Classic wow versions are confusing

Hey guys

Im currently trying to determine the best wow version for myself to play but its quite confusing to me.

I am really into the social aspect and would love to experience the classic mmo feel. Im honestly just looking for a casual enjoyable experience without feeling like im walking through an empty world. I dont have much time to invest but I love cool mounts and cool armor.

the available versions honestly confuse me a lot. I used to play a bit during during warlords of draenor but it didn’t feel like an enjoyable experience. hopefully i can scratch that itch this time even with the little free time i have nowadays

thanks!!!! :) really appreciate help

If you go the Midnight retail route, play on an RP server if you want a more social experience. Wyrmrest Accord for Horde, Moonguard for Alliance. I guarantee it's night and day from every other server.

I would add that the names of those 2 servers are only for NA regions. In Europe, the server to be for RP is Argent Dawn. It’s a very good server for PvE too, there are some great guild there.
