Very nice video! I like how you covered the overarching development all the way from Vanilla, which matches my memories of the early days too. - Acrona
I used to play WoW on Argent Dawn some years ago for quite a bit. It was some of the best time I've ever had in an MMO and I miss those days dearly. My main was Marf Mountainhammer, in case anyone is familiar
I used to be on Emerald Dream US it was RPPVP and I fucking loved it. I was in one of the best guilds on there server that would host huge events, we'd raid enemy faction cities, we always answered guild calls to defend our cities from horde attacks, we had awesome RP raiding. Everyone knew us. Then all the RP in emerald dream died, guild disbanded, and ED became dead. At least it feels that waym the servers got sharded and cities were empty. I ended having to move to Moonguard to keep RPing, but I miss RPPVP, it's non existent on MG. But I'll always remember the old days fondly
8:25 Activity on the Horde? yea, that used to be the case prior to Shadowlands. But nowadays, not even 5 people are ever spotted in the RP areas in Orgrimmar or Silvermoon, and those that are, generally closeted guilds not wanting to interact much with non-guild members. Horde RP has massively declined much thanks to the Drama regarding the PCU community, the Furry shit that happened with Kerti's Caravan and the fact alliance got pretty elves as well.
Not to sound condescending, and honestly 3-4 years ago I would've been totally in agreement with you. But imagine you have the greatest guild, filled with the best writers, storytellers, and dungeonmasters the server can possibly offer. The caveat being, none of these players have the passion to take initiative to create any content. Is the guild going to survive? Of course not. Same goes for RP hubs it's pretty simple. Initiative is king, anything else is pretty much a luxury
I used to play on AD EU durning legion until the end of Shadowlands, and trust me. I look everywhere where i could for some fun RP's, but at some point i've simply stopped. Maybe i was not looking much deeper or something, but in Legion also was focused on raiding... Everytime when i appeared in Goldshire, i quickly wanted leave, because the mess ongoing there is eh... Eh i saw some roleplaying in Cathedral Square in Stormwind, but it was mainly like... Sitting on stairs before cathedral, and that's all i saw.
I have played retail wow and classic for some years. I had no idea there was such an amazing thing going on on argent dawn! You could make a series with the server's most important events through the ages if there is enough content!
I was never an RPer but it was still my favorite server. Just seeing other players in the most random places in the world was so refreshing. It felt like it was lived in rather than a huge empty game where people only hang out in stormwind
Bro, I would RP on Argent Dawn, I swear, but so far I've been ignored by like 90% of the people. I've joined the Argent Dawn discord server to look for upcoming events and there's barely anything going on there. I would mostly like to RP on horde(atm they seemed to be a bit friendlier tbf) but I can also RP on alliance(I tried RPing in Stormwind but got brutally ignored). And yes, I do have TRP 3 and the extended features. If you have any tips on how to find people to RP with, especially finding a community or guild for that (prefferably horde), I'd give that a shot.
Not to shill my own videos, but perhaps checking out my last might help abit, im going to do deeper dives into AD on this channel in the future + streams so you might be able to see something through that
@@Galfordtv So I've checked your earlier video like you recommended, and I can say I haven't done any of those mistakes (except having the Ashkandur as a transmog, but I'll change it to something more common for Dracthyrs, since I was roleplaying a Dracthyr).
calling "new aspects" as losers is just bad as they are decent if you read all novels and judging anylore without it is like calling sauron worst villain ever as he never showed up in the LotR trilogy novels, just because you are uniformed about further backstory doesn't make it bad.
People saying Horde rp is dead should look around a bit more instead of yelling in trade chat, waiting for people to react. Show us rp instead of demanding we show you. You might be surprised what happens in Orgrimmar on a thursday night bud. I see active folk all the time, and regulars too. So all the "Horde rp is dead" talk is just bullshit.
Something which annoy big pvp battle really see one but i on us realms if went have grind all mounts tmog again some them really hard unobtainable anymore. Also remake my pally and kul trin rouge. Argent dawn what pretty cool wish mega sever both horde and alliance on us. Closest thing to big group of wymrest horde in cathedral once but because of was sh didn't participate cause pc was sh at time rp or pure pvp think might rp battle wasn't 100% sure. But still would cool cause don't sh often love see that. Still pretty much noob usually hang around stormwind small talk ic hang few friends in other guilds. That are better in rp lol
I recently hosted a 1 week long Tournament event in Ironforge, Argent Dawn EU. It was really fun!

Many thanks Acrona!
I've been on AD since Cata, and Horde is just absolutely dead. It's sad more than anything else.

I've started playing on argent dawn to farm some gold. I love that server. It feels like a community back in the day.
I happen to run a popular armorsmithing store at the Dalaran Market, engaging with the community has been a blast! AD is a lovely server!

As an AD RPer: ...Idk what to say... uhmm.. REPRESENT!
