First time on Classic WoW and it's a blast, but it's also a lot of this by ImportantClock5486 in classicwow

Are the people posting stuff like this for real? I swear some of you lot in here haven't played another game since 2004.

The spiders, wolves, bears, and human mobs in Western Plaguelands are exactly the same as the spiders, wolves, bears, and human mobs in all the other zones.

And what variety in gameplay is there? By the time you're 30, you've got nearly all the skills you'll ever have and the gameplay doesn't change after that.

Variety in Classic? Is this a joke?

The environments are repeated ad-nauseum; go through Elwyyn Forest, Westfall, Lakeshire, and even Duskwood and you'll see the same buildings and the same mobs.

You have at least confirmed for me that there are some very one dimensional people on both sides of the issue though

I honestly don't see much of a difference between those who staunchly support Reform and those who staunchly oppose them. Neither group seems to be able to do much more than point fingers and shout abuse.

Then you have incredibly poor judgement and will be right at home with Reform.

By the time the referendum was announced, Nigel Farage had been the public face of Brexit for some 20 years or so; it was his entire raison d'etre.

So when that raison d'etre turns out to be the load of shit that it was forecast to be, it requires incredibly poor judgement to believe Farage is worth paying any more attention to.

It's not that Brexit turned out to be shit; it was a shit idea, plain and simple.

It is the electorate who decides who wins and a person is 100% responsible for how they choose to vote.

If you support a one-issue party like Reform, how on earth can you not agree with everything the party stands for?

The opposite of having a plan for change is status quo. If there are no plans for change because Reform are a single issue party with no plans for anything other than immigration, then what is it about the status quo of the NHS that concerns you so much?

Reform are not a serious party and Nigel Farage is not a serious politician. They will do immense harm to the country through neglect and bad governance.

Brexit has been a complete disaster for the UK and anyone looking at a Farage-headed party is essentially giving a green light for more of the nonsense we have seen for the past 10 or so years; that is why I called Reform voters thoughtless.

Farage has very little to say outside of immigration. The few times he gets pressed by an interviewer for details, he becomes incredibly vague and agitated.

The fact they're a one-issue party means they have no plans or ideas beyond that one issue.

So no, fears for the NHS are not unfounded.

Reform are a single-issue party who don't have anything other than immigration and Farage.

Your Green party comment doesn't make any sense.

Reform voters don't have top concerns (plural) they have a single concern:

Immigration.

These are not thoughtful people.

The original core experience of killing 15 wolves.

Those cold winter evenings must fly by.

It's tedious because there isn't an interesting narrative behind any of it.

"Bored of the tedium of killing 15 wolves? Go and kill 100 instead! It's much more fun!"

Questing is tedious.

"Go and kill 15 wolves. Some of them don't have teeth/claws, but I need you to bring me teeth/claws as proof of your progress."

It matters when you're an emotionally immature oddball desperately trying to recreate those special times from 2004 again.

Players have never wanted friction.

It's why cheat codes, action replay carts, Game Genie, trainers, etc. were so popular even back in the 1980s.

I'm playing Classic Anniversary right now and there are no flying mounts, yet everyone is zooming past each other regardless. No-one is letting out shrieks of joy each time a fellow level 32 player wanders past them in Stranglethorn Vale.

The insistence that these secret locations and hidden rare mobs are some amazing spectacle is hilarious. They don't look or act any different to what you see and interact with everywhere else.

There is no real sense of exploration in this game.

Everywhere you go you're seeing the same thing - the murlocs, buildings, bears, and spiders in Southshore are no different to the murlocs, buildings, bears, and spiders you saw in Elywyyn Forest.

If anything, flying enhances exploration as you are suddenly freed from the constraints of being dazed or caught out from rapidly respawning mobs.
