    Merry Christmas everyone. This is 20 years, yes TWENTY compiled in almost 6 hours. This has been a 2 and a half year project, of picking the most nostalgic themes, along with the best way to represent each zone as we all saw it in our first entry. I’ve played since the very beginning, yes getting very old. No matter what year or what expansion you started in, you WILL find it in this compilation. Every expansion, every zone, every theme. To my 100k+ subscribers and to those who watch non subscribed, we love you all and thank you for the support. Share with friends and help them experience World of Warcraft (in 6 hours)! To 20 more years! A big thank you to Blizzard Entertainment for daring to create such an iconic, beautiful, lush world that has gotten me through sickness and health, as it did many guildies and friends, many alive and passed on. In the light, we are all ONE.

    As a 20 year vet, it all brings back memories but that first couple of hours is different. It really hits you in the feels.

    Nothing like walking through eversong woods for the first time on my blood elf. I keep coming back to this, my two kids have this playing the living room and the atmosphere is beautiful. Thank you Athelarius for this gift.

      As I grow up, I've always been looking for something similar to that feeling I got in eversong woods. But, yeah, you're correct, nothing can compares to that first time in eversong woods and then ghostland to discover more about the Sylvanas sisters. Damn those memories...

    So many memories flushing back. This has to be the greatest video on UA-cam, needs way more views. Already shared with my entire guild
    5:46 God I miss old orgrimmar
    57:38 ever song woods I remember my first blood elf running around
    1:56:26 grizzly hills my heart that’s where’d log my character out forever when servers end
    3:26:07 my favorite theme from WoD makes me feel in an alien world yet heroic melancholic at same time

      Thank you very much! You have no idea how hard it was to condense nearly 20+ hours of music along with the best footage of each zone in the way each player went thru it over 20 years!

      Glad you liked it. Hard to believe it’s been 20 years, all in a vast world which many players, who have come and gone have explored, made friends and made memories!

    It was more than anything, more than life, way more than a game to me.
    This game was the reason I breathe when I was a child, my only purpose for many years.
    I just didn't want to do anything else.
    It was everything to discover, laugh and cry in those lands with my brothers and cousins.
    Especially as a child, those memories are so carved into my brain and are the very essence of my life.
    I've been playing ever since, but damn the first 30min of your video got me SOOO emotional and reminiscent of that time.
    I knew then and I know now that nothing will ever top this experience in my life.
    Thank you so MUCHHHHH for your efforts and very hard work !!!!!
    It really means everything to everyone here i'm sure and this is deeply valued !
    You're a gem of a person to have work so much to make those childhoods and good times long gone back to life again !
    Thank you deeply !

      Thank you so much for the kind words! Glad you liked it! I’ve played since the beginning, and Warcraft 3 was my intro to the franchise. When I heard they made a whole world to explore and play through, I dove right in. 20 years later, all the friends, guildies and players I’ve met, that have come and gone have been memories made to last a lifetime. No other game can give you such nostalgia, especially through its music, such sweet music that lives rent free in my head. This is 20 years packed in 6 hours, every zone and best theme as each player explored when they went thru it. Serves as a great introduction for new players as well who want to know what this world is all about!

      My boss at work started playing right after Classic dropped. One week in and it was all he talked about. He bought me a copy so we could quest together and our lives were consumed for the next 3 xpacts. We were working 50-60 hours a week and playing 50-60 hours a week. Coffee and red bulls were mandatory. Sleep was optional and we didnt get a lot of it for years!. He's retired and plays as much now as ever. Life hit and I backed off in BFA but I still play nearly every week. I'll retire in a few more years and will join him. Crossing fingers Blizz drops a true Classic + revamp about that time. An old world feel in a new world to explore and I'll die at the keyboard! : )

      It’s a beautiful world, and never expected such a vast world to explore back in the days of Warcraft 3. Absolutely nothing like it, and after 20 years the world is still growing.

    The music, the ambiance of the very first wow trailer made me feel the kid I was back then. 😄 I can remember the feeling when I entered Teldrassil and lost among the trees. Thank you for this upload!

    • @Athelarius
      @Athelarius  12 днів тому +1

      Teldrassil was also my favorite, I have a soft spot for night elves since Warcraft 3, the music their design everything. Hard to believe it’s been 20 years already huh!

    Wow it's been 20 years. I remember playing this decades ago now....I can't believe it's still going. I'd give it another 10 years before they say no more.

      It is, I love giant mushrooms and it’s the only zone to do so in WoW aside from the few mushrooms around Draenor’s marshes in WoD. So cozy with music especially
