This is what World of Warcraft looked like in 1999

"More like an MMO just single-player" Thats two very completely different things. You mean like an RPG instead of an RTS?

Vanilla != Classic

Whoa.. 4 years later. Thanks algorithm...

I miss everything about that wow

initial release of WoW was hard as shit, wtf are you talking about. You had to group up to do the final lvl 5 quest, just to get out of the abby.

Looks better than dragonflight

Imagine bullying a guy for a speech impediment on the internet in 2023. Coward p.o.s

Take a shot every time he says “world of Warcraft” :)

I sincerely miss that feeling I got that first year in 2005 when playing WoW for the first time. They're only memories now. Great memories.

I wish there was a name for MMOs that were single player…

the world of warcaft, is the best game ever

Looked like the sims lmao

wocrofd

Gnomes had no place and they really should've properly put Blood Elves in the Alliance. I mean damn, "Humans" in Warcraft 3 consisted of Dwarves, Humans and Elves. "Orcs" were Tauren, Trolls and Orcs. They could've had some real fun making it, 3-4 factions with NE and Undead. Ogres and Goblins always had potential too.

They made some silly Decisions with WoW, they could and would only have made by making a MMORPG, not Warcraft 4, but overall what they managed originally was one of the greatest foundations for an MMO world.

No!They screwed up Warcraft III: Reforged...

Oh would you look at that, a panda in WC3… looks like MoP wasn’t based on Kung Foo Panda after all…

Whoacwaft

At least they spent 5 years perfecting it, these days they would have released it immediately with bugs and all and wonder why people don't like it.

Ahh good ol day . Really good memories i first play at 2006 until 2013 @hellscream and steamwheedle

SkWeenshot???

wow thats incredible :)

you say wocwaft

So originally our characters were just glorified hunter pets with their training points, got it.

I remember a preview site from blizzard for WoW. After growing up playing Warcraft 1/2/3 it looked amazing. I remember an orc with a lookout tower in the background.

Hasnt changed much tbh. Looks almost the same

skweeenshot?

I only played from end of BC to end of WOTLK, but I have good memories of playing.

The Rexar campaign was absolutely amazing. 🔥

whoa cwaft

Looks like the dragon Isle did make it into the game haha

Brings back memories when I use to play this on my eMachine.

wowld of wawcwaft wawcwaft fwee

It's amazing how many times you said "World of Warcraft", love your way of pronouncing it <3

Dammm I dkin knew it was a mod of Warcraft 3. Like Dota and others :)

Those Warcraft 3 custom maps that tried to be an early version of WoW were awesome. Many fond memories.

1h sword idle was better lol

I remember watching my Uncles play WoW, it was....... wow.....

They made WoW more casual than the super hardcore mmos of the days, which is cool and was a smart move... but they kept making it more and more and more and more casual... which sucked.

"wow is a casual style game" lmfao

I remember my first class was hunter and I leveled up my two handed blade super high and I spent Soo long to get the gold for ghost blade I think 50 g it was, maybe Abit more. I was lvl 35 when the first expansion came out, I was in lock modan and had this white tiger as a pet at the time nobody knew how to get it.

So much from vanilla they should have kept ugh, I gotta move on lol

Just copied ultima online’s success

Never played wow. Should I start with classic or vanilla wow???

16years later, we are still waiting the real "next WOW" but I guess it wont come anymore.

Take a shot every time he says "voldovocraft"😂

I didnt realize that this video was from before classic launch until the very end where mentioned classic coming out soon. In hindsight, it was probably the last great thing that blizz will ever do, and it was great.

ahh yes
it's funny cause of all these things from the beta and alpha
the trees still look just as bad in classic xD
