear questing every made. You can argue that you liked it the most, and that is an opinion, just as it is my opinion that Mists had boring questing. However, you CANNOT deny that it was linear and had many trash quests you could not avoid. If you did all the quests in Jade Forest you would be level 87, well on your way to 88. What happened to finishing zones and not feeling like you could have left a long time ago. I want to experience all the lore without wasting my time doing 20k exp quests when I could be 2 zones in getting 30-40k exp quests. I have high hopes for WoD.

Gabe4D The pattern of the quest is always the same on the areas. I don't know how you find it boring since it's the same pattern on every expansion. I'm talking technology here. I'm talking lore. I'm talking exploration. And Mists provided ALL of those. And no, it's not my opinion. Mists had OBJECTIVELY the best questing system. It's maybe the only thing that the "haters" liked in this expansion.
