I was 20 at the time, i was working at a grocery store unloading trucks while going to college. Stopped at the GameStop just over the hill, saw the original WoW. That thick box containing the books and like 5 CD roms. Went home, downloaded it for a long time. As soon as it was done, my world was changed forever. Talking to the community. All the newbies and I helping each other, friending each other, talking about how awesome the game is. Making ridiculous jokes about everything under the sun while getting killed by Hogger. Life was simple. Fuck politics, social media, and smart phones. None of it mattered. Glad i got classic and am now reliving those times again and damn does it feel good.

There I was, a young 14 year old lad on his birthday in 2005, my mum finally lets me have a subscription and buy wow after months of hounding her. I install and download the patch, and there it is, the fantastic opening screen. I hastily log in, and create my first character: Solos, the human paladin! What came after is indescribable, an endless adventure with friends old and new, some of which I will never forget. Running into the dead mines and feeling the creepy music and dastardly defias, or maybe the first time I stepped foot into the Scarlet Monastery, all of these moments and memories, firmly locked into the vault of mind, and I will always cherish them. But for all those wonderous memories, the one that shines the brightest, is walking down from Northshire for the first time, looking out into the forest, listening to this music, and taking my first real steps into the World of Warcraft. Have a lovely day everybody.

I was 14 years old too with a human paladin when WoW came out. First year of WoW is probably the best memories I have, and I have a pretty good life. It was like something else. The feeling of exploration in a world that I loved already from Warcraft 3. Fighting with creatures as an avatar of myself, finding unique loot, meeting with people that I talk with on a regular basis to this date. It was challenging, it was rewarding, it forced you to team up with others. As much as I hate the new Actiblizzard now, I'm ethernally thankful to the real Blizzard for making the biggest masterpiece ever that is World of Warcraft.

Heartbreaking. It's hard to explain that feeling. October of 2005, for me. I was 29. I grew up with Ataris and Nintendos, PCs and PlayStations. It was like the final culmination of everything we'd ever been promised. I only stopped playing a couple of months ago. What a ride, what an incredible addition to the human experience! I don't know whether I cried or shit myself when I entered the gates of Stormwind for the first time and the music changed, the drums crashing in my headphones. We remember every note, we heard these songs for weeks or months at a time. I entered that world a cheerful, goofy, big mouthed human paladin, and left it a cynical, tired, angry, silent Nelf rogue. But the music remains, and still pulls on my heart.

I wouldn't say never, just look at what Star Citizen has been able to do. If you've never seen that game before then your mind will be blown away, and I'm not throwing that word around. If you have seen that game before then you also probably know the reason why it looks that good yet has such a small community. Just imagine what a proper game studio would be able to create if Roberts Space Industries is able to create something as mind blowing as Star Citizen? I think within the next 12 years we might actually see a massive mmo like WoW yet again that gets everybody on board. In VR. Just look at Apple's VR headset, within the next 12 years there's going to be headsets that make that one look like a dumb phone in comparison which is affordable to everybody. I also just wanted to make it clear I don't think Apple's headset is the holy grail, but there's nothing on the market like it. It uses 12(?) cameras inside the frame which monitors your eye movement, you just look at what ever you want to click on and the screen focuses on it. That's next level intuitive, then imagine combining something much better than that with a massive mmorpg world, oh man...

@@casual_citizen This is so true, we've only scratched the surface of what video games can do. But it takes so long for this potential to be unlocked; people keep creating the same games over and over instead of exploring what can be accomplished (Star Citizen is a good exception to this as you mention). A good example is the RTS/FPS hybrid genre which has huge potential but only Natural Selection which was released 20 years ago ever realized some of it. And for VR games people seem to agree only Half-Life: Alyx is the only must-buy title. And, of course, no MMO has matched WoW still after all these years. But, every now and then we get a diamond in the rough that give a small hint of the possibilities. (Imagine if Outer Wilds had a $300 million dollar budget)

Going through my first big heart break. My high school sweetie left me, I was a 21 year old small town boy, living in a big city, and I was familiar with warcraft, via Warcraft 2 and warcraft 3. I remember having just a couple bucks left, and I went to an EB games store, and asked if they had any more copies of WoW. The dude said I got lucky, said someone just returned a copy because they didn't like it, and I bought the last one. I did the grueling install process, patched it up, and fired it up. I remember making a paladin instantly, because I liked Arthas and the Paladin class in WC3. Soon as the music starts, I'm totally captivated by the art style, music, and totally stoked I get to play a Paladin. After a couple of hours of getting a feel for the game and learning how to chat/interact, I meet a priest. One of my first people I meet in-game, little did I know we'd get to know each other very well, and he invited me to their guild. Through this guild, many friendships were made that still exist today. While playing this game, interacting with new friends, learning spells and feeling like my Paladin was becoming even more powerful, it helped me cope and forget about my big heartbreak for awhile. Wow has really helped me through some tough times, and that was the catalyst of why WoW would mean so much to me. I don't play it like I used to, but damn, I'll never forget the moment this music kicked in, and a brand new, fresh noob Paladin was born.

Makes me want to log in and just wander around Elwynn Forest and try to recapture how amazing it was when I first played almost 15 years ago. Exploring and checking out every building in Stormwind. Remembering how terrifying Duskwood was when I ran their to find Mayor Ebonlocke to get help for Lakeshire. Funny thing was I would never have known about it except some kids were selling magazine subscriptions to raise money, I bought Maxim and in the first issue was an introduction disc to wow. I played the 20 levels with three different characters before I admitted I was hooked. Tried a decent number of games since then, but nothing captured my imagination like WoW. Unfortunately for me "progress" didn't mean better. Quit eight years ago.

Lol remember making human rogue when game just started. Didn’t know there was AH till level 25, trash vendored everything. Had leather pants with +5 to healing thinking it’s helping me heal faster. Will never forget the awe inspired by first time stepping trough gates of Stormwind and that epic music kicking in. Or the time I encountered horde for first time and pvp... I was in Westfall and I saw this strange cow looking thing named Willford with some kind of orb around its body and shiny golden shield, so I decided to stab it in the back, surprisingly nothing happened. Willford stood up looked down and emoted: No not gonna happen! And then sent me to my first death.

On wow, my first interaction surprised me, I discovered that it was even more sociable than our real world! Then a little later, I created a human character and I played with groups, one day, I see a player with a demon who follows him (a walker vacuum). So I was amazed and amazed, I wanted the same! And I asked the question, "How did you do to get what follows you everywhere?" And that's where I fell on the dark side. I created a warlock just to have the demon ... (PS: I use the google translator, sorry for the mistakes).

15 years later and this still gives me chills. god DAMN that was a good game

its not that was its that is good game even know world of warcraft is best game ever

So long ago. I was a different person and WoW was a different game. It was a match made in heaven, but now it feels like a memory from another life.

i was almost 18 in 2005 when i started playing wow, this music reminds me of the good times and gameplay of yesteryear, where society was very different in video games.

42 male human warrior main alliance here. Played mainly during end of BC and through WotLK. Wow was an amazing adventure for me and many friends both in game, guild and RL. It truly was another world/life, and to finally down LK... amazing.

I am 32 and played WoW all throughout high school and a few years after. I occasionally go back to WoW every so often for like 3 days just to relive it, but it's not the same.

It’s never quite the same, but it’s fun to never truly say goodbye and pop in every now and again.

I spent a lot of time on this game, always feeling guilty that it was time wasted and I was missing out on real life. Now I look back and those were the best moments of 2004-2008 for me, and it was real life that was truly crap (at the time).

18 years ago my classmate gave me some money to buy my first wow game box. Things were better that days, internet was better, people were interested to explore. Still playing classic from time to time.

I am 35 and started in vanilla, I quited 3 years ago and started playing again since 6 months. Everything overwhelmed me and made me feel like I am in a differend time back again. I realy missed it. Im glad I started again. Besides work and all the must and don'ts this game is relieving me from hatred and this sick world.

For the Alliance and for the Seven Kingdoms! May Stormwind, Gilneas, Lordaeron, Stromgarde, Dalaran, Alterac and Kul Tiras stand forevermore reunited once again! :)

Oh wow ! How I miss playing my elf Hunter. My sister was playing it in England. And she called me and told me you gotta get this game. So I did. When I first came on my sister was Petra. She came running up on a cat. She waved to me.. and blew me a kiss. And I was so blowed away !! We played for many years. And we met so many wonderful friends! This game is brillant. This video is making me want to play again.

I'll never forget the emotion I had fifteen years ago when I killed my first kobold near the Northshire abbey. May he rest in peace. 🙏 Thanks for this video, so many amazing memories.

10 years and 360 days of played, that was it for me between 2004-2014 in the World of Warcraft. For the whole time the same guild and same friends, unforgettable moments and great adventures. The feeling of being part of something great, a community larger than the guild itself. It was another life inside a game.

A moment of silence for all the new players joining WoW since 2020 who now get forced into Exile's Reach and BFA content instead of experiencing the iconic starting zones of Azeroth

2005 memories come flooding back, fuuuuuck. Simpler times man.

I was still in China when I first started this game. I was in university and it was THE game of my dorm. Back then everyone was playing War3 before moving on to Wow. The rich culture of this game series is simply fascinating. I picked a NE rogue because I thought a rogue was more like the Blade Master in War3, which was the solo king in 3C and NE was my favorite race. We were total noobs and the Deadmine was once the impossible dungeon. LOL. And later on I moved to Canada for studies. When I first came here, I was lonely and my English wasn’t at its best. So I started playing Wow on the NA server in 2007. Again, a rogue, human. Back then people were so nice and genuine. I still remember I was questing with two strangers in STV, the chain quest where you need to use gorilla hearts for a ritual of some sort in a cave. We were all above level 40 and I was the only one without a mount. On seeing that, one guy gave me 20g and the other gave me 10g saying “sorry I don’t have that much at the moment.” I was like “what do you mean sorry” in my heart. I don’t know who they are but I remember them, a NE warrior and a Draenei Pally. That was how people were like back then, in the game, and maybe outside of the game too, I really miss that.

Although I never had the chance to experience vanilla, it seems so nostalgic, and I tip my hat to all of you vanilla players. I will always respect the ‘good ole days’, but I’m pretty satisfied with what we have now. Congrats to those who’ve been from vanilla to now, I look up to you guys.

The beginning....whenever I'm in Elwynn Forest....with this music...it just seems so peaceful...tranquil...

An entire decades worth of memories all started one day at my friends house when he asked me to kill kobolds by the mine. I remember the ambiance better than the experience, this will always be comforting to me,

So many memories… Imagine that - memories of a simulated world. Blizzard did something right, something amazing, that will go down in the annals of history. And I couldn’t be happier being a part of it.

the nights i used to spend on this game... splendid memories of my life :)

Rolling Hardcore Human Warrior and reliving this nostalgia = unmatched

Your comment reminds me of a rogue I used to know. He was a human rogue named pokepoke. He always typed with periods instead of spaces between words because his spacebar broke. He.literally.typed.like.this. He said he was a medic in the army. This was in 2004, early 2005. I literally only knew the guy for 2 days and never talked to him again. Like anyone else I've chatted with. But somehow, I was so moved from the game when it first started that I actually remember that person. Your comment brought it back to me. I also remember a rogue who had some sort of a skeleton costume on. It was way before the Halloween events. I believe it was the Noggenfegger elixir? I don't recall the exact spelling. But everoyne was so amazed by it that everyone was asking how he got it.

I'm almost 60 and I still love playing WoW. I'll stop when Bliz stops putting out expansions. 😜

You’ll never recapture the magic of being lost in Northshire Valley, of finding a battered chest and thinking you won the lottery. Of having no idea where you are or where you’ll go next until now. Now when you never get lost and ignore chests because you know everything that could be in it, you have all the quests memorized and know where they’ll take you. But sometimes, you’ll catch that glimmer of nostalgia.

What a magical time it was, my friends. Maybe one day we will meet again in another mmo

After 19 years now i miss those old times ... this game did come out at the same time i was Born in 2004 i am playing it since 2009 (yes young) my father Made me play it and Im really missing when i was playing and not knowing what i did killing Some mobs exploring the whole game without having the lvl for it this game is Legendary and will be in my heart forever...

So, I have this idea for a great movie. It's about two gnomes who find a bracelet of power, and they have to take it to the Burning Steppes and cast it into the Cauldron. They form the Brotherhood of the Bracelet. Along the way they're trailed by a murloc named Gottom, who's obsessed with the bracelet, and nine bracelet bogeymen. It could be a three-parter, called 'Ruler of the Bracelet'. The first part would be called 'The Brotherhood of the Bracelet', followed by 'A Couple of Towers', with the climactic ending called 'Hey, the King's Back!

This is one of the best jokes in the game. Thanks for reminding me of it.

this music makes me want to melt into a little puddle of happiness and then just explore every square inch of Elwyn Forest (even though I already know it like the back of my hand).

those memories bring tears to my eyes

There is a certain type of person that this game created. Special, unique, and one in a million. I have no idea how, but for those who played this games, and I mean actually played this game.... their is a brotherhood, a creed, a certain way that this game impacted us that left us all the same way. To this day, if I could live in any world, it would be this one.

I remember my summer job, I worked right next to a castle, serving customers at a bow/crossbow shooting range. I was staying in a room about half an hour walk away, so I always listened to WoW music when walking there and back. One morning I was near the castle, listening to the music as I walked, and just as the majestic castle gate came into my view, the Stormwind intro theme started playing. That hit beautifully.

It's 2005, you're in middle/high school. you decide to make a free-trial account for a new online game you heard about from your friends or in Gaming magazines. The game, is World of Warcraft. There is no KZread, barely any social media, and flip phones are the main craze. You log in and decide to create a human for your very first character. Maybe you'll create an orc, a night elf, or even an undead later. But for now, it's the most familiar race to start. Then, it hits you. You see the size of the world, the other players, the music. You don't intend to, but you spend hours questing. Killing kolbolds, wolves, and defias. Then, before you know it, it's 6am and you have to get ready for school. You don't know it yet, but this is the best life is going to get.

This soundtrack inspires to me feelings of stillness and calmness that I cannot achieve easily in other ways. The memories of the time spent in that virtual forest are still strong after 15 years…

One of my favorite memories is questing around Elwynn at 14 years old in early 2007 as a noob. I was with two other dudes and I asked their ages. They were both like 40. I said my age and they did the laugh emote. It was when I realized WoW was for all. Nothing else mattered, other than your abilities and attitude in the game.

WOW was my Home for 3 yrs 07 to 10,I will never forget all that wonder and relationships . I started with night elf female hunter {im now a 65 yr old man} That hunter remained my main though i did level up alot of other 'range' toons and mastered every craft {made lots $$} in the end my elbow got pain from intense hours in raids along with several crazy guild dramas,so i quit , years later i returne to just play a hunter again free to lv 20 and to hear this music which I have always loved . I waited many years from the first game comm 64 pc I knew then one day the world would change online and it certainly did not dissappoint!!

I was a teenager then, but it was also my home from ‘07-‘09 initially. Incredible memories.

WoW ,didnt play WoW 10 years and i still remember this. Just show how great music in WoW was.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Defias thugs in the Northshire vineyards. I watched the stars glitter in the dark near the Westbrook Garrison. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

The memories I have of playing this game as a young adult are as valuable to me as those of the small town where I spent all my childhood summers. That powerful WoW was.

As a Horde main, I've never really had the Alliance atmosphere to have nostalgia with. The only times I'd here the music and explore the zones is during world PvP. Elwynn forest and Stormwind have always had great sounds and music. The closest we got to this style of music was Hilsbrad, which since Cata is just different. The old tracks are still there, just only in the non-plagued areas. There aren't much of those.
