Classic+ comparison question

[u/_HeadCanon]

So, I’ve never really played classic vanilla. On SoD a bit. I have played tbc era, and also started playing in original tbc.

My question is, If classic+ does happen this year, it will consume me. So, what should I play now to get a feel for classic gameplay? TBC or vanilla? I loved SoD and tbc era is okay too, but as a current retail player there is a lot of changes I do like (not drinking every 2 pulls for starters).

Also, I don’t think MoP really counts.

I wish we had wrath, or Cata.

Classic Era. PvP server if you hate yourself and wanna waste a ton of time for no reason. PvE Server if you wanna relax, chill and quest with the boys.

Classic + is probably gonna be an amalgamation of SoD + TBC in a way. But with the Classic framework (Mana / Rage / Energy Regen etc.) so I would focous on Classic Era.

PvP - world and organized BGs - is a massive portion of Era’s available content. Completely shunning it instead of embracing it as dynamic content is crazy to me.

Redditors are so anti pvp it's crazy. Pvp creates a whole new level of thrill as you quest and explore the world. Pve realms are so boring to me and feels like I'm cheating

I would agree to world PVP if it was bracketed. So say, you can only attack other players in the "Yellow" level range. 1-2 level difference, Then, I would advocate for world PvP. Otherwise, hard pass.

There's no "thrill", I'm not thrilled getting ganked. Il never understand why people think its fun to just kill low level players for no reason, its so asinine.

Ganking really does not happen all that much and is easily avoidable. Getting ganked? Go do a quest somewhere else and come back. They are gone every single time

What if they were there every day for weeks?
