How I Learned to Love Retail World of Warcraft from wisepowder's blog

While I wasn’t as vocal as some parts of the World of Warcraft community in the Retail WoW vs. WoW Classic debate, I definitely had my opinion: I was on Team Classic. World of Warcraft Classic felt more like the MMO I loved; there was a sense of community, a world to explore, and narratives that made sense — and I could participate in all of this at my own leisure.To get more news about safe wow gold, you can visit lootwowgold official website.
Maybe sometimes I wanted to knock out dungeons with friends. Other nights were raid nights. Sometimes there was PvP on the calendar. Or maybe I wanted to solely focus on gold-making and attempt to reach the game’s gold cap (I never did, sadly).

Regardless of what I wanted to do, I had the ability to pick and choose. I wasn’t forced to take part in various systems that were foisted upon me by the game. Sure, I was missing out on content in Burning Crusade, but that was mostly due to my own personal responsibilities and the fact that the guilds I’m in are smaller and far more casual.

Over time, however, World of Warcraft evolved into a game I no longer recognized. I really felt the burnout during the Firelands raid in Cataclysm. Don’t get me wrong, Firelands is great, but man, that shade of red got really old really fast. I quit, cold turkey, the day Dragon Soul, the expansion’s final raid, released.

I had a cup of coffee with Mists of Pandaria, and I explored the first tier of raids in Warlords of Draenor, but something felt off. Between Garrisons, daily dungeons via the Looking For Group tool, the disconnect between myself and what seemed like a disconnected world, and myriad other things, World of Warcraft just wasn’t the same game it once was.

The release of World of Warcraft Classic brought me back into the franchise, and I was in love all over again. I wanted to explore, adventure, and experience everything Azeroth had to offer with old friends and new.
