I tried out WoW Classic just like I tried out EQ Progression so I could get a little nostalgia kick before Green comes out. I played WoW for like a year back in the day, got to 60, got bored and left.
For me, WoW is a fine game but it's too easy. It tells you everything and there are a million add-ons for the rest. Here is your quest giver, here is where they drop, this is the map with all the icons. I go PvP, I hear a ding when an enemy gets into range, I get his name, class, level on a nice pop-up, he's got the same info. There are tons of mobs everywhere, just right on top of each other, and they respawn every 10 seconds. I get outraged when I get to a camp and the named isn't up, what the hell is this!? The only death penalty is some coin, maybe. Every class can solo to 60 easily. And I don't mean with some effort. I mean semi-afk button mashing. I never stop killing. I'm a warrior, why would I need a group for? I got potions, bandages, food, my downtime is the sit and stand animation. You can get great gear from easy quests. There are flight paths, boats and zeppelins everywhere. It just goes on and on.
It comes down to personal preference for what style appeals to you. I need risk and I need a slower pace.
