The thing is, I have been back to Northrend a few times over the years with alts at various times as the game has gone on and I have never, ever stuck it out when I didn’t have to. ![]() I worry that WotLK was great in its time, both in the state of the genre when it came out and at the point in my life when I played it, but that it might not be all that when it comes to nostalgia. I don’t want to be down on the whole thing, I just am.īut I am also wary of going back to try and relive what might have been my peak time in the game. ![]() Sure, part of that is the Blizzard malaise, the discovery that the company is problematic on many levels along with a feeling of tiredness about the whole genre at the moment. And I was pretty excited for Burning Crusade Classic, wasn’t I? There were points between beta and launch that all I wanted was just to play WoW Classic. So I should be totally stoked for WotLK Classic, right? I was stoked for WoW Classic. Wintergrasp, the Argent Tournament, leveling up alts, crafting, grinding faction, running the instances, building the chopper, it was my peak effort in WoW. While there are lots of factors that play into that run, they all added up to me going all in on the expansion like no other before it. Still, it remains a stand out for me, the only expansion I played from the day it launched until the day the next expansion launched without a break. Not that it is the incorrect result, it is more a matter of my metrics being less than scientific. I have, at various points, attempted to rank WoW expansions via various dubious methods, and I always work it so that WotLK comes out on top. Also, WotKL Classic is supposed to be arriving this year, which might make it a standout from Dragonflight.
