More exploration! This will be a long series

Would prefer to see the smaller stuff, feels like everyone and their mother has done Old Ironforge, but I didn't know about the Yeti Cave in Hillsbrad

The fact that you are still, after all these years, able to find content to create for Classic WoW....its a testament to how special that old, OG, original, vanilla game really was.

[Sikudhani]

"I happen to prefer the old model, actually, but that might also be because I think that everything that is old is superior to everything that is new because I am... a... depressed, Classic World of Warcraft player..."

Most relatable and insightful line thus far in the series. A+

Im a simple man, i see mad season discussing lore/niche topics and i click video the video. This is the only wow channel i still watch 😂

Waiting for the boats and then sailing across the ocean was actually something I really loved when I was a bright eyed bushy tail Newby. It really made the world feel big and lived in.

Boats and actually flying via gryphon were amazing

MadSeason never fails to brighten up my morning coffee.

My vote is to ALL content, I love that 20 years later I'm still learning about the game. I want to know everything.

[anthonys]

Do a whole zone at a time, instead of big/small content. Then you can hit all the big and small stuff 1-3 zones at a time

[vagrantknights]

Just wild that 20 years later we're still talking about secrets and unreleased content in vanilla WoW. Testament to the passion and scope that the original devs had. They truly wanted to create a massive and memorable world.

I was one of the very lucky few to get into the F&F closed beta of WoW. I say that, because I remember vividly, being on my dwarf warrior, in Stonetalon Mountains, when this undead mage came walking up to me, asking me if I knew where the wyverns were located. I thought it was such a cool idea that the undead could speak common. I remember when Alliance/Horde wanted to do trades, that they would have to have undead players there to translate for the different factions.

12:05 dude heck yes. Show the little changes. I personally absolutely love seeing how games like WoW change and evolve over time. It is super interesting.

[presage]

It threw me off at first when I did a Deadmines run in Twow and there was an orc in the group. Then I realized that server removed cross faction restrictions. Playing a rogue and having a shamn in the group is just amazing.

[hopri]

Those Micro-Dungeons that you mentioned during the Scholomance part reminds me heavily of Everquest p99. Different zones being a complete dungeon with bosses and more.

[Serphentin]

Andorhal got changed in like 1.4 actually, didn't it? At launch, the buildings were intact, but it got changed early in vanilla because the area was so dense with monsters in second floors and inside buildings that it was a laggy mess.

Also, there was no "1.0" version. The game launched as 1.1!

***Random Video Idea Suggestion***

@MadSeasonShow, whenever I watch your videos, around half way or so I always have the urge to check the comment section to see some of the amazing stories that some of WoW's many player have to share. I don't know if it would be hard to edit or put together but what if you interviewed or had people send you and tell you about some of their classic WoW adventures and how your videos have literal scenic footage of where friendships were made and legends were created. I read stories of people who just started with their friend in Elwyn to people who talked about their insane guild camping world bosses over night battling against the opposing faction. It may just be me being a nerd but I would read a whole book of peoples adventures in this game if I could. There are so many items, quests, zones, NPC's who effected everyone who played this game in different way. Anyways just tossing me 2 cents in wherever it's might be useful, I've been watching your videos since 2019 and not a single time have I not been taken back to a comfortable home, thank you for that Mad. Keep creating and Keep enjoying brother. Thank you for always keeping us entertained.

The boats weren't in quite at release. I remember having to talk to the NPCs to travel across continents but they were patched in not that long after release.

[JamesSeda]

Love the smaller stuff as well. It’s special to me. Please feel free to add more and talk about it. 😊. Thanks for the video.

[adamwenzell]

Will never get sick of the monotone legend, thanks for all you do!

The missing boat in Theramore would most probably go to Gilneas or Kul Tiras
