GoldenEye 3 Report post Posted December 17, 2016 I started Wow in college back in early 05. March to be exact. Played my first game on my roomates computer as a night elf warrior. It was love at first site for me. The game captivated me like few others before it. Unsubbed for the first time during WOD and haven't looked back. Disappointed, burnt out, too old, who knows? I got wind of this Nostalrius comeback and this Elysium project and something inside me got excited and just said go for it. I downloaded the client, extracted the files, made my account info, and everything went so smooth it's amazing how much of a breeze that was. Almost like it was a sign, like the voice of Terenas Menethil within the shattered entrance of Lordaeron: whispering to me, "yes, keep going, play my son, play again". I started up the game (even though the servers are down I just wanted to see if everything checked out), and bam! I got hit with over 10 years of memories and 10 year old memories. Thoughts and feeling rushing back to when I was living across the country going to school, living on my own, and spending too much time playing quite possibly the greatest game I had ever played, and too little time on my studies. Hearing that original log in music. Seeing all the original log in screens. I just laughed like a little school girl, giddy and euphoric. I swear it's the little things in life sometimes. Now being older and so far removed from the days of Classic Wow gaming, I'm actually really excited to rewind the clock and load up 04-06 all over again and see if reliving those days of gaming will be just as sweet this second time around. So, here I am, hello to those who have been here before, to those who are like me, and coming back to relive their glory days, and to those looking to create their glory days now. I'll be hanging around these parts from now on. See you in game, and on the forums! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I play retail at each expansion release still (just for a month, then cancel) but (excuse the pun) retail doesn't have the 'wow' factor! There was something, almost indescribable about vanilla that got me addicted back in the day. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CrazyNRG 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2016 First time playing on a private server my self as well, and I'm really looking forward to the community and server identity as a whole that the retail version has been sorely missing. I wonder tho, how playable it will be for my self playing from Australia? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
