I still have my original box set like this except I have the 5 disc version. I remember it was an all night ordeal to install the game back in the early 2000s with my computer only have .512 memory and dsl internet and all the patch updates. But once installed I was in love with the game. Great video Erudwen per usual, brought back some good memories.

I remember starting the patch updates before school, and sometimes would come back to a cancelled download because the dial up disconnected at some point during the day. Whole thing sometimes took 6-8 hours. Now I get annoyed if an update is longer than 5 minutes haha

I had the original vanilla collectors edition but I binned it recently (it got water damaged from a leak) the art book was still good though.. I actually beta tested WoW back in the day

My favorite part of the original game art was that the dwarf battling the yeti inside the front cover is using Teebu's Blazing Longsword, one of the most sought-after items in the entire game.

Wow that brings back memories. I remember running to the store picking this up, and after waiting for hours for it to update, spent an entire week playing this.

Man, this is a real blast from the past. As a solo player, I couldn't quite get the full enjoyment out the game but I just kept coming back to read the box/booklet over and over again. Occasionally played with a friend who I haven't seen in well over a decade now and we tried to go through the deadmines with just the two of us, only to fail miserably everytime.. So many great memories! Just resubbed again a few days ago actually. Started up a new character and have been chipping away at the timewalk campaign for Lich King.. Playing more dungeons and might even try a raid for first time! Missed so much lore and I think it's time I finally get stuck in!

I remember when I went from Warcraft III to WoW and opening the box for the first time and seeing the opening sequence of the game!! Those were exciting times!! 😁 Thank you for this wonderful video! Very nostalgic😌

Deep and soft tones rock my earphones 👍

I used to have a shirt that said, “I survived The Barrens chat” 😂

Crossroads on a pvp server ahh the days

I have a pet theory that part of the reason wow blew up like it did is because it came out when the first wave of serious gamers that grew up with gaming were reaching college age / early adulthood thus finding themselves with little adult supervision and a game to spend an irresponsible amount of time on. Just the right game and the right time.

This was the first video I’ve watched of yours and man I am officially a fan now. Such a soothing voice

Congrats on 12K! ☺️ Love the fact that you’re decorating your place for the holidays. I LOVE your table cloth

Thank you so very much 🥰! I hope you are doing well now during December!

Love these videos, even though I don't really care about WoW. It's the passion and, of course, the voice that keeps me coming back. I would love longer soft spoken videos in Swedish, too, but I understand that they don't get as many views, which is a shame. It's such a lovely language, even though I can only understand the few words that are similar to English. Have a great Sunday Erudwen!

Love the traditional Christmas decor!

Du ger mig gåshud 🥺 Så härligt och mysigt. Minns när jag började spela runt tio-elva år. En helt annan värld känns detta nästan som nu. Allt kändes så simpelt, ingen tävling, kändes som ett äventyr som aldrig tog slut på ett speciellt sett. Inget spel var som WoW när det kom ut. Ligger och små kikar medans jag försöker sova men vill bara kollar vidare. Tack för denna video du förgyller verkligen mina kvällar och nätter 🙏🫶 God jul! 🎄

your demeanour is so relaxing!

I also don’t no much about WOW however this amazing voice keeps me in place. My favorite new ASMR channel.

oh its the dvd version.. I got the Old CD boks... Love it really miss these physical versions.. I think the last one is Legion

New to the channel! Subscribed! This is amazing. Love your videos and how peaceful and relaxing they are. Keep it up❤ I actually have the CD version which I keep closed lol

I still remember the night where I first played this game in 2004. I had an Undead Warlock and went to Tirisfal the first time. I looked at the night sky in the game and it was all green, like tainted and I was like "wowwwwwww the sky is so green and corrupted!"

I used to watch my dad play this game all the time back in 2006ish, I remember staying up late just to watch him hit level 60. Good times

The box artwork, I used to see it everywhere in stores as a child. I know all about stealing the fun stuff from my older sibling too. I have a white lego horse, a mini Tepig figure and a Card Capture Sakura book of cards (I gave him my book of them but I don't know what happened to it) so I think I either have mine back or his. I have found the end of the year to be hellishly stressful the past couple of years due to people just...not being the best to me and my health. Never realized how badly that effected me until this year. Though I do enjoy Christmas a lot. I have my own tree this year and I bought decorations for it. I always wanted that. I love the table cloth you had for the background. It's nostalgic and beautiful. I really do hope Christmas is good. I remember saying something about hopefully you get more Moomin last time. Take care as always dear. And thank you for the video. 😄

Thank you for sharing your wonderful experiences and memories from your past, I sincerely hope your health issues are stabilizing or getting better! I have this wonderful Christmas tradition at home.. every year I try to find a new Christmas tree ornament in the shape of a dog 🎄 There are quite a few doggos in the tree now, I can really recommend that if you have a certain thing that brings you a lot of joy! Makes every year you put up your tree a bit more special 🎁 I wish you a good Christmas as well, stay safe and try to find peace during this stressful month ❤️

@@ErudwenASMR Extremely late reply, but the doggo ornament tradition is such a beautiful idea! Again, so late in saying this: Merry Christmas!! 🎄 I understand too on how you try your best to reply to the comments like you mentioned in the video today, don't stress out if you can't. It'll be great this year when you add a new dog ornament to memorialize the growth of your new journey in life! I'm not sure if you've done a collection video on your ornaments for your tree, but if you haven't yet, please, that would be wonderful to see! 😮 ♥️☺️ May 12, 2024

In 2005 I was 13 and I started saving/spending my own money and was fresh in High School I remember being so excited after purchasing this game just to find out my computer was too slow to run the game 😂😂

Did You play Vanilla back in a day?

I had the box with 4cd's (i think it was 4, but am not 100) sadly i gave it to one of my college mates, so he could install it and never got it back.. cdkeys were activated, so not like i lost much.. but still, would like to have them back

if you miss it so much join us on classic servers

Please don’t tap. Many asmr artist force tap tap tap on everything, and it’s overdone. If it’s natural, okay, but having to tap on every single thing just grates me. Your voice is lovely! You don’t need tapping! I realise I’m not speaking for everyone else, but I really cannot stand it. 🌸
