I remember exploring the Crypts while drunk back in 2005. I knew it was an unfinished zone, but every room I entered, I half expected there to be a Level 200 elite ghost that would one-shot me.

There really is no feeling like discovering one of these places back when Vanilla was live, instead of KZitem videos, it was the word of mouth that got you access to these places, I'll never forget watching over my brother's shoulder as he and some guildies spent hours getting access to the crypts, Old IF, etc. The feeling of being in a massive world, but being in a special place for explorers eyes only, it felt like Magic.

Honestly I was watching KZitem videos on hidden zones back during vanilla. It’s how I found the cheat to get to menethil harbor from loch modam. I would say all these secrets people are talking about now were well known in 2005-2006. KZitem just wasn’t as popular so not everyone knew about it.

I remember discovering Newman's Landing shortly after I started playing. I was playing a human paladin and got the paladin quest to speak to the guy in IF. I had no idea about the tram between the two cities so instead I decided to go to Westfall and try swiming along the coast and maybe i"d be able to climb the mountains into Dun Morogh. And while swimming in the ocean trying to get from SW to IF as a new player I discoverd Newman's Landing and it's always been a memory *edit* It's cool that In SoD, Paladin's need to go to Newman's Landing for a rune! Kind of cool I got to go there on both my Paladin's one intentional one unintentional

I played WoW from March of 2005 through June of 2022. Our guild was a Horde guild named Obsidian Spur, originally on Sargeras up through Mists of Pandaria, and then we moved the guild to Thrall where it still resides. My name was Wretchedmist, undead priest and GM of our guild. Looking back now, I feel extremely fortunate to be part of that player base who played the original Vanilla WoW. I know all of the locations in this video, and it really made me feel good to go back in time here and relive these places through your video. I remember when we first went to Alcaz island and went into the prison area. We found King Varian Wrynn in there, and if I recall he was a yellow NPC back then. I think we went there with one of our rogues, which makes sense with the Defias Brotherhood quest chain. I still have the screenshots somewhere from 2005-2006 or whenever that was. This was a time when fantasy was a key part of WoW. Going slow, stopping and looking, theory crafting, exploring the world, imagining, being present. The game was way, way more about living the fantasy in conjunction with the dungeons, raids, pvp, farming, etc. This element of WoW no longer exists, nor has it for many years. It's much less about guilds and community, and that's not just due to the game's age, but intentional game design changes made by the company over years. Death by a thousand cuts. It brings sadness to my heart about the game I once loved so much. I don't know if I'll ever come back. If I do, it will be as a casual. Raiding - especially mythic raiding - had become so tedious, requiring immense energy, effort, and time as guild master and raid leader. Extreme boss tuning, hundreds of wipes, scripted CD usage, 10-15-minute fights, countless one-shot mechanics and raid-wiping mechanics, mandatory high parsing requirements, high player turnover, the influence of e-sports, the list goes on and on. I tip my hat to all players who are having a blast in Classic WoW and Season of Discovery. You're playing the best iterations of WoW (outside of original Vanilla) that create the opportunities for this community, guild, and fantasy again.

From what I understood back in Vanilla was the Crypts were a homage to the movie Big Trouble in Little China, the scene of the hell of the upside down sinners. The dancing troll village is still in the game and easily accessible. Most of the classic hidden locations are still in retail and finished.
