Just remember years ago. I was sick and skipped a day at school, sat with my blanket around me at my PC and made my first undead. It was raining outside and in the game as well and it was the coziest I've ever felt. It was also at the same time the halloween event was going on, and I remember the headless horseman yelling stuff ingame and couldn't figure out what was going on. God I miss being a kid.
Laugh my ass off, at 21:31 the guy running up to try and catch the zeppelin as it is leaving! Does he make it? Hee hee hee... Great capture, Everness !
There’s a particular type of person who looks through both factions, all the races, and says “Forsaken. That resonates. That’s me.” And then we wake up in a crypt for our first ever steps into this amazing world. Shoutouts to you, my brethren. This makes me want to download the game and do it all over again. Even running until level 40!
Specially during Classic/Vanilla days, Undead just felt different. All the other Horde races were kind of Tribal/Savage/Backwater which felt the same and then there's the Undead of Lordaeron.
I wasn´t even a Horde player, but as a fan of the WC3 story I feel traversing Tirisfal just weeks after game release on the way to the Scarlet monastery and for exploration was the exact way this region was supposed to be experienced. You are this unwelcome guest in a cursed land, the fucking rogues can land their sap or cheap shot any second, the chilling windmill carcasses in the background, and the haunted music playing. It was a proper adventure, something that can only be experienced once.
This and the Elwynn Forest theme have the same musical motive. It's like seven or eight notes long. Cool how the composer keeps the association between humans and undead.
Angel Custodius I always found it extremely scary. I never made it past lvl 6 as an undead. It would be really peaceful and beautiful without the corpses running around.

This is all that we have left now...a world of memories, a world uncorrupted by the greed for gold. So glad there are videos like this to take us all back.
Oh please. Undead Rogue. Trust me, I never cried more than being killed by the billions and millions of Undead Rogues because there were nothing else but Undead Rogues. #PriestLyfe #PriestTears
Yup, another undead rogue repping here as my first toon. What's more evil was that no one told me leveling as a Sub Rogue was a bad idea. I love one-shotting lone mobs, but against a group of them? You better know how to CC or corpse run. Your choice.
I didn't jump on the bandwagon when it all started. It is odd because I really loved Warcraft 2. That game was one of my first encounters to the RTS genre, which has become one of all time favourite. I later found my true gem in RPG. Around 10 years after the release I reluctantly started to play it, I believe it was the Pandaria expansion. As I understand now that was a totally different game from the original or now the classic version. I didn't like it and stopped playing. One week ago I started to play Classic with the SoD. Again reluctantly I picked it up. My friends choose undead and I wanted to play nightelf. I decided to give it a try anyways. I have fallen in love with this game and that is 100% because of Tirisfal Glades. The atmosphere in this area is almost as haunting as Yharnam in Bloodborne. I am so glad that I tried once again to play this game.
It used to be such a great lore-rich area. Now it's a wasteland after BfA. I hate what they did to Sylvanas Windrunner's character in recent expansions. She was so interesting back in Classic and Wrath of the Lich King, but now she's just another evil 'I want to kill everybody' kind of character. As an anti-hero type of character, she was way more interesting and cool. Now she's just a villain they threw away.
Okay this is some serious nostalgia for me. I started WoW back in the 2005ish time period. Not 100% certain when, but it was definitely during Vanilla. My first character ever was an undead warlock. One of my fondest memories was traversing out of that little shoddy starting area and wandering my way to Brill. I loved Brill. This was the first real town I had been to and it was exciting. There were a lot of people all around my level, as well as people higher level running around on undead horses. It was so cool. I loved the feeling of it too. It was this horrible rundown town. You could tell it was desecrated and ruined. I deeply despise what they did to Brill in Cata :( it just isn't the same, and I also dislike the weird Frankenstein architecture that they chose for the Undead. Should have been more like what the worgen got but with more spook =/ Anyway, shortly after making him, I got incredibly lost (I had tried to see how far I could go into fatigue and ended up so far out of the world that I defaulted to the Barrens graveyard that serves as the default Horde graveyard) and also really hated the mana mechanic, so I changed to an undead warrior and learned about Hearthstones LOL. My undead warlock is still standing in the Barrens graveyard at level 12 to this day. And the warrior is 22 in Ashenvale where he was questing. This music serves as a reminder into my beginnings of this game and all the wonder that accompanied it. I will never forget the time I spent running around Brill for the Dark Lady. I helped apothecaries create a new plague (a lot. Seriously there were so many quests that revolved around this. Herbs, murloc spines, literally everything). I helped scour the remains of the scourge from the lands. I fought against the crazy zealots in the Scarlet Crusade who saw us as no different than the Scourge. Tirisfal glades was an amazing time.
Can relate to 90% of what you had gone through. Although, I am to this day still sticking to my one and only undead warlock I had created back when I had been starting my journey in Deathknell... Tirisfal, Silverpine and Hillsbrad were and still are my favorite WoW zones (ambience and vibe they were giving off helped strengthen that gloomy and dark moon of the Undead as a race). I do prefer pre-cata versions of them, but even after cata update they are still my favorite. Taking everything into account previously written, must be the reason as to why my main is undead, and why all of my alts that could possibly be undead are undeads... Nice story, are you still playing and if so to which class have you made a switch to and made your main, after giving up on lock and warrior?
About the architecture... The Undead are a race that are based upon death, blight and destruction... or at least this is what Sylvanas is trying to make of their society. The Gilneans are more victorian-like, whereas the Lordaeron has a more feudal touch to its architecture. Something that would remind you of a castle and farms around it. Sylvanas wanted that Lordaeron touch altered with an "evil seasoning". She loves being worshipped and obeyed. This is also the reason why she has a statue in the center of Brill. I know that the changes that occurred during Cataclysm have been hard to accept by many people. Nostalgia is getting pissed on by many of these alterations. Probably u can see now that in BFA everything got destroyed. Tirisfal Glades was meant to go through drastic changes. The big question now is "What is the place that The Forsaken will name as "home" now?". I'm really curious about the upcoming changes about the ethnicity and the geographical parts. Also... my first character was also an Undead Warlock (demonology spec). This is why I commented here in the first place. Somehow I felt that I share your situation.
Me it was undead warlock too, funny enough I leveled him to 60 and completely forgot to do the summon fel hound quest, when I realized I went to try and do it but was locked out, that was..... it had to be at least 10 years ago O_o But yea shortly into leveling that warlock I made an undead rogue n fell in love with the aspect of sneaking places. But anyway I remember at release playing the game, my older brother borrowed the credit card information from one of his own friend's brothers in order to pay for the subscription xD Just running around felt amazing, not knowing where to go or what to do, that is a feeling most wish could have never ended but of course being a kid at the time it was bound to get old. I was 14-15 years old at the time, now 30 years old.
I made a night elf warrior for my first toon and qued for WSG, my very first BG in Darnasus. After the BG it put me in Stormwind for some reason (later found out it was a common bug at the time) and I had no clue where I was relative to where I used to be. Little did I know I could just walk out of the city and find quests lol. For that reason I quit and deleted the charecter and settled on my female human warlock which was my main through cata.
At the end of "Ghosts 2" at about 21:50 a Blood Elf is trying to catch the zeppelin just as it's leaving, and you can see him fall to his death near the tree when he tried to jump for it. LMAO!! A fitting song for the moment. Boy that brings back some painful but funny memories.
The final crescendo in Haunted 2 is awesome. A great addition from Cataclysm. Every time I’m in Tirisfal and I hear it, it makes me feel at home there. Favorite zone by far.
13-14 years ago i was in High School and a friend of mine is showing me a WOW gameplay on youtube. Went home got the game on my old pc and started playing TBC. Made my first undead rogue and i got hooked on the game so bad... My wife asks me even to these days what i loved about being a teenager. I look back with a hard feeling in my chest , sometimes like i almost cry and i always say to her: Being home and playing WOW all day and night with my online friends , no worries at all , even rejecting girls because i had no time spending with them.
First faction, first race.. that leaves a mark. And the music is still above all and will probably never be topped. Haunting, fitting music and an absurd level of detail is what made that game special.
Game had recently released and after messing with a Dwarf Hunter and Rogue, I decided to try Undead because I loved their laugh, their eating what they kill for health, the air guitar animation and because I wanted to try a Warlock. It was some time in October. After basic questing and destroying worlds in low level PVP by just tossing DoTs, i stumbled across some ruins while exploring in PVE. After deeper exploration I accidentally got into the Under City and WOW! The Halloween decorations were out and it was incredible. This music and video take me back!
Idk who will read this but I still have a untouched level 60 undead mage from vanilla wow, decked out in dungeon and some different raids. Thanks for the upload :)
I prefer the old Tirisfal Glades back from Vanilla. Mysterious and dark place but the newer sci fi undead structures changed the vibe completly. They first appear in Wotlk I think and become a thing in Cataclysm! I prefer the creepy human farm-house instead. Because of how they look old and worn out just like the Undead.
The nostalgia can be good for a bit yes, it conjures up some great memories but it can also be sad and painful. We all crave to return to that place and time when we were innocent kids having fun. Unfortunately, once it's been and gone, it 's gone forever. That doesn't mean we can't reminisce about the good times but just don't expect to go revisit there as with vanilla wow and that it will be the same it can never be the same cos you've grown and changed with time. You will only be disappointed if you go back and your old memories will be dilluted. When i stopped playing wow I never wanted to go back to vanilla wow cos when I had left many years ago I had already lost my online wow friends. Wow became a cemetary and the tombstones had my friends' characters names on them. I mourned at their graves , i cried, really , i cried pitiful tears of a child who lost some of the best friends she ever had. Then I logged out in trisfal glades and never returned. You never forget your first love, so true for games and online friends too. And here i am listening to wow music 🥺😄😂
I love Tirisfal Glades, the Undercity, and the Ghostlands have all been favorite based on my deeply hidden dark side that favors things of this nature. No, it didn't make worship the devil or try any resurrections of the undead, but already believing in the paranormal and supernatural, those areas just settled me into my all-things-creepy zone. Playing WoW throughout October as an undead, I swear to God this area was just a big jumpscare waiting to happen because the music was suspenseful and then trickled out after the score's climax, forever freaking me out while playing the game. It's okay, though. @15:14 is also the music played when you're dead and when playing the game over the years and dying a lot....not because I sucked or anything....but, I would purposefully let the music go on and on as my mother yelled at me in the background to return back to the living because the music was bugging her. Funny, but definitely appealed to my creepy side hardcore.
My first character was a Human Paladin in Vanilla...I created it because my friend who introduced me to WoW needed more tank/healer for the guild. However it didn't sit well for me. I ditched that and created a Forsaken Warlock, best decision I made. Tirisfal glades is home.
just a few clicks on this one.. but im sure most people started their wow journey right here. it was just dark and misterious. that nostalgia just killed me.
Ah good times. I originally wanted to be an ogre but I didn't realise it was an april fools joke; so I wanted to be a goblin, which wasn't out then so I decided to be Undead. Note I didn't know what horror was back then. It was my first experience with gothic too, I left the crypt and I was so scared of everything. So I logged off, but for some reason I wanted to go back on; despite being terrified. It was a new sensation that kept me playing; I was out of my comfort zone and every level I gained was me conqurering it. Also there were moments that did scare me, like discovering the human face on the gnoll tent and the abominations being built in undercity; but it felt great to overcome something new I feared.
My first character was an undead rogue named “Ruh” for Rogue Undead Horde lol. Made him on my dads account back around burning crusade era. I remade him on my account I play now and will always be my favorite character.
This is so nostalgic for me. There was something about the creepy and horror in WoW’s world that’s always been so alluring to me. I remember my first character was a human and I got a taste for the horror when I visited duskwood too early. Then later on exploring tristifal glades and that whole northern part of the map I loved! Shadow fang keep was one of my favorite dungeons!
Really loving reading WoW short stories to these. Just now the forsaken short story from Folk & Fairy Tales. "Death offers a fresh perspective on life. All we have here ar our memories and the choices that brought us here. What we believe makes us who we are, _for better or for worse._ "
I have so much nostalgia for Tirisfal, man. I spent so much time there as my Death Knight during WotLK. Just felt right to do most of my business in Undercity not Orgrimmar, even though I was an orc. Plus Tirisfal is just one of the coolest locations in the game.
I wish they had put a selection of different kinds of undead and somehow make it work with the different classes cus generic human undead was a little boring in retrospect, wish I could have been an abomination rogue or something xD imagine a huge fatass abom sneaking up on you lolz XD
Tirisfal Glades and the undead will always have a special place in my heart. My first wow character was an undead hunter named Zonger, I think I got him to level 56 but stopped playing him a long time ago. Recently cancelled my subscription to play SWTOR but I genuinely feel bad and it's like WoW is calling me back, god I love this game
I remember coming here for the first time to get to The Scarlet Monastery Dungeon. I was a Human Healer and this place really gave the creeps hahahah especially when I saw for the first time, dead people hanged on the trees. I was genuinely shocked and freaked out hahahahah. Oh how I love the way WoW brings out all sorts of emotions for me. And I miss it soooo much.😭
Who are you? Or, at least... who were you? The cold stone that surrounds you gives no answers. Perhaps you were a hero, given a place in this grand crypt in honor of your sacrifice. Maybe you were a villain, ruthless in pursuit of some grand goal and put deeper beneath the earth than most so that you could be forgotten. Maybe you weren't all that special, just a person experienced in the arts of stealth, talented with a sword, devoted to prayer, or gifted with the arcane. Perhaps you werent even that, maybe you were just a humble villager who fought to protect his land till his dying breath. If there's one thing you can remember... it was the day you died. The dead came like a swarm, a tidal wave of unwilling destruction and missery, upon you and all that you held dear, and unjustly ripped it all from your hands... even your life. Cursing you to forever live within this disgusting mockery of what once was a body you felt proud of, like them. And if theres one thing you do know, its that this is a new begging. An opportunity. The wind rushing in from outside this tomb calls to you, beckoning you towards a future much grander than you ever imagined having. Adventure calls, and regardless of if its from curiosity, a thirst for vengeance, a need for justice, or a desire to leave your past behind you, you head its call. And so, in this new life, you take your first steps into Azeroth. Into a world... of warcraft.
This was such an amazing zone. My first char in vanilla was undead and I immediately thought how awesome everything looked because it was all connected to WC3.
started the game in 2005 with a human paladin got it to level 23 or 25 and decided to go horde, got meself an undead lock, i love/loved elwynn forest but tirisfal glades and the under city wins the cake for me , it has a very special place in my heart.... and i still play the game to this day,just farming mounts,pets,mogs
It was kinda scary and creepy with the all the sound FX and this bg music, but soon I realized I was playing a zombie man, suddenly I was relieved and felt happy ever since, good nostalgia from 2005 WoW
ahh good memories my dad showed me this game.. he played a undead priest i forgot what my first char was... but now i'm a undead warlock just dotting everything :D just running around.. i never had much dg and raids but just running around was fun And remember Patience, Discipline May The Dark Lady watch over you :D
I remember joining the Closed beta... Started in Tirisfal glades as an Undead warlock.... Holy crap the music of the game was 35% of the game... NEVER Joined a new game and got so strucked before!
That depth of moaning and humming just calls out the dead . I'd be a sneaky Forsaken rogue assassin if I had a chance to play & listen to music on this channel . Great job Everness ur amusing!
I remember when i was young, i hated tirisfal. it was dark, scary and sad but when i became older it crystallized to my favorite zone tbh ... the music the ambience the story etc just the good old days i like to remember (ps: rn i start a new undead character)
25:03 definetly not the Tirisfal Glades I knew when I was a level 5 undead in Burning Crusade, can somebody explains me ? It looks futuristic now. And Everness if you read this, please do more "undead" themes like the Brill, The Brill church, tavern or anything like that I LOVE undead ambiance :)
Interestingly enough, I disliked it a lot. I hated what they did to Brill in particular. I miss the old destroyed human buildings a lot. :( it feels way too Frankenstein to me now. They weren't super weird before.
Actually you can find this kind of Forsaken architecture in Northrend. With Cata they they just updated old human building so Forsaken could have their own unique architecture on their locations.
I do agree with jeremy, the newer forsaken architecture does remove all of the atmosphere from the zone. I get why they changed it since it would make sense for the undead to rebuild their home, however it does detract from the creepiness of the zone, and the feeling that you're experiencing the effects of the events of Warcraft 3.
Listened to this while reading the prologue for Before the Storm novel. Top choice. Blizzcon is almost here. In about 12 hours we'll know what shit's about to go down!
I will return to Classic Wow and be here soon, cannot wait :) Been 5 years since last played wow and want to return to my original version from whence it all began so long ago. LOVE this eerie place.
Just remember years ago. I was sick and skipped a day at school, sat with my blanket around me at my PC and made my first undead.

it's not tears just got quality content in the eye.
Just a bit of grave dust in my eyes s all..
leveling an undead mage after midnight in vanilla- oh nostalgia

Lol, im leveling a female undead mage right now in a vanilla Server. Such a peacefull sensation, Tirisfal Glades makes me stay at level 10 forever!
Oh the memories. Love this zone.
Yeahhhhhh that kind of feeling

My very first character was an Undead Priest, in 2008 at the tailend of Outlands. This zone has left an indelible image on my brain.

I can still hear the pit pat of my first toon on the cobblestone road 8 years ago
Oh my god the nostalgia is literally killing me inside. I want to go back in time :( :(
13-14 years ago i was in High School and a friend of mine is showing me a WOW gameplay on youtube. Went home got the game on my old pc and started playing TBC. Made my first undead rogue and i got hooked on the game so bad...
My wife asks me even to these days what i loved about being a teenager. I look back with a hard feeling in my chest , sometimes like i almost cry and i always say to her: Being home and playing WOW all day and night with my online friends , no worries at all , even rejecting girls because i had no time spending with them.
I still feel very relaxed and comforted by this music, like i could fall asleep forever xD
I started listening to this channel last year, while writing my dissertation. Got a first! Thank you Everness!
First faction, first race.. that leaves a mark.
And the music is still above all and will probably never be topped.
Haunting, fitting music and an absurd level of detail is what made that game special.
Game had recently released and after messing with a Dwarf Hunter and Rogue, I decided to try Undead because I loved their laugh, their eating what they kill for health, the air guitar animation and because I wanted to try a Warlock. It was some time in October. After basic questing and destroying worlds in low level PVP by just tossing DoTs, i stumbled across some ruins while exploring in PVE. After deeper exploration I accidentally got into the Under City and WOW! The Halloween decorations were out and it was incredible. This music and video take me back!
Reminds me of my wow beginnings. I startet playing during the halloween event 2007. Perfect 10th anniversary present for my forsaken mage. =D
Same story, forsaken priest though!
Idk who will read this but I still have a untouched level 60 undead mage from vanilla wow, decked out in dungeon and some different raids.
Thanks for the upload :)
I prefer the old Tirisfal Glades back from Vanilla. Mysterious and dark place but the newer sci fi undead structures changed the vibe completly. They first appear in Wotlk I think and become a thing in Cataclysm! I prefer the creepy human farm-house instead. Because of how they look old and worn out just like the Undead.
Yes, eastern/western plaguelands vibes.
They didn't appear in wrath. I'm currently playing wrath on a private server and it's the old one before cata changed all the zones and infrastructure
100%
@@kobe4212there are a handful of lore based previews to the major rollout of that stuff after the wrath gate. Especially in silverpine
Those 2 noobs running by at the start put a smile on my face. Peaceful naivety :)
Would have been fun to have seen names, if understandable why not!
The soundtrack for this zone is a masterpiece.
Indeed
8:00 listening to this while running back as ghost to your corpse because you pulled to much mobs on level 6
This has always been my favorite zone!
Damn it, this makes me want to install WoW again
Kind of tempting, just to strut around Tirisfal and Eversong again
I miss this dearly , tristfal glades , silverpine forest were 2 of my favorite areas in the game.
Ever wonder who was behind the keyboards of each player in the video. Lost in time......
28:16 I hear this ambience/music a lot in human Blacksmiths like the one in Goldshire. It's quite
a spooky ambience for just a common place.
4:23 "Nice level up!" Unknown Forsaken Warrior
@96supersh gratz!
The nostalgia can be good for a bit yes, it conjures up some great memories but it can also be sad and painful. We all crave to return to that place and time when we were innocent kids having fun. Unfortunately, once it's been and gone, it 's gone forever.
That doesn't mean we can't reminisce about the good times but just don't expect to go revisit there as with vanilla wow and that it will be the same it can never be the same cos you've grown and changed with time.
You will only be disappointed if you go back and your old memories will be dilluted. When i stopped playing wow I never wanted to go back to vanilla wow cos when I had left many years ago I had already lost my online wow friends. Wow became a cemetary and the tombstones had my friends' characters names on them. I mourned at their graves , i cried, really , i cried pitiful tears of a child who lost some of the best friends she ever had. Then I logged out in trisfal glades and never returned. You never forget your first love, so true for games and online friends too. And here i am listening to wow music 🥺😄😂
I love Tirisfal Glades, the Undercity, and the Ghostlands have all been favorite based on my deeply hidden dark side that favors things of this nature. No, it didn't make worship the devil or try any resurrections of the undead, but already believing in the paranormal and supernatural, those areas just settled me into my all-things-creepy zone. Playing WoW throughout October as an undead, I swear to God this area was just a big jumpscare waiting to happen because the music was suspenseful and then trickled out after the score's climax, forever freaking me out while playing the game. It's okay, though. @15:14 is also the music played when you're dead and when playing the game over the years and dying a lot....not because I sucked or anything....but, I would purposefully let the music go on and on as my mother yelled at me in the background to return back to the living because the music was bugging her. Funny, but definitely appealed to my creepy side hardcore.
My first character was a Human Paladin in Vanilla...I created it because my friend who introduced me to WoW needed more tank/healer for the guild. However it didn't sit well for me. I ditched that and created a Forsaken Warlock, best decision I made. Tirisfal glades is home.
just a few clicks on this one.. but im sure most people started their wow journey right here. it was just dark and misterious. that nostalgia just killed me.
Ah good times. I originally wanted to be an ogre but I didn't realise it was an april fools joke; so I wanted to be a goblin, which wasn't out then so I decided to be Undead. Note I didn't know what horror was back then.
It was my first experience with gothic too, I left the crypt and I was so scared of everything. So I logged off, but for some reason I wanted to go back on; despite being terrified. It was a new sensation that kept me playing; I was out of my comfort zone and every level I gained was me conqurering it.
Also there were moments that did scare me, like discovering the human face on the gnoll tent and the abominations being built in undercity; but it felt great to overcome something new I feared.
My first character was an undead rogue named “Ruh” for Rogue Undead Horde lol. Made him on my dads account back around burning crusade era. I remade him on my account I play now and will always be my favorite character.
This is so nostalgic for me. There was something about the creepy and horror in WoW’s world that’s always been so alluring to me. I remember my first character was a human and I got a taste for the horror when I visited duskwood too early. Then later on exploring tristifal glades and that whole northern part of the map I loved! Shadow fang keep was one of my favorite dungeons!
Exploring this zone as my first character, undead player was bliss for me I think.
my first character was undead mage, i Love this place so much
Really loving reading WoW short stories to these. Just now the forsaken short story from Folk & Fairy Tales.
"Death offers a fresh perspective on life. All we have here ar our memories and the choices that brought us here. What we believe makes us who we are, _for better or for worse._ "
It does remind me of Grimm fairy tales, the atmosphere I mean :)
I have so much nostalgia for Tirisfal, man. I spent so much time there as my Death Knight during WotLK. Just felt right to do most of my business in Undercity not Orgrimmar, even though I was an orc. Plus Tirisfal is just one of the coolest locations in the game.
I loved that I could see players running around at the start of the video.
What joy is there in this curse?!
Best zone in the game. Best race in the game. Coming for someone who's played an Undead for 14 years.
I wish they had put a selection of different kinds of undead and somehow make it work with the different classes cus generic human undead was a little boring in retrospect, wish I could have been an abomination rogue or something xD imagine a huge fatass abom sneaking up on you lolz XD
Beware the living...
What are we if not slaves to this torment?
Lol
I have to make Undead as my first character in Classic I just love this zone and I want this to be my home.
My all time favourite ambience
🎃 Happy Hallow’s End Everyone 🎃
From Frozen Throne to WoW, this zone has the best continuing lore
Tirisfal Glades and the undead will always have a special place in my heart. My first wow character was an undead hunter named Zonger, I think I got him to level 56 but stopped playing him a long time ago. Recently cancelled my subscription to play SWTOR but I genuinely feel bad and it's like WoW is calling me back, god I love this game
How did you make an undead hunter as that class is not possible for the forsakens.. 🤔 ? Yes I'm late lol
@@stephaneprivate1013 23/11/2010 they released the hunter class for undeads when cataclysm launched. :)
I remember coming here for the first time to get to The Scarlet Monastery Dungeon. I was a Human Healer and this place really gave the creeps hahahah especially when I saw for the first time, dead people hanged on the trees. I was genuinely shocked and freaked out hahahahah. Oh how I love the way WoW brings out all sorts of emotions for me. And I miss it soooo much.😭
How is a tragic, fallen castle in the middle of a dank forest filled with rotting animals, humans, and elves my happy place?
"Dark Lady watch over you."
подгород - the undercity is THE BEST!!! thank U, dear friend
Omg!!! My first character was Forsaken! Edgy best race haha
Who are you? Or, at least... who were you? The cold stone that surrounds you gives no answers.
Perhaps you were a hero, given a place in this grand crypt in honor of your sacrifice. Maybe you were a villain, ruthless in pursuit of some grand goal and put deeper beneath the earth than most so that you could be forgotten. Maybe you weren't all that special, just a person experienced in the arts of stealth, talented with a sword, devoted to prayer, or gifted with the arcane. Perhaps you werent even that, maybe you were just a humble villager who fought to protect his land till his dying breath.
If there's one thing you can remember... it was the day you died. The dead came like a swarm, a tidal wave of unwilling destruction and missery, upon you and all that you held dear, and unjustly ripped it all from your hands... even your life. Cursing you to forever live within this disgusting mockery of what once was a body you felt proud of, like them.
And if theres one thing you do know, its that this is a new begging. An opportunity. The wind rushing in from outside this tomb calls to you, beckoning you towards a future much grander than you ever imagined having. Adventure calls, and regardless of if its from curiosity, a thirst for vengeance, a need for justice, or a desire to leave your past behind you, you head its call.
And so, in this new life, you take your first steps into Azeroth. Into a world... of warcraft.
This was such an amazing zone. My first char in vanilla was undead and I immediately thought how awesome everything looked because it was all connected to WC3.
The ambiance is so well crafted to be so bleakly anti humanity, I instantly chose undead warlock as my first character.
Same here. Awesome memories of an awesome atmosphere
It’s almost that time of year again 👻
started the game in 2005 with a human paladin got it to level 23 or 25 and decided to go horde, got meself an undead lock, i love/loved elwynn forest but tirisfal glades and the under city wins the cake for me , it has a very special place in my heart.... and i still play the game to this day,just farming mounts,pets,mogs
My first character was an orc warlock. I walked him to the undead zone and levelled him up. Amazing !!
It was kinda scary and creepy with the all the sound FX and this bg music, but soon I realized I was playing a zombie man, suddenly I was relieved and felt happy ever since, good nostalgia from 2005 WoW
Added to Playlist for Nether in Minecraft, brilliant!
damn.. I just noticed I have 20 stack of linen cloth! I love how your camera is in real time! TY
started this game in 2005.. Forsaken Warlock.
At 10:00 someone had their grinding immortalized.
ahh good memories
my dad showed me this game.. he played a undead priest
i forgot what my first char was... but now i'm a undead warlock just dotting everything :D
just running around.. i never had much dg and raids but just running around was fun
And remember Patience, Discipline
May The Dark Lady watch over you :D
I remember joining the Closed beta... Started in Tirisfal glades as an Undead warlock.... Holy crap the music of the game was 35% of the game... NEVER Joined a new game and got so strucked before!
say what you will about the game in it's current state. the music, ambiance and art style of wow has always been top notch.
miss the good ol' days.
i think its in a pretty good state with dragonflight
Huge fan of Forsaken Architecture. Wish there were more of it.
YES! Please give us more this week :*
It's ECTS-week and I need more of your awesome videos.
Thanks in advance, loyal subscriber.
I love listening to this compilation while working. If only I could be collecting gloom weed for Gordo instead. :(
54:00, Memories
This was my all time favorite zone back in the day.
That depth of moaning and humming just calls out the dead .
I'd be a sneaky Forsaken rogue assassin if I had a chance to play & listen to music on this channel . Great job Everness
ur amusing!
I remember when i was young, i hated tirisfal. it was dark, scary and sad but when i became older it crystallized to my favorite zone tbh ... the music the ambience the story etc just the good old days i like to remember (ps: rn i start a new undead character)
Finally! My favorite!!!
You're welcome!
I just put in some Bose ear buds. Man there's some bass in this soundtrack!
Muy buena recopilación amigo, hace mucho que la estaba buscando. Por la Horda, por Lady Sylvanas!!!!
Excellent job in putting this together.
It makes me want to go back
25:03 definetly not the Tirisfal Glades I knew when I was a level 5 undead in Burning Crusade, can somebody explains me ? It looks futuristic now. And Everness if you read this, please do more "undead" themes like the Brill, The Brill church, tavern or anything like that I LOVE undead ambiance :)
Trent Stamm A whole lot of stuff got revamped in Cata
You should see it now. . . on second thought, no.
that's dark, never noticed people hanging at 6:00
Kayla Laverdiere nice catch, can’t believe I never saw that before
Wandered for dozens of hours here and never noticed
I would always stop to look at those lol
I really enjoy Forsaken architecture, which was shown with Cataclysm.
Interestingly enough, I disliked it a lot. I hated what they did to Brill in particular. I miss the old destroyed human buildings a lot. :( it feels way too Frankenstein to me now. They weren't super weird before.
Actually you can find this kind of Forsaken architecture in Northrend. With Cata they they just updated old human building so Forsaken could have their own unique architecture on their locations.
I do agree with jeremy, the newer forsaken architecture does remove all of the atmosphere from the zone. I get why they changed it since it would make sense for the undead to rebuild their home, however it does detract from the creepiness of the zone, and the feeling that you're experiencing the effects of the events of Warcraft 3.
Warcraft have been long ago before WoW. Now they are not just army of undead. They are Forsaken, strong, high-tech faction.
Completely agree mate
Eerily calming
Nostalgia hits so hard ...
Listened to this while reading the prologue for Before the Storm novel. Top choice.
Blizzcon is almost here. In about 12 hours we'll know what shit's about to go down!
Its so cool how they worked the start of ghosts 1 into the shadowlands login music to stick with the theme of death
one of my favorite zones
I will return to Classic Wow and be here soon, cannot wait :) Been 5 years since last played wow and want to return to my original version from whence it all began so long ago. LOVE this eerie place.
