You get it. Made the switch and haven't looked back. Later expansions are actually dope on TLP.

I tried Mischief for about a month. It was fun. Joined kinda late though (LoY was out, the char I rolled was a froglok necro), so I still felt a little out of place and overwhelmed. I don't hate the later expansions, just kinda want to experience the earlier ones first.
Seriously looking forward to Yelinak in about a week though. I'd love to experience the classic content as it was meant to while slowly progressing the expansions from the beginning and learning along the way. Already got a guild lined up, gonna be a blast.

It is heaven if you care more about enjoying the content and progressing your character than you care about being the one who wins the server and out-poopsocks everyone else. Unfortunately, TLPs have certain non-classic mechanics that make it a little less satisfying to actually do the raids. For one thing, DPS is so absurdly high that a lot of fights are over in moments. It's really not until Plane of Time that there's any serious challenge in it, unless you're in a casual guild that can't field a full raid.

That's honestly totally fine with me. I'm not looking for a super sweaty balls-to-the-wall challenge, and I'm not looking to conquer anyone. Part of the reason I quit WoW, it feels too e-sporty and competitive these days. I'm not a super technical hyper-twitch gamer. I just want to be able to have a good time, shoot some dragons with magic, be included in content, and feel some semblance of victory even if I'm not the greatest player in the world.
The bonus too is that from what I heard, wizards (my favorite class) are generally more effective and respected on Live than they are on P99, and I can play one on TLP without shame or being ostracized. Instanced raids are also great. I'll take all that in exchange for a stranger looking Freeport, any day.
I have high hopes for Yelinak.
