    Me, a 34 year old dude. Trying to spend my time wisely and checking out "Should You Start Playing WoW in 2024?" videos

    It's important to note WoW is starting to cater more to solo players. In the next patch, you can run Dragonflight dungeons by yourself with npc companions. In the next expansion, there is "endgame" content with Delves which can be ran with 1-5 players and an npc companion to tag along.

    Crazy to think you're about to hit 1 Million subscribers! I've been watching since your first zergling rush video, and you've definitely always been one of my inspirations in content creation. I've been coming back to WoW too recently and have been having a ton of fun with it! Fun to see that we're interested in the same games once again. Can't wait for all the new things WoW has around the corner.

    Im a brand new player and have been having a great time. People are friendly, made a couple friends and people who took time to genuinely teach me things about the game. Been a lot of fun just exploring and slowly but surely learning the game.

    I just made a druid lvl 30 now and im having a blast taking my time rediscovering the world after 10 years, can't wait fto get to the raids.

    I'm enjoying WoW more now than I have since Legion. I still think they need to open every instance up to every player (especially while leveling) but the game is in great shape over all.
  • Just a correction. Evoker has 3 Specs. Healer, DPS and the first ever true Support spec "Augmentation"

    if you die in hardcore you don't loose your character if you want to continue on your character you can move that character to normal classic realms

    These discoveries remind of Star Wars Galaxies - and how each class had a different unknown random series of events/achievements which would unlock the jedi-sub class for their character.
  • @Frindleeguy
    The bit about people jumping in to help was my favorite part. Thats pretty cool.
  • @thejanitor3337
    To hear you dismiss the story of WoW through Wrath of the Lich King - a literal genre-defining storyline that made this franchise timeless during an era where it existed amongst a sea of strong competition - really encapsulates a lot about what I hate so much about modern MMOs and its players.
  • @Tewlipz
    Having never played WoW, or really cared for it, I've been ever more curious about it since Dragonflight, which is fun to think about.

    The talent system is.. phenomenal. I am constantly tweaking and theory crafting. Yes, you can easily just copy/paste the "best" specs from Icyveins, but so much more fun to actually learn your talents and class and tweak the heck out of them. I have specs saved for Solo, Group, PvP, Raid, Dungeon, Mythic, AoE, Single Target... such a greatly improved system. Paladin is also amazing right now. All specs feel and look good! Holy is the most fun it's been in years.

    Goodness. If I was still in the same place I was back then, I would love to play that discoveries one. Unfortunately, I just got too addicted to it. Instead, I do different hobbies now. Glad to see Force is still doing videos.
  • @Boulbouljan
    I just bought the expansion for Black Friday sale, game is more fun then ever, I’m having a great time
  • I never played wow (I always wanted to) until this month even with the graphics and combat (imo kinda boring) I can feel the charm of the game and why it has been successful for so long...retail feels more straight forward and linear, leveling is faster while wotlk classic is way more grindy and slower paced but more impactful and meaningful, theres a feel of a huge knowledge wall that probably makes the game way more interesting and with more content than just leveling but probably not entirely needed to enjoy and progress...btw i was playing it solo so with friends or in parties both games are probably more enjoyable I wish I could played this game while it was at its peak though

    It is sad that you don't know wow's older lore it actually used to be some of the deepest game lore in recent history, only things I know of that are any where near as lore rich are table top games like 40k and DnD. Final Fantasy probably also would get a vote from me too, it is a 30+ year old series. There are a few historians on wow that go from begining to end. For me why I was killing the boss was as important and actually doing it, made you feel more invested and part of it all. I still like that feeling though knowing the bosses crimes or story. Like Illidan for example was imprisoned for war crimes he committed against his people during the war with the Burning Legion (he was a night elf at one point) and for creating a fount of power (the demon hunter by infusing those of elven blood with the blood of demons). For those crimes he was hunted down along with his army and put on trial by the Night Elf Wardens and sentencted to eternal imprisionment (along with his followers). This prision sentence was commuted in Legion when the Burning Legion attacked in full force. That info minus the legion stuff really made killing Illidan important, also Illidan was one of my favorite "villains" because he isn't all bad, and becomes the hero again. Anyway I do hope one day when you are bored and have down time you look at some of the older lore.
