This is Why People Love Season of Discovery so Much (Classic WoW)

Season of Discovery is here and it has taken the entire Classic WoW - no, the entire World of Warcraft - community by storm! Players are loving diving back into Azeroth yet again, finding runes, crates, and enjoying all the "endgame" content that Season of Discovery offers, in the form of the Blackfathom Depths Raid, Ashenvale World PvP, and more.

But why do people enjoy Season of Discovery so much? What makes this new game mode associated with Classic WoW so popular with the community? In this video, Nixxiom goes into why exactly he feels SoD has done so well, in that it recognized the spirit of Classic World of Warcraft and built on it, rather than trying to change it into something new.

YouTube has rolled out a new feature where Channel Members can now get early access to video uploads; something that people have been requesting for a LONG time. So in the future we're going to be doing this for ALL videos!

The level cap is also making a difference. We are playing the lower end dungeons as a core playstyle.

[ChessJew]

One of many reasons I love it - we actually have time to explore and enjoy these dungeons. Instead of Wailing Caverns being something to do just to get through the leveling, it's an integral part of the game right now.

One of my favorite things about Classic WoW is the elite world quests. The ones where you basically need to put together a 5 man group to complete. The elite Redridge quests come to mind, specifically. They're like a mini instance. Love working as a team in WoW.

I cant stop playing! Im new to classic and I have been neglecting my retail game since launch.... Its awesome to play in a relevant environment.

[XDMGXMXR]

Love the small level diff keeping folks together

[defenestrationstation]

One thing I like about sod is that I can tell my friends to play with me and they actually want to instead of having their eyes glaze over when they realize it would be 100 hours before they can be caught up to my main character

[pisolino]

For me it's also that we don't have flying. I love that i need to see every zone every part of it every tree.
Feels like I'm really there it's immersive and i love it.

You hit the points perfect, this game definitely brings me back to 2005 and I’m enjoying it.

I think people are also forgetting 1 thing that make SoD so fun and so engaging….no mounts. Walking everywhere may seem nightmarish to most newer players, but this give us an opportunity to discover these areas and meet new players.

[greysonmiller]

New players love it too. Me and 4 friends just got into it and Classic is just so vibey and chill to play with friends. The level cap keeps things at a reasonable pace for all of us too.

[joshw]

Very few words, but I will say this. It’s nothing short of amazing. I’m absolutely hooked and even thinking about playing while at work sometimes.

[JOKE]

I hope they will focus more on 10 man raids. I’m so done with guilds running whole servers and having such power over everyone. The logistics of 40 man raids is such a hassle and loot always feels unfair

[Chickentorchic]

It really feels like rediscovering classic. The level caps are absolutely genius, I am doing content I never did before like going to Shadow Fang Keep as alliance or Wailing Caverns. Going early to ratchet to get my runes, discovering new items, seeing transmorphed mobs in Elwynn Forest and much more.

SoD must continue to Classic+ and take the OSRS route imo. This is absolutely brilliant and I am in love with classic all over again

[TechnoWaffol]

Amazing video, subscribed. I stopped playing since MoP and coincidentally started playing again, had no idea about SoD. I'm having so much fun! I know it won't last forever so I'm truly grateful that I get to experience WoW at it's best again.

[assassinwolf]

I am loving playing with tanking as a Shaman. The Mana burn is odd on a tank, but SoD just feels so good!

[ujust]

I love the much slower pace of it all. Level banding is a really good as you can experience everything at a certain level has to offer. People would be 60 already and hitting molten core if it wasn't for level banding. It adds longevity to the season. I have run more WC, SFK, DM in this season that i have since i started playing in vanilla wow.

[JohnSmith-ezpw]

The level cap was genius. You get to explore all of the low level areas fully instead of rushing to 60. It also bakes in BiS tiers you can achieve and "beat" that phase.

[ninjalacoon]

Love the feeling of multiple end games ahead of me. Still so much left to do and see.

[TookyG]

I don't know, there are a LOT of sweaty players. As usual, the players will destroy a game faster and more completely than the devs.

[Mshning]

Me! A 18 year old who started this game in mop and only played retail until SoD (Leveled to 16 when classic first came out) Is loving LOVING my experience in SoD im taking it slow enjoying the game and experiencing something entirely new and fun. I have fallen in love with it and i absolutely recommend all retail players to try it out!
