Tried so hard to get all those damn coins!!1~~~

I have ~8500 acv points including every single one of those coins. God what did I do with my life.

So, when I played WoW, I was pretty much always high off DXM. It was the perfect game because I could go level with a friend while neither of us knew wtf we were doing. Kinda goes to show how easy that game was. Ungoro was the standout zone. The dinosaurs were huge, and the Nintendo characters/crystal cave were trippy as hell.

The first time I raided TSS with my guild I was of course fucked up. I accidentally fall off a cliff and die in the water, and for whatever reason > half the raid jumps in after me. Fucking hilarious moment. And of course that giant fish thing flung me way out into the middle of nowhere and my guild made fun of me relentlessly for that. Way not enough reaction time to evade that.

Hardness debate is skewed here. The scripts for wow raids and bosses were much more complex then eq classic for mostly technical limitation reasons. But let's compare the difficulty of leveling to max level combined withthe pain of wiping on a raid in the first year of both games. Oh noes you lost a few gold and have to spend 15 min getting back and buffing up for the next attempt at whatever wow raid. Or, oh noes you opened that one door in ToV and killed everyone, costing the guild about 2 hours of travel/prep time and a few kpp for coffins peridots etc etc. Now that the technology is equal eq raids are fucking stupid hard the best guilds out there I think havent beaten the newest expantion yet. Anyone ever beat OMM from god expac? I think that was around the time of those wow raids you mentioned and that shit was redunky hard.

WoW had voicechat from the get go. I think that's one reason why it's so underestimated in comparison. Progression rates on encounters would have been easily halved in classic WoW and up to BC.

It seemed much easier because of technological reasons outside of the game(voicechat, G15s), coupled in game with a much more fluid ui and macro system.

Truth, voicechat did make classic wow 100x easier than classic EQ.
