- Dalaran Dining Guide
When Inzi Charmlight opened A Hero's Welcome shortly after the city relocated, locals and visitors alike lined up to lay their weapons down and sink their teeth into a tough hunk of bread! Seating is ample, prices are fair and the full bar offers indulgences from all over the world to help you feel satisfyingly heroic. No matter what you order, save room for the Mead-Basted Caribou!
For regional fare in a less boisterous setting, try the Hocus Pocus Inn near the center of town. The open, airy inn is easy to find and serves light meals with pleasant conversation in a relaxed, library-like atmosphere. The regulars are primarily exhausted students of the arcane; no wonder the real star of the show is the incredibly skilled food that prepares and cooks itself at your table!
If you are looking for a bed, a bar and not much else, look no further than the Filthy Animal! The bar area is dark and authentically malodorous, replete at all hours with individuals of questionable character. The menu boasts such delicacies as Briny Hardcheese and it would take an army of enchanted dancing mops and buckets to make the sleeping quarters habitable. A Horde paradise indeed!

When I hear this music, I feel at peace like I am home.
same here. im currently working overseas, listening to this music makes me homesick af
THIS !
I used to hang out just outside the engineering shop. That was my spot. I'd just sit there and watch the world go by.
@@thebreadman And watch the world go by. No one could said it better !
"Let Me Guess, Your Home?"
"It was… and it was beautiful."
This music reminds me of when my Dad would play. He would come home from working late and log in after giving me and my brother a hug. He would sit there for 2 hours and let the music cycle through, we would just sit there and talk that whole time. Love and miss you Dad, hope to do that again soon. It also feels like that amazing mountain view you can only find in a few places in the world. 🥲🤩❤
It's a chilly Friday afternoon in winter 08/09. You're coming home from school. You are glad to get out of the wet outdoor clothes after walking in the cold for 20 minutes and jump into warm and cozy sweatpants. Your mom asks how your day was. After a little chat, you get to your room and start your computer. Your mom brings you a hot chocolate to warm you up. You log in to WoW and hear this music. Looking outside, you notice it's getting dark already. You start up TeamSpeak, all your friends are online and you join them. You have the whole weekend to discover all the mysteries and secrets this awesome expansion has to offer. Life's simple.
Oh boy i'm gonna cry now paying my bills
@@rvdandmarcoom lmao my life was never like this. However I still have fond memories of playing this game. It was more like weekends binging with my friends sitting in one of our parents houses eating hot pockets.
Thank for the tears dude ! We lived probably one of the most epic journey in videogames History. And now, like old Heroes of the past, we talk about good times. Long live the King
I was not prepared for that, gotta say.
❤
WotLK was my peak time playing so this is definitely the song I've listened to the most in all the time I've played. Endless running in circles around Dalaran late at night
so trueeeeeeeeeeeee
You hit the nail on the head man. I was thinking maybe Ulduar was the most I listened to but Dalaran is it. Jumping around the bank, trying to hit those sweet spots where you could get your flying mount into the city, flicking coins in the well, all while spamming work as a blacksmith and making passive income. WOTLK will always hold a place in my heart because I stopped raiding after we got Arthas. My DK had 130 days played at the end of one expansion and I don't regret a minute of it.
I rode my warbear in town just to hear this. Retired in Naxx gear - Truesunn of Zangarmarsh.
One of the things that made me most excited for Legion was Dalaran coming back. I mean I know it was still in game but it's not the same if it's not the main hub.
Dude, I thought I was the only person who did that. Glad to know that I'm not alone when it came to riding around on a mammoth!
Hello Nostalgia, my old friend.
I've come to vibe with you again...
I want to upvote nearly every comment on here, so many good memories :)
I am 44 years old, surely I am older than many of those who read these lines, but inside I am still a young lover of Wow, and despite the fact that many might say that Wow is nothing more than a virtual world, I feel as if the emotions lived playing Wow I really lived them in the flesh, and it is precisely Dalarán and the magic of his music is what makes me experience that feeling and nostalgia the most.
I'm the same as you ... am 47 now and was playing WoW since it came out as Beta in 2004. Sometimes, WoW was more important to me than the real world. Sadly I have not played since 2015 ... but deep down I still long to return to Azaroth.
17 years old here, i remember since i was 3 or 4yo my dad teached me to play WoW, most of the time i borrow his acc and fly and explored everywhere, other times i played with him or he gathered his friends and we all played together, the original national server closed and those accs are now lost, but we still playing in a different server, when i hear wow soundrack i remind myself when i was 7 or 8yo and we played a lot back then
Same for me, the first time when i was walk to the hell gate to go to Azeroth, near the giant tree, i was elf of the night, a druid...it's an amazing records!! It was another world, where i met and play with real people with many differents age, 12 to 55years old...the map was so big, immenses country, when you must to walk, and run, and run on your tiger and thz best: your 1er flying beast for go everywhere in the sky... for go in pvp war, dungeons, meet your guild'friends, farming, or just for visit this incredibles landscapes...
@@suzaila6140 Wrath Classic has now launched this week. It's amazing!! Best time again.
Bro me too. I am 39. I have played since the start.
That amazing feeling when you heartstoned back to Dalaran after a long night of raiding Ulduar / Icecrown Citadel only to be welcomed by this heartwarming music. Buying new gear, getting enchants and sockets, talking with guildies in front of the bank, riding your mammoth or motorcycle mount, doing the cooking daily quests, fishing the coins in the fountain. This place is a tranquil haven that will always hold a dear place in my heart.
I couldn't say it better. You perfectly described my emotions towards Dalaran!
Or in classic when the forsaken sends you to kill the mages of dalaran in hillsbrad.
man
Stop it man, you post has given me nostalgia..
Its back
Does anyone else remember spending hours fishing coins from the little fountain?
I get goosebumps from the beginning every single time, I miss these times so much.
same
Me too.
Sammmmee :(
Now go play wotlk classic i hear this a few times a day :)
Cherish the memories, as they last forever. I am glad and proud to be part of this memory.
2021 , reading all your comments and feeling all your pain that is just the same as mine, memories and great miss of home
I remember running around Dalaran on my grandfather's account. He had so many mounts and hunter pets. I was around 7 years old.
I miss you, grandpa. You would've loved Classic WoW. 💔
Things were so different back then. One thing I've learnt is that life always has it's share of good and bad. Sometimes one outweighs the other. Ultimately that can affect your hindsight.
When we were young and we were playing Wrath, the game was quite different. It required a more dedicated approach from its players to be fulfilled. You had to partially live in that world. It's because of that I think, that these older versions of WoW have become entwined with events and emotions from our lives as they were back then. Parts of our lives during that period was spent in the virtual world of Azeroth.
So looking back we get this flooding nostalgia, as if the events we experienced were as real and palpable as the events of our lives at the time. That's a very specific and intriguing effect for a video game to have. Everyone I speak to about WoW has countless stories from the Wrath era. Blizzard hit the mark on pretty much everything in regards to the game itself. But we are the ones really that made it what it was - and how exciting it was! An invasion of a northern continent to save the world. It's not the same playing it today - it never will be.
I guess my point is there's a reason Wrath in particular invokes such a strong nostalgic response. We all had lives and we all had our problems. But that was offset by the adventure there was to be had in Northrend. I don't know if we're ever going to see the same thing again. I'm not sure it's possible as we've all grown up. So lose yourself in wistful memory of this incredible slice of MMO history. If you played back then, you were a part of something very special.
This needs more upvotes. You perfectly captured exactly how many of us feel, and the last few words brought a tear to my eye. I'll always love Warcraft, but itll never be quite as amazing as it was during the first 6 years.
Omg, u hit it!
True. But you can have it again if they only gave us back the servers.
Well said
Growing up doesn't mean stopping doing the things you enjoy
Funny how I actually hated the music in Dalaran back in Wrath, but listening to it again over a decade later makes me teary-eyed.
"i wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you actually left them" 😞
The good old days are always now. Always enjoy now, of y never enjoy the good old days
I remember when I was young and I would ask a mage to teleport me as a lvl 35-40 to dalaran, and thinking it was so badass and then I would drop down to crystal song forest and I would see the lvl 80s and be like "woaaaaa"
Seeing the skull as their level was intimidating
I miss 2009.
BC...WOTLK.. best years of my life..
Nostalgia is killing me... Good old days.
[ mount roaring sounds ]
" what happened to your friend..? "

Ah the hustle and bustle of Dalaran...
I once was in Dalaran when I heard:
"That our lives... our lives are worth livCITIZENS OF DALARAN!"
I almost blew my brains out.
Ronin's speech after finishing ulduar
"hey bro wanna do a dungeon?"
"nah man, i am gonna go but ill be back on later"
Last online 10 years ago.
so sad
I'm back after exactly 10 years. It's amazing! It pulls you in immediately, and it DOES the same magic again! I didn't expect it but it really does.
I feel you mate...
@@caballolo1if i won the lottery and the kids were in school seems like a no brainer for me lol
I fished every sticking coin in that damn fountaine pond !!!
Damn i got so emotional, i'm actually in tears. Good times.
Man at 11:11, the nostalgia gets me every time. Reminds me of staying in vent late after raid nights running around in circles.
Theyhunger2426 I thought i was the only one doing this
11:11 what is he talking about?? *clicks* AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

I still remember Blizzcon 2011 when they played this music while people were waiting for the opening ceremony to begin. Listening to this while meeting the guildies for the first time, laughing and enjoying their company as we all anxiously awaited the ceremony to begin and a new expansion to be revealed. I'll never forget that day and I love this music for that moment.
Whenever i feel sad or something bad happened in my personal life and at work, i always comeback here, i will always remember the first time i've seen dalaran it was so peaceful and i just can't explain that feeling, thank you for this video so much
Dalaran always made me feel safe & at peace . A magically city floating high in the air & protected by magic . Far away from the horrors of the Undead Scourge and the all mighty Lich King omnipresent on the land beneath it .
so true
After Wintegrasp, or a run of ICC, coming back to the city and hearing this haunting music holds so many fond memories.
Ahhhhhh, sometimes I think about WoW and what a great game it was. Then I come to the realization that I will *never* experience it in this exact way again. That makes me sad. Sad in a positive way. I was there. And it was good.
Yeah, it's incredible how many people feel this way about it. I think part of it is playing it at the right time in your own life, and being there when WoW really had that sense of community. I used to be able to spend SO much time playing WoW, probably an unhealthy amount looking back haha, but it was just such a fantastic experience.
I Still come for the music
29:04 They can never re-create something like this. This musical composition is straordinary. The mood, the feeling, the surroundings were just pure epicness.
Thank you Blizzard for what you have created.
I hope one day our streets will cross again !
Dont thank them now, thank the ones that are no longer a part of the blizz team.
@@xMorbidArtxIve just seen your answer to this comment and I have to say, after two years, that you are completely right.
If 4 years ago I still had some respect for the company that made me love gaming, now I don't anymore.
The reasons are well known.
I wish you all the best
No joke, this is my decompression music when I get home from work each day. It always calms me down. This particular song from the soundtrack is art.
Soon we can re live this again with the launch of WoW Classic Wotlk. Im coming home.
Yeah we now hear this everyday :)
Haven't been on WoW in years but this is bringing back a ton of memories of little things like helping that guy who turns the lights on, or hunting those books, or the shop with the optical-illusion tower that looks taller on the inside, or the Ninja Turtles in the underbelly.
Ah, Lagaran.
Dalalag for me ^^
Slagamar
When i listen to this i feel like im at home. Maybe this seems wierd , but every time i hear this music i feel at peace,
i feel like im free of my problems, i fell like im forgiven, i feel like im understood, i always get intense goosebumps and i get tears in my eyes...thats just how much i lovwe the music and the ambiance of this place. Ive never wanted more to relive the first time i flew to this place and heard the music , than at this point in my life. I never imagined i could run away from my problems to a place like this, and im so glad right now, that this exist. Im always happy when i go to Dalaran, just to feel better.
The perfect expansion
It started as the perfect expansion. Ended up as the beginning of the end.
Best place best game ever 🥰
Got into WoW late and just started playing as soon as WOTLK launched. Didn't know what to expect and it was probably the best expansion other than from TBC, This was a cherry on top of the previous one. Gosh so many memories. The people was something else back then. Great bondages and guilds.
It's almost the end of 2022 and I guess it's time to renew my WoW subscription and go for walks in these various cities and zones, listen to the music and enjoy the peace of fantasy. ❤❤❤
So many memories come with this music. I remember the very first time i walked in dalaran with my first ever character. Sadly, i will never feel the same i felt back in the day. Nostalgia hits hard with this one. I forgot that i was gonna do it, but maybe it's time to get a warcraft tattoo, maybe a hunter-related one. I love you wotlk❤️
I remember when this place was packed solid to the brim full of players and my newly bought 8800 GTS ultra and AMD 3.2ghz windsor CPU and being the only person on the realm with windows XP 64 bit and 8 GB of ram to load this behemoth without issues.
this is what the peak of a franchise sounds like, never to be reached again
Idk bout yall but when I get married one day I want the first minute of the dalaran soundtrack to play as my girl walks down the isle. And as I lift her veil, the bass drops and the choir is at its peak. Brings tears to my eyes thinking about this hypothetical situation haha
Hard to believe WOTLK is 13 years old. I remember when it was 1st released. I miss WoW. I havent played it in at least 8 months. Seems like forever.
I lost my daughter in this time frame
I think i will have to mention your channel in my master thesis in the acknowledgment part, because i'd never finish it without these amazing masterpieces (:
So, did you mentioned it ? ;p
Bless you for having made this channel. Countless hours of nostalgia and peace. This music, this scenery... I am at home.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
Господи, как же это было классно, это было такое незабываемое время, давно уже не играю в ВОВ, но так хочется вернуться и встретить старых друзей и гильдию с которой встречались на пикниках, тусовались, влюблялись, ээх, было время ☺
Как же я вас понимаю, вот только я сейчас ещё играю в актуальную версию, но гильдии такой как раньше уже нет, многие поуходили, старые друзья уже видимо остались в прошлом. Но всё равно эта игра остаётся для меня самой лучшей, это хранилище тёплых воспоминаний давно ушедших дней и я с радостью буду возвращаться туда снова и снова.
@@_.adelira._ опять тоска накрыла 😞
Здравствуй, вы играете ещё?
My most beloved place, regardless of my age, job, status etc... A place that feels like true home
when you walk around dalaran 5am
I love Dalaran. When night fell, my little Warlock would find Sparkshine the gnome. He sold Windle's Sparklighters. These are little candles. And I went with Warlock to ignite the various street lights and sconces with candles atop, which are located around Dalaran. The lights illuminated Dalaran beautifully, and it really made a difference. The music played in the background...lovely.
this made my forearm hair stand up. The nostalgia kicking in hard.
So much nostalgia... wow I love this game with all my heart.
Ah Leana, if only we met in life... I wish you a great life remembering all the great things that we enjoyed during our paths :)
@@Reds_C if only yeah :)
@@Reds_C thank you very much, same
This is one of the Song that brings memories to me. Its like Morrowind Main Theme. Sometimes it doesn't take much to evoke deep feelings. I remember on my old Guild, old Friends. Spend hours in Teamspeak. Talk about the game, about the World. I have been meets a lot of the old Guild Member and we still meet every year. I even became the godfather of a fellow guild member and now my best friend. Thank to the old World of Warcraft.
At that time the cohesion in the game was completely different and there was not permanent min maxing. Nostalgie
Siempre usaba piedra hogar solo para escuchar esa canción celestial, Warcraft nunca te olvidare😎
Siiii hacía lo mismo...
The city I'm forever in love with. The music takes me out of this world
Miss sitting by the fountain, chatting to my guildmates, listining to this and footsteps of other players running around
WotLK, prime time in wow's lifespan
Of course it was , it was a conclusion to the a storyline that started with Warcraft 3.
@@Mammothtankgrind And the start of LFR, Endless time gating of content in the form of dailies, Hero classes, Loss of class identity, Instant dungeon hopping, Dumbing down of all content and trivializing progression through existing content with semi-monthly new releases.
Wotlk Was the end of WoW - everyone who made it what it was left and what they left behind was an ugly bastard child of corporate greed and fantastic creativity.
......music was epic tho
@@topesjeebal8760 Not the start of LFR, but the inception of LFD. Keep your facts in order.
That being said, I agree LFD is not a good thing. Absolutely loved Arena though. I wish they brought the same level of complexity, intensity and balance back.
@@topesjeebal8760 Those things did come quite late into the expansion. I started playing during WotLK, and enjoyed my time without LFD much more than I did with it. Our server had a community, there were players I actually recognised, and those that recognised me. I made tons of actual friends, many that I still talk to today over a decade later. When LFD came out everyone was just able to be anonymous, nobody spoke unless they absolutely needed to. Too much instant gratification.
@@ElliotWrightUK i agree with all of these things! I hardly ever see others pointing out these as the root of the downfall of what was to what is. These things and merging a bunch of servers into a quasi mega server but players still belonged to their original server. Those pillars were the foundation that destroyed the community that made WoW so magical then.
Damn it reminds me of hours of flexing on my new chopper near banks waiting for rt to ICC. No, I'm not crying....
We can all re-live this in about 2 years when WoW WotLK Classic comes out!
I currently play on WOTLK private server which does the trick. All i want to do with WoW is reminisce.
Mad lad
I am lol!
My home...
21:01 inspire Hans Zimmer " a time of quiet between the storm" for Dune 2 for sure
i love the vocals soon after 1:11, especially combined with the visual shot there! it just seems so epic and representative of the mage culture there!
To me, the true prime of WOW. Vanila and BC are great. But WOTLK was another level: lore/quest, raids, character, areas, music (Especially Dalaran and Grizlly Hills). I discovered WOW with BC during my early teen's years. And that was best gamer's period of my life. I meet wonderul people, just chilling and fight in dungeon or BG. And now, I'm a man near of 30 yo. I stop WOW when MOP was came. But my memories will be always here, and now listen this song hit me with nostalgia. Thank WOW, Thank Blizzard, and thanks everyone to make me happy
you missed out man. Mop was amazing. I never stopped playing and I dont ever have issues with nostalgia until I hear old osts like this one and it takes me back to being a teenager and my god does it hurt my heart
I often miss the World of Warcraft of those days when I felt a real person over the monitor.
One of my most favorite people on this planet is a wow friend. They’re real and the connections are too :)
Thank you Blizzard. This era was amazing and we are lucky to have played at that time. Best game ever.
0:32 POV you go to heaven :
- Hi, welcome to your new life, i think you know where we are ?
-Hell yeah, i waiting for this my whole previous life ...
It isn't lost on me that this music will have an impact on me and my life that no matter what i'm going through this will always reach me. Bravo blizzard, bravo.
Running around Dalaran in your favorite mount for hours looking for a group to do dungeons. I might just jump into a mammoth parade while I wait. Holy crap, is that warrior dual wielding Armageddon!?
....right in the feels man.
Something comes over me when I hear this music. It's some peaceful. Plus, I guess lots of memories in this area with friends from long ago. Just a good feeling.
Even the sound effects in this masterpiece of a game is breathtaking. All the little assets put together make it what it is. A pure Masterpiece.
I was 6-10 yo when i played wotlk, you can call my mom mad but omg i can fell litteraly feel the game everytimes i hear this song. I was 8, I bought the mount with a shop on it, i ran in circle, enjoying my little life without problems
I was playing it at age that you are now, enjoying my little life without problems :)
One of the most beautiful themes... I miss so much that past time, pure nostalgia...
Home. As much as I wanted to go back and play classic Wrath I couldn't, something would stop me.
13:34 this always, ALWAYS gives me chills, simplicity and fun, how i miss it
"None can escape the fury of the stars!"
I really enjoyed reading the history of the city, thank you!
"Dalaran Dalaran, I am in Dalaran, Riding around Dalaran, because I am bored."
Pinged 80 when entering, (getting the discovery xp, I planned it so not by accident). Middle of the night having quested in the crystal forest below. Epic
WoW came out when I was an adult so I don't have the aching feelings of childhood nostalgia that a lot of players do. The music of original WoW and TBC was largely subdued ambience (except for TBC's dungeons and raid instances which had some notoriously moody bangers). The sharp, rich tones you hear in videos from the last 15 years is post-remastered audio that occurred *I think* during Cataclysm's makeover. In fact, the old music was so uninteresting to the majority of us players that we turned the music slider all the way down and played our own music. This is why most old fraps/screen captures of classic WoW have metal or electronic music drowning out the game sounds lol.
It wasn't until WOTLK came out when the music actually blew me away. My main started questing to 80 in Howling Fjord and my god. At one point those horns synced up perfectly with me walking to a cliff's edge for the first time and seeing just how vertical the zone was and it was one of the most mind-blowing experiences of the game for me. I had played the game for like 4 years up to that point and was in utter disbelief that it was still capable of taking me by complete suprise. Then they remastered the audio for all the old zones and it really made a huge difference and gave me a whole new appreciation for those zones.
your videos are my life. so awesome
Thank you! More to come, I'm still not even halfway there :)
Thank you :3 So many fond memorys ,Just from hearing this music again
Love these long tracking shots through the kitsch architecture of WOW cities.
This brings me such a warmth
Evokes such a passion
Reverence
Tysm❤
I really wanted to hear the Dalaran music again, so I did a search and picked the most appealing link. OF COURSE it's Everness! I've listened to all your Skyrim music & ambiance vids, you are the absolute best at this!
Time remaining 30 days, subscription conformed.
Thank you for this videos, especially this.
I liked the wall of lore! I'm really interested in the hisory of Azeroth, and anything you can chuck in there about it, whatever area you are covering, will remind me about it, and maybe fill in some gaps I might have missed in my studies of it. The avid readers will love it, and the non avid readers can just ignore it and listen o the music instead. There's really no downside here, lol!
Thanks for making these vids an hour long. I use them to get to sleep sometimes....even if it's just for a little while. (huge insomnia)
23:03 is where the music starts for the new Hunter legendary from Rise of Shadows
Mi hogar, las mejores experiencias y momentos las pase mientras escuchaba esta música hace mucho en un pequeño server privado, ya que no tenía acceso a Internet en aquel momento, jugábamos alrededor de 150 personas diariamente con tantas ganas...con tanta ilucion, con tantas ganas de explorar y descubrir cosas nuevas... Siento tanto que esos momentos ya nunca volverán.
I still remember running Forge of Souls and thinking, "damn, I can't heal this." The rest is history.
Recently saw Dune 2 in theaters and I got Dalaran vibes from the soundtrack 👍
Definitely remember spending many hours jumping of the stairs by the horde portals onto the blood elf statues while waiting for my battle grounds and arena queues to pop
Finally... peace... Arthas must fall, no matter what...
"all those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain"
Oh the memories I started in mid wrath I stopped playing when mop came out. I was I awe when a friend of mine brought me to Dal for the first time.
miss dalaran. send love from south korea. thank you so much for making great game blizzard. it was my great experience and history.
