I'm an old enthusiast of private servers , i'm playing on europe/french servers since 2008-2009 , and I have to say you pretty resumed well all the possibilites out there for players and made me discover at least 3 or 4 servers , even though i'm pretty active on blizzlike and fun/content changed realms. Just a little addition to the video , there somes private servers like warmane who got realms where you spawn at max level , and you can do endgame content for both PvE and PvP, for potential players who want to see test their class/spe at high level, who for those who don't really like leveling and are more driven for endgame content. Again nice work , your video is really well made and pretty good to let players know what private servers can offer :D

For more in depth explanation of what exactly Project Ascension is : Basically you can create any race and have the class "hero" when you level up you get talent points and ability points and get to choose between ANY TALENT AND ABILITY in the game. There is also a draft mode where you basically can't pick your abilities but instead have to choose between 3 abilities each time you can learn one. You have of course some ways to pick the good ones you absolutely need. They have 2 servers, one is TBC content (WOTLK core) and the other is Vanilla progressive and draft mode (xp rate is x3 or 4 in both but you can do a "challenge" that makes it x1, they also have other challenges to spice up your run with rewards when you reach last level) Adding to that there is a whole new enchant system that create builds, example : one enchant makes your cat form actually a serpent form with new abilities etc. So a lot of build variety and "classes" that don't exist in the base game. Of course you can actually just play a "normal" shadow priest if you want to build that. It takes a bit to get used to the system but the community is very nice and always explains everything and the game itself has its own guide quests to help you understand.

Very well explained. Plenty of people about but there are a lot of toxic players. I’ve been playing for a couple of days now and whenever I ask a question it’s either answered with sarcasm or ignored. Also tanks leave dungeons instantly during levelling if there are no exp buffs being given from the other players.

I would love an update of this. Ive played on Whitemane, Warmane, and Circle WoW now. Whitemane was fun but the community is just not there, stacks of lichbloom sell for 200ish gold, just to much of a grind for that 4500 gold artisan flying. Warmane just wasnt there, as many people have complained that they think they POP is faked and i believe it to be true. As for Circle, well its a bunch of russian speaking folk. Nothing wrong with it just no communication what so ever unfortunately, which ultimately got me here in just 2 weeks time. Any good private servers out there that are english dominant? (EDIT)= LOOKING FOR A WRATH OF THE LICH KING SERVER.

I have no new news about ReforgedCraft(Wrath, but there is only TBC quest content.) It's dev'd by one dude in Serbia, but it is in English. The idea of it is "Class+", you make a base class and can add spells and abilities from all other classes, except that overlapping spells and abilities cancel out. See my previous post, oddly I don't remember what the rates are except that profs are like 4X, which caused First Aid to glitch out(do not level FA). pop numbers are too low for raids. You're supposed to be able to solo the dungeon, maybe YOU can, I couldn't. Also RfC is custom. There's quest progression thing, but you don't have to follow it if you like a long game. Rfc - WARNING!!!! #1 the dev went political, #2 there's a custom boss past the room with the lava, that's shaped like a cross/X. That boss is a robot with a level 40 level boost book. Do not cast at all, especially heals. The mobs in the area will one-hit kill you, or just knock you through the wall into limbo. Sadly, the dev level-locked that dungeon. You can go in there any time before level 40. At least that's what the dev said. The kill reward will end up being mostly diablo-ized. or maybe not, as he keep changing what aint broken. Mounts are actually unnecessary as you can use the GM command "t" sans quotes to teleport, just about anywhere.

More diverse does not translate into being improved. For Project Ascension, draft idea seemed promising and exciting - the experience told a different story. Games such as Grim Dawn or Path of Exile offer that same "broad, diverse and complex" character building systems, which players adopt as "a glimpse of hope for a ton of potential theorycrafting". But once those ideas are implemented and put into work - they boil down to the same old boring, repetitive and predictable patterns of gameplay that initially made people quit, right? There must be some information missing, either the players are not being honest in their feedback or they are as self-aware and exploitable as lab rats are. 😁

Good video. Regarding Wall, I have known Wall since Darrowshire & have friends who have known him since Hyjal. From the very beginning it was a bad idea for WhiteKidney to have allowed Wall any role in the project. Wall is a script-kiddy programmer and has a history of pathological lying tagged on his back. He was dying from cancer? He was kidnapped by the government and forced to be a slave? The list goes on and on. Anyone telling you that Everlook is corrupt and that Wall is their hero has been swept up into the web of lies by the deceitful spider himself.

Everlook only has a high pop because it's the newest "fresh" experience. Almost all vanilla private servers hit a population crash after either a new vanilla server opens or AQ40 opens. I would say the best overall experience and true long lasting vanilla feel is Turtle WoW. There are always people leveling. The community is nice and open. There is tons of custom content with a new custom raid coming soon.
