Many people won't understand.

This game was there for me when nobody else was, just logging in, do some chores in game to distract myself, get happy at the little progress I made at the game because slowly but surely I was achieving my goals.

Just logging in at times and seeing someone in Gchat go "hey, how's it going x?" Or "just in time X I need someone to help me"

This game represents a safe space in my mind and house, just seeing images of the map and reliving memories in my mind is enough to change my mood.

Many people won't understand but I sure am happy for it

This but now when I revisit Classic it breaks my heart because I'm so depressed that I've come back hoping for that safeness, but my past community isn't there so the game feels empty compared to the past.

Play WoW Classic Hardcore!! I’m telling you, I felt the same way until I started Hardcore. It’s the absolute closest feeling to that original Vanilla WoW feeling. The community is amazing! Always groups happening and open world stuff going on. It’s amazing. Roll Alliance of Defias Pillager.

Maybe I'll give it a go, my problem is I get frustrated trying to do all the old stuff by myself because I have no one to play with and everyone i encounter on Whitemane is just powering through to get to endgame and so no one wants to group up :/

HC is the exact opposite. The vast majority are leveling because they can't stay alive long enough to reach the end game.

That's sounds like what i want, but I guess the thing stopping me is I know I'll probably make to 50 and die to a murloc evade bugging or something 😂

It’s a challenge that’s for sure, makes it a bit more exciting/adrenaline pumping at times.

Just started in defias pillager hc last week and I’m hooked. Such good vibes and community.
