Ideally you would have a mix of both. The quick short dungeons and the long ones. With all the best loot in the longer harder ones.
Omg how dare you! I want to put no time in and get all the best loot anyway! I don't have time to play the big dungeons but that doesn't matter, I want the best anyway!!

Well I'm an idiot - it should have been the first thing I considered before rolling a character on Whitemane. When FoH goes off to raid it's 11am here. Guess the nostalgia and the desire to guild up with some friendlies, put my left brain to sleep, lol.

Raiding just isn't going to be possible, and the more I think about it, playing Classic doesn't really make sense to me if I can't raid. Doubly a shame, because I was watching that last Rag&Onyxia video that @Sebudai posted, and listening to some of the chat afterwards - you guys sound like a chill bunch. Oh well, no harm done. Best of luck to you all.

When enough casuals / alts hit 60 we'll probably try and start up a casual weekend run. Was thinking saturday afternoon servertime. So level up anyway! it might be something that you could join in on.

I feel like this is a fairly good video. Some of the points he addresses are why I think EQ Next wanted to do away with leveling. He also addresses some of the problems that classic WoW find itself with in a few months (everyone max level, low level zones empty).

Good shit.


He has some good points but his biases come through at multiple points. Even the tone of his voice when he compares the 2 games easily gives it away (look at the parts around 25 minutes. High tone, happy voice = BFA, low tone, monotonous = Vanilla).

I think he misses the key difference and that's the pace of rewards. If you get something quickly like you do in BFA, it means less. The patience, the time needed, the "social dependence" aspect all lends itself to rewards actually meaning something. It was never about "difficulty".

Yeah, I'm on Herod and it's kinda annoying. I just don't understand why people enjoy watching this guy, or any streamer for that matter.

This one is place I feel like EQ was still better than WoW. All of EQ's old content was still pretty relevant and worth doing even when new expansions came out. It kind of added on to the game's content, rather than make everything else obsolete.
It's also not just the raid content, it's the tradeskills, the dungeons, many typical level cap things became completely dead content. Arcane Crystals? Garbage now. When you raise the level cap like WoW does, you basically need to completely redesign your entire former level cap game.

skipping over the obviously answered a million times part - the whole thing would be over in one minute if people had react the right way: giving him exactly zero attention. Instead their butthurt reactions make his stream for him. He has to do absolutely nothing but point a finger at his screen there. "Look at all these idiots!"

This is pretty much the only reason I tuned in for how mad people are at his simple presence

The video where he couldn't play because his inbox was full of guild drama from his 10 guilds of spergs and he had to go through it was hilarious.

I LOVED Burning Crusade, its raid content, its world design, the dailies. Everything about the place.
What? Get out. Get the hell out. I retract everything I could ever find good about you.

I liked that you could fly. And they were in one spot.

BFA has you fag all over the world.
Dailies were the start of the slippery slope. They're the first dose that lead you to having to spend years in rehab. They were the awakening of the Evil that Destroy the World.

(fuck those manta-ray flying mounts and nether drakes)
