Why can't I play as high elves in the Alliance?
Also, I am pretty sure night elves were their own seperate faction.

Paying a subscription to play a video game? Gay, I'll stick to Warcraft 3.

i still remember reading a forum post by a warrior who was complaining about how a paladin could use like 2-3 shields in a duel and heal himself and how it was too OP.
Warriors complaining about paladins beating them in duels or in world pvp was a constant in early wow.

Wow this shit is boring. I understand the social aspect but you must be a really pathetic loser to waste your life grinding boring tasks to get useless retarded items.

Game for no life losers
>>
>>748278674
When WoW came out it looked too goofy and cartoony to me. I always liked dark fantasy look and WoW characters looked like clowns with 6 different colors on their armor.
Avoided it like the plague for 3-4 years and finally tried it with my friend, and keept playing until 2012. I dont regret a single minute.
Dare I say that I had a...BLAST
>>
>>748278674
its alright but i really wish there was 6 different types of elves and all the creatures had disney eyes and looked softer and there where tons of pink and purple colors to dress up with and i could get everything solo and get the best gear in a couple of weeks
i wonder if this game will ever cater to me specifically one day
>>
>>748278674
Night Elves in the Alliance and Undead in the Horde makes no sense.
>>

You people just don't like video games

My parents won't let me sub with my own allowance, they say it's too much money. Guess I'll just watch seinfeld on directv and shrek on HBO after my tennis lessons at the country club and private piano lessons.
I'm still mad, I never asked for anything and the one time I did they said no with a bullshit excuse
>>
You gotta pay every month? What a rip off. I'm never plaything that. I'll just play WC3 instead.
>>
>>748278674
Why would anyone play horde? They are literally ghetto negroes, sudacas and american indios
>>
>>748279567
To be fair, for a lot of parents back in 2004, game subscription was a ridiculous and alien concept. Why should they pay for their kid wasting their time playing videogames?

Honestly it was probably for the better. By the time I got around to playing it is was at the tail end of wrath and was starting to give up around level 72 or something because it was BORING. I only finished leveling because cata streamlined shit. Maybe it would have been different with everyone else around but I thought BC sucked. Then I came back at the unfortunate time of shadowlands, and while I enjoyed the solo content, m+ and raiding was way too sweaty. I might give wow forever a try, never did classic because I was too busy at work at the time

I just wanted a single player Warcraft cRPG in vein of Baldur's Gate 2. I got this MMO shit instead. I don't have any friends, so I'm not interested.
I'll just create my own cRPG in the WC3 editor.

>>748278674
This game is really addicting. I should stop before I waste the next two decades of my life playing it.

I am not going to school tomorrow because I have an assignment due and my grades are incredibly low that I may have to repeat a year. But aside from that I just hit level 60 with my orc hunter! Yippee!

I remember playing the beta for the first time not knowing what to expect as I was a quake 3 esports fag at the time.

Unironically this is why WoW became so popular. It was the casual alternative to actual MMOs, so it always makes me laugh when zoomers call it "grindy."

It's awesome that you managed to keep it 21 years. I lost my old 4chan memes, screenshots, ROMs and mod collections when 2 HDDs died at the same time a few years ago.

And that view really is very aesthetic. Old Blizzard games (pre-WOTLK disneyfication) had unmatched atmosphere.

It's Turtle ran by chinese which was found out through sloppy coding who ddos any competition and there's like no players
>>
>>748282687
Why does it exist, though? I logged into Capycraft about a week ago and it was still going then. That is also run by the Chinese Turtle WoW team.

They wanted to become THE turtlewow server, capy was basically a beta. but then they slipped up and people found out they run capycraft as well (they were trying to hide it so not to seem like they are trying to grift by releasing a second server). on the first day of their beta launch octowow started getting hit with massive ddos from china, as well. just shady people trying to maximize profit, typical chinaman stuff
>>
WoW always seemed like the most retarded shit ever, why would I pay 15 bucks a month to play a game? I could rent a real video game for 4 bucks for a weekend and have a great experience 90% of the time.
>>
>>748282814

This was my reaction.

That's why we would buy timecards. They also didn't exist until Dec 2004 so I couldn't even play on launch. Remember being pretty upset.

>>748278674
Yeah that sounds pretty fun, but a monthly subscription? I'd rather wait for Warcraft IV.

I'm too stupid to understand what to do?!?! I PUT THE CD IN AND IT DOWNLOADED BUT I CAN'T PLAY! HOW DO I DO SUBSCRIPTION THING? I DIDN'T KNOW I NEEDED A SUBSCRIPTION! I THOUGHT I COULD JUST PLAY IT!

I remember getting mad because I really believed this as a kid. I complained to my dad that it wasn't working, and we ended up returning it. It wasn't until a few years later I learned that you had to PAY for a subscription to play the game. I wasn't a very smart child...

just accept turtle is dead and move on before you get scammed by chinamen or russians or whatever runs these fucking hydra servers

You could maintain a sub with a timecard, but if my memory serves there was no way to start up an account for the first time without providing credit card information.
Or maybe I was a retarded kid that couldn't figure it out at that age. I remember I ended up using my dad's cc info while he wasn't looking (and cancelling the recurring sub after so he never saw it).
